Charlie called Porter after Claire had agreed for him to go to Hong Kong.As soon as the call was connected, Porter, who was on the other end of the line, asked, “Master Wade, have you discussed this matter with your wife? Will you be able to come over to help me?”Charlie said, “My wife and I have already discussed this matter. You’re lucky that my mother-in-law has happened to just arrive in the United States. So, she can help me take care of my wife. Otherwise, I really would not be able to go over to help you.”Porter hurriedly said, “That’s great! Master Wade, what time would be suitable for you? I will arrange for a business jet from the United States to send you here!”Charlie excused himself and said, “There is no need for you to send a business jet here. I can just buy a flight ticket.”Porter said, “It will take you at least twenty hours or more if you come here on a connecting flight. Moreover, you might not be able to buy the earliest ticket. It would be faster for you

“Okay!” Claire nodded heavily and then said, “Hurry up and go in. Aren’t you taking off at eight o’clock? There’s only half an hour left.” “Okay.” Charlie got out of the car, and after Claire had sat back in the car, he waved at her and said, “Honey, I’ll go first. Drive carefully on your way back.”Claire nodded obediently and said softly, “Tell me in advance when you’re done, and I’ll come and pick you up at the airport when you come back.”“Okay!”Charlie watched Claire drive away before he turned around and walked into the airport.After a simple security check, he boarded the business jet arranged by Porter.The plane took off on time at eight o’clock and flew toward Hong Kong at great speed. Fourteen hours later, it was already ten o’clock in the morning in Hong Kong.The business jet that Charlie was on was still more than an hour away from Hong Kong. So, Charlie called Autumn and told her that he was going to reach Hong Kong soon. He asked her to notify Shawn to mee

Autumn did not expect that Shawn would want Charlie to stay at his house. However, Autumn did not know what Charlie’s purpose was in visiting Shawn. So, she did not dare to agree on Charlie’s behalf without his authorization, and she said, “Mr. Long, you should wait until you meet him in person and talk to him about this personally. See what he wants, then.”“Okay!” Shawn smiled and said, “Miss Hart, please rest assured that I will definitely let him feel the enthusiasm and warmth of Hong Kong!”Autumn said, “Okay. My assistant’s name is Charlie Wade. Make sure you write his name on a sign and hold up the sign at the entrance of the airport. He will go to you when he sees it.”“No problem!” Shawn said immediately without hesitation, “I’ll get ready to leave now, then!”After that, he hung up the phone and said to Jenna, “Get the maids to clean up the largest guest room on the second floor. We need to entertain a distinguished guest first!” Jenna asked in surprise, “Shawn, what

Jenna muttered, “Your daughter does not even listen to you, so why would she listen to me when I’m just her stepmother? You’d better call her yourself if you want to call her to come over...”Shawn was a little dissatisfied with Jenna’s attitude, but after hesitating for a moment, he waved his hand and said helplessly, “Forget it. I’ll talk to her when I’m on the way later! Go and make all the arrangements for everything else!” “Okay!” Jenna did not dare to refuse, and she nodded in a hurry. Meanwhile, Charlie received a phone call from Autumn and learned that Shawn actually wanted to invite him to stay at his house. He was surprised, and he could not help but think that it was ridiculous. So, he called Porter, and as soon as the call was connected, Charlie asked him, “Porter, where are you now?”Porter said respectfully, “Mr. Wade, I’m preparing to go to the airport to pick you up now.”Charlie informed him, “Porter, you don’t need to pick me up at the airport today. I plan t

An hour later, the plane that Charlie was on landed at Hong Kong International Airport. Meanwhile, at the exit of the airport. The famous Hong Kong tycoon, Shawn, was personally holding a sign with the words ‘Charlie Wade’ written on it. He was really looking forward to Charlie’s arrival as he stood at the airport exit with his wife, Jenna.Jenna was wearing thick sunglasses and a mask, and she had a somewhat unhappy expression on her face.She did not know much about business, but she felt that as Hong Kong’s famous Mrs. Long, it was embarrassing for her to be picking someone up at the airport in person.Shawn did not care about that. He knew very well that a businessman must absolutely never have any trouble with money. If he only had to sacrifice a little of his reputation so that this collaboration could go smoothly, wouldn’t this be a great deal, then?At this time, Charlie was carrying a backpack as he walked out of the exit.He looked around and soon saw the fat man

Although Charlie was speaking vaguely, he was actually pointing these two people out.Even though Charlie did not say anything about Jenna’s specific deeds, the couple coincidentally thought of Jenna’s elopement with Janus. For so many years, this incident had been Jenna’s weakness in front of Shawn, and this was also the source of Shawn’s deepest pain. Charlie was implicitly pointing to this fact, which in turn made these two people feel extremely uncomfortable.The reason why Charlie had said this was also completely intentional.He simply wanted to see how much patience Shawn would have in front of him. He was merely provoking Shawn a little bit for now. If Shawn could endure it, there would be bigger provocations waiting for him later.It would be great if Shawn could lose his temper in front of him now.After all, Charlie had flown all the way here from the United States this time to specifically teach him how to behave.Moreover, what Charlie was best at was using som

Charlie had already read all of Shawn’s information before his plane had landed.This old man was very flirtatious, and out of his three marriages, he had five children.The eldest of his five children was his eldest daughter, Marianne. Shawn’s first wife had given birth to Marianne. Marianne was twenty-four years old this year, and she was studying for a doctorate in the Literature Department at Hong Kong University. Marianne’s mother had died of cervical cancer when she was five years old, and a year after her mother’s death, her father, Shawn, had married an actress from the Hong Kong entertainment industry who was ten years younger than him.A few years later, Jenna had come back from the United States. Shawn had then divorced his second wife and married Jenna instead.Shawn’s first wife had given him two daughters, and Marianne was the eldest daughter. Her sister was three years younger than her and was currently studying in England. The actress had given birth to two c

After the convoy came in, the bodyguards got out of the car first and opened the door for Charlie, Shawn, and Jenna, who was in the other car.The maids greeted Shawn and Jenna with a “Sir, Madam” in unison, but Shawn then pointed directly at Charlie and said to everyone, “Come, greet Mr. Wade!”So, the crowd hurriedly bowed to Charlie and greeted him again.Shawn then continued saying to the crowd, “Mr. Wade will be staying at our house for the next few days. You have to serve Mr. Wade well and not let him feel any dissatisfaction. Do you understand me?” The crowd naturally agreed in succession, and they did not dare to be negligent. After that, Shawn said to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, I already got the maids to clean up the guest room before you came. You will stay here with me as long as you’re in Hong Kong. You don’t have to be courteous with me!”Charlie was also very happy to oblige and so, he smiled and said, “I’ll accept willingly if that’s the case!”“Okay!” Shawn patted Cha

The cabbie chuckled. "You're a local yet you're heading to Antique Street right away as soon as you land instead of going home? And you're still saying you're not trying to pick up a killer bargain deal?"Come on, man—it's not just you, I want that too. We cabbies work ourselves to death only for ten thousand per month at best while our friend over there made twenty million in one night. I could keep driving cabs for the rest of my life and still not make that much money."Jacob knew that the cabbie must be talking about Raymond and became even more miserable then, grumbling unhappily, "I'm going to Antique Street for business—I'm not trying to pick up some missed bargain.""No? Then you didn't hear what happened yesterday?"The cabbie was immediately curious, and without waiting for Jacob's answer, he exclaimed happily, "Look, man—it was so ridiculous not even Hollywood would put it in their script. There were these fools who were trying to sell an antique trader a replica, but th

It was nighttime in Dubai as Jacob dragged his weary body from the hotel back to the airport.As he was flying economy this time, he was left sitting at the hard bench near the boarding terminal, waiting for it to open.While he waited, his heart was torn as he tapped into the website of the Aurous Hill Charity Fund, found their donation account, and wired the entire 300 thousand he had made over to them.He had picked the Aurous Hill Charity Fund because the circles of antique collectors in Aurous Hill were all discussing how Raymond had donated half of the 20 million he had made to that same charity fund.After Raymond skyrocketed to prominence in Antique Street and became a star, it could not be denied that people admired his profound ability.However, there were also people who envied his skill in turning the tables just as there were those who were jealous he had made twenty million in a single night.Still, Raymond moved fast—soon after word spread that he had made twenty m

Elaine quickly asked, "Well, what if you can't get it done?"Jacob was apprehensive even as he sighed. "If they really pressed the issue, guess I can't even stay at the Calligraphy and Painting Association now… We will see. If things get bad, I'll just resign. I won't ask for much right now, just as long as I don't have to go to jail."Elaine nodded. "Then you should try to reason things out with Raymond Cole or ask for Charlie's help if push comes to shove. Being humiliated is still better than prison.""Okay!"-It was nighttime at Aurous Hill by the time Elaine and Jacob arrived at their hotel.Charlie and Claire had just had dinner, and Claire pulled out her phone, saying, "I just checked my flight app, and it says my parents should have landed two hours ago. They are probably at the hotel, so I'll check in on them with a video call."She had yet to open her WhatsApp when Elaine called her on a video call.Jacob was planning to check in with Claire and Charlie to put their

Hearing what Jacob had said, Elaine became anxious and pressed him as he hung up, "What's going on? You're leaving? But we just got here! My shoes have just caught Dubai dirt, so why are we leaving so soon—"However, Jacob was wiping the sweat off his brow as he mumbled quietly, "Well, at this point, I have to leave or I won't be vice president anymore."Elaine immediately fumed. "We've been married for half our lives, and this is supposed to be our honeymoon, yet we're just leaving? I've posted about this on social media too—there are plenty of people who're waiting for more posts on our trip!"And don't forget—we spent a lot on our flight tickets and our hotels! The hotel bookings can't be refunded either!"Jacob scowled dolefully. "Well, what can we do? Why don't you stay? I'll go home and get this sorted out first….""Well, how long would that take?" Elaine asked."How should I know?" Jacob sighed, uneasy and annoyed. "Don Albert is saying I have to go back and donate the 300

"But I spent 98 thousand on that bronze sculpture!" Jacob exclaimed in agitation before he knew it. "I made 300 thousand from it, and that means my profit was 200 thousand at best, but I'm supposed to return that to him as well?! That means I'd have lost my own capital too!""I can't help you if you can't bear to part with that money, Mr. Wilson," Don Albert said quietly. "In that case, you'll just have to handle it yourself.""Wait, wait, wait!" Jacob immediately became antsy and cried out right then, "Please, Don Albert! I'll return the money! I'll return it, alright?! The entirety of my profits—202 thousand, okay? At least let me keep the money I spent, okay?""By that reasoning, Mr. Wilson, when a phone scammer is told by the cops to return the money they've made from defrauding, should he be allowed to keep the money he spent on telco charges? ""Oh, I…" Jacob was left stumped and could not come up with an answer.Don Albert then pressed on, "Mr. Wilson, I've offered a prom

"Mr. Wilson, what you boys did was truly heinous!" Don Arnold growled. "I scolded Zachary myself when I found out, and I was the one who told him to post that statement!"Jacob was shocked. "But why, Don Arnold? Are you friends with Raymond Cole?""Never met the guy," Don Arnold replied.That left Jacob even more confused. "Then why are you taking his side?""I've been doing my best to clean up my image over the past couple of years," Don Albert replied coolly. "I rarely get involved in mob business or anything illicit, and everyone in Aurous Hill knows that Zachary is my right-hand man, yet he confessed to committing such a heinous crime behind my back. What is that if not sullying my reputation?"Jacob was left reeling as he didn't expect Don Albert to be so serious, but he quickly explained, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to affect you so terribly… It's all Zachary's fault! I wouldn't have been aware that Raymond had returned at all, but he just had to tell me and come up with
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6533
At this point, Don Albert could very well be Jacob's personal messiah.Even if he did threaten Zachary with calling Charlie persistently, he actually wouldn't dare call Charlie.After all, how would he start explaining that he was involved in a crime? And telling Charlie was basically telling his daughter—what would they think of him after this? Would he ever be able to hold his head high in the family again?As such, his only option now was to ask Don Albert and see if he would help.What he didn't know was that Don Albert was with Charlie, who had already anticipated Jacob's move.When Jacob realized he couldn't stop Zachary, Jacob would find someone who could, and Don Albert was the best man for the job!To no surprise, Don Albert's phone soon started ringing with a call from Jacob.Don Albert didn't answer right away, however, instead turning toward Charlie as he asked gingerly, "So, shall I stick to your script, Master Wade?"Seeing Charlie nod, he pressed on, "Should I

As soon as Jacob sent the voice message, Mr. Bay called.Jacob quickly answered, asking nervously, "How are things over there, Mr. Bay?""How, you ask…?" Mr. Bay sighed in exasperation. "The entire Calligraphy and Painting Association was demanding your dismissal as soon as Zachary Evans posted his statement, thinking that you have no business being the administrative vice president let alone have a place in the association."Even those officials came asking me questions, and you know how they are—gossipers, every last one of them, always finding out about the juicy stuff instantly even if it's really no big deal. The only excuse I have to stop them is that we don't have the facts, but this issue still needs to be taken care of."So, be straight with me. Were you a part of this? If you don't, do you have any definitive evidence that can refute Zachary's claims?""I… Uh…" Jacob stammered, unable to answer.He certainly wanted to say no, but he had no evidence to back himself up.

Jacob bellowed furiously, "Raymond Cole made over 19 million dollars! From my bronze sculpture! Yet you're telling me to refund that 300 thousand too?! You're just fucking with me, aren't you?!""Well, if you don't like it, just do what you like, then," Zachary replied calmly and quickly hung up before Jacob could answer.Jacob was left twitching and shaking endlessly, and there was no telling if it was from rage or fear.Beside him, Elaine quickly asked, "What did Zachary say, dear? Can he get that bronze sculpture back?"Caught by surprise at her question, Jacob flinched, and his phone slipped out of his grasp.As it seemed to hover in the air, he tried to catch it twice but failed, but Elaine managed to grab it.It was then that she noticed that he was sweating all over his face, and she promptly asked, "What's wrong, dear?"Coming to his senses, Jacob's eyes went wide with rage. "Zachary is trying to kill me! He leaked the whole thing to his Twitter page—it's like he's pulli
