Kathleen’s loud and clear words sent the hall bursting into an uproar. Nobody expected that the Fox family would have a new chairman at such a critical moment.Most surprising of all was the fact that the new chairman was a woman. In the United States, the serious problem of patriarchal ideology was still prevalent in big families. There were many wealthy families in the United States with a net worth of more than ten billion or more. However, almost none would give the leadership position to a woman. Not only that, but Kathleen was still very young. Spencer, the previous head of the family, and Jordan, the head of the family before Spencer stood behind Kathleen in a line. Apparently, the young Kathleen wasn’t joking. With her two predecessors standing for her, it must be true that she was the leader of the Fox family’s new generation.Everyone was shocked.They simply couldn’t understand. Why would the Fox family make such a decision? It might be necessary to find someone to ta

It was extremely rare for anyone to be like Kathleen, who admitted the family’s mistake and took responsibility for them. As such, everyone pushed aside their contempt and began to concentrate on Kathleen’s next words.Kathleen continued sternly, “The reason I say that we, the Fox family, have an unshirkable responsibility is mainly because of the following.”“Firstly, we failed to educate Homer well! We failed to shape his character to be a kind person or instill healthy and good values in him. Thus, his character and his personality went into the extremes. Because of this, he brought innumerable damages to society. We must be held accountable for this!”“Secondly, the Fox family also failed to supervise Homer’s actions. There is great negligence in supervision! Homer has been committing terrible atrocities for so many years, yet we were in the dark and only discovered everything yesterday. This is the Fox family’s failure, as well as a dereliction of duty! Had we discovered this m

“One billion US dollars?!”Kathleen’s words instantly caused the whole world to be in an uproar.In third-world countries, the civil compensation for human life was only a few thousand US dollars. It was only tens of thousands of US dollars in developing countries or hundreds of thousands of US dollars at most.In developed countries, it was true that there would often be some cases with very high compensation, but tens of millions of US dollars would generally be the peak. Moreover, there would generally be a team of top lawyers who would have to be racking their brains to get this kind of compensation that was up to tens of millions of US dollars.So, the victim could only really get a small portion of the compensation, and a large part of it would basically go into the lawyers’ pockets.Nevertheless, Kathleen had said that the Fox family would be compensating one billion US dollars per person as soon as she spoke up. What kind of concept was this?! This was equivalent to gi

However, Kathleen’s method of handling this matter was simply perfect in everyone’s eyes. This was a textbook crisis public relations for all top wealthy families.Still, the price of this public relations was also really big. They would have to fork out twenty or thirty billion US dollars just like that. Some top wealthy people might not even have such courage.When Kathleen saw that everyone was applauding her solution, she finally heaved a sigh of relief. She knew that this crisis public relation was successful.Although she was representing the Fox family and taking most of the blame on behalf of the Fox family, her attitude was sincere enough, and her solution was more than reasonable. Therefore, the people were able to tolerate her.This was also what Charlie had meant when he said to find a way out of an impasse.Standing up straight and taking a beating would always be much better than getting scolded with your head covered.If you took a beating, you would be able to s

Claire’s grandfather had already betrothed her to Charlie in advance before she had graduated from university. After their marriage, she had been working as an invisible person in Wilson Group and so, she really didn’t have much life experience besides having seen the sinister nature of the Wilson family. In her limited social experience, she really couldn’t understand why a person would want to use another identity to befriend others. If the other party was deliberately trying to harm her, it would naturally be justified if she used a fake identity.However, in their interactions, Kathleen had not deceived her, and in the end, Kathleen had even done her a huge favor by introducing her to her idol, Kelly. Kathleen had even gotten her a place in the master class. Therefore, she really couldn’t understand the reason why Kathleen had done this.Still, the fact that Kathleen had hidden her identity from her still made Claire feel very depressed. This was because she sincerely regar

After saying that, Charlie then said again, “I heard a piece of gossip before. Some time ago, Jordan Fox and Kathleen Fox disappeared together. It was said on the internet that both of them were being pursued by Spencer. Now, it seems as though they were really being pursued at that time and were staying hidden at first. Currently, they have returned to the United States to regain control of the Fox family. This can also explain why Miss Jane... oh, no, I mean, Miss Fox, left without saying goodbye and suddenly disappeared. I guess the reason why she didn’t contact you is because she was being pursued at that time.”Claire nodded lightly. Her depressed mood seemed to have eased a lot, and she said softly, “If that’s really the case, it’s not easy for Miss Fox...”Charlie nodded, smiled, and said, “You don’t have to think too much. Since she has already become the head of the Fox family, she should not have any worries anymore. I believe that she will contact you soon and explain the

Kathleen had solved all of the Fox family’s troubles at once, but immediately afterward, more new video evidence was immediately exposed on the internet.However, the protagonists of this evidence were no longer Homer, but wealthy heirs from New York who were found tragically dead in the Hudson River in the morning. This news exploded all over the world again, and the public’s attention immediately shifted from the Fox family to these wealthy families.Meanwhile, these wealthy families did not even care to grieve the tragic death of their own family members. Instead, all of them had a headache over how they could dispel the public’s anger toward them.Although Kathleen had already given them an example, her solution was simply too expensive for others.These wealthy families, who were addicted to money, were unwilling to provide a billion US dollars in compensation for each victim’s family unless they had no other choice and would otherwise die.However, these were no longer iss

She knew that she should really be tougher and uphold her authority as the head of the family especially now.It was just that she was fighting against the entire board of directors alone, which made her feel more or less nervous and uneasy. She did not know exactly where to start.At this time, Charlie spoke up and said, “In my impression, shares and voting rights are in equal proportions. If one person holds 10% of shares, he would have 10% voting rights, and if one person holds more than 51% of the shares, his voting rights would also be 51%. In theory, he would be the majority shareholder with absolute control, then. Am I right?”Kathleen hurriedly said, “Yes, Mr. Wade, that’s right.”Charlie added, “But for many large groups, due to the large number of businesses, many shareholders, and also the public offering of shares, the dilution of equity is great, and in many large groups, the single largest shareholder might only be holding 20% to 30% of the shares, right?”“That’s ri

Charlie actually had to change his opinion of Elaine after seeing her ready to kill Jacob earlier but getting all clingy now.Despite her many flaws, Elaine was the one half of their marriage who was earnestly in love.As for Jacob, he didn't seem to have any genuine feelings for Elaine at all.The mere mention of his past with Elaine always left him grumbling and complaining, but now, it was clear that Elaine was his best choice. With his attitude and the way he did things, he and Matilda would have split up by now even if they had gone to the States together.In the end, Jacob simply had too many of the flaws common amongst men his age, but while others would have no more than five out of twenty of those flaws, he had eighteen.As such, from another perspective entirely, the only woman who could tolerate Jacob now was Elaine and only Elaine. Coincidentally, her straightforward personality and tendency to get violent was the perfect counter against all of Jacob's flaws, reducing

Elaine nodded, emotional as well. "Well, Claire's finally home after being in the States for so long. Let's stop being clowns already—let's go home!"Jacob nodded, utterly relieved and teary-eyed. "Yes! Let's go home!"Meanwhile, Claire was left dumbfounded even as she watched while Charlie was left wiping the sweat off his brow—they had really just snatched victory from the jaws of defeat there!And it looked like they had truly succeeded in clearing any suspicion Elaine had of Matilda, and she most likely would do her best to avoid running into Matilda as well.That way, all the nonsense he had said wouldn't be exposed.Still, as Claire came to her senses, she told Charlie, "Darling, that was amazing! You somehow managed to talk your way out of that!"Charlie chuckled in embarrassment. "I had no choice but to sacrifice my pride for the peace in the family."Claire hugged his arm and giggled happily, "There's no victory without sacrifice. You're the best, dear!"-Meanwhile,

Though Jacob had nothing going for him, he had always had a huge ego, and he had never once admitted that he would lose to anyone in the presence of his wife and daughter.That was why both Elaine and Claire were shocked when he suddenly openly admitted that he was a piece of shit in front of them. They had never heard such a thing from him in the decades they had lived with him!In fact, Jacob himself was reluctant to insult himself like that.However, Charlie told him repeatedly that he absolutely must say it before he came here—because Charlie was dead sure that this line was the key to getting over this impasse, and it truly did put this crisis to rest.Even as Jacob finished, his heart was bleeding as he felt like he had just put his pride on the floor and trampled all over it until it was crushed to oblivion. Even though it was to clear any suspicion Elaine held toward him, to call himself a piece of shit—to say it himself that his beloved woman would think him beneath her,

Before Elaine knew it, she was reading the website she had just read again, and she did indeed find Yolden's name on it.With that, everything Charlie had said snapped together into a perfect chain of logic.Seeing the troubled look on her face, Charlie quickly added, "I'm not going to lie—Dad told me right away when he was told Matilda was getting married. We even discussed if we should tell you, and now you know why." "Matilda is doing so well for herself and got such an amazing husband, and they've picked Shangri-La's Sky Garden—something an average Joe could never hope to reach. And since she invited our whole family and not just us, Dad had to really think about it.""Eventually, he told me to hide it from you or it'd leave you devastated, so none of us said anything. We just didn't think you'd find that invitation and then end up having a big fight about it."Sighing, Charlie then continued, "But if you really want to go, we can go together for their wedding to put your min

Bitterness swelled in Elaine's heart as she really didn't think that Matilda was doing so well for herself.The fact that Matilda was worth millions alone made her far superior.At the same time, she was also rejoicing that she had never actually met Matilda. If Matilda asked how she was doing directly, how would she respond?In the end, Matilda was no Hannah Queen.Elaine would actually feel accomplished if she compared herself to Hannah.On the other hand, Matilda eclipsed Elaine in every way—she was more beautiful, kind, smart, and knowledgeable. Even her figure left Elaine dead in the water!It was as pointless as comparing a hen to a peacock!Whenever she thought of her, she could comfort herself that she had stolen her man even if she couldn't measure up in any way.But now, Jacob was completely insignificant to Matilda while Elaine still treated Jacob like a trophy.Even as a sense of inferiority seized her, Charlie sighed. "Come on, you should understand where Jacob is
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6422
"Exactly!"Charlie agreed, striking the metal while it was hot. "To be honest, the years Matilda spent in the States would be wasted if she was actually still interested!" "She's a Wall Street veteran who'd definitely have met so many successful men! Why would she be interested in a loser like Jacbo Wilson? It's not like she returned from the States after thirty years to help the poor, don't you agree?"Charlie then finished with a sigh. "The way I see it? You're the only one who'd be interested in him."Jacob heard that from behind the wall and was left absolutely fuming and humiliated.He was the only one who knew that Matilda had come back for him—even if she was worth millions now.However, he just didn't have the spine to divorce Elaine and get together with Matilda.He presumed that it was no rush and that he could just give Elaine the silent treatment—who knew, she might just give in and ask for a divorce herself, and then, he would have no issues getting together with M

"Her real lover?!" Elaine exclaimed in shock. "What are you talking about?"Charlie put on a serious face as she said, "Matilda came back to Oskia for her one true love, who is now her fiance. His name is Yolden Hart, a top economist who's now a lecturer at Aurous Hill University, who was invited all the way from the States. He's a professional manager and used to work in Wall Street, so he'd be qualified to be a CEO in any Fortune 500 company…""Professional manager?" Elaine pouted. "That still means he's a wage slave!"Charlie laughed. "Don't underestimate professional managers now. Just look at Apple Inc.'s CEO—the man earns around a hundred million USD per year, and that's over seven hundred million in Oskian dollars!"Elaine was left gaping, unable to imagine how a wage slave could earn so much.At the same time, Charlie continued, "To be fair, Professor Hart wouldn't earn that much, but 50 million per year is still no sweat for him. Do you get the amount of money we're talki

Elaine appeared taken aback, and she promptly demanded, "You've met Matilda too?!"It was only then that Claire realized she had let the cat out of the bag, and she suddenly didn't know what to say. "Oh… Uh… Mom… I, uh… didn't?"Nonetheless, Elaine was suddenly pressing her menacingly, "If you've never met her, how would you know she's a serious person?!"As Claire stayed silent, Elaine broke down in tears. "No… You're lying to me too! Aren't you?!"While Claire was left at a loss of how she should salvage this mess, Charlie suddenly entered and said, "Claire didn't—but I did.""What?!" Elaine was left staring at Charlie, stunned.Still, she soon demanded, "Y-You've met Matilda?! Did Jacob take you with him to see her?""Yes," Charlie admitted, nodding.Elaine snapped right then, and she bellowed, "Then why didn't you tell me?! To think that I've always done right by you, treating you like my own son, but you wouldn't tell me that Jacob is cheating on me! Y-You disappoint me!"

Jacob certainly left Charlie speechless—the man might get kicked out of the house, but he was more worried about his car.Sighing in exasperation, he told Jacob, "Look, if it fails, I won't be able to get you a nice place, let alone leave the Cullinan with you."Jacob blurted out, "But why—""Don't forget—I'm still living in this house even if you're gone!" Charlie explained, his expression dead serious. "If I let you have a nice place and the Cullinan, God knows how terrible a grudge your wife would hold against me. I need to have a sense of self-preservation too!""If I got you a rundown apartment, I could at least defend myself even if she gets upset about that. I mean, I can't let you sleep in the streets, can I? Claire and I would be guilty of abandoning our elders."Seeing the serious look on Charlie's face, Jacob breathed a long sigh as he clapped him on the shoulder, groaning mournfully, "Oh, I get it. I wouldn't want to upset Elaine if I were in your shoes too…"Charlie
