Chapter 371

Author: Lord Leaf
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

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 7273

    Both Jeevika and Stephen nodded without hesitation, though the latter was already used to it.The last time he fled the Wades, he promptly got on a boat bound for Tahiti, where he started a life off the grid. It was all because he feared that Charlie would find him, and just a little Reiki would make him talk.It was the first time that Jeevika learned that such a thing was possible, but his expression was determined. "Don't worry, Suzanne. I may have devoted myself to religion, but Madam Wade's orders come above all else. If I should fail, I shall disappear and never again use the title of Master Jeevika."Suzanne nodded in satisfaction, but her expression was solemn. "The three of us owe both Mr. and Madam Wade, and have come to learn the sheer desperation Madam Wade went through in her resistance against the Qing Eliminating Society. "Thank the gods that Charlie proved himself and we may yet see the fall of the Qing Eliminating Society. Even so, he remains a big fish in a small

    Claire didn't tell Charlie or her parents about going to the Qi Temple, as she believed that praying for her family was fine without them knowing, or announcing it out loud.So early next morning, before Elaine and Jacob woke up, she drove straight to QI Temple.The days were cold and the nights longer before the Oskian New Year, and the sun was barely up when Claire headed outside.A group of devotees was already at the gates, always intent on claiming the first offerings in Qi Temple, happily oblivious that the famous Master Jeevika was visiting again.Jeevika was seated cross-legged in a chamber behind the Feather Hall, chanting a mantra while charging the Reiki in his body.He was only wearing a kasaya, but he felt warm as spring.The hall was closed for the day, and there was a partition raised to cut off the entrance into the hall itself, with a sign that read 'closed for the day' as well.After putting everything in place, every monk retreated outside, quietly guarding th

    Claire thought she would be the first, but Momo Sun—her most reliable subordinate, had arrived already.Seeing the other woman, she smiled, "What brings you here this early?""Good Morning, Ms. Wilson," Momo smiled in greeting. "Actually, I went to the Qi Temple, hoping to get a health charm for the family… but I got nothing. It's so frustrating!""Got nothing? How?" Claire asked in curiosity. "Were they closed?""Oh, they were open," Momo shrugged. "But I misremembered Master Jeevika's schedule—he's only coming tomorrow, so I went for nothing.""Master Jeevika?" Claire frowned, murmuring. "Actually, I think I've heard of that name before."Momo grinned. "He's quite famous—one of the youngest high monks in the country, whose insight into Buddhism far surpasses most. He has been traveling between every major temple for the past two years, giving sermons and blessing mystic items. And it's said that his charms are special.""Really?" Claire exclaimed in surprise."Of course!" Mom

    Suzanne's words cleared any qualms Stephen had, and he asked her, "So, when do you think I should make contact with Ms. Wilson, talk to her about it?"Suzanne replied, "Jeevika will be arriving at the Qi Temple in two days, first thing in the morning. Madam Wade's instruction was to lure Ms. Wilson over, and then Jeevika will create an opportunity for you both to have a talk.""Jeevika…" Stephen smiled and asked, "He's now a famous monk, I believe?""Yes," Suzanne nodded and sighed. "He's wise in both Tao and Buddhism, and progressed rapidly thanks to Madam Wade's guidance. Even after his initiation into the Buddhist order, he still serves Madam Wade before anyone else.""And how do we lure Ms. Wilson over?" Stephen asked.Suzanne smiled. Are you aware that Ms. Wilson owns a company?""Of course," Stephen nodded. "It was Charlie who encouraged her to start out with her own workshop, with plenty of bigwigs in Aurous Hill heading over to celebrate its opening.""Yes," Suzanne repl

    As Stephen finished, he looked up at the moon, shrouded by clouds up in the air.Taking a deep breath of the dank, cold winter air, he then sighed. 'I'll be honest—I'm not used to the coldness of the south, and I can't help remembering Charlie. During his first winter at the orphanage, he would be curling into himself under his blanket from the cold."The place was simply rundown and didn't have a room heater, and only a single sheet of glass insulated the windows. I really wanted to do something for him, but was worried that it would draw the wrong attention and had to allow him to suffer frostbite for the first time. I was in Eastcliff, only able to weep for him that winter…"Suzanne nodded and sighed. "The orphanage director sent photos of his limbs and ears getting bruised from the cold, and Madam Wade was often crying looking at them. But in hindsight, those hard times were essential for his life. Without it, there's no way he would have become the man he is today."Stephen no

    After taking a few days' break at Aurous Hill, Charlie flew to Gaston down south.With the year-end of the Oskian calendar, the days were becoming colder, so Gaston was a good spot with its warmer climate.Tanya's last stop was in Rochester, and once the last concert was over, he would fly back to Aurous Hill immediately, and boarded a flight to the Maldives with his family.He was starting to feel spent after tagging along with Tanya's tour, and couldn't wait to get some proper rest during the Oskian New Year.It was not physical fatigue either—he just needed to set his mind at ease and unwind.But while he followed Tanya's tour to Gaston, a freighter had berthed in Gaston's East Harbor.It was an Oskian-registered freighter returning home. The crew would unload all shipments before taking a break, and then weigh anchor for another voyage to Europe.And amongst them was a geezer working as a chef, whom everyone called Mr. Marsden. In reality, he was Stephen Thompson, who serv

    Having seen a sliver of the common folk's plight, Julien turned back to the journey at hand.Soon, his MPV arrived at Aurous Hill's Antique Street.As it was closing hours, the place appeared bleak, almost as though it had been completely abandoned. It was only during opening hours and the few hou

    Merlin asked, " Can we really get in? Port security is usually very strict.""Don't worry, I have a plan," Charlie grinned. "Still, let's get to our room first. We should have a bird's eye view of the port since it's on the top floor."With that, they checked in, received their room cards, and he

    At that point, Zachary had completely acknowledged the fact that he had lost.As he understood that he was no match for Raymond, he knew he would get into more trouble if he kept trying to screw with him.That was why he knew all too well that if he wanted to resolve this crisis, Jacob was the onl
