In her Rolls-Royce, Jasmine sent Charlie all the way to the supermarket.Soon, the majestic Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the supermarket. Charlie said to Jasmine as he exited the car, “Thanks for the ride. Bye.”Jasmine nodded at him, her expression complex and ambiguous. “Have a nice day, Master Wade. You’re always welcome at Glorious Club, please come to enjoy the facilities whenever you’re available, I’ll always be there and will personally serve you myself.”Charlie smiled lightly and replied, “Okay, I’ll drop by when I’m free. Bye.”Jasmine nodded. “Okay, Master Wade, bye.”She bid farewell to Charlie respectfully. As she watched him disappear into the crowded supermarket, she sighed, crestfallen.She felt very unjust and disappointed when Charlie, the true dragon with superb strength, had to rush to the supermarket to buy ingredients to make dinner before his wife got off work.She had met Claire before. Indeed, Claire was very beautiful and elegant as she did, but Clai
After getting home and finished making dinner, Jacob, who had been out all day, came home first, then followed by Claire who had been busy at work the whole day.After all the food was served on the table, Elaine hurried back happily and said proudly, “Hey guys, I won more than seven grand from playing cards today!”Jacob gasped reflexively, “Wow, dear, that’s awesome! Seven grand a day, that’s two hundred and ten grand a month!”Claire frowned, displeased. “Mom, I don’t mind if you play cards occasionally in your leisure time and a little winning is understandable too, but seven grand a day? Isn’t that a bit too much? Careful not to get addicted, it’s very risky!”Elaine waved her hand in disdain and snapped, “Hey, I know what I’m doing, don’t you come to lecture me about it. My card mates are a bunch of rookies, they are far worse than me. I can win even with my eyes closed! Don’t you know your mom’s nickname around here? The Queen of Cards, that’s me!”Claire sighed helplessly
Honestly, Charlie didn’t want to go. In fact, he would even reject Claire’s offer if it wasn’t for Elaine meddling between them like that.The reason why he didn’t want to go was that he was rather repulsed by Loreen right now.Ever since Loreen found out that he was her life savior and her dream lover after he rescued her for the second time, she had been confessing to him repeatedly.Now that she asked his wife to the hot springs and insisted on inviting him, his wife might be the cover for her real intention of wanting to see him.It would be very awkward and unpleasant if he did go.However, he was irritated and annoyed by Elaine’s babbling and nagging.‘You don’t want me to go, huh? I will go then! Bite me!’Elaine didn’t expect Charlie to disobey her. She was panting and huffing with anger, but she couldn’t say anything in front of Claire.Since Charlie had agreed to go, Claire said, “Loreen booked rooms at Champs Elys Spa Resort in the suburbs, it is said to be the prope
Before going out, Charlie was still a little hesitant and reluctant.He didn’t know how to deal with a passionate and bold girl like Loreen. He didn’t want to hurt her feelings and more importantly, he didn’t want to betray Claire.He was in a complete dilemma right now.He was worried that Loreen would confess to him again during the hot springs getaway and she might make an even bolder move too.On the other hand, since he had promised his wife, it was impossible to retract his promise, so he could only go ahead with the plan.As they went downstairs, they saw Loreen poking her head out of a Mercedes-Benz and saying, “Charlie, put the luggage in the trunk and sit in the back. Let Claire sit in the front and chat with me on the way!”“Okay!” Charlie nodded, put the luggage in the trunk, and squeezed into the back seat.When he sat down, Loreen turned and winked at him shyly.Pretending not to see it, Charlie stretched himself and said, “Oh, I’m so tired. I didn’t sleep well la
Loreen was very upset and pissed as well. She was the daughter of the Thomas family and there was no way she would take the blame so innocently, so she pushed the door, got out of the car immediately, and shouted back, “Hey, shut up! It’s your fault in the first place! Can’t you see I was reversing into the spot? Are you f*cking blind? How dare you scold me first!”The young man did not expect that Loreen would talk back at him. He yelled, “Oh my f*cking god, another stupid female driver! Nine out of ten dumbest drivers on the road are women! Can you even f*cking drive? If you can’t, go back to your mother’s womb and learn how to drive before you come out again, don’t embarrass yourself like this!”Then, he added, “I’ve just bought this car for a hundred grand and you’ve scratched it, goddamnit! How much do you want to pay?”Loreen frowned and retorted, “Hey, first things first! I saw the space first and was already halfway into it when you came out of nowhere and tried to snatch th
The young man turned back to Charlie with a vicious look and cursed, “Hey, kid, you’d better compensate us while I’m still asking nicely! My girlfriend and I want to go to the hot springs, so be a good dog, and get the hell out of here!”Charlie said coldly, “What if I don’t want to?”The young man sneered. “A bunch of poor, pretentious jerks. Wait here, I’ll let you know the consequences of not paying.”Then, he took out his phone and started calling someone. “Hey, Mr. Hicks, I came to your resort and some idiots scratched my car at the bloody parking lot. They’ve refused to compensate me and are messing with me right now. Get some guys here right away!”After ending the call, the young man smirked and said, “Loser, I’ll give you one last chance to to compensate me for the damage and apologize to me right now. When Mr. Hicks comes here later, you’re gonna be so dead!”Loreen was afraid that Charlie would get hurt so she quickly said, “Okay, fine, it’s my unlucky day today. How m
The young man was outraged when Charlie suddenly stopped Loreen and was so direct with him. He growled, “Okay, jerk, if you want to be killed, be my guest! I’ll strip my last name off if I don’t beat you half to death later!”Charlie said flatly, “Since you like to show off so much, I can suggest a new last name for you—showoff.”“Motherf*cker!” The young man was so pissed that he was about to jump on Charlie any second now.Right at this moment, a chubby middle-aged man sprinted towards them with a few brawny guards in tow.The young man smiled as soon as he laid eyes on the chubby man. “Hey, Mr. Hicks, I haven’t seen you in a few days, you’re getting bigger now. It seems that you have quite an enjoyable life, huh!”Mr. Hicks giggled and said, “Mr. Lloyd, how can my life be comparable to yours? I’m just one of the menial staff members under Mr. Cameron, unlike you with your big and diversified family business.”Then, he quickly asked, “By the way, Mr. Lloyd, what’s going on here
“Hey, what’s going on? What’s with the noise?”Mr. Hicks shuddered in shock when he heard the voice. He turned around and said respectfully, “Don Albert, are you done with your hot springs? How is it?”“Good,” Albert answered indifferently and then asked, “What are you doing there?”Albert said this while walking towards the parking with his men.“Oh, it’s just some pathetic jerk hitting Mr. Lloyd. I was about to avenge him. The kid isn’t very capable but is very skittish.”Clutching his stomach, Marcus greeted, “Hi, Uncle Rhodes, long time no see.”Albert looked at him and laughed. “Oh, it’s you, Marcus! Hey, what’s wrong with your charisma? How can you be beaten in Aurous Hill? You put your father’s reputation to shame!”Albert and Marcus’s father were quite close, so Marcus could be considered his nephew. He spoke rather directly and in an elderly manner.Marcus didn’t dare to talk back to Albert, so he said sheepishly, “Uncle Rhodes, I bumped into some miserable jerk. I’ll
