Charlie did not expect that Claire could predict Elaine’s behavior so accurately. So, he smiled and said, “Oh, you should not worry too much about this. Since it’s a gift for Mom, she has the freedom to do whatever she wants with it, and we have no right to interfere.”“Besides, I don’t think Mom would do such a thing. If you don’t believe me, you can check and see if she still has this necklace with her when we return to Oskia.”Claire could not help but sigh and say helplessly, “I don’t want to interfere in her affairs, but what she does sometimes can be really disappointing. After all, you gave her this necklace, so I hope that she will not be so materialistic and sell it.”Charlie smiled and said, “Don’t worry. This necklace will definitely still be there when we get back.”Claire did not know why Charlie was so certain, but it would not be good to discuss this kind of hypothetical issue too deeply. So, she nodded and sighed, “I hope so...”***The Fox family, New York.When

When Jordan arrived at the entrance of the main villa with the butler’s help, Kathleen’s convoy also happened to just arrive.The rest of the Fox family members also came out at this time.After Kathleen got out of the car and saw that her grandfather had come out to greet her in person, she understood her grandfather’s thoughts immediately. She then thought of how she had a Healing Pill that Charlie had given her in her pocket, and she instantly felt a little apprehensive and uneasy.She knew that her grandfather’s expectations for the Rejuvenating Pill and the Healing Pill had already surpassed everything. So, as his granddaughter, she should not hesitate to give this Healing Pill to her grandfather. However, when she thought of Charlie’s previous instructions, she could only hold back her urge to do so.So, she hurriedly walked to the old man’s side and said respectfully, “Grandpa, why did you come out in person?”The old man looked earnestly at Kathleen and smiled as he said

When Jordan saw Kathleen’s surprised expression, he smiled and said, “Kathleen, you’re the head of the Fox family now, so it’s only right that you sit in this position.”Kathleen hurriedly said, “Grandpa, this is your study room and desk. Even if I’m the head of the Fox family, I’m still your granddaughter at home. It would be an official business affair if I sat in the chairman’s office at the company, but how could I sit in your seat at home?”Jordan waved his hand and said solemnly, “The Fox family is a family business. Our home is a business, and business is our home. You’re the head of the Fox family, and this status is not only as the chairman of Fox Group but also as the leader of the entire Fox family. Even I have to listen to your command and obey you.”Upon saying that, Jordan sat down on one of the three chairs first without waiting for Kathleen to speak up. After that, he then said to Kathleen, “Please take a seat, Kathleen.”Kathleen felt a little stressed for a moment

Kathleen felt a little flustered the moment her grandfather asked her this question.Fortunately, Charlie had already prepared her in advance for this matter so that she would not be a complete mess when she had to deal with this matter.So, she spoke up calmly, “Grandpa, Mr. Wade told me clearly on the way back this time that he is very satisfied with the Fox family’s performance in many matters during this period of time. Therefore, he will come to New York to meet you in person and express his gratitude to you.”Jordan suddenly became a little nervous and could not help but ask, “Kathleen, did Mr. Wade really say that?!”“Yes.” Kathleen nodded and said word by word, “Mr. Wade originally said that he would definitely do something to thank the Fox family, but I requested for him to consider your situation and take care of you and your feelings as much as possible.”Kathleen had some extra thoughts of her own at this time. In truth, Charlie had given the Fox family two rewards i

Previously, she had bought the Emerald Goddess Dream necklace with the money Charlie had given her and won a grand prize worth 1.2 million dollars. Unexpectedly, Charlie had given her an identical necklace. So, as long as she went back and sold this necklace, this would be equivalent to her earning a necklace for nothing and also experiencing an excellent trip in a private jet followed by a few days in the United States.She would subsequently be waiting to go to New York to play for two days before she would finally return home in satisfaction.She would be able to regain her previous free and comfortable life, which would be very pleasant after she had returned. Elaine was very happy as she joined the Rampage Team, and she was constantly grinning because she was in a good mood and could not contain her happiness.She soon felt that her mouth was a little dry because she was breathing with her mouth open, and this made her breathing uneven. She could not keep up with everyone’s r

When Elaine returned to the presidential suite of the Hilton hotel, the first thing she asked Claire and Charlie upon entering the door was, “Claire, Charlie, do you two have anything to do tomorrow night?”Claire asked curiously, “What’s wrong, Mom?”Elaine explained, “I have a very close friend in the Rampage Team. She said that she wants to invite our family of three to her house. This friend of mine has moved from Oskia to the United States for many years now, and she has only been able to make a few close friends. She said that it’s rare for her to meet a good friend like me whom she can chat with easily about everything. Since I’m about to leave soon, she wants to invite me to her house for a meal before I leave. It can also be considered as a farewell for me.”Claire immediately asked with some surprise, “Mom, you can still find a good friend whom you can talk to?”Elaine pouted and said, “Oh, look at what you’re saying. Didn’t I have friends before this? Didn’t Gina, Sheila

As Elaine spoke, she said very solemnly, “You two cannot let me go back on my word when it comes to this kind of matter!”Claire looked at Charlie and asked, “Honey, what do you think?”Charlie smiled faintly and said, “Since Mom has already made an agreement with others, it would really be inappropriate for us not to go.”Elaine hurriedly nodded and blurted out, “My dear son-in-law is indeed the best at the most critical moment!”After that, she quickly seized the opportunity and said, “This matter is settled, then. We will go there together at six o’clock in the evening tomorrow. Claire, you can attend your class as usual tomorrow, and my dear son-in-law can come and buy some gifts with me. It’s our first time visiting someone’s house, so it’d not be good for us to go empty-handed.”When Claire saw that Charlie had agreed, she could not say anything else. So, she nodded and said, “Okay, then.”***The following afternoon, Elaine brought Charlie with her as they drove to downto

Lucy warmly invited Charlie’s family into the house. At this time, the living room was already filled with the aroma of food. The interior decoration of this villa was very elegant. At first glance, a lot of effort had been put into it, and it could even be compared to the first-class villa in Thompson First. There were many photos of adults and children hanging on the walls of the home, and each of the photos was very heartwarming. After looking around, Elaine gained a new understanding of Lucy’s strength, and she hurriedly introduced Lucy to Claire and Charlie as she smiled and said, “This is Lucy, the vice-captain of our Rampage Team that I always tell you about! You two should call her Aunt Lucy!”Having said that, Elaine then said to Lucy, “Lucy, this is my daughter, Claire, and the one next to her is my son-in-law, Charlie.” Claire said politely to Lucy, “Hello, Aunt Lucy. I’m sorry to bother you!” Lucy smiled and said, “What are you saying?! Although your mother and I

The other antique traders who were keeping tabs on the situation were left confused by Trippy's message.[Maybe even those out-of-towners know that Raymond is a sucker? So they traveled overnight just to see what happens?][I know Raymond is in trouble, but is it really worth traveling hundreds of miles just to watch?][Maybe they know he's a sucker, so they came to sell him more counterfeits?][Shit, that must be it! Suckers are rare these days, after all!][Damn straight! Just knowing that there's one in Aurous Hill, you'd be eager to come over.]Even Mick Crane who had just woken up and saw the message immediately sent a voice message: "Those conmen are just like flies flocking around shit as soon as they smell it.""Oh, but what they don't know is that Raymond has no more money! I heard he only had a few hundred thousand for the startup, and the bronze sculpture must have cost most of it. I'm afraid those people won't even get their gas money and toll costs back after travel

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l
