When Kenneth thought about the fact that the disappearance of the father and son of the Grant family might have something to do with Charlie, Kenneth could not help but feel very nervous.If Charlie could really let the father and son evaporate from the face of this world, then he was afraid that Charlie would also get rid of him…Moreover, since the father and son had already disappeared, he would not be able to get his hands on Anthony’s magic medicine.After all, there would not be any substitute for a dead man and he should not do anything to provoke Anthony at this time.As everyone was keeping silent, Lady Wilson suddenly looked at Kenneth in a flattering manner as she said in a humble manner, “Mr. Wilson, should we head to one of the big hospitals in Eastcliff instead? Perhaps you’d be able to find a cure for your illness then.”Kenneth was the final life-saving straw for the entire Wilson family and Lady Wilson felt even more anxious than him at this time. If Kenneth could
Wendy dressed up very beautifully today. She wore a black figure-hugging dress that was worth over a hundred thousand dollars. The dress revealed her beautiful curves and figure and she put on heavy makeup tonight.Even though she was not as beautiful as Claire or Jasmine, she could easily get most men excited after putting on some makeup and dressing up in some revealing clothing.When she heard that she was going to meet the young lord of the Weaver family, she was also a little excited.Although the Weaver family was not one of the top families in Aurous Hill, it was still a much stronger and more powerful family compared to the Wilson family.Now that the Wilson family was still struggling, Wendy also hoped that she would be able to get to know more wealthy and powerful people. If she was fortunate enough, she might have the opportunity to bring some improvements and business to the Wilson family.Kenneth and Wendy continued waiting in the private room for a short while when s
As soon as Wendy heard his question, she did not answer but she looked at Kenneth with an awkward expression on her face.She did not dare to say that she had no boyfriend because she was Kenneth’s lover.However, she did not tell any outsiders that she was Kenneth’s lover. After all, Kenneth had a family of his own. She did not want to ruin or break his family apart. If that was the case, and if she said that she was his lover, then she would definitely cause more trouble for him. If that happened, she would only be making things difficult for herself.Unexpectedly, Kenneth was actually very straightforward at this time. He did not bother to hide the truth and he simply smiled before he told Jeffrey, “Brother Jeffrey, let me tell you the truth. Wendy is actually my lover. However, I hope you’ll keep this to yourself and not tell anyone else about this.”Jeffrey felt very regretful at this time. He initially thought that Wendy was Kenneth’s niece. Who would have known that it was j
Kenneth’s originally delightful face suddenly became very heavy.Even though it was very important for him to regain his manhood, his life was even more important!He should not risk his own life just so that he could continue fooling around with women, right?When Jeffrey saw the sudden change in his expression, he asked in a curious manner, “Chairman Wilson, are you…facing any unspeakable difficulties now?”Kenneth had a helpless expression on his face before he said, “You’re right, Brother Jeffrey. I’m a living eunuch now. I can’t do anything at all! I paid a visit to the hospital and the doctor said there’s no way for him to help me at all. Therefore, you have to help me!”After that, he hurriedly asked, “Would it be too toxic if I used the medicine that your old man used just once or twice? Could you let me try the medicine for myself?”Jeffrey quickly replied, “Brother, I wouldn’t advise you to try that medicine at all! It wouldn’t be worth it at all if you harmed your own
Wendy felt a little unwilling inside.She hoped that she could continue to become Kenneth’s lover and she hoped that Kenneth could introduce her to more wealthy and powerful people.This way, with the help of Kenneth’s connections, she would be able to get more contacts and gradually become a very powerful woman in Aurous Hill.At that time, not only would she be able to obtain a lot of benefits for herself, but she would also be able to bring about a lot of benefits to Wilson Group. Moreover, Wendy would also become a very prominent leader and figure of Wilson Group.Unexpectedly, she was nothing but a tool to Kenneth. In an effort to obtain the medicine to regain his manhood, he was so willing to hand her over to Jeffrey just like that?She wanted to continue being Kenneth’s lover and she wanted to continue living an upper-class life. However, she did not want to be a plaything shared among the upper-class men. As soon as people hear about her reputation as a plaything, then she
After she was abandoned by her fiancé, Gerald, she became Kenneth’s lover. Unexpectedly, Kenneth simply regarded her as a tool and plaything that he could just throw to Jeffrey. Who would Jeffrey push her to after he got tired of her then?At this time, she could not help but think of her cousin, Claire.Claire had never put some much thought into men. Moreover, Claire had never been in any relationship before and she married Charlie without any hesitation at all. However, even though Charlie was just a worthless piece of trash, he would never allow her to be insulted in this manner…In contrast, she might not necessarily be a winner.Jeffrey hugged Wendy tightly in his arms as he said to Kenneth with a wry expression on his face, “Don’t worry, Kenneth. I’ll send you the medicine to restore your manhood as soon as we have fully gathered the prescription for the medication.”“Fantastic!” Kenneth replied with a smile. He was very relieved at this time. “I will wait for your good new
Charlie asked, “Why are you looking for me?”Jasmine smiled slightly before she said, “Well, the Moore family has invested in a high-end entertainment club and I want to give you an All Access Supreme VIP membership card. I am waiting outside your house now.”Charlie replied in a casual manner, “Alright then, you can come in. I’m home.”Jasmine hurriedly replied, “That’s great! I will come over now.”Charlie hung up the phone after that.A few minutes later, Jasmine rang his doorbell.As soon as he opened the door, Charlie’s eyes lit up immediately.Jasmine was wearing a long, black evening gown and it was a very tightly fitted dress which showed off her thin waist and beautiful curves perfectly. Her long and fair legs shone like a beautiful piece of jade under her dress.Coupled with her glamorous and elegant face, Jasmine really looked very beautiful and exquisite.Charlie could not help but take a few more looks at Jasmine because she was so beautiful today.“Mr. Wade.”I
Charlie replied lightly, “Tell me about it.”Jasmine hurriedly replied, “Mr. Wade, our family has invested more than one billion dollars in Glorious Club and it is regarded as a relatively large investment for our family. I am afraid of us making any mistakes. Therefore, I hope you’ll be able to come and help me take a look at the club to see if the Feng Shui of the club is good. If there are any problems, I’d like to stop any disaster from happening before it’s too late.”Jasmine was a little nervous at this time because she did not know whether Charlie would agree to her request. Therefore, she could only stare anxiously at Charlie with her big and bright eyes.Charlie smiled faintly as soon as he heard Jasmine’s words. The Moore family had already performed well and Jasmine had always been very loyal to him. Moreover, Jasmine even came to his house personally to ask for his help and she was also very polite and respectful towards him. So, Charlie felt that it would not hurt for h
After that, Charlie asked with a bit of curiosity, "When did you and Matilda decide to get married?" Yolden smiled sheepishly and explained, "Remember when the city organized our cultural exchange trip to South Korea? I confessed to Matilda during that trip, and she accepted. After spending some time together, we both felt we were a great match. Considering our age, we didn't want to delay such an important decision any longer, so we decided to take the next step and build a family together." He continued, "Last month, we went to Lambonear for a few days. I bought a ring and proposed to her by the seaside, and she said yes. We also sought the opinion of our respective children—Autumn and Paul—and they were both very supportive. Both kids are exceptional and independent, so they urged us to have the wedding as soon as possible. I wanted to wait until you returned so I could check your schedule. For our wedding, we'd like to ask you to be our officiant." "What? Me as the officiant?
Charlie said without hesitation, "Sure. When is it convenient for you? Send me the address, and I'll go meet you." Charlie had always respected Yolden not only because he was a nice and talented man but also because he and his mother went way back and went to the same school. Yolden said hastily, "I've just come from Senior University. It's the weekend, and I don't have classes today. Why don't you send me the address and I'll meet you?" Charlie gave it some thought. It was a little past 3 p.m., so Yolden had likely already had lunch, and there were still a few hours until dinner. Inviting him to The Heaven Springs didn't seem ideal for a discussion. Considering that he had lived in the United States for many years and probably had a habit of having coffee in the afternoon, Charlie said, "How about this? There's a Starbucks not far south of the university. Let's meet there for a cup of coffee." "Perfect!" Yolden said with a smile. "I was just thinking you could give me an addre
On the way back to The Heaven Springs, Julien was in a much better mood than when he had arrived. Initially, he was filled with anxiety, unsure of what Charlie had planned. But now, everything had become clear. The troublesome matter of Salem and Edmund was no longer his concern. All he had to do was wait for the video from the ship to be released and then head back home. Charlie noticed his improved mood and smiled as he asked, "Julien, you've resolved the most critical matter right after landing in Aurous Hill. You must be feeling pretty happy, right?" Julien chuckled and said, "To be honest, before coming here, I was worried that I'd end up going back empty-handed and being secretly mocked by others. But now, it's different. Once your video is released, no one can blame me for not doing my job. If anything, they can only blame their family for missing their chance. After all, so much time has passed, and it's their fault Salem and Edmund were moved to the Middle East." As he
"Good." With a light nod, Charlie turned to Jiro and spoke up, "Jiro, I'll give you a chance to prove yourself." "Okay, Mr. Wade!" Jiro beamed excitedly. "Please tell me what to do! I promise I will do my best to serve you." Charlie smiled and said, "Once the ship is ready, you'll board it together with them. Your only task is to keep a close watch on them the entire time. Don't let them pull any tricks. If you succeed, you'll be a free man here. You'll get a basic monthly salary and can ask for anything you like within reason—so long as it's not contraband, it will be yours." Hearing this, Jiro was so thrilled that he trembled all over. His current treatment was already decent, but he was still only a semi-free man. He didn't dare casually set foot on the ground outside. If he could become a truly free man, he would be able to enjoy the sunlight outdoors freely. More importantly, from then on, he would have a salary. Although he couldn't personally go out shopping, having a sa
Julien had uncovered Charlie's true identity quite some time ago and investigated Charlie's background. He was well aware that Charlie had become the head of the Wade family and that the Acker family fully supported him. Although the outside world believed that Ten Thousand Armies had subdued the Wade family, Julien had witnessed Charlie's methods firsthand. Even the top two figures of the Rothschild family had been toyed with by Charlie, so how could Ten Thousand Armies possibly make him surrender? Thus, Julien deduced that Ten Thousand Armies was undoubtedly Charlie's covert tool. Considering the combined strength of the Wade family, the Acker family, and Charlie's personally cultivated forces, it was evident that Charlie even had the power to contend with the entire Rothschild family. Moreover, with the life-extending pill in his possession and the life of the Rothschild family head in his hands, Charlie's chances of prevailing in a confrontation against the Rothschilds were e
Enraged, Julien cursed while angrily raising his leg, "Damn it! How dare you negotiate your terms now?!" Charlie stopped him and said, "Calm down. 1 billion dollars is quite a good amount. You offer 100 million, he offers 1 billion—doesn't that mean I'll make 1.1 billion?" Dumbfounded, Julien said, "Mr. Wade, how can you even take that money? Wouldn't taking the money expose you?" Charlie smiled and said, "That's simple. I'll give you a plan that not only makes your task impossible to complete but also gives me a chance to collect the money. What do you think?" "What's the idea?" Julien asked in surprise. Charlie replied, "Here's the plan, I'll have someone put these two on a cargo ship bound for the Middle East. Once the ship passes Sri Lanka and enters the Arabian Sea, I'll have them record a video with the endless ocean as the backdrop. In the video, they'll inform their family to prepare 1 billion dollars. The money will be transferred directly in cryptocurrency." "Once
Salem cursed angrily, "You bastard! We've been desperately waiting for you to rescue us, but now you want to kill us! Are you even human?!" Julien kicked Salem far away and shouted furiously, "Damn it! You should be glad this is Oskia and not America! Otherwise, I would have shot you dead on the spot, you bastard! And your son too!" Then, Julien looked at Charlie very seriously and said, "Mr. Wade, please give me a chance! Give me a gun, and I'll take care of these two scumbags right now!" Edmund and Salem, terrified, knelt on the ground, with Edmund desperately pleading, "Mr. Wade, please spare us! Please!" Salem crawled to Charlie and wailed, "Mr. Wade, please don't believe anything Julien says! If you let him kill us, it will cause you unnecessary trouble. Just pretend that nothing happened today and let us continue to be imprisoned here!" Charlie grinned as he watched the scene and said to Julien, "If you want to kill them, go ahead, I won't stop you, but you can't take t
Salem was stunned by Julien's slap. He covered his face, looked at Julien in shock and sorrow, and sobbed, "But... but I'm older than you... I was given that middle name first." Instead of calming down, Julien became even angrier. He slapped Salem again and furiously scolded, "When your damn father found out my middle name was also Steve, why didn't he change yours? Acting above your station—who gave you the guts?!" Salem's face was swollen on both sides, and his heart was filled with even greater indignation. Crying, he pleaded, "Sir, now isn't the time to blame me for sharing your middle name! You need to figure out a way to get my son and me out of here!" "Get you out?!" Julien laughed in exasperation, pointing at him with rage. "Your wretched son committed such heinous crimes, yet you still expect me to save you? I'd rather kill you both myself to ease Mr. Wade's anger!" Julien's words were not idle talk. For him, the task in Aurous Hill had only two possible outcomes:
Charlie warned with a cold and stern voice, "You must tell him everything you did, or I will make you eat dog food for a month." Trembling in fear, Salem quickly said, "O-okay... This is what happened... My son, he was momentarily misguided..." As he spoke, he detailed how Edmund had become infatuated with Doris and the Emgrand Group. He went on to describe how Edmund had poisoned Doris's father, leaving him in critical condition with kidney failure and then used the promise of a kidney transplant to coerce Doris into submission. Since Charlie was standing right there, Salem didn't dare to omit or conceal a single detail. When he finished, Charlie sneered, "You really are a shameless piece of trash. You just described your son's series of despicable actions in meticulous detail. The careful planning and the step-by-step execution—this clearly shows that it was premeditated and deliberate. Yet, from the start, you tried to excuse him by calling it a momentary lapse in judgment.
