Charlie did not expect that Rachel would specially prepare a suit for him.Just as he was still wondering about it, Yule, who was aside, smiled and said, “Your Aunt Golding was afraid that you would not bring a suit with you when you come to Eastcliff. Therefore, she specially asked the best tailor-made suit master from London to make one for you.”Charlie thanked her, “Thank you, Aunt Golding.”Rachel smiled and said, “You’re most welcome! I gave the master an estimation of your size for the suit, and I do not know whether it will fit you or not. Hurry up and try it on.”At this time, Quinn, who was wearing a one-piece nightgown, also came out of the room and yawned as she smiled and said, “Brother Charlie, the suit that my mother ordered for you is especially dashing! It is said that many prime ministers and presidents from Europe and North America are that master’s regular customers! You should go and try it on!”It was difficult for Charlie to refuse such kindness and so, he f

However, she also knew that she would have to hold up even if she could not do so. After all, whether her mother would be able to support herself in the future would depend on her. At this moment, Helena suddenly received a phone call from her mother, who was in Northern Europe. As soon as the call was connected, her mother spoke from the other end of the line, “Helena, the royal family has just notified me that your grandma is currently suffering from multiple organ failures and is currently in a severe coma. She could pass away at any time…”Helena was instantly shocked, “How did it deteriorate so quickly?!”“I’m not sure.” Helena’s mother spoke up, “I only heard that the situation deteriorated drastically, and it is now completely out of control. The doctor said that it will be impossible for her to wake up, and it will only be a matter of time before she passes away. If it is fast, it will take up to two or three days, and even if it is slow, it will not exceed a week.”Helena

Helena did not expect that her own cousin sister would suddenly become so heartless.She subconsciously blurted out, “If my grandmother were to really die before my engagement, how can my engagement ceremony possibly be held as scheduled?! If word about this gets out, the public would not only be criticizing me, but they will also be criticizing the entire royal family!”Olivia, who was on the other end of the line, said coldly, “Don’t worry. I will try and make sure that she survives for the next three days. Even if she were to really die within these three days, I will not release the news to the public. I will wait for your engagement first before announcing it to the public.”Helena could not help but scold angrily, “How can you do that?! What do you take Grandma for? A tool controlled by you?!”Olivia spoke sternly, “Helena! You’d better remember this! Her life and death is not the most important matter right now! Your marriage to the Wade family is the most important matter!

Helena was basically on the verge of collapse at this point!It was only at this time that Helena finally understood that this was the actual reason why the royal family had asked her to come to Oskia earlier to participate in the Wade family’s ancestor worship ceremony!‘So, Olivia had already started planning this a long time ago!’‘She wants to separate me and my mother so that she can use my mother to threaten me and force me to give in. Olivia, you’re truly the devil!’Helena was furious, and she immediately yelled, “Olivia, you cannot do this! I will never marry Felix if you do not send my mother to Oskia!” Olivia said disdainfully, “It’s up to you. Anyway, my mother is currently monitoring and keeping an eye on your mother now. She has no chance to leave the palace at all. If you refuse to marry Felix as promised, your mother will disappear completely from this world, then. No one will know where she went, and no one will even know if she’s dead or alive!” As she spoke o

There was still no response in the room at this time.Felix was a little suspicious, and he could not help but increase the strength of his hand. He slammed his hand harder on the door and shouted, “Helena, are you there?”There was still no movement in the room.Just then, the door of the room next door opened, and two young women came out. One of them was Caucasian, and the other looked like an Oskian.Felix recognized them. These two women were the attendants whom Olivia had sent here with Helena.So, he spoke up and asked the Oskian girl, “Where is your princess?”The Oskian girl said, “She’s in her room.”“How is that possible?” Felix frowned and said, “I’ve been knocking on the door for a long time now, but there is no response at all. Could it be that she has gone out?”“That should not be the case.” The girl spoke up, “The princess will usually tell us if she wants to go out.”Immediately after that, the Oskian girl also came over and knocked on Helena’s door as she sh

Felix subconsciously said, “It’s okay. I’ll just stay and watch here. I will not cause any delay to the both of you…”The Oskian girl replied offhandedly as she shouted, “We need to take off her clothes to defibrillate her! Aren’t you familiar with the concept that you should not be looking at something that is not consistent with propriety?! Hurry up and go out!”Felix had no choice but to leave the room.At this time, inside the room, one of the girls continued performing chest compressions on Helena whereas the other girl prepared the defibrillator before ripping Helena’s pajamas open as she said, “The defibrillator is ready!”“Okay!” The Oskian girl blurted out, “I will count to three. After three seconds, I will disengage my hands, and you will defibrillate her immediately!”“Okay!”The Oskian girl continued performing compressions on Helena as she shouted, “One, two, three! Defibrillation!”After saying that, she retracted her hands as fast as lightning. The other girl the

Although she had only been unconscious for a few minutes, to Helena, it seemed as though she had spent a century in the dark!So, at the moment when she woke up, she was breathing heavily as if she had already used up all of her oxygen after diving into the bottom of the sea and finally coming up at the very last minute. Immediately afterward, her vision returned, and she gradually recovered all of her other senses.When she saw the two people in front of her, Helena immediately realized that it was her two attendants who had saved her life. They had both received very good first aid training, and the reason why they had come here with her this time was also to ensure her safety. After that, Helena felt another sharp pain in her heart. When she looked down, she saw that the Oskian girl was still holding the syringe with the epinephrine in her hand. Helena was extremely nervous as she asked, “You… You gave me an epinephrine injection?”The Oskian girl replied with a very apolo

The first responders did not expect that there would be two experts here, but at this time, they also did not care to ask them too much about it. They quickly called for a few people to carry Helena onto the stretcher. Felix was flustered, and he felt that there was nothing much that he could do at this time. So, he could only hurry up and call his grandfather, Jeremiah.As soon as the call was connected, Felix hurriedly reported this matter to Jeremiah.When Jeremiah heard about this, he was shocked and stunned for a moment. He was afraid that Helena would die in Oskia at this time. He hurriedly said to Felix, “Tell the first responders to send her to the Wade Group Affiliated Hospital directly. They have the best cardiovascular department in the country! We will rush over there immediately too!”It was only then that Felix recalled that their own hospital was also very authoritative in this aspect. So, he quickly said to the first responders, “Hurry up and send her to the Wade G

"Five hundred grand?"Mick chuckled. "Well, the sculpture looks Renaissance, and the craftsmanship as well as the material are all ideal. It would sell for up to two million in an auction, while established antique traders like us could offer up to a million. So, why the lowball?"Bill sighed. "I won't lie—it belonged to my old man, who just croaked this afternoon. But you see, he left a will stating that every antique in the house would be given to my brother… Since he's playing favorites, I thought I had to get something for myself.""That's why I quietly sneaked this baby out without anyone else knowing and am trying to sell it quickly to change my own circumstances. You don't have to tell me how many millions it's worth—I'm not that greedy. Give me five hundred grand, and it's yours."Mick shrugged as he shot back, "If it's as you say and your old man intended for your brother to have it, the fact that you sneaked it out here makes this theft. Do you think I'd buy stolen proper

It was half past six, and the skies were darkening when a figure hurried into Antique Street, heading straight toward the center—to Vintage Deluxe.Mick Crane, the manager, was holding the fort with some of his employees, and there were some guests window shopping there as well. As Mick asked the employees to assist the guests, he waited anxiously for Billy—Zachary's henchman.Nonetheless, a certain figure rushed inside within minutes, asking eagerly as he entered, "Is the manager in? Do you still buy antiques?""Yes, and yes!" Mick exclaimed as he approached Billy enthusiastically, asking, "May I ask what you're planning to sell?"Billy looked around before sneakily holding up a parcel wrapped in red cloth, carefully lifting a corner to reveal an edge so that Mick could see.Then, he promptly lowered the cloth again, whispering, "This is the good stuff. I'm just not sure if you have the money to buy it."Mick grinned. "What are you saying? If it's something Vintage Deluxe coul

Jacob chuckled. "Can't tell you right now. But I will once it's done.""Well, have you decided when we're going to Dubai?" Elaine quickly pressed.Jacob said, "I'd have to wait until tonight to see if this deal works, but we're leaving first thing tomorrow. I'll get the tickets first, and we will be staying at the Burj Al-Arab that I told you about. People are always saying how amazing it is on the internet every day, seeing how luxurious the seven-star hotel is, but I'll be the judge of that."Elaine was overjoyed to hear that. "That's amazing! And I was just thinking we can't go sooner! Go about your business, then. I'll pack our luggage right away."Jacob chuckled smugly. "Don't pack so much, though. Just stick to the necessities, since we can get the rest over there!""Alright!" Elaine exclaimed, beside herself in excitement. "Alright, you hurry up and get your thing done over there. I'll start packing now!"After hanging up, Elaine called Charlie, who was in Champs Elys Reso

As Zachary agreed to do a favor for Vintage Deluxe's Mick Crane in passing, he and Jacob agreed to meet up at 7pm at the car park by Antique Street.He first took Jacob back to the Calligraphy and Painting Association and called Billy, one of his boys whom he thought was smarter than the rest, giving him the gist of the plan and telling him to familiarize himself with the script.Then, he took the sculpture back to Heaven Springs and met up with Billy in office, telling Billy what to do in finer detail and making sure he committed everything to memory.Zachary's strength as a judge of character certainly proved itself—Billy had never done anything like this before, but he took to the plan like fish to water. He committed the script to memory soon enough, and he was flawless.Once he made sure that Billy was fine, Zachary called Mick.As soon as Mick answered, he immediately asked, "Hello, Mr. Evans. How is that thing we talked about going?"Zachary chuckled. All the arrangements

Zachary continued, "Why do you think casinos are always making a profit? It's exactly because no matter how unassuming a guest is the first time, they would be allowed to win a couple of hands, making a little profit.""And suddenly, they would think that they are the chosen one, destined to win against all odds and always come out triumphant! Once such radical, blind confidence hits them, every last bit of his money would be lost to the casino!""At that point, you can get anything from them—their house, their wife, their children… hell, they'd be willing to die if you'd just let them gamble again!"Turning toward Jacob with a grin, Zachary then asked, "So, with all the points I made and that sculpture you're holding… Do you still think Raymond wouldn't fall for it?"Jacob laughed out loud. "Oh, talk about a plan within a plan! No one would ever see it coming! Raymond Cole is so screwed!"Zachary smiled and nodded. "That's why there's no reason to rush—I'll arrange a man to get r

As soon as they drove out of the village, Jacob asked Zachary eagerly, "So, when do you think we should make our move? I can't wait!"Zachary didn't hesitate, "Let's do it today. It's better than waiting! I'll get someone reliable to bring this to Treasure Measure and get him interested. I'm sure that since he has just returned to Antique Street, he'll need a hot deal to generate hype and make himself known. That's why I'm sure he'll take this sculpture."Jacob nodded repeatedly as he chuckled. "I think so too. Today is definitely best since I'll be going to Dubai soon and probably leaving once I'm done with this. Once you get this settled by the end of today, I'll get tickets for the flight tomorrow!"Zachary grinned. "Don't worry, chief. We will definitely get it settled today…"He trailed off for a moment before continuing, "Still, you should be a little patient. We should do this in the evening—at the second just before Raymond Cole closes shop.""But why?" Jacob asked in curi

Jacob was naturally gleeful that he could get the late medieval bronze sculpture along with its base. Right after he wired the agreed upon ninety-eight grand to Mr. Cardensky, he was already imagining how Raymond would buy it from him for several hundred grand.On the other hand, once Mr. Cardensky received the transfer, he saw the name on the account: Jacob Wilson.He was left perplexed—wasn't that man's last name Montague? Who was this Jacob Wilson?Still, he didn't worry about it too much since most antique hustlers preferred to work with anonymity and therefore, using a different name was perfectly normal.He then carefully wrapped up the bronze sculpture before passing it Jacob, asking politely, "Would you happen to have any other requests, Mr. Montague? I have plenty of other items here if you'd permit me to give an introduction."Jacob shook his head, "Just this sculpture will do. I'm not fully confident in your work either since this is our first deal, so I'm just trying i

Jacob asked, "Then, what would this sculpture be worth if it was genuine?"Mr. Cardensky thought about it. "Well, there are standards when it comes to Renaissance relics, but with something this exquisite, it'd definitely be auctionable for one or two million—and that's the conservative estimate.""How much would you sell it to me for?" Jacob then asked."Thirty percent of the market price," Mr. Cardensky quickly replied. "As I've said, the conservative estimate for this one is around one to two million, so we will set the price with the median estimate value at 1.5 million. And thirty percent means 450 grand."Jacob shook his head right away. "No, no, no… that's too expensive. What if I end up unable to sell it, on top of that?"In his mind, while he could barely accept that pricing, he still needed Raymond to be able to afford it if he wanted to swindle Raymond for twice the money.Mr. Cardensky quickly chuckled, "Oh, Mr. Montague—now you're being too serious. In this business,

"Okay!"Mr. Cardensky smiled and pointed at a nearby farmyard. "There's our workshop—the good stuff is all in there. Allow me to take you there!"The farmyard seemed uninteresting at first glance, but Mr. Cardensky soon led them to the stables and brushed off the straws covering the floor, revealing a plank laid flat on the ground.Mr. Cardensky then lifted it, revealing a passage below—they had dug a cellar into the ground beneath, with the stables as an entry point.As Jacob followed Mr. Cardensky down the cellar, he exclaimed in awe, "Your operation is definitely big, digging such a huge cellar!"Mr. Cardensky smiled humbly. "Anyone working in the business would have sustained their losses before. In the end, we're all folk of humble origins, starting out with raiding tombs or excavating artifacts. Just digging a cellar is really nothing."As they conversed, they cleared the stairs and arrived at the main hall.It was certainly a hall as it was around a hundred square meters,
