Shawn had originally thought of offering this villa in exchange for a favor. After all, it was also worth hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, if it were changed into dimes and thrown into the sea, the sea level would also rise a little. Therefore, he should not give this villa to Janus just like that.However, Janus was an intelligent man, and he could see the reason at a glance. Therefore, the nature of this matter instantly changed with just one sentence. If Janus accepted the villa now, it would not be Janus who owed him a favor, but instead, it would be Shawn who owed Janus a favor.The meaning behind Janus’s words was very obvious. Even if he accepted the villa, it would just be because he was doing Shawn a favor.Otherwise, Shawn would be in big trouble if he could not explain things to Charlie. Shawn was also convinced. He knew that he was on the losing end, so he simply decided to accept it.Therefore, he sighed and said to Janus, “Janus, consider this a favo

Janus’s analogy instantly made his mother understand what was at stake. It also allowed her to be completely relieved about her son’s future safety. She heaved a sigh of relief and said, “I have nothing to worry about if that’s the case, then.”As she said that, she then asked somewhat uncertainly, “Janus, are we really going to move into the villa given by Shawn tomorrow?”Janus nodded and said seriously, “Of course we’re going. This is Young Master Wade’s arrangement, and Shawn is simply acting according to Young Master Wade’s orders. To be precise, the villa that we are going to move into tomorrow is actually a villa given by Young Master Wade.” Having said that, he looked at his mother as well as his younger siblings and said, “Steerlain Island’s villas are all very large. It will certainly be large enough for our whole family to live together. So, everyone should pack up, and we will move there first thing in the morning tomorrow.”Janus’s two younger sisters looked at eac

When Charlie heard this, he smiled heartily and said, “Uncle Janus, I have some industries on hand, and I can’t manage them on my own. So, I would like you to come over and help me keep an eye on them if you’re willing to do so.”Janus said without hesitation, “Of course I’m willing! Young Master Wade, when would you like me to start work?”Charlie smiled and said, “There’s no hurry. You can accompany your family first during this period of time. I will go back to the United States tomorrow. You can make a trip to Aurous Hill after I have returned, and we can discuss the specific matters face to face.”“Okay!” Janus said immediately, “We will meet up in Aurous Hill, then!”“Okay. See you in Aurous Hill!”Charlie suddenly felt much more relaxed after hanging up the phone.He had been waiting for Janus to say these words. Janus was not only good at seeing the overall picture, but he also had very precise and accurate control of details. This kind of person was not only very stron

Early the next morning, the media all over Hong Kong received some really shocking news.The news was that Shawn, the top tycoon in Hong Kong, had actually bought Halbert Mansion in Steerlain Island and invited the media reporters to be there to attend the housewarming ceremony!Moreover, what really shocked the media was that Shawn had actually bought this mansion to give to Janus, who was his former love rival and right-hand man!Although Janus did not have much money, he had a surprisingly big reputation in Hong Kong.Hong Kong was a gossip-loving place, and its city of several million people had contributed to more than half the country’s gossip news in both Oskia and Hong Kong during the peak period of the 1990s and the beginning of this century. Therefore, the love triangle between Shawn, Jenna, and Janus was known to almost everyone in Hong Kong.Moreover, everyone in Hong Kong also knew that Shawn wanted to take Janus’s life even in his dreams. Yet now, Shawn had actua

He looked down and realized that it was Charlie calling. He was startled because of his guilty conscience, so he looked around in the car as he wondered if Charlie had installed a bug in the car.However, he quickly regained his composure, answered the call, and asked respectfully, “Mr. Wade, what are your orders since you’re calling me so early in the morning?”Charlie said, “I just saw the news. It seems that many media reporters have gone to Steerlain Island to do live coverage on the spot. The media reporters mentioned that they did not see your whereabouts, Mr. Long. Aren’t you going to come forward to preside over the housewarming ceremony today?”Shawn hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. I’ve already invited Master Yaleman from Mystery Court to preside over the housewarming ceremony. I will also step forward as the organizer of the housewarming ceremony, but I’m on my way to Sham Shui Po to pick Janus’s family up now, so I might have to wait until I get back to speak to t

Charlie intended to give Shawn a way out because of Marianne.If Charlie did not give Shawn a way out, Shawn would definitely be the object of ridicule of all the people in Hong Kong in the future.If Charlie gave Shawn a way out, he could help Shawn to mediate a little and leave Shawn with the positive image of a person who could repay all grievances with virtue. Moreover, since Kathleen was already here, it would not be a bad idea for Charlie to do Shawn a favor.Shawn was originally still worried about how he would be ridiculed by all the people in Hong Kong, but he suddenly felt as if he had been hit with a shot of adrenaline when he heard Charlie’s words. He asked excitedly, “Mr. Wade, are you serious?!” Charlie said lightly, “Is there a need for me to call you so early in the morning just to tease you?!”Shawn’s tears of excitement were about to fall, and his voice was even trembling as he said, “Thank you so much, Mr. Wade! You’re truly my savior!”Charlie smiled and sa

It is said that a person’s character could be predicted by his behavior at an early age. Judging from his situation, there was basically no hope for a counterattack. A few moments later, Shawn’s convoy entered Sham Shui Po. The convoy made up of all Rolls-Royces formed a powerful contrast with the dilapidated streets of Sham Shui Po.Almost all the residents stuck their heads out of the narrow windows and were dumbfounded as they stared at this endless luxurious convoy. Such an unbelievable sight had not been seen for decades in a place like Sham Shui Po.As a result, many people took out their cell phones to take pictures and videos while also publishing these contents on short video platforms as well as self-publishing news platforms. The convoy soon arrived in front of Campbell Mansion.Janus, along with his mother, younger siblings, and several of their family members were already waiting inside the dilapidated room.When the convoy arrived at the door, Janus’s youngest

Meanwhile, Charlie and Kathleen had already left the hotel and were on their way to Steerlain Island. Kathleen knew that Charlie hoped that she would give a speech to endorse Shawn at the housewarming ceremony today. She was a little puzzled, and after holding onto the doubts in her heart along the way, she could not help but ask, “Mr. Wade, I cannot figure out why you want me to endorse Shawn today?”Charlie looked at Kathleen, smiled slightly, and said, “You’re the smartest woman I’ve ever met. Don’t you understand our ancestors’ method to deal with someone harshly before offering them something by way of consolation?”Kathleen laughed faintly and said, “I understood the strategy of tempering justice with mercy ever since I was very young, but I feel that you have already taught Shawn a good lesson and that he will definitely act more honestly from now on. There is absolutely no need to give him any consolation anymore. What’s more, you’re not giving him a simple consolation. Wit

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…
