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 Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3688
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

Charlie also guessed Lord Wade’s intention in doing so, but he was not prepared to give the old man the Rejuvenating Pill—at least not yet. What was most interesting to Charlie in the whole list was the fact that he did not see the British royal family in the list. Previously, Charlie had also seen the movement of the British royal family from Ten Thousand Armies’ intelligence network. It was said that the Crown Prince had not reported the situation about the Rejuvenating Pill truthfully to the Queen after returning to Britain. The Queen had been very angry about this incident and was bent on getting this medicine. However, why did the Queen not come to register when the auction was announced, then?After Charlie thought about it, he felt that it might be because of the requirement to take the Rejuvenating Pill directly on the spot, which was somewhat unacceptable to the Queen.If the Queen was truly interested in the Rejuvenating Pill, the only option would be for her to atten

At this moment, Jordan, who was preparing to depart for Oskia, suddenly received a phone call.The caller was his youngest granddaughter, and she was also his most beloved grandchild, Kathleen.Kathleen was just twenty-two years old this year, and there was more than a seventy-year age gap between Kathleen and Jordan. She was the treasure of the family as she was the daughter of Jordan’s youngest son, whom he had gotten at an old age. Jordan’s oldest grandchild was already over fifty years old now, and even his eldest great-grandson was a few years older than Kathleen. It was precisely because Kathleen was young that she was of great seniority. She could be said to have everything going smoothly for her in the Fox family.In Lord Fox as well as his children and grandchildren’s eyes, Kathleen was the youngest and most beloved child amongst all the grandchildren.It was not only her grandfather who loved and doted on her, but her uncles and aunts loved and doted on her. Even her

Pausing, Charlie then said, "I'll call Steve to drop by later too. I'm sure folks in Aurous Hill won't know him, but your potential troublemaker might.""I-Is that really fine?" Yolden blurted."What's not fine about it?" Charlie chuckled. "He has been treated like a tool ever since he came to Aurous Hill, and now that he has a chance to strut about, he wouldn't ask for more."Yolden appeared slightly relieved at that, and Charlie asked, "By the way, where's Paul, Matilda, and Autumn?""Getting their makeup done," Yolden replied. "Paul's my best man while Autumn's the maid of honor.""Good," Charlie nodded with a grin. "Don't worry—the wedding's going to be a success."As they spoke, Matilda stepped out of the dressing room in a stark-white wedding dress, flanked by Autumn and Paul.Seeing Charlie, Autumn nodded politely, "Good morning, Mr. Wade."As Charlie nodded in turn, Paul started, "G-Good morning… Mr. Wade…"Seeing that he was nervous and tentative, Charlie knew that he

As Yolden and Matilda were remarrying after living abroad for years, the wedding ceremony was much simpler, skipping Oskian customs and having a simple wedding reception for their guests at the hotel hall.There weren't that many guests either—aside from their children and close friends, only a handful of Yolden's colleagues at Aurous Hill University were invited.As the celebrant, Charlie didn't have much to do and was mainly the emcee.He brought along his jacket as he headed out to Shangri-La, not wearing it immediately so that Claire wouldn't guess that he was attending Matilda's wedding.Arriving at the Hanging Gardens before the guests were supposed to arrive, he found Yolden working with the staff to finalize the preparations.Seeing Charlie, Yolden approached him and said, "Thanks for coming this early, Charlie."Noticing that he was a little tired, Charlie asked in concern, "Had a bad night?"Yolden nodded, sighing, "Paul's uncle caused a huge mess. Both Matilda and I a

Tarlon nodded. "How do you suggest we find them?"Fleur scowled. "There's no rush. There are things which I'm still confused about, so just keep a close eye on the Ackers and the Wades for the time being. Report to me right away if anything important comes up—don't afford our enemies any opportunities to exploit.""Yes, milady!" -The next day, more news outlets were covering the joint project between the Ackers and the Wades as word continued to spread.However, neither family revealed too many details, be it the name of the company, who was the CEO, or the scale of their business.While the public was dying with curiosity, nothing else was known.Still, Aurous Hill's officials were especially interested, with the town hall visiting the Ackers the next day and showing utmost sincerity by leasing a whopping 2-million-square-meter land along the southern highway. Still, the condition was for the Ackers to come true on their promise to propel the city's economy to 15 billion US d

Fleur had repeatedly mentioned the conspiracy theory of Ashley using a body double over the last twenty years.Tarlon had investigated from many different angles, but everything from the gender, age, dental records, to body figure pointed to the fact that the deceased was Ashley Acker.And yet, Fleur had never bought it, insisting that Curtis was prepared for them just because Curtis' son had gone missing soon after.There was no way Curtis would save his son but not his wife, and the disfigured corpse only added fuel to Fleur's suspicion.Thus, over the last twenty years, Fleur had kept a close eye on the Ackers, arranging for two 'scholars' to be embedded amongst their ranks as sleeper agents. She went that far all to determine if Ashley was dead or had faked her death.However, the scholars had since been killed in action, and they had no spies within the Ackers left.As for Tarlon, he still doubted Fleur's theory even now, but he remained respectful as he spoke, "Milady, I mu

Meanwhile, on the edge of the South Pole, Tarlon Griffin rushed outside of Fleur Griffin's room, knocking the door gingerly as he announced, "I have news, my lady!"Fleur didn't respond, but the thick wooden door between them slowly opened as if pushed by an invisible force.Tarlon entered to find Fleur seated on the floor with her legs crossed at the ankles. Her eyes remained closed as she molded her Reiki, asking, "What is it?"Tarlon quickly answered, "News from Oskia. The Ackers are partnering with the Wades on a joint venture into electric-powered vehicles."Fleur slowly opened her eyes, asking quietly, "And you're telling me because?"Tarlon quickly explained, "It just came out of the blue, so I thought I should report it to you right away."Fleur sighed. "After I tried and failed to wipe out the Ackers so many times, they wouldn't dare set foot stateside. If anything, they must have decided to seek asylum in Oskia by offering a substantial investment, and it's a base whe

Silent for a while, Matilda then asked Yolden, "Do you think I can do it?""Yes!" Yolden nodded without hesitation. "You definitely won't have any problems!"Matilda sighed, shaking her head. "We traveled far abroad to study while we were young, but we didn't return to Oskia to help the country's development. It's been thirty years since, and now that we have returned to the country at the same time, I definitely wouldn't turn down such an opportunity to help."Pausing, she then said, "That said, major corporations make it a point to not hire family members. Forget spouses—employees aren't allowed to date, and one of the two will be asked to resign if necessary."Don't you think it's inappropriate since we are legally married, having gotten our certificate and all? And if we set these precedents, we would have trouble asking other employees to follow that policy. You are going to be a CEO, so you need a very clear answer on this issue."Yolden shrugged. "In the first place, that p

Yolden nodded slightly. "He does.""My gosh…" Matilda murmured. "That's too much… Ashley's son? A member of the Acker family and the Wades?!"Pausing, she then asked in confusion, "Wait, if Charlie has so much power and influence, why would he permanently reside in Aurous Hill… No, why would he be content as Jacob Wilson's son-in-law? Does Jacob know who he really is?""Definitely not," Yolden shook his head. "There were some compelling circumstances, and his identity is a sensitive one. That's why I'm asking you to tell no one except Paul—and even then, you should only tell him if he can keep the secret."Matilda was sharp enough to pick up on the reasoning, too. "Charlie's hiding because of his parents' accident, isn't he?""Yes," Yolden sighed. "He has his plans, but I didn't pry since I can only do that much, let alone help him on that.""Got it," Matilda nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry. My lips are sealed… And you just said you're resigning? Are you going to help with this e

"That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega

In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega
