When he had suddenly bumped into Marianne just now, he had thought that God was really helping him and that this was just a good way for him to put on an act without showing any signs.However, he never would have thought that Marianne would not appreciate it.She even managed to push him into a dead end with just a few words. Now, it was difficult for him to go back on his words. If he did not want to embarrass himself, he could only honestly cash in the donation of ten million Hong Kong dollars. Furthermore, he could only make an anonymous donation, according to Marianne. When Marianne saw his embarrassed expression, she then said indifferently, “It does not matter if you regret it and want to go back on your word, Dillion. You can just pretend that I did not say anything.”As soon as Dillion heard this, he blurted out without hesitation, “No! Absolutely not! How could I, Dillion Brown, go back on my words?! Isn’t it just ten million Hong Kong dollars? I will transfer the mone

Marianne’s first reaction when Charlie grabbed her hand was as if she had been electrocuted. She wanted to break free, but Charlie’s grip was strong, and Marianne simply could not pull her hand away at all.Moreover, she did not dare to blatantly pull her hand away. This was because she was afraid that Dillion would see through their act immediately. If that happened, she would only end up worse off than when she had been trying to gain an advantage. So, she could only suppress her anger and say to Charlie, “You’d better do as you say!”After saying that, she said to Charlie, “Let’s go!” Dillion’s face was pale as he blurted out and asked, “Marianne! Who is this guy?!”Marianne felt very irritated because Charlie was still holding on to her hand, so she said angrily, “Didn’t you hear what I said just now? He’s my fiancé!”“How can that be possible?!” Dillion spoke angrily as if someone had offended him greatly, “My father just had dinner with Uncle Long last week, and Uncle L

After saying that, she saw that Charlie seemed to be really afraid. So, she spoke up and said, “But you can just say so if you’re really scared. I’ll ask my father to arrange for you to run away and leave Hong Kong. They should not be able to do anything to you, then.”Dillion also overheard their conversation, and he yelled coldly, “Kid, you want to run away after f*cking messing around with me?! Let me tell you, I will never let you off today if you refuse to kneel and grovel three times before me while slapping yourself a hundred times!” Charlie looked up at Dillion and asked with a puzzled expression, “Are you joking with me?”“Joking with you?” Dillion thought that Charlie was afraid, and he said angrily, “Who the f*ck do you think you are? Would I, Dillion Brown, joke around with the likes of you?!” When Marianne saw Dillion’s fierce appearance, she could not help but realize that the situation seemed to be getting out of hand. She did not bother about the fact that Charlie

Marianne was on the verge of an emotional breakdown at this point. She could no longer care about Charlie holding her hand, and she only wanted to quickly resolve the trouble that she had caused. She had seen people using another man as a shield many times on television, but she had never done it herself. It just so happened that Charlie had been teasing her earlier, so she could not help but think of pranking him.However, she really did not expect that step by step, Charlie had been able to turn things into such an unmanageable and out-of-control situation that it was now.This also made her feel scared for the first time for joking. Her voice was even a little shaky as she pleaded, “Charlie, I’m begging you! You should leave Hong Kong first. You can come back later in the future at most, but it will definitely be very troublesome if you do not leave by today!” When Charlie saw that her eyes were flushed red and that she was about to burst into tears, he stopped in his trac

Charlie asked him, “Didn’t Rudy help out if the Order of the Star is so poor?” “He helps.” Porter said, “If Rudy had not helped out, the Order of the Star would have already started laying off staff. Rudy depended on the Order of the Star for a lot of help back then, so the Order of the Star also relied on this point and kept looking to him for help. When Rudy finally made it big in the business world, he also wanted to get rid of his ties with the Order of the Star. So, he helped the Order of the Star with their transformation. The Order of the Star has four main income channels now. One is to open pawn shops, one is to open nightclubs, one is to smuggle frozen meat, and the other is to run underground casinos. Apart from the casinos, the first three businesses were all started by Rudy.”Charlie hummed slightly and said, “Which is the Order of the Star’s biggest nightclub?Porter replied, “It’s called ClubWaves in Lan Kwai Fong.”“ClubWaves...” Charlie muttered softly and smiled

“What kind of justice do I want to administer?”When Charlie heard Marianne’s question, he smiled slightly and said, “I can’t tell you this for the time being. I’ll leave you with a little sense of mystery.” Marianne could not help but frown and ask him, “Have you ever thought about what you would do if Dillion were to target you, then? How can you defeat the Order of the Star on your own in Hong Kong?”Charlie raised his eyes and smiled as he said, “You really underestimate me. Do you think that I won’t be able to defeat them on my own? I wouldn’t even be worried if they came at me as a group!”Marianne thought that Charlie was boasting again, and she felt as if Charlie had drained her emotionally. Hence, she could only shake her head helplessly and say, “Okay, you win!”Having said that, she could only walk out of the parking lot together with Charlie. When the two of them exited the parking lot, they went to the most crowded shopping mall in Tsim Sha Tsui. In addition to t

Marianne said helplessly, “Please take care of yourself first. I heard that you broke up with your new boyfriend again?! You’ve only dated him for a few days this time!”The girl curled her lips and said, “I don’t even want to mention that scumbag! He only got together with me because he wanted me to help him with the design for his graduation project. He broke up with me right after I helped him finish his graduation project...”Marianne sighed and said, “Please be wiser when you choose a boyfriend next time.”The girl glance at Charlie again and said earnestly, “But Marianne, I really think that this man next to you is truly very compatible with you!”“Stop it!” Marianne hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop the other party and said, “You have already proven to us countless times that you cannot make good decisions at all. So, if you think that he is compatible with me, the odds are that he is not compatible with me at all!”Having said that, she could not help but roll her e

Charlie’s light-hearted words made Marianne feel nervous for no reason.She could not help but question Charlie, “What are you planning to do? Why do you have to do it in less crowded places?”Charlie looked at her and smiled as he said casually, “Don’t be nervous. What I want to do has nothing to do with you. You can just watch.” Having said that, he stepped on the accelerator and drove Marianne’s Tesla out.As soon as the car left the basement, three different cars quickly followed after the car.Dillion was sitting in one of the cars. He gritted his teeth as he looked at the Tesla being driven by Charlie, and he said coldly to the people around him, “Follow that scum! I have to kill him today!”The young man driving the car sneered and said, “Don’t worry, Dillion. We will definitely screw this kid up nicely today!” This man’s arms were all covered with tattoos, and he was also very muscular. At a glance, he was obviously not someone to be provoked.The corners of Dillion’s

The lawyer then finished, "To be honest, cases of regretting a donation and seeking a lawsuit to get the money back? Law firms usually won't even get one per year, and that makes it especially newsworthy for the press."Also, court records are always public. That means anyone can access the verdict, and there's no hiding anything. So, if you want the lawsuit, you'd better be prepared."Jacob was already left in despair.All he wanted was to get his money back, but he didn't think that it would end up as public knowledge.And Mr. Bay had just told him over the phone that he would try to quell the scandal's pressure and try his best to protect Jacob's place as vice president.If Jacob's name was suddenly mentioned in a lawsuit attempting to reclaim an 'accidental' donation, even Mr. Bay couldn't save him at that point.Hence, after thinking long and hard about it, Jacob realized that he was not getting his 300 thousand back.The thought crushed him, and he burst into tears, "What

At this hour, most of the employees at Talbot Associates had already left.However, there were several lawyers who had just finished a meeting regarding a certain case, and they were just leaving when Jacob arrived.Seeing that they were packing up their bags and ready to leave, he asked, "Excuse me, are you still able to take cases?"The leader smiled, "Yes, but it's a little late now. Why don't you come again tomorrow morning?"Jacob shook his head impatiently. "This is very urgent—please help me and hear me out, then see if it will work. 300 thousand banks on this, so I'll give you twenty percent whether or not I get it back!"300 thousand was really neither here nor there.However, if it were an easy civil case, that twenty percent commission would still mean sixty thousand.The lawyer thought about it. "Fine. Tell us what your problem is, and we will assess the situation first. If it's easy, we can give you a general strategy right now. But if it proves difficult, we'll hav

The cabbie nodded. "Well, Talbot Associates, it is! They're said to be number two."-While Jacob was heading off to consult a law firm, Charlie was calling Julien Rothschild over the phone.The manchild had just had room service and was lounging on the couch, fiddling with his phone.After visiting the kennels with Charlie, he had been idling his days away at the hotel, waiting for Salem and his son to post that video of them being out at sea.Once that was done, Julien would return to the States, once more the heir apparent of the Rothschilds. Still, it was boring to simply lounge around in the hotel, and he would really like to strengthen his ties with Charlie.However, he was also afraid of being too forward as Charlie could be intimidating, and he could upset him—just like a fan eager to get close to their idol but was still worried about their idol getting disgusted with them.As such, he never expected Charlie to call him, and he immediately answered eagerly, "Good even

Pausing, Mr. Bay continued, "If they're not that upset with the idea, I'll bang my gavel and make the call so that you can at least stay as a vice president."If they keep refusing, I just have to promote Mr. Zonda to become a vice president while you take over his position of head-of-department as insurance. What do you think?"Jacob certainly wouldn't protest the idea of insurance, especially when he thought he would be forced to leave the Calligraphy and Painting Association altogether earlier. He quickly exclaimed gratefully, "Thank you so much, Mr. Bay!"Mr. Bay chuckled, clearly relieved as well. "Come on, Jacob—you don't have to be so formal. I'm like a brother to you! Don't you think that's what I should be doing?"Jacob laughed earnestly for once. "Well, brother, I'm honestly relieved…" He trailed off but soon pressed on, "But I have to ask, won't the other members have things to say even if you manage to persuade the other vice presidents? What if they remain unhappy?

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
