Elaine spent the rest of the morning daydreaming repeatedly about the million-dollar present that Jason had prepared for her. What could it be? She didn’t even have the mood to play cards anymore and quickly rushed to the Divine Lounge to meet up with Jason when it was time.What would the gift be? Jewelry? Diamonds? Cash? A cheque? Or something else?For people like Elaine who were on the fiddle, Jason’s lucrative gift was such an alluring attraction. The other day, when she had used Claire’s cheque to pay for the hospital bill and exploited 160,000 dollars from it, she was so happy that she had grinned over her cleverness for days.Hence, the thought of getting a million-dollar gift from Jason immediately sent her to cloud nine!At 11.30 am, Elaine bid farewell to her friends, took a taxi, and went straight to the Divine Lounge.When she arrived at the restaurant, she stood by the door as agreed and waited for Jason to come.Soon, a brand new black Mercedes Benz slowly rolled
There was nothing in her mind but money!For her, the most important element she looked for in a son-in-law was that they must be rich and willing to spend money on her. Otherwise, they were nothing but stinky sh*t in her eyes no matter how good they were.A man like Jason was the best candidate for a son-in-law because he was willing to spend money on his mother-in-law!He was already so generous and had given her a Mercedes Benz as a gift even before he was together with her daughter, what would happen if Claire married him? Would he give her a big mansion or a lavish yacht?She was extremely delighted, and her imagination ran wild!However, she still had to be polite superficially. Grabbing Jason’s arm, she said earnestly, “Jason, I’m touched by your generosity, but the car is very expensive. Would it truly be okay if I accepted it just like that?”“Why wouldn’t it be?” Jason answered. “Auntie, it’s my token of appreciation, just take it!”Elaine grinned like a dog with two t
At this time, Claire, Charlie, and Jacob had just finished having lunch at home.As Charlie was heading to the kitchen to clean up the dishes as usual, he suddenly received a phone call from Xyla.As soon as he answered the call, Xyla replied in shame as she said, “Mr. Wade, what are you doing now?”“I’m just at home.” Charlie replied in a casual manner. After that, he asked, “What’s wrong? Is there anything you want to tell me?”At this time, Xyla quickly replied, “The reason why I’m calling you today is because I want to report something to you.”“Speak.”Xyla hurriedly explained herself at this time. “So, this is what happened. Yesterday, Jason Grant and Kenneth Wilson came to my grandfather’s medical clinic begging him to treat them! My grandfather did not know that Kenneth had offended you and he almost gave him the other half of the magical pill that you’d previously given to him!”Out of curiosity, Charlie asked, “Why? Does your family have a good relationship with Kennet
Charlie simply replied, “Yes, I will come over and take a look later in the afternoon.”“That is great, Mr. Wade!” Xyla yelled excitedly before she said, “Let me tell Grandpa the good news now. He must be very excited!”After he was done cleaning up in the kitchen, Charlie came out of the kitchen and he saw that Claire was already ready to leave the house. After that, he asked, “My dear wife, are you heading to your studio now?”Claire shook her head before she said, “No. Mom called me and she told me that she has a friend who’s interested in renovating a villa. Therefore, I’m heading there to check it out.”At this time, Charlie replied in a hurry, “Which area are you heading to?”Claire replied immediately, “The villa by the river.”Charlie smiled before he replied, “That’s perfect! Can you drop me off at Serene World Clinic on the way to the villa? I want to pay a visit to the genius doctor, Dr. Simmons.”Claire was very surprised and she asked, “Are you going to see Dr. Simm
When Charlie saw Anthony saluting and bowing before him, Charlie waved his hand before he said, “Mr. Simmons, you don’t need to be so polite with me. You don’t need to call me Mr. Wade either, you can just call me Charlie.”“How could I possibly do that?” Anthony hurriedly bowed before he said, “Mr. Wade, you are my master, so how could I possibly address you by your first name?”When Charlie saw how stubborn and persistent the old man was, he did not continue to persuade him. Instead, he simply said, “I heard that Jason Grant and Kenneth Wilson came to see you yesterday?”Anthony was very surprised at this time. “Mr. Wade, how did you find out about this?”Xyla stuck out her tongue before she said, “Grandpa, I was the one who told Mr. Wade about this…”Anthony started to reprimand Xyla immediately. “Young girl! Mr. Wade is so busy with his own daily affairs, so how could you bother him with something as trivial as this?”Xyla felt very aggrieved at this time.The reason why she
As the saying goes, he should not be rewarded for a merit.Anthony felt that all he did was to refuse to treat Jason and Kenneth. In his opinion, he did not deserve to receive such a precious medicine from Charlie because of this small act of his.However, it did not matter to Charlie at all.If he really wanted to make this medicine, he could easily make thousands of these magical pills in a single day.The main reason why he did not want to make so many of these pills was because he wanted this magical pill to remain precious and valuable.Therefore, giving Anthony an extra magical pill meant nothing to Charlie at all.Charlie said in a light manner, “Mr. Simmons, since you want to stay by my side and share my worries, then you should also know that I will always reward and punish people for their acts. I think that you did very well and I feel you deserve to be rewarded. Therefore, it is only natural for me to reward you. You don’t have to be so polite with me. If I give you a
Jason’s father, Justin, had not said a single word and he simply looked at Elaine up and down. He felt that even though this woman was a little older, she was still a very charming woman. Moreover, she could be considered a more gorgeous and charming woman among all her peers.At this time, he was looking at Elaine with a greedy expression on his face as he thought to himself that when Claire arrived later, he would immediately tie both of them up! After that, he would be able to have some fun with Elaine.If he had the time, he could even have his way with the young and beautiful Claire then!As he thought about this, he smiled before he said to Elaine, “Oh, Miss Elaine, if Claire agrees to get together with Jason, then we can even be in-laws in future!”Elaine looked at Justin before she nodded and said in a flattered manner, “Yes, Mr. Grant. It would be a great blessing to our family if we could become in-laws in future!”Justin smiled before he said, “I think that our children
After that, he took out a black pistol from his waist before he checked it and said in a cold manner, “Alright then. After Charlie arrives, I will just shoot him in the head directly! I will avenge you immediately!”***Claire did not know anything at all.She waited for her mother by the entrance of the riverside villa and at this time, she suddenly saw Elaine trotting out to meet her.Elaine quickly opened the small gate before she said, “Claire! Come in!”Claire also waved at her mother.After that, Claire could not help but asked her mother, “Mom, why haven’t I heard of this friend of yours who lives at the riverside villa before this?”The riverside villa was located on the river bank and it was one of the local high-end communities in Aurous Hill. The people who lived here were all very wealthy and powerful and they were obviously beyond Elaine’s ordinary circle of friends.Elaine grinned before she said, “It’s one of my old classmates. He recently bought a villa here and
