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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 4339
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

Fleur had repeatedly mentioned the conspiracy theory of Ashley using a body double over the last twenty years.Tarlon had investigated from many different angles, but everything from the gender, age, dental records, to body figure pointed to the fact that the deceased was Ashley Acker.And yet, Fleur had never bought it, insisting that Curtis was prepared for them just because Curtis' son had gone missing soon after.There was no way Curtis would save his son but not his wife, and the disfigured corpse only added fuel to Fleur's suspicion.Thus, over the last twenty years, Fleur had kept a close eye on the Ackers, arranging for two 'scholars' to be embedded amongst their ranks as sleeper agents. She went that far all to determine if Ashley was dead or had faked her death.However, the scholars had since been killed in action, and they had no spies within the Ackers left.As for Tarlon, he still doubted Fleur's theory even now, but he remained respectful as he spoke, "Milady, I mu

Meanwhile, on the edge of the South Pole, Tarlon Griffin rushed outside of Fleur Griffin's room, knocking the door gingerly as he announced, "I have news, my lady!"Fleur didn't respond, but the thick wooden door between them slowly opened as if pushed by an invisible force.Tarlon entered to find Fleur seated on the floor with her legs crossed at the ankles. Her eyes remained closed as she molded her Reiki, asking, "What is it?"Tarlon quickly answered, "News from Oskia. The Ackers are partnering with the Wades on a joint venture into electric-powered vehicles."Fleur slowly opened her eyes, asking quietly, "And you're telling me because?"Tarlon quickly explained, "It just came out of the blue, so I thought I should report it to you right away."Fleur sighed. "After I tried and failed to wipe out the Ackers so many times, they wouldn't dare set foot stateside. If anything, they must have decided to seek asylum in Oskia by offering a substantial investment, and it's a base whe

Silent for a while, Matilda then asked Yolden, "Do you think I can do it?""Yes!" Yolden nodded without hesitation. "You definitely won't have any problems!"Matilda sighed, shaking her head. "We traveled far abroad to study while we were young, but we didn't return to Oskia to help the country's development. It's been thirty years since, and now that we have returned to the country at the same time, I definitely wouldn't turn down such an opportunity to help."Pausing, she then said, "That said, major corporations make it a point to not hire family members. Forget spouses—employees aren't allowed to date, and one of the two will be asked to resign if necessary."Don't you think it's inappropriate since we are legally married, having gotten our certificate and all? And if we set these precedents, we would have trouble asking other employees to follow that policy. You are going to be a CEO, so you need a very clear answer on this issue."Yolden shrugged. "In the first place, that p

Yolden nodded slightly. "He does.""My gosh…" Matilda murmured. "That's too much… Ashley's son? A member of the Acker family and the Wades?!"Pausing, she then asked in confusion, "Wait, if Charlie has so much power and influence, why would he permanently reside in Aurous Hill… No, why would he be content as Jacob Wilson's son-in-law? Does Jacob know who he really is?""Definitely not," Yolden shook his head. "There were some compelling circumstances, and his identity is a sensitive one. That's why I'm asking you to tell no one except Paul—and even then, you should only tell him if he can keep the secret."Matilda was sharp enough to pick up on the reasoning, too. "Charlie's hiding because of his parents' accident, isn't he?""Yes," Yolden sighed. "He has his plans, but I didn't pry since I can only do that much, let alone help him on that.""Got it," Matilda nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry. My lips are sealed… And you just said you're resigning? Are you going to help with this e

"That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega

In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega

Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki
