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
After saying that, Kathleen did not want Charlie to continue feeling troubled by the topic she had started. So, she said, “By the way, Mr. Wade, I got someone to buy two mansions in Steerlain Island. You will also have a convenient place to stay if you were to come to Hong Kong frequently in the future. Do you want me to show it to you after the housewarming ceremony is over?”Charlie asked in surprise, “Why would you want to buy mansions on Steerlain Island?”Kathleen smiled and said, “It’s mainly for future convenience. After all, Hong Kong is also an international metropolis. It would be inevitable for you to come here to expand your business or attend business summits here in the future. After all, the feeling of staying in a hotel is not as good as staying in your own home.”Having said that, Kathleen then said again, “The two mansions are very large. I got someone to use the group’s name to buy them. I will arrange for the renovations to be done after I take possession of the
When Kathleen saw Aivan’s attentive appearance, she frowned slightly, but she still nodded politely and said, “Hello, Mr. Yaleman.”It was Aivan’s first time meeting such a high-ranking woman for the first time, and he was extremely excited and said in a flattering manner, “I really did not expect to be able to meet you here, Miss Fox. It is indeed a great honor!”Having said that, he hurriedly asked again, “Miss Fox, was Mr. Long the one who invited you to come to Hong Kong this time?”Kathleen nodded lightly. “Yes.” Aivan said excitedly, “I have a very close relationship with Mr. Long. All of Mr. Long’s Feng Shui matters have been handled by us ever since my father’s time.”After saying that, Aivan then said again, “By the way, Miss Fox, you can contact me at any time in the future if you have any Feng Shui needs. I will provide you with the most professional service for free!”Subsequently, Aivan took out a business card from the inside of his Taoist robe, handed it over to
Aivan immediately cupped his hands in obeisance toward the distance and said, “My father left Hong Kong last year, and he already went to look for a unique place to live in seclusion and cultivate himself.” “Live in seclusion?” Charlie smiled and said playfully, “Speaking of this, I actually met your father back then.”Aivan asked in surprise, “You’ve met my father?”“Yes.” Charlie smiled and said, “It was last year.” Aivan was shocked and blurted out, “Last year?! Where did you meet him?!”Charlie said indifferently, “In Aurous Hill.”Aivan was dumbfounded as he stared at Charlie and blurted out, “My father did go to Aurous Hill last year. At that time, he told me that he was going to participate in an auction to bid for a Tridacna. Could it be that you had met him then?”“That’s right?” Charlie smiled and said, “Master Yaleman had a really impressive presence at the auction, and he left a deep impression on me.”Aivan could not help but feel nervous.It was not that he was
Charlie’s casual and light-hearted words scared Aivan to the point where he turned pale in fright. He could not help but blurt out, “How is that possible?! My father has a superb metaphysics level, and he has never met anyone who could be his rival in the industry for so many years! What’s more, I’ve never heard of anyone who could summon a heavenly thunderbolt. This is simply nonsense! Do you think this is a Hollywood movie? Do you think you would be able to use a hammer to summon a heavenly thunderbolt down to earth?!”Charlie smiled and said, “That’s the truth. There is nothing I can do if you don’t believe me.”Having said that, Charlie then said again, “Oh, by the way, I really have quite some fate with Mystery Court. I not only met your father, Jack, but I also met your master, Falco Xanthos!” “What?!” Aivan asked with a horrified expression, “You’ve met Master Xanthos?!”“That’s right.” Charlie smiled and said, “He also came to Aurous Hill some time ago. As far as I know, h
