Friday came quickly.As Elaine was leaving for New York today, she got up early in the morning and started packing her suitcase.Elaine was already anxious to return home as soon as possible now. The afternoon finally came, and after Claire’s class had ended, Charlie drove Elaine to pick up Claire at the school gate. The three of them then drove to New York directly.According to Charlie’s plan, after arriving in New York on Friday night, they would take Elaine out for a stroll around New York’s night scene so that she could take a look at the Statue of Liberty. After that, they would take her around New York on Saturday and bring her shopping in New York during the daytime on Sunday before sending her to the airport in the afternoon.For Elaine, although her time in the United States this time was short, it was still a trip out of the country. So, she had to buy some local souvenirs and specialties from New York. Elaine sat in the back seat alone on the way to New York. She to
At that time, she would have to post more pictures on her WhatsApp profile so that her circle of friends could take a good look at her unrestrained lifestyle. ***Charlie still chose to stay at the Wade family’s Shangri-La hotel in New York this time.Isaac had already instructed the hotel to reserve a presidential suite for Charlie in advance. After checking in, Charlie took Claire and Elaine to have dinner at the hotel. After that, he brought Elaine on a tour of New York’s night scenery with Claire.While Claire was helping Elaine take a photo with the Statue of Liberty, Charlie walked to the side and called Kathleen. When the call was connected, Kathleen answered respectfully from the other end of the line, “Good evening, Mr. Wade.”Charlie hummed in reply and said, “Miss Fox, I’m calling to tell you that I’ve arrived in New York. I will come and visit you at your house tomorrow, so please tell Lord Fox to wait for me at home.”Kathleen said excitedly, “That’s great! I to
Charlie and Claire accompanied Elaine to have a whole day of fun in New York the next day.During lunch, Charlie mentioned that there was a client in New York who wanted to discuss something with him at night, and Claire and Elaine did not think much of it. After all, Charlie was very busy with his ‘career’ now, and the two of them had long been psychologically prepared for this.Charlie accompanied and had dinner with both of them before driving them back to the hotel. After that, he drove to the Fox family’s private manor on Long Island. Charlie had originally planned to come over to meet with Lord Fox so that he could give him the promise that he had always been dreaming of in front of Kathleen. At the same time, he wanted to ensure that Lord Fox would give Kathleen unwavering support for as long as he lived. However, what Charlie did not expect was that when Lord Fox found out that Charlie was coming, he had notified everyone in the Fox family the previous night and asked all
Kathleen then said somewhat nervously, “Mr. Wade, how could I possibly sit on a seat higher than you when you’re here?! Why don’t you sit on the master seat instead?”Charlie smiled faintly, waved his hand gently, and said, “You are the master of this family, so you are the biggest here no matter who comes. As a guest, I cannot take the master seat away from you.”Subsequently, Charlie pulled out the seat opposite Kathleen and sat down directly. Kathleen was suddenly at a loss for what to do, but Jordan, who was aside, then said, “Kathleen, you should follow Mr. Wade’s instructions. Mr. Wade is right. You’re the head of the Fox family, and there is no one else who is qualified to sit in that seat.”Kathleen had no choice but to sit down.In fact, in Oskian etiquette, what was most important was respect.It was just like how whoever had the higher status would hold their wine glass higher when toasting at the dinner table. If someone did not have the qualifications and strength b
“Give up the Rejuvenating Pill?”When Jordan heard Charlie’s words, he was first stunned before he asked with some trepidation, “Mr. Wade... You... Why are you making such a request?”Charlie looked at him and said indifferently, “Lord Fox, if the auction continues next year, do you think that you will be able to successfully win the bid for the auction of the Rejuvenating Pill with your economic strength?” “Well...” Jordan could not help but recall the auction scene at that time. His limit was only two hundred billion US dollars, but Christian’s asking price was almost twice as high as his own. If the Rejuvenating Pill reached this price again next year, he would not be able to afford it anymore. Furthermore, it was impossible for him to sacrifice the interest of the Fox family for his own selfish interests. The incident last time had taught him a very, very painful lesson. Therefore, he could not make the same mistake twice.This also meant that he would basically lose the qua
Jordan, who was extremely happy, trembled immediately as he cupped his hands together and raised his hands above his head as he said respectfully, “I... I would like to grovel to thank you for the pill, Mr. Wade!”Charlie placed the pill in Jordan’s palm and said indifferently, “Lord Fox, you’re welcome. Why don’t you get up and eat the pill first?”Still, Jordan did not dare to get up. Instead, he knelt on the ground and carefully placed the half of a Healing Pill in his mouth.The half of a Healing Pill melted in his mouth and then turned into a warm current that flowed directly into his elixir field before flowing throughout his whole body through his meridians. In just a moment, Jordan felt that his body’s physical condition was in a much better state. He had still experienced a lot of inconveniences moving around before this, but now, he immediately felt that his whole body was much more relaxed.Just as he was extremely happy and carefully experiencing indescribable pleasur
The next day was already the day for Elaine to return to Oskia.Charlie had specially brought Elaine to buy more than twenty to thirty thousand US dollars of various specialties and gifts. Although he did not say anything, he treated this as a gift to thank Elaine because she had come to accompany Claire in the United States this time. Charlie and Claire sent Elaine to the New York JFK Airport at five o’clock in the evening. Elaine was not in a hurry to go through the check-in procedures because Charlie had bought a first-class flight ticket for her. Instead, she said to Charlie and Claire, “Charlie, Claire, you two don’t have to go through all the trouble of sending me in and watching me go through the security check. The friend that Lucy introduced to me happens to be on the same flight as me. She sent me a WhatsApp message just now saying that there is a first-class lounge as soon as we enter the airport. She asked me to wait there for her for a while so that we can go in and c
At this point, Elaine did not know what was in store for her. Elaine entered the airport, but she did not rush to the security check. Instead, she looked for the first-class lounge according to Clarissa’s instructions.She went in and had only sat there for less than ten minutes before a woman who was dressed very extravagantly walked in with a suitcase and handbag.Elaine recognized at a glance that this woman was her new friend, Clarissa, based on the WhatsApp profile picture and photos in her WhatsApp profile.So, she was a little nervous and excited as she waved at her, smiled, and said, “Hello, Madam Zinn! I’m Elaine! Nice to meet you!” When Clarissa saw Elaine, she could not help but say with some surprise, “Oh, Elaine! We finally meet! You must have been waiting here for a long time. I’m sorry, but I was still hosting a meeting before coming to the airport. You don’t know how many things I have to do all day long. It really makes me frustrated.”Elaine smiled and said, “
