As Charlie looked at Marianne for the first time, he felt that this girl was much more beautiful compared to how she looked in her photos.What Charlie saw on the documents were all the girl’s ID photos. Marianne was wearing glasses in her ID photos, and she was not smiling. She looked a little more delicate and beautiful, but she was far from being stunning.At this moment, however, Marianne, who was in front of him, was slender and tall with fair and rosy skin. Her facial features without makeup had the charm of a classical Oskian beauty. She had a long ponytail, and it seemed as though she was an angel that had fallen into this neighborhood and was the top version of the girl-next-door.Marianne’s dressing was very simple. She was wearing an ordinary dress with a simple pair of black sandals coupled with an unbranded shoulder bag. Such casual dressing actually brought out her extraordinary temperament to an even greater height. Charlie really did not expect that a fat man like

The person whom Marianne hated the most in her life was Jenna.For as long as she could remember, her mother had always been in tears every day at home. Her father rarely came home, and at that time, her mother had told her that her father was hooking up with a vixen outside. So, that was the reason why he did not care about them.The vixen that her mother spoke of was Jenna, whom Shawn had been hiding in this mansion on Steerlain Island. At that time, Marianne’s mother was still pregnant with her sister, and it was precisely because she had been pregnant with her sister that she had ignored her regular medical checkups and failed to detect and intervene in the initial stage of cancer in time. After being pregnant for ten months, her mother then breastfed her sister for half a year after she had given birth. During that time, her mother had been unwilling to take a single pill even if she had a cold in order to ensure that her breast milk was healthy. Thus, her condition had bee

Both Shawn and Jenna’s expressions changed the moment Charlie mentioned roast goose.As a local resident of Hong Kong, Shawn used to love eating roast goose.However, ever since he had learned that Janus, who was a talented businessman, had been selling roast goose for twenty years in Oskiatown in the United States, he had begun to hate roast goose to the core.This was because he would think of Janus whenever he thought of roast goose.As long as he thought of Janus, he would think of how Jenna had eloped with Janus and how everyone in Hong Kong knew about this matter. Moreover, what made him feel even more depressed was the fact that a woman like Jenna, who was so pampered and spoiled, would actually willingly follow Janus to sell roast goose in Oskiatown for several years. This made him feel even deeper pain in his heart. However, for anyone who had been wounded, no matter how strong they appeared on the surface, they would always be vulnerable in their hearts or have a part

When Shawn heard Charlie’s words, he really felt like slapping himself on the spot, and he could not help but curse to himself, ‘Wow! I’m really asking for it! Why did I have to ask him for the name of the restaurant?!’Jenna had an even more embarrassed expression, and she was also panicking a little at this time.It was already bad enough that Charlie was mentioning roast goose, but he just had to mention Campbell Roast directly! Wasn’t this a direct slap in the face for both Shawn and herself?!When Marianne, who was sitting opposite Charlie, saw the stunned expressions on Shawn and Jenna’s faces, she suddenly could not hold back her laughter, and she laughed out loud.Shawn turned around to glare at Marianne immediately and asked angrily, “What’s so funny?!”Marianne shrugged and said, “It wasn’t funny at first, but both of your reactions are simply too hilarious. Mr. Wade simply wanted to eat roast goose, so why are you both reacting so strongly to it?”Shawn said angrily, “

Charlie’s sudden laughter caused both Shawn and Jenna to look shocked and angry at the same time.Only then did they understand that the reason why Charlie kept mentioning roast goose was not because he missed the taste of roast goose as he had said, but it was because he was deliberately teasing them the whole time!However, Marianne was not surprised at all. Instead, she was amused by Charlie’s sudden change, and the both of them laughed heartily as they faced each other. The expression on Shawn’s face also became uglier with their laughter. A moment later, he slammed the table violently, looked at Charlie, and shouted angrily, “Mr. Wade! I’ve been treating you with courtesy, and I’ve regarded you as our distinguished guest from the moment we met, but why are you deliberately humiliating me?!”Charlie was not nervous at all, and he laughed lightly as he said, “Humiliate you? What do you mean by that, Mr. Long? You cannot possibly stop me from laughing even though this is your

Therefore, he did not dare to continue arguing with Charlie on this issue.After all, he still intended to catch Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group, which was a big fish to him. So, it would be best for him not to turn against Charlie. He would have to pretend that he did not know about this matter as long as Charlie did not make it clear that he was laughing at him for being cuckolded.So, he quickly changed his expression and laughed as he said, “So, that’s the case, Mr. Wade. It seems as though I’ve misunderstood you. I’ll drink a cup of wine as punishment, then!”Having said that, he picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in the glass in one go.Charlie nodded with a smile on his face as he said, “I really did not expect that a mere roast goose would make Mr. Long so unhappy. If that’s the case, we don’t need to eat roast goose tonight.” Shawn did not expect that Charlie would still be mentioning roast goose at this time. So, he could only force a smile and say, “Okay, then

Shawn was finally relieved and relaxed when he saw that Charlie seemed to have a crush on his daughter.The fish had already opened its mouth, and the rest would depend on when he bit the hook.After having a satisfying meal, Shawn said, “Mr. Wade, I still have something to do at the company in the afternoon, so I will not be accompanying you. Let Marianne accompany you to have a good time going around Hong Kong.”Charlie nodded and said casually, “Mr. Long, feel free to go ahead and get busy if you have something to do. It’s good enough for me to have Miss Long accompany me.” Shawn nodded in satisfaction and instructed his daughter, “Marianne, be sure to be a good host and entertain Mr. Wade on my behalf.” Marianne was also unambiguous as she asked directly, “When will you arrange for the donation of the fifty million Hong Kong dollars that you promised me?” Shawn casually replied, “I will ask the finance department to transfer the money to your foundation’s bank account with

Charlie casually took over the box, carried it, and left the villa with Marianne.After arriving in the yard, Marianne walked directly toward a normal version of the Tesla Model 3.This was Tesla’s cheapest entry-level sedan which looked completely out of place in a yard filled with Rolls-Royces and Maybachs. Charlie did not expect that Marianne would actually drive an electric car that was just more than two hundred thousand Oskian dollars. So, he could not help but feel a little surprised. Marianne could also see the look of surprise in Charlie’s eyes. So, she spoke up and said, “Mr. Wade, my car is a little simple. I hope that you do not mind it.”“No.” Charlie waved his hand and smiled as he said, “I’m not particular about cars. Not to mention four-wheeled electric cars, but I would also be fine even if it was a two-wheeled electric vehicle.”Marianne nodded and said a little coldly, “That’s good. Please help me put the things in the car trunk, Mr. Wade.”“Okay.” Charlie r

There were times when making a person despair to some extent could be a people-strategy.For example, when your distant acquaintance asked for a ten grand loan but you could only lend him one, you couldn't tell him directly that. It would make them think you were being insincere.The better option would be to tell them how you were worse off than they were and had a debt yourself, or that some other friend had borrowed money for three years and never repaid it.And when that mere acquaintance was in despair, you could tell them that if it was really important, you could lend them one thousand with a credit card loan.That way, while the mere acquaintance wouldn't exactly be awash with gratitude, they at least wouldn't complain about your lack of sincerity.That was exactly what Mr. Bay was doing.He had no intention of offending Jacob, but he also couldn't directly tell him to give up on claiming the position as president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association. Otherwise, Ja

Jacob felt absolutely horrible just then, and he certainly did not expect Don Albert to give him the cold shoulder.If he had known, he would have just stayed content with the 200 thousand he had made and enjoyed his trip to Dubai! If he had, the Calligraphy and Painting Association wouldn't have found out about the bronze sculpture plot, and Don Albert would still be on friendly terms with him.Absolutely regretting everything, Jacob got in the backseat of the cab, tears of grief almost welling up and out of his eyes.Then, noticing that the cabbie was quietly watching him from the rearview mirror, he turned his face aside, whipped out his phone, and called Mr. Bay.As soon as Mr. Bay answered, he asked, "How did things go over there? Have you sorted out Zachary Evans yet?"He was waiting for Jacob to ask Don Albert for help so that the latter would pressure Zachary into posting a statement retracting his previous claims.However, Jacob knew full well that there was no hope for

Ramond replied, "I'm not planning on getting my name out there—I was just thinking I could start slow from one shop, but now, I'm suddenly so popular everyone's consulting me for appraisals, so I guess that's the short end of this."Either way, I'm planning to let things cool off by opening the shop late and closing early. That way, I'd receive fewer customers, and the hype will die down in a month."Once it does, I'll lead a slow life, which is perfect in Aurous Hill since it's how things are here. I'm not aiming to get rich or expand my business, and it's a comfortable life, so I plan to retire here."Charlie nodded. "The Rothschilds are relatively manageable, but I'm not sure if the Qing Eliminating Society is still looking for you and the Four-Sided Treasure Tower. You'll be completely free once they are wiped out.""And I'm sure with your abilities, Mr. Wade, that day will soon arrive." Raymond smiled and soon remembered. "By the way, you probably haven't had dinner yet, right

Charlie was never one who covered up misdeeds, and what Jacob had done reflected his corrupted character and clear refusal to feel remorse.As such, Charlie naturally refused to offer any help, completely giving up and allowing Jacob to keep going off on his own tangent, tearing himself apart in the process.Still, Raymond did put a good word in for Jacob. "Actually, one can understand Mr. Wilson's motives from a certain point of view. I was the one who set him up so that he broke that vase, and had him beaten up so that we didn't arouse suspicion. He has every reason to bear a grudge."Charlie sighed, nodding. "There's no issue with holding a grudge or getting revenge—in fact, I have no problem with him trying to salvage some pride. However, what he did was unseemly, and he doesn't know when to stop."He didn't lose anything before Zachary exposed everything. Even if he had missed a killer deal, he bought it off someone's hand in the first place and made two hundred grand in clean

With those words, Jacob didn't wait any further as he turned and left Antique Street, intent on seeking legal counsel.Raymond watched him leave before returning to Treasure Measure.He wasn't going to leave, but he had said so because he didn't want to waste much time with Jacob.Still, to avoid any trouble, he turned the sign outside to 'closed' before locking the door from the inside.That was when a man suddenly arrived, asking through the glass door, "Can I still take a look inside, sir?"Raymond was ready to refuse without even turning around when he realized that it was Charlie.He turned around and saw him standing outside just as expected.Smiling, he hurried over to open the door for him. "It's been a while, Mr. Wade!"Charlie was aware that Raymond was sticking to his identity of 'Raymond Cole' who had not been in touch since Raymond had been fired from Vintage Deluxe.Charlie chuckled in turn. "It has indeed. And you're a business owner yourself now, too.""It's j

Jacob zipped toward Raymond, his attitude immediately subservient, "I'm sure you've seen what Zachary Evans posted on his Twitter page, and to be honest, it's so terrible that my position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association has been affected too. I mean, you've made a lot of money, right?"Hell, even if you donated ten million, you'd still have another ten million and 970 thousand in net profits. So, all I'd like to ask is for you to post something to disclaim Zachary's post.Jacob's words left Raymond in thought.For Jacob, just being suspected of fraud would definitely be terrible. In fact, his position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association would definitely be threatened—if not dismissed altogether—if he wasn't cleared of suspicion.Since Jacob was Charlie Wade's father-in-law, Raymond had reason not to drive Jacob over the brink.But that also begged another question—it must be under Charlie's intention for Zachary to post his confession, and that meant Charlie in

Raymond couldn't help chuckling just as Jacob finished—he had honestly never heard of anyone who demanded a refund after donating to charity, but he was certainly seeing one now.Still, the receptionist was clearly experienced and slowly explained, "Sir, it's a legal clause of the country that all donations for philanthropy purposes can not be refunded under most circumstances—""It truly was a mistake," Jacob quickly said, cutting the receptionist off. "I was going to donate thirty thousand but pressed an extra zero by mistake. Please discuss this with your management—you just have to refund 27 thousand, see?""Sorry, sir," the receptionist apologized. "But it's a strict rule that we ourselves do not get to access the funds that have been donated into our accounts. Every donation will be screened extensively, and if you consider that there was a major oversight on your part, you may seek legal counsel to appeal for a refund. If the courts back your appeal, our organization will the

Nonetheless, Jacob darted into Treasure Measure and plucked off his mask, asking nervously, "Excuse me, Mr. Cole? It's me… Jacob Wilson…"Raymond looked up, pausing for a moment before acting as if he was actually curious, "Mr. Wilson! What brings you here? Don't tell me—you want that bronze sculpture back too?""No, no, no…" Jacob quickly shook his head. "I would never… I returned all the way from Dubai to apologize!""Apologize?" Raymond smiled faintly, and he did not play dumb this time as he asked bluntly, "Did you come back because of Zachary Evan's post?"Knowing he couldn't deny it any longer, Jacob nodded, "Yeah…"Raymond nodded and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. I was the one who benefited in the end."Jacob wasn't quite keeping up—thinking that Raymond was just trying to be nice by telling him he didn't have to apologize, he quickly pulled out his phone.Tapping on it and bringing up his transaction records, he handed it to Raymond reverently, "Mr. Cole, I understan

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
