Charlie played steadily, and he put in another five million chips, leaving only two million chips on hand.Walliot wanted to force Charlie to hurry up and pay out a sum of money first and so, he immediately threw in ten million chips and spoke up, “Mr. Wade, I’ll bet one hundred million euros. You seem to be running out of chips already.”Charlie shrugged, and he threw his bunch of miscellaneous cards aside directly as he said, “I fold.”There was an uproar in the crowd. “He’s folding just like that?”“He has already bet one or two hundred million euros, but he is folding just like that?! Does this guy know how to play or not?”“If I would have known that he’s so stupid, I would have just played against him just now! I wouldn’t have let Walliot take all the money, then!” Walliot was about to laugh out happily at this moment, and he almost could not control his emotions anymore. So, after calming himself down for a long time, he finally said, “Mr. Wade, you don’t have any more
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3450
The game that followed immediately had a new meaning now.When the cards were dealt, Charlie quickly received three Aces, two of which were on the bright side.As for Walliot, his cards were even more impressive. His cards were 10, J, Q, K, and they were all spades. When Walliot saw these cards, he instantly knew in his heart that the croupier should be planning to give him a flush while he gave Charlie four Aces.The biggest card in Texas Hold’em poker was the straight flush which would kill all other card combinations.Charlie had already exposed two of his best cards which were two Aces at this point, and the best combination of cards that he could possibly obtain would also be just four Aces.Even if Charlie had four Aces, it would be impossible for him to win a straight flush. Therefore, Walliot had no doubt that Charlie would lose this game and that he would win. However, it seemed as though Charlie did not believe in evil, and after a few rounds of betting, Charlie be

So, he said somewhat nervously, “M-Mr. Wade… In my opinion, we should not add on to this game anymore… Two billion euros is really a very big amount. Even if you do not take money seriously, you should not be throwing money away just like that…”Charlie laughed and said, “You’ve not even opened your card yet so how do you know for sure that I would be the one throwing money away, then?” Walliot said awkwardly, “Mr. Wade, I’m not joking with you. I really think that the chances of me winning this game are much greater than yours. Why don’t we just open the cards, and the person who wins will take all the chips on this table. We will not add anything else, okay?”Charlie forced a burst of laughter as he sneered and said, “I already said that you are as indecisive as a woman! I really did not describe you wrongly at all! You have already fucking won a billion euros from me, so what are you afraid of?”As he spoke, Charlie then said to Olivia, “Persuade this fiancé of yours. A man sho

At this moment, Walliot was already prepared to welcome three billion euros as well as a Concorde.Aside from Charlie, everyone at the scene was staring at the croupier’s hand with bated breath.This card would determine the final destination of the billions of euros on the table.Meanwhile, both Walliot and Olivia were certain that victory was in their hands. Charlie did not seem to mind it at all at this time, and he had a neither happy nor sad, neither hurried nor unhurried expression on his face. It was as if everything had nothing to do with him. The croupier then picked up the card and suddenly flipped it over before throwing it in front of Walliot.At this moment, Walliot had not seen exactly what that card was, but he was already stunned as if he had been struck by lightning. This was because… he could see that… his card… was red!Charlie’s four Aces were already displayed there, and if Walliot wanted to win, it would have to be a straight flush.The Ace of Spades w

After Charlie had spoken, he looked at the croupier and questioned him in a stern voice, “You! Tell us everything you know clearly!”The croupier hurriedly spoke up, “Walliot invited me to come over here today precisely because he wanted me to help set up a gambling game. He wanted me to let him win a sum of money. He has already done this more than once, and he would always win at least hundreds of millions of euros into his bank account every time. I was also instructed by him this time, and that’s why I helped him to cheat…”Charlie looked at Walliot and asked coldly, “Come. What else do you have to say?”Walliot suddenly did not know how to respond, and just then, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the IOU on the table. He had originally won one billion euros from Charlie today, but now, he had entered into an IOU for two billion euros. This meant that not only did he not win Charlie’s money today, but he had ended up owing Charlie one billion euros instead.However, Walliot fel

At this moment, Walliot’s entire inner psychological defense had already collapsed completely. He knew very well in his heart that once this matter was to be really brought to court, he would definitely be the one to lose. Moreover, it would be a miserable defeat!Not to mention the fact that the IOU that he had written himself was in Charlie’s hands, but just the fact that a descendant of the Rothschild family who was also the fiancé of the future Queen of Northern Europe would actually cheat others in a gambling game was already sufficient to ruin his own reputation completely.Furthermore, this scam involved three billion euros and a plane! If this news were to get out, Walliot was afraid that it would become the largest gambling fraud in the world! It would definitely be disastrous for his family’s reputation!The most important thing for the European royal family and the big families was reputation.As long as a member of the royal family, including the prince, did somethi

Upon saying that, Olivia hurriedly ran out. At this time, in the banquet hall.Richard was drinking together with Gregory. Aman, who had been slapped by Charlie, had already returned to his room long ago in anguish. Richard and Gregory’s wives had also returned to their rooms first because their alcohol tolerance was not strong.These two men were left in the banquet hall as they drank glass after glass of wine. Both of them were in a very good mood. After all, it would be both of their children’s wedding tomorrow, and Olivia would also be able to ascend to the throne and become the queen not long after the wedding. At that time, as Olivia’s husband, Walliot would also be officially conferred the title of Prince. By then, Walliot, who had the title of a prince, would surely become famous in the Rothschild family.Perhaps their entire family would also be able to squeeze into the second level in the Rothschild family then. Just as the both of them were drinking happily, O

When Gregory saw that Charlie was not buying his plea at all, he hurriedly begged for mercy and said, “Mr. Wade, my son has made a mistake, and as his father, I will definitely find a way to make it up to you for it. I will do my best to solve this problem. Please do not be so angry!”Charlie nodded and said, “Since you have this attitude, I will not continue talking nonsense with you. Your son dares to set me up and try to cheat me. He wanted to cheat me out of three billion euros and a Concorde in one go. I, Charlie Wade, have never encountered such a cruel setup in my whole life. How do you plan to solve this matter?”Gregory suddenly had cold sweat all over his face.He really did not expect that his son would be so bold.Three billion euros and a Concorde… This was not fucking gambling, this was outright stealing from others!Before Gregory could think of how he could give Charlie a satisfactory answer, Charlie waved the IOU for two billion euros in his hand and said indiffer

Jacob wasn't really concerned with the invitation. He wouldn't be going anyway, and he wouldn't tell Elaine about it.Right now, he had a question.After hanging up on Walker, he asked curiously, "A designated driver would be just a few dozen bucks at most. Why get Walker?"Mr. Bay sighed meaningfully. "Jacob, my boy—it's not just my job description you must handle when you succeed me. You must understand the unspoken rules of the workplace as well as interpersonal relationships."Raising his right index finger, he chuckled, "Earning the loyalty of subordinates is a science. But it has to be a carrot and stick—never just the carrot, while offering them chances to be of service.""Take Walker, for example. As his boss, buying him lunch is 5 points. Ask for a favor, but it's 50 points instead!""As a leader, you should also make sure to give requests that are reasonable. That way, they will consider you to be their ally, or soon enough.""People are strange that way—psychology sim

Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

Jacob put a hand on his chest. "Don't worry—everything is going to be fine when my son-in-law takes the stage."As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown number called his phone.He answered, hearing a familiar voice he couldn't quite place, "Good afternoon. Am I speaking to Mr. Jacob Wilson?""Yes. May I ask who I am speaking to?""Albert Rhodes, owner of Heaven Springs at your service. Would you happen to remember me?"Hearing that, Jacob turned on the speaker excitedly as he continued, "Oh, yes, Don Albert! Of course I remember!"Mr. Bay's eyes lit up when he heard Albert announce himself, and he mouthed, "Is that really Don Albert?!"Jacob nodded repeatedly, his vanity burgeoning.Mr. Bay was naturally thrilled too, and he leaned closer to listen just as Albert spoke humbly, "If it's alright with you, Mr. Wilson, please don't address me as Don Albert. It's just a title some brats came up with—you are Master Wade's father-in-law, which means you have seniority over me. So,

Mr. Bay was overjoyed, seeing how quickly Jacob agreed to it. "Thanks, Jacob! I owe you!" He exclaimed, but soon added, "It's past four now, and that bunch like to fraternize in the room before they eat. Could you get the room soon? I think they'll be arriving soon."Then, he moved closer to add quietly, "If you can get a Diamond Room like before, I will bring you along. I'm not going to lie, these are officials with decision-making authority. Being friends with them might propel us to new heights!"Jacob already knew that Mr. Bay was sucking up to his friend, otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned when the dinner was organized by said friend. Understanding that the friend must be important too, Jacob was at once buoyed.After all, he had presumed that becoming vice president was the most he could achieve.Now, if he could attend that dinner with Mr. Bay and establish a good relationship with those bigwigs, he would have his turn when Mr. Bay got promoted too.With that in min

Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…
