Kathleen’s joke frightened Marianne, and she became flustered as she quickly waved her hand and said, “I-I dare not... My sister is still studying...”Kathleen smiled and said, “Can’t she fall in love if she’s still studying? Aren’t you also a doctoral student? You have not graduated, right?”Marianne hurriedly said, “That’s... That’s not what I meant...”When Kathleen saw Marianne’s flustered appearance, she smiled and said, “We’ll put the matter related to your younger sister aside first, but let me ask you something else. Do you know Quinn Golding?”“The celebrity, Quinn Golding?!” Marianne subconsciously blurted out, “She’s my idol!”Having said that, she suddenly thought of something and asked in horror, “Does Quinn also like Charlie?!”Kathleen raised her brows and smiled as she said, “Quinn is different compared to us. She has a marriage contract with Charlie. Their family had already betrothed them when they were still young. Quinn searched hard for Charlie for so many ye

“No.” Kathleen said, “We haven’t known each other for long. Just a month or two.”Marianne was shocked and asked her, “You’ve only known Charlie for a month or two, so why do you know him so well, then?!”Kathleen smiled in a self-deprecating manner and said, “Well, who asked me to be a smart aleck? I had to find out everything about him, and the deeper I looked into him, the deeper I got caught in it.”Having said that, Kathleen smiled and said, “Sometimes, being too smart is not a good thing. I was also sad for a whole day like you are now when I found out that he likes Nanako.”Marianne was even more puzzled, and she asked, “Miss Fox, how did you know that?”Kathleen laughed and said, “Based on reasoning.”Having said that, Kathleen said, “First of all, as far as I know, Nanako was seriously injured after she competed in Aurous Hill. The media once said that her life was in danger, and even if she pulled through and survived, she might have to be bedridden for the rest of her

Marianne did not expect that the birthday gift that Charlie had casually given her would be so expensive. It was so expensive that even Lord Fox could only get half of the pill from Charlie!As she thought of this, she suddenly had mixed feelings in her heart.At this moment, she felt a girl-like joy in her heart as well as the trepidation of receiving something so valuable without merit. However, she did not expect that Kathleen’s next sentence would leave her even more speechless.Kathleen struggled and hesitated for a long time before she looked at Marianne and asked in an extremely serious manner, “Miss Long, do you intend to sell this Healing Pill? I am willing to pay you ten billion US dollars if you plan to sell it!” There were not many people who knew of the actual value of the Rejuvenating Pill as well as the Healing Pill better than Kathleen herself. Needless to say, the Rejuvenating Pill was a divine medicine that could be sold for three hundred billion US dollars

Having said that, she reached out her hand and pointed at the small wooden box in Marianne’s hand as she instructed, “Miss Long, it’d be better for you to put this pill away. This pill is worth a lot of money, so you should try not to let others know about it.”“Okay...” Marianne nodded and then kept the small wooden box away safely. She then immediately remembered something and hurriedly asked Kathleen, “By the way, Miss Fox, why do you know so many things about Charlie? It seems like you know him very well.” Kathleen smiled in a self-deprecating manner and said, “I secretly investigated him when I was in Aurous Hill before this, and coupled with some of my own reasoning skills, I was then able to sort out a lot of things.”Marianne could not help but exclaim, “Miss Fox, you’re really smart! I wouldn’t have thought of this if it was me...”“Smart...” Kathleen smiled and shook her head. “It’s useless to be too smart.”Having said that, Kathleen’s expression suddenly froze as if s

After Charlie had bought the cell phone case, the episode related to the cell phone seemed to be over. However, Charlie still could not understand why Marianne would burst into tears because of her cell phone.At this time, the vendors at the food street showed extremely hospitable qualities and filled their table with a variety of delicious food.So, the three of them tacitly put the incident behind them as they chatted while they ate.Halfway through the meal, Marianne looked up at Charlie and asked him, “Mr. Wade, when will you be going back?”Charlie casually said, “Tomorrow night. I wonder if your father has solved the problem in regard to the villa next door? If it’s solved, I can also go back after Uncle Janus’s family moves in tomorrow.”Marianne felt a little disappointed, and she could not help but ask, “Mr. Wade, aren’t you planning to stay a few more days in Hong Kong?”“No.” Charlie smiled slightly and said, “My wife is waiting for me in the United States, so I canno

Kathleen drove the car out of the parking lot after saying goodbye, but Marianne was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, she turned on her cell phone and typed a sentence, ‘How many universities are there in Aurous Hill?’ into the search engine on her cell phone. Very soon, the search engine presented a list of all the universities in Aurous Hill.Marianne glanced at the list. In the list, the university with the best strength and reputation was Aurous University.So, she opened Aurous University’s official website and found Aurous University’s recruitment page on the official website. She carefully read the words on the website and finally found a recruitment category that was particularly suitable for her. This category was called the Outstanding Talent Introduction Program. There were two schemes for this talent introduction program. The first scheme was for well-known scholars with a certain reputation worldwide. This was a very high requirement, and Marianne, who had yet t

Meanwhile, in Campbell Mansion. This was an old mansion located in Sham Shui Po in Hong Kong, and the actual usable area for this mansion was only just over thirty square meters. In Hong Kong, where every inch of land was precious, there were not many people who could own a house that was more than thirty square meters. Back then, in Kowloon Walled City, countless families with five or even eight family members were all crammed into a small room of less than ten square meters. In comparison, this mansion in Sham Shui Po owned by the Campbell family was already considered to have escaped the title of living in a slum. Janus had grown up here when he was young. When his father had made a fortune by selling roast goose, his family had then moved to the bustling city center of Hong Kong.Later, Janus had then become a well-known professional manager in Hong Kong, and he had also earned a good income when he had helped Shawn make a lot of money. The Campbell family’s house in the c

Daryl hurriedly refused and said, “Janus, this is your own hard-earned money! How could I possibly accept this? Besides that, my income is quite stable now, and I don’t need to pay high medical bills anymore in the future as Mom has already recovered. You can keep this money for yourself!”Janus smiled and said, “You can only buy a car at most with so little money in Hong Kong. I am not capable, and I have limited abilities. You can accept this money from me without any worries. I am all alone, and I don’t need much money, so it’s useless for me to keep this money to myself. If Young Master Wade looks up to me, I will be satisfied if he can manage my food and accommodation for me. If Young Master Wade does not have a use for me, I will simply start up a roast goose restaurant in Sham Shui Po, and I will ask you for some capital when the time comes. You can treat it as if you’re holding onto this money on my behalf first, then.”The old lady also spoke up at this time and said, “Daryl

Jacob wasn't really concerned with the invitation. He wouldn't be going anyway, and he wouldn't tell Elaine about it.Right now, he had a question.After hanging up on Walker, he asked curiously, "A designated driver would be just a few dozen bucks at most. Why get Walker?"Mr. Bay sighed meaningfully. "Jacob, my boy—it's not just my job description you must handle when you succeed me. You must understand the unspoken rules of the workplace as well as interpersonal relationships."Raising his right index finger, he chuckled, "Earning the loyalty of subordinates is a science. But it has to be a carrot and stick—never just the carrot, while offering them chances to be of service.""Take Walker, for example. As his boss, buying him lunch is 5 points. Ask for a favor, but it's 50 points instead!""As a leader, you should also make sure to give requests that are reasonable. That way, they will consider you to be their ally, or soon enough.""People are strange that way—psychology sim

Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

Jacob put a hand on his chest. "Don't worry—everything is going to be fine when my son-in-law takes the stage."As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown number called his phone.He answered, hearing a familiar voice he couldn't quite place, "Good afternoon. Am I speaking to Mr. Jacob Wilson?""Yes. May I ask who I am speaking to?""Albert Rhodes, owner of Heaven Springs at your service. Would you happen to remember me?"Hearing that, Jacob turned on the speaker excitedly as he continued, "Oh, yes, Don Albert! Of course I remember!"Mr. Bay's eyes lit up when he heard Albert announce himself, and he mouthed, "Is that really Don Albert?!"Jacob nodded repeatedly, his vanity burgeoning.Mr. Bay was naturally thrilled too, and he leaned closer to listen just as Albert spoke humbly, "If it's alright with you, Mr. Wilson, please don't address me as Don Albert. It's just a title some brats came up with—you are Master Wade's father-in-law, which means you have seniority over me. So,

Mr. Bay was overjoyed, seeing how quickly Jacob agreed to it. "Thanks, Jacob! I owe you!" He exclaimed, but soon added, "It's past four now, and that bunch like to fraternize in the room before they eat. Could you get the room soon? I think they'll be arriving soon."Then, he moved closer to add quietly, "If you can get a Diamond Room like before, I will bring you along. I'm not going to lie, these are officials with decision-making authority. Being friends with them might propel us to new heights!"Jacob already knew that Mr. Bay was sucking up to his friend, otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned when the dinner was organized by said friend. Understanding that the friend must be important too, Jacob was at once buoyed.After all, he had presumed that becoming vice president was the most he could achieve.Now, if he could attend that dinner with Mr. Bay and establish a good relationship with those bigwigs, he would have his turn when Mr. Bay got promoted too.With that in min

Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…
