Twenty minutes later, the Concorde set off in the Eastcliff night sky as it flew toward Northern Europe at great speed.What lay before Charlie and Helena was an eight-thousand-kilometer long flight path. It would take at least nine hours for an ordinary airliner to fly there, but it would only take the Concorde four hours to reach Oslo City, the capital of Northern Europe.At the same time, a video quickly gained prominent attention in Northern Europe’s short video application. The woman in the video was Helena Elliot, who was known as the most beautiful woman in Northern Europe.Although Helena had been deprived of the right to inherit the throne, she was still the most popular and beloved member of the royal family in the entire Northern Europe.That was why she had more than eight million fans on the short video application. The Northern European countries also only had a population of more than six million people, and at least half of them were Helena’s fans.Helena wou

Richard was still in a state of shock as he said, “Fortunately, I reacted quickly! I ended the voicemail message as soon as you mentioned the word ‘kill’!”Olivia let out a long breath and rubbed her chest as she ground her teeth and cursed, “That b*tch, Helena! My sanity has been ruined because of her!”Richard did not say anything. Instead, he watched Helena’s video with his wife first before he spoke up and said, “What is Helena planning to do by coming back this time? Could it be that she is trying to rescue and take her mother away?”Olivia’s mother, Winona, spoke up at this time and said, “Helena is not a fool, and she should know that it is impossible for her to find her mother’s whereabouts based on her abilities. So, in my opinion, it is very likely that Helena is trying to show us goodwill and take the opportunity to ease the relationship with us by coming back this time.” Olivia said coldly, “I don’t care what her purpose is, but since she dares to return to Northern Eu

Olivia, who was extremely furious, eventually accepted her mother’s suggestion.This was because although she was very angry, she was very clear about the current situation as well.Since Helena had already caught her by surprise, it was very difficult for Olivia to have the opportunity to counteract now. The only way was to wait for Helena to arrive and use Helena’s mother’s life to blackmail her so that Helena would not do the same thing or make the same mistakes again from now on.When her father, Richard, saw that Olivia had finally calmed down a little, he said, “Olivia, since Helena is coming here on a Concorde, I’m guessing that she will arrive at the airport in the evening. So, I suggest that you go to the airport with Walliot in advance to pick her up. At that time, you can use the royal convoy to receive her and take her back to the palace to keep her in check as soon as she gets off the plane.” “I know!” Olivia said coldly, “I will have to control her whole trip in or

As she spoke, Olivia sneered and said, “If that happens, we can still condemn Aman Ramovic severely and force him to pay another pension to us. Otherwise, we will make the news of his abuse of the royal princess public! I think that we should be able to make him give us another five hundred million euros at that time, right? After all, it’s not easy for the royal family to raise Helena and bring her up. Therefore, it is only reasonable for me to ask him for five hundred million euros as compensation!” Richard looked at his daughter and gave her a thumbs-up as he praised her, “Olivia, you’re really a world genius! The royal family will definitely usher in a spurt of development after you inherit the throne!”Olivia nodded and said coldly, “The whole of Europe is paying attention to the news of my marriage to Walliot. Many of the other European royal families, nobles, and rich and powerful people will be coming to attend our wedding. I originally did not plan to invite Aman Ramovic, a

Meanwhile in the hangar, Olivia, who was dressed incomparably beautifully as she wore a Chanel dress, was holding onto a young Caucasian man’s arm as she watched the Concorde getting closer and closer.The young Caucasian man was the eldest son of the Rothschild’s collateral family, Walliot Rothschild. Walliot’s family was rooted in Denmark, across the sea from the four northern European countries.Over the years, Walliot’s family had been hoping to join the second level of the Rothschild family ladder and so, they had been keeping a low profile as they lay in wait.The overall structure within the Rothschild family was similar to that of the Wade family, but it was even more cumbersome when compared to the Wade family at the actual execution and implementation end. The Rothschild family was a veteran capital family, and they had started out in finance and banking. So, the allocation of their internal resources was extremely strict.The Rothschild family’s lifeline was in the h

Helena’s two attendants were Olivia’s henchmen.However, Olivia had always thought that Helena did not know about this. But this time, when she saw that Helena had not brought her two attendants back with her and since they had not reported any changes to Olivia in advance, Olivia realized that Helena might have already found out about the two attendants’ true identity.Helena played dumb at this point, and she said casually, “I left the both of them back in Oskia so that they could work together with the Wade family’s planner to prepare the details for the engagement party as well as the wedding.”Helena’s words might sound fine to outsiders, but Olivia knew very well that Helena was just talking nonsense!If it was really as what she had said, Olivia’s two subordinates would definitely have reported the situation to her as soon as possible, then.But now, Olivia had not received any news from them yet. So, this proved that Helena must have the two of her subordinates under her c

Walliot was immediately furious as soon as he heard Charlie’s words, and he said, “Charlie Wade, your words are a little too arrogant, right?!”Charlie smiled and asked, “Is it arrogant? Why do I not feel it?”As he spoke, Charlie then added, “Even if the Wade family has suffered heavy losses, we still have trillions of dollars worth of assets. Some families might not have experienced such heavy losses, but they still do not have as much money as the Wade family. So, what could they be if not garbage?”Charlie looked at the both of them, and he paused for a moment before he ridiculed them, “Look, even if half of the water in the ocean is gone, it is still an ocean. However, the water in a mud pit will still be a mud pit even if it is filled to the brim.”The expression on Olivia and Walliot’s faces instantly became very ugly.Olivia knew the strength of the Northern European royal family very well. Even if she were to count all of their cash, antiques, real estate, foreign investm

Helena subconsciously asked, “Who is this other friend that you speak of?”Olivia laughed and said, “This friend of mine is a Russian oligarch, Aman Ramovic.” Helena had already learnt that Olivia intended to sell her off to Aman Ramovic from her two attendants. So, when she heard this, she was stunned in her heart. However, she tried her best to control her emotions, and she pretended to be surprised as she asked, “Olivia, when did you become friends with such a vulgar person?”Olivia squinted her eyes to size Helena up as she said, “Helena, didn’t anyone mention anything about Aman Ramovic to you?”Helena shook her head blankly and said, “No one has mentioned him. Why?” When Helena had left Olivia’s two subordinates behind and come back alone, Olivia knew that her subordinates identities had already been exposed.Now, Olivia did not know whether her two subordinates had already told Helena about her plan either.This was because earlier, Olivia had already authorized her t

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,

Zachary nodded repeatedly. "Mr. Montague? Very well!""Yes!" Jacob grinned smugly. "Longer last names are simply better—it just sounds so authoritative."With that agreed upon, both men alighted, where the master was waiting nearby.Seeing them get off, he hurried over to them, smiling, "Please, follow me."Zachary looked around and huffed, "Honestly, Mr. Cardensky, isn't this way too far from the highway? The road is narrow and terrible, and I have to park my car all the way out here. Just coming here is taxing."Mr. Cardensky smiled in turn. "My friend, that's exactly why we picked this place. Do you remember seeing a couple of cars parked by the road, occupying half of it?""We arranged for them to be there. Anyone coming by car would have to slow down that way, buying time for us to see who they truly are. If it's cops, our watchers would quietly text us while we clean the house and bail."Zachary exclaimed in realization, "You boys really run a tight ship!""For sure," Mr.

After working in Antique Street for years, Zachary's connections and influence were naturally special. And yet, though he was acquainted with some of the more impressive individuals, he was not that close with them either.For example, the forgery masters who worked specifically to deceive experts only accepted jobs from major clients, usually antique traders high in social status and wealth.In contrast, they wouldn't ever be interested in frivolous people like Zachary. Even if he could reach them, they might not look at him twice.If one would describe them as the cartel boss, then Zachary would be a low-level enforcer, managing night joints or goofing off.But now, Zachary had turned over a new leaf—he worked under Don Albert, so one of those masters was pleasantly surprised when he called one of them, inviting him to his own workshop for a visit and further discussion.As such, Zachary picked up Jacob and went over to the master's hideout where the latter worked on his count

Zachary was naturally shrewd enough to read Jacob's intention.In reality, he wasn't offering to pay just because he wanted the profit. He merely wanted to get in Jacob's good graces. After all, wouldn't Jacob be even more grateful that he wasn't just helping his revenge but also helping him make money?As such, he didn't hesitate to tell Jacob, "Well, chief—since you'll be paying, I will make sure that you will get every cent of profit that you deserve."Jacob was grinning ear-to-ear, but he said, "Oh, you don't have to! If we really are making a profit, there's no way I would let your good work go unrewarded!"Spreading his arms, he continued generously, "How about this? I will pay the full cost while you get twenty percent of the net profit!"Zachary laughed. "Now, that can wait, chief. We need to pay as soon as we decide on the item we want, and there's no time for buyer's regret. But if Raymond doesn't take the bait, all that money will go down the drain, and whether we can s
