No one would have expected that Charlie would change the ancestor worship ceremony which was held once every twelve years directly to once a year. After all, even though the ancestor worship ceremony was significant, it was also a laborious and costly event in itself. So, there was an older member of the Wade family’s collateral family amongst the crowd who spoke up and said, “Charlie... The ancestor worship ceremony being held once every twelve years was a rule set by our ancestors. If you were to change it to once every year, it would be too frequent, right? I personally think that it might not be a good thing for us to disturb our ancestors’ peace too frequently! It would be a great disrespect to our ancestors if they are displeased!”Charlie looked at him and said coldly, “It’s precisely because it used to be held once every twelve years which is the reason why all of you with the last name Wade has long forgotten about your ancestors! All of you fled Eastcliff overnight when
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3511
At this moment, a young man spoke up and said, “I can understand holding the ancestor worship ceremony once a year, but why do you want us to come to Eastcliff for a debriefing and to report to you once every three months?”Charlie asked him rhetorically, “You’re taking the resources of the Wade family and earning the Wade family’s money. So, what opinions do you have now that I’m asking you to report on your duties once every three months?”The young man hurriedly said, “Our family has already moved overseas long ago, and we have gradually shifted the focus of our business over the years. The business that we are currently operating overseas has nothing to do with the Wade family anymore.”Charlie nodded and asked him, “What is your name?” The young man replied, “My name is Theodore Wade.”Charlie nodded slightly and said, “Okay. Let me ask you, what business does your family run overseas now?”Theodore hurriedly said, “We produce and sell Oskian-style furniture for the whole o
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3512
As soon as Charlie’s words came out, Theodore shuddered with fear.The reason why he had said all these to Charlie was because he had wanted to let Charlie understand that his family’s current business was not dependent on the Wade family, nor did he need any resources or help from the Wade family at all. Therefore, there was no need for him to come to Oskia once every three months to give Charlie a report. However, Theodore would never have thought that after saying so much, Charlie would actually ask him to stay in Oskia directly to help him instead. Theodore was instantly filled with regret, and he really wanted to slap himself in the face!After that, he had a miserable look on his face as he hurriedly said, “Mr. Wade... Please don’t take what I’ve just said seriously because I was merely bragging...”Charlie had a calm expression on his face as he asked, “Oh? Is that so?”Theodore hurriedly nodded repeatedly as if he was pounding garlic.At this time, a middle-aged man be

Charlie looked at Herman and asked seriously, “Was it really you?”Herman nodded repeatedly and clenched his teeth as he said, “Really... It was really me...”“Alright, then.” Charlie spoke up and said, “Since it’s you, you can stay back, then. Many things are waiting to be done in this family right now, and this is the critical moment to employ people. As for the descendants of the Wade family, they will basically be staying on Mount Wintry to mourn for the next three years. So, this is the time for the Wade family’s collateral families to make more contributions to the family.”When Theodore heard this, he started protesting immediately, “Mr. Wade! Although we share the same last name, we have already become independent long ago, and our family has our own affairs. How can we simply leave our own family affairs aside and run off to serve the Wade family at such a time?! Besides, ours is a small business to begin with, and it’s not like your family business. Wouldn’t it be even mor

Ever since the moment Charlie had decided to carry on his father’s legacy, he was already prepared to be impolite to anyone with the last name Wade.This was because he knew very well in his heart that although these people were all his family, they were even more like his enemies. It was easy to become a prince, but being a king was too difficult.Once you become the king and if you wanted to be a successful king, you would have to discard all ties between family members.From the moment you ascend the throne, there would no longer be father and son, mother and son, grandfather and grandson, or brothers and sisters. There would only be a king and his subjects!One person would be the king!The ten thousand people were all his subjects!Therefore, Charlie naturally would not be polite to these members of the Wade family’s collateral families.In the final analysis, it was just one sentence. What’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is still mine!He saw that Theodore was a y

Herman also nodded repeatedly as he instructed, “I’ll stay and serve the core family. When the time comes, you can take over the position as the chairman, then...”As Herman spoke of this, he sighed and said emotionally, “It’s just that you’re still so young and inexperienced now. I’m really worried that you will not be able to do it well if you are forced to do something that is entirely beyond your abilities...”Theodore hurriedly spoke according to his father’s words as he said, “Dad, don’t worry, I will definitely try my best to do it. I dare not say that I will be able to lead the group to advance by leaps and bounds, but at the very least, I will do my best to maintain the family business and wait for you to return to regain control of the entire company...”Herman sighed emotionally as he said, “Sigh! It’s my duty to serve the core family and so, at the moment, there is no other way but for me to force you to grow up quickly!” Charlie could not help but frown as he thought

Theodore was about to collapse emotionally.He finally understood that Charlie was the master of acting.Both he and his father were nothing and could not be compared to Charlie at all.Theodore and his father were originally planning to put on a show so that they could get themselves switched out and go back to running their own family business. Unexpectedly, a few words from Charlie would not only set him back again, but they would also end up offending someone that they could not afford to mess with.Herman also felt extremely depressed. He had no idea how he should settle things at this moment.Even if he were to take this opportunity to offer to let his son stay at this moment, the chances were already very slim now. This was because once that happened, it would be equivalent to them admitting that they had just lied to Charlie. They were already originally sinners in front of the Wade family, and as a result, they were still playing tricks with Charlie at this time. If

If someone sold him a fifty-million-dollar villa that came with a twenty-million-dollar renovation for a hundred million dollars, he would also think that it was a good deal.Moreover, he would need to buy a variety of items, including a variety of daily necessities as well as cars, yachts, and even helicopters after buying the villa.In addition, he would also require a lot of human and material resources for maintenance to ensure that he would be able to go over and live there at any time and would always have maids who could provide their services to him at any time. Therefore, spending one hundred million dollars to buy the villa and then buying a car, yacht, and helicopter might end up being tens of millions of dollars. Furthermore, the depreciation cost was amazingly high, and it would easily amount to a depreciation of ten million dollars a year. Not only that, but the maintenance costs of the entire villa and the various equipment would also be tens of millions of dollars

With those words, Jacob didn't wait any further as he turned and left Antique Street, intent on seeking legal counsel.Raymond watched him leave before returning to Treasure Measure.He wasn't going to leave, but he had said so because he didn't want to waste much time with Jacob.Still, to avoid any trouble, he turned the sign outside to 'closed' before locking the door from the inside.That was when a man suddenly arrived, asking through the glass door, "Can I still take a look inside, sir?"Raymond was ready to refuse without even turning around when he realized that it was Charlie.He turned around and saw him standing outside just as expected.Smiling, he hurried over to open the door for him. "It's been a while, Mr. Wade!"Charlie was aware that Raymond was sticking to his identity of 'Raymond Cole' who had not been in touch since Raymond had been fired from Vintage Deluxe.Charlie chuckled in turn. "It has indeed. And you're a business owner yourself now, too.""It's j

Jacob zipped toward Raymond, his attitude immediately subservient, "I'm sure you've seen what Zachary Evans posted on his Twitter page, and to be honest, it's so terrible that my position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association has been affected too. I mean, you've made a lot of money, right?"Hell, even if you donated ten million, you'd still have another ten million and 970 thousand in net profits. So, all I'd like to ask is for you to post something to disclaim Zachary's post.Jacob's words left Raymond in thought.For Jacob, just being suspected of fraud would definitely be terrible. In fact, his position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association would definitely be threatened—if not dismissed altogether—if he wasn't cleared of suspicion.Since Jacob was Charlie Wade's father-in-law, Raymond had reason not to drive Jacob over the brink.But that also begged another question—it must be under Charlie's intention for Zachary to post his confession, and that meant Charlie in

Raymond couldn't help chuckling just as Jacob finished—he had honestly never heard of anyone who demanded a refund after donating to charity, but he was certainly seeing one now.Still, the receptionist was clearly experienced and slowly explained, "Sir, it's a legal clause of the country that all donations for philanthropy purposes can not be refunded under most circumstances—""It truly was a mistake," Jacob quickly said, cutting the receptionist off. "I was going to donate thirty thousand but pressed an extra zero by mistake. Please discuss this with your management—you just have to refund 27 thousand, see?""Sorry, sir," the receptionist apologized. "But it's a strict rule that we ourselves do not get to access the funds that have been donated into our accounts. Every donation will be screened extensively, and if you consider that there was a major oversight on your part, you may seek legal counsel to appeal for a refund. If the courts back your appeal, our organization will the

Nonetheless, Jacob darted into Treasure Measure and plucked off his mask, asking nervously, "Excuse me, Mr. Cole? It's me… Jacob Wilson…"Raymond looked up, pausing for a moment before acting as if he was actually curious, "Mr. Wilson! What brings you here? Don't tell me—you want that bronze sculpture back too?""No, no, no…" Jacob quickly shook his head. "I would never… I returned all the way from Dubai to apologize!""Apologize?" Raymond smiled faintly, and he did not play dumb this time as he asked bluntly, "Did you come back because of Zachary Evan's post?"Knowing he couldn't deny it any longer, Jacob nodded, "Yeah…"Raymond nodded and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. I was the one who benefited in the end."Jacob wasn't quite keeping up—thinking that Raymond was just trying to be nice by telling him he didn't have to apologize, he quickly pulled out his phone.Tapping on it and bringing up his transaction records, he handed it to Raymond reverently, "Mr. Cole, I understan

The cabbie chuckled. "You're a local yet you're heading to Antique Street right away as soon as you land instead of going home? And you're still saying you're not trying to pick up a killer bargain deal?"Come on, man—it's not just you, I want that too. We cabbies work ourselves to death only for ten thousand per month at best while our friend over there made twenty million in one night. I could keep driving cabs for the rest of my life and still not make that much money."Jacob knew that the cabbie must be talking about Raymond and became even more miserable then, grumbling unhappily, "I'm going to Antique Street for business—I'm not trying to pick up some missed bargain.""No? Then you didn't hear what happened yesterday?"The cabbie was immediately curious, and without waiting for Jacob's answer, he exclaimed happily, "Look, man—it was so ridiculous not even Hollywood would put it in their script. There were these fools who were trying to sell an antique trader a replica, but th

It was nighttime in Dubai as Jacob dragged his weary body from the hotel back to the airport.As he was flying economy this time, he was left sitting at the hard bench near the boarding terminal, waiting for it to open.While he waited, his heart was torn as he tapped into the website of the Aurous Hill Charity Fund, found their donation account, and wired the entire 300 thousand he had made over to them.He had picked the Aurous Hill Charity Fund because the circles of antique collectors in Aurous Hill were all discussing how Raymond had donated half of the 20 million he had made to that same charity fund.After Raymond skyrocketed to prominence in Antique Street and became a star, it could not be denied that people admired his profound ability.However, there were also people who envied his skill in turning the tables just as there were those who were jealous he had made twenty million in a single night.Still, Raymond moved fast—soon after word spread that he had made twenty m

Elaine quickly asked, "Well, what if you can't get it done?"Jacob was apprehensive even as he sighed. "If they really pressed the issue, guess I can't even stay at the Calligraphy and Painting Association now… We will see. If things get bad, I'll just resign. I won't ask for much right now, just as long as I don't have to go to jail."Elaine nodded. "Then you should try to reason things out with Raymond Cole or ask for Charlie's help if push comes to shove. Being humiliated is still better than prison.""Okay!"-It was nighttime at Aurous Hill by the time Elaine and Jacob arrived at their hotel.Charlie and Claire had just had dinner, and Claire pulled out her phone, saying, "I just checked my flight app, and it says my parents should have landed two hours ago. They are probably at the hotel, so I'll check in on them with a video call."She had yet to open her WhatsApp when Elaine called her on a video call.Jacob was planning to check in with Claire and Charlie to put their

Hearing what Jacob had said, Elaine became anxious and pressed him as he hung up, "What's going on? You're leaving? But we just got here! My shoes have just caught Dubai dirt, so why are we leaving so soon—"However, Jacob was wiping the sweat off his brow as he mumbled quietly, "Well, at this point, I have to leave or I won't be vice president anymore."Elaine immediately fumed. "We've been married for half our lives, and this is supposed to be our honeymoon, yet we're just leaving? I've posted about this on social media too—there are plenty of people who're waiting for more posts on our trip!"And don't forget—we spent a lot on our flight tickets and our hotels! The hotel bookings can't be refunded either!"Jacob scowled dolefully. "Well, what can we do? Why don't you stay? I'll go home and get this sorted out first….""Well, how long would that take?" Elaine asked."How should I know?" Jacob sighed, uneasy and annoyed. "Don Albert is saying I have to go back and donate the 300

"But I spent 98 thousand on that bronze sculpture!" Jacob exclaimed in agitation before he knew it. "I made 300 thousand from it, and that means my profit was 200 thousand at best, but I'm supposed to return that to him as well?! That means I'd have lost my own capital too!""I can't help you if you can't bear to part with that money, Mr. Wilson," Don Albert said quietly. "In that case, you'll just have to handle it yourself.""Wait, wait, wait!" Jacob immediately became antsy and cried out right then, "Please, Don Albert! I'll return the money! I'll return it, alright?! The entirety of my profits—202 thousand, okay? At least let me keep the money I spent, okay?""By that reasoning, Mr. Wilson, when a phone scammer is told by the cops to return the money they've made from defrauding, should he be allowed to keep the money he spent on telco charges? ""Oh, I…" Jacob was left stumped and could not come up with an answer.Don Albert then pressed on, "Mr. Wilson, I've offered a prom
