Most of these people were here for the Apothecary Restoration Pill.As the originator of all this, Charlie had not paid any attention to this matter at this time.What he was truly concerned about was the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill that would be held soon.It could be seen from the relevant Ten Thousand Armies’ intelligence network that the Rejuvenating Pill already had a certain influence amongst the top European and American crowds. Although it was not as well-known as the Apothecary Restoration Pill, to those top powerful people, it was much more significant compared to the Apothecary Restoration Pill.Now, many of the top powerful people in Europe and the United States were also trying their best to inquire about the Rejuvenating Pill, but they could not find any substantial clues at all because the Rejuvenating Pill was simply too mysterious. At this time, Charlie was still confirming all the details with Isaac and Jasmine before the official launch of the promotion

Jasmine heard Charlie saying that the promotion and registration for the Rejuvenating Pill auction would be launched tomorrow, so she hurriedly said to Charlie, “Master Wade, I have selected three candidate auctioneers for the auction. Would you like to take a look at them and screen through them first?”Charlie nodded and smiled as he said, “Okay. The auctioneer is still very important to the auction and so, the auctioneer must be chosen carefully.”Jasmine hastily took out her cell phone and pulled out several videos from her album as she played them to Charlie one by one, explaining as she went along, “Master Wade, these three auctioneers are all very senior auctioneers from Vintage Deluxe. Although their qualifications and experience are not as good as those of Christie’s or Sotheby’s, they are definitely the best in Aurous Hill.”Charlie patiently watched the three videos shown by Jasmine. Out of the three candidate auctioneers, there were two women and one man who were all in

The order required Roger to take out ten boxes of the Apothecary Restoration Pill to be handed over to the special envoy sent by the White House to be kept in strict custody with the nuclear bomb cipher box in the name of the highest-level strategic supplies.This suddenly placed Roger in an extremely difficult situation.Smith had brought back a total of twenty boxes of the Apothecary Restoration Pill, which would be one hundred and forty pills in total.Four boxes had been kept aside for Smith’s son, Jimmy, and aside from being used for the reverse engineering research and development, the rest of the pills were being distributed amongst the four patients that the White House had previously crammed in.To begin with, they were already stretching themselves to the limit.Now, the special envoy was even going to take away ten boxes to be kept as strategic supplies. So, that would mean that Roger and the others would have almost nothing left on hand.Roger could not help but compl

Shunpei, whom they had high hopes for, was not in a better situation at the moment.After settling down temporarily in Aurous Hill, he had been collecting environmental specimens in Aurous Hill for the past two days. Air, soil, floating dust, and water sources had all become the objects of his research.He even used some river water, lake water, tap water, and even spring water from the mountain in Aurous Hill and took turns to conduct various research in the villa.However, even after he had researched continuously, he began to feel more and more that not only was there nothing outstanding about the environment in Aurous Hill, but it was not even as good as the environment in Washington as a whole.The rest of the members of his team also felt the same way. Even though Aurous Hill was one of the ancient capitals in Oskia, the environment here was really not very good.Although the air pollution was not so serious, the air quality was not that good either. Moreover, it had a typ

“Okay.” Charlie instructed, “You should also be more careful. It would be best for you to stay in The Apothecary Pharmaceutical and not go anywhere for the time being.”Liam hurriedly said, “Yes, Master Wade!” ***Early the next morning, Shunpei dressed himself up as a morning jogger and ran all the way from his residence to The Apothecary Pharmaceutical.As he was on his way to The Apothecary Pharmaceutical, Jasmine announced to the public that Vintage Deluxe would be holding an auction in Aurous Hill in twenty days. She also announced information on the collections that would be auctioned at the auction.In addition to some famous calligraphy and paintings as well as antique porcelain, there would also be an item called the ‘Rejuvenating Pill’.Vintage Deluxe did not explain much about the ‘Rejuvenating Pill’, only introducing it as an ancient Oskian medicine with excellent medicinal effects. When this news came out, it did not cause any ripples in Aurous Hill and domestical

The registration threshold for Vintage Deluxe was ten billion dollars, which converted roughly to about 1.6 billion US dollars.It might sound like a lot, but in reality, just from the data that could be counted, there were nearly three thousand wealthy people in the world who had assets exceeding this amount.In addition, there was no telling how many invisible tycoons there were, ones who had never announced their assets to the public. Therefore, Charlie was not surprised that five hundred people had registered in two hours.However, it was rare for Elaine and Jacob, who were at home, to start to get angry when they saw the news of this auction.When Elaine saw the news feed on her cell phone, she basically did not think before she blurted out and cursed, “I’m afraid that Vintage Deluxe is really stupid! What kind of sh*tty auction is being held that a threshold of ten billion dollars is required for the registration?! Isn’t this simply bullsh*t? Who would dare to be so arrogan

Jacob hurriedly said, “You should just forget about it! I’m representing the Calligraphy and Painting Association to engage in a cultural exchange with the Koreans. Do you know about cultural exchanges? It’s an exchange between cultural people, so why should you be following us there? If people did not know any better, they would think that I’m deliberately bringing my family along with me on a publicly funded trip!”When Elaine heard this, she immediately said with some dissatisfaction, “Aren’t you the vice-chairman? You’re the second-in-command, so can’t you bring your own wife with you when you go out for a cultural exchange?!”Jacob thought to himself, ‘Even if I could really bring my wife, I would not bring you with me! I’m not f*cking insane...’Even though he thought that to himself, he still said solemnly, “This exchange is not organized by our Calligraphy and Painting Association, but it is organized by the city. When the time comes, each cultural field will send two or thr

When Charlie returned to his room, he carefully went through the name list sent by Jasmine immediately. He realized that amongst the hundreds of applicants, the vast majority were from the United States and Europe.Amongst them, there were more than three hundred people who had signed up from the United States itself. Moreover, from the names of the applicants, it could be seen that there were not only Americans, but there were also many people of Oskian, Japanese and Korean descent.Interestingly, most of the applicants from the United States were plutocrats and entrepreneurs, and more than half of the applicants from Europe were surprisingly the royal families and nobles from various countries. Even the Northern European royal family had signed up for this auction, and the person who had signed up for this was the old queen who had just abdicated. Charlie could not help but think, ‘I don’t know if the Northern European royal family’s assets even add up to ten billion dollar

Though Jacob had nothing going for him, he had always had a huge ego, and he had never once admitted that he would lose to anyone in the presence of his wife and daughter.That was why both Elaine and Claire were shocked when he suddenly openly admitted that he was a piece of shit in front of them. They had never heard such a thing from him in the decades they had lived with him!In fact, Jacob himself was reluctant to insult himself like that.However, Charlie told him repeatedly that he absolutely must say it before he came here—because Charlie was dead sure that this line was the key to getting over this impasse, and it truly did put this crisis to rest.Even as Jacob finished, his heart was bleeding as he felt like he had just put his pride on the floor and trampled all over it until it was crushed to oblivion. Even though it was to clear any suspicion Elaine held toward him, to call himself a piece of shit—to say it himself that his beloved woman would think him beneath her,

Before Elaine knew it, she was reading the website she had just read again, and she did indeed find Yolden's name on it.With that, everything Charlie had said snapped together into a perfect chain of logic.Seeing the troubled look on her face, Charlie quickly added, "I'm not going to lie—Dad told me right away when he was told Matilda was getting married. We even discussed if we should tell you, and now you know why." "Matilda is doing so well for herself and got such an amazing husband, and they've picked Shangri-La's Sky Garden—something an average Joe could never hope to reach. And since she invited our whole family and not just us, Dad had to really think about it.""Eventually, he told me to hide it from you or it'd leave you devastated, so none of us said anything. We just didn't think you'd find that invitation and then end up having a big fight about it."Sighing, Charlie then continued, "But if you really want to go, we can go together for their wedding to put your min

Bitterness swelled in Elaine's heart as she really didn't think that Matilda was doing so well for herself.The fact that Matilda was worth millions alone made her far superior.At the same time, she was also rejoicing that she had never actually met Matilda. If Matilda asked how she was doing directly, how would she respond?In the end, Matilda was no Hannah Queen.Elaine would actually feel accomplished if she compared herself to Hannah.On the other hand, Matilda eclipsed Elaine in every way—she was more beautiful, kind, smart, and knowledgeable. Even her figure left Elaine dead in the water!It was as pointless as comparing a hen to a peacock!Whenever she thought of her, she could comfort herself that she had stolen her man even if she couldn't measure up in any way.But now, Jacob was completely insignificant to Matilda while Elaine still treated Jacob like a trophy.Even as a sense of inferiority seized her, Charlie sighed. "Come on, you should understand where Jacob is

"Exactly!"Charlie agreed, striking the metal while it was hot. "To be honest, the years Matilda spent in the States would be wasted if she was actually still interested!" "She's a Wall Street veteran who'd definitely have met so many successful men! Why would she be interested in a loser like Jacbo Wilson? It's not like she returned from the States after thirty years to help the poor, don't you agree?"Charlie then finished with a sigh. "The way I see it? You're the only one who'd be interested in him."Jacob heard that from behind the wall and was left absolutely fuming and humiliated.He was the only one who knew that Matilda had come back for him—even if she was worth millions now.However, he just didn't have the spine to divorce Elaine and get together with Matilda.He presumed that it was no rush and that he could just give Elaine the silent treatment—who knew, she might just give in and ask for a divorce herself, and then, he would have no issues getting together with M

"Her real lover?!" Elaine exclaimed in shock. "What are you talking about?"Charlie put on a serious face as she said, "Matilda came back to Oskia for her one true love, who is now her fiance. His name is Yolden Hart, a top economist who's now a lecturer at Aurous Hill University, who was invited all the way from the States. He's a professional manager and used to work in Wall Street, so he'd be qualified to be a CEO in any Fortune 500 company…""Professional manager?" Elaine pouted. "That still means he's a wage slave!"Charlie laughed. "Don't underestimate professional managers now. Just look at Apple Inc.'s CEO—the man earns around a hundred million USD per year, and that's over seven hundred million in Oskian dollars!"Elaine was left gaping, unable to imagine how a wage slave could earn so much.At the same time, Charlie continued, "To be fair, Professor Hart wouldn't earn that much, but 50 million per year is still no sweat for him. Do you get the amount of money we're talki

Elaine appeared taken aback, and she promptly demanded, "You've met Matilda too?!"It was only then that Claire realized she had let the cat out of the bag, and she suddenly didn't know what to say. "Oh… Uh… Mom… I, uh… didn't?"Nonetheless, Elaine was suddenly pressing her menacingly, "If you've never met her, how would you know she's a serious person?!"As Claire stayed silent, Elaine broke down in tears. "No… You're lying to me too! Aren't you?!"While Claire was left at a loss of how she should salvage this mess, Charlie suddenly entered and said, "Claire didn't—but I did.""What?!" Elaine was left staring at Charlie, stunned.Still, she soon demanded, "Y-You've met Matilda?! Did Jacob take you with him to see her?""Yes," Charlie admitted, nodding.Elaine snapped right then, and she bellowed, "Then why didn't you tell me?! To think that I've always done right by you, treating you like my own son, but you wouldn't tell me that Jacob is cheating on me! Y-You disappoint me!"

Jacob certainly left Charlie speechless—the man might get kicked out of the house, but he was more worried about his car.Sighing in exasperation, he told Jacob, "Look, if it fails, I won't be able to get you a nice place, let alone leave the Cullinan with you."Jacob blurted out, "But why—""Don't forget—I'm still living in this house even if you're gone!" Charlie explained, his expression dead serious. "If I let you have a nice place and the Cullinan, God knows how terrible a grudge your wife would hold against me. I need to have a sense of self-preservation too!""If I got you a rundown apartment, I could at least defend myself even if she gets upset about that. I mean, I can't let you sleep in the streets, can I? Claire and I would be guilty of abandoning our elders."Seeing the serious look on Charlie's face, Jacob breathed a long sigh as he clapped him on the shoulder, groaning mournfully, "Oh, I get it. I wouldn't want to upset Elaine if I were in your shoes too…"Charlie

Charlie sighed. "I told you it'd blow up, Dad, but you had to doubt me.""I wasn't doubting you," Jacob promptly defended himself. "I thought I might catch a lucky break—"Charlie cut him short, "Fair enough. Then, how are you going to handle this? I can try to stop Mom from going to that wedding and prevent her from getting in the hall even if she went, but what's going to happen to the both of you? Do you want a divorce or do you want to stay with her?"The light in Jacob's faded as he shrugged and sighed. "If I could divorce her, I would've—and I would be living happily with Matilda now. What company would I have if I did it now? Do you think Elaine would let me stay in Thompson First, with that attitude of hers?""In the end, I'd be chased out without a place to stay, and I can't suffer the humiliation of moving back with my mom and brother, can I? Hell, they might not even take me back!""So, that's a no?" Charlie pressed.Jacob smiled wryly. "At my age, even if I could, I w

Hearing that Elaine was threatening suicide, Claire exclaimed urgently, "Take me to her now!"The traffic police officer quickly nodded. "Come on!"As the traffic police officer quickly led Claire to Elaine, Charlie arrived just then and gave chase after leaving the luggage by the entrance.Stopping them, he asked, "Excuse me, officer—where's the gentleman who came with Madam Parker? May I see him?""And who are you?" The traffic police officer asked."I'm his son-in-law," Charlier replied. "I was thinking that while my wife talks to her mom, I can talk to my father-in-law, make peace, and take them both home.""Oh, that'd be great!"The traffic police officer exclaimed and quickly beckoned at a colleague, "Come over. Take this gentleman to Jacob Wilson!""Okay!" The other traffic police officer was also quite enthusiastic.Charlie entered the room where Jacob was first, immediately seeing a disfigured Jacob taking deep puffs of his cigarette.Another traffic police officer w
