Chapter 4682

Penulis: Lord Leaf
Clarissa did not expect that Elaine would offer to go to the hospital with her instead of leaving.

However, Clarissa was not going to head to the hospital. She simply wanted to come up with a suitable excuse so that she could tempt Elaine into taking the bait so that she could hurriedly slip away.

So, she said to Elaine very seriously, “Elaine, there are many things in this suitcase that Lucy has bought for her parents. There are some tonic products and special medicine that cannot be bought in Oskia. I promised Lucy that I would bring these to Hong Kong for her today. I was supposed to go back to Oskia two days ago, but I was waiting for the arrival of these items. Their business will be delayed if I cannot bring these things to them...”

Elaine hurriedly asked, “What are you going to do, then? Aren’t you unable to leave?”

Clarissa nodded and hurriedly said, “I can’t leave today, but you can go back first. I’ll go to the hospital to settle my mother first. Her body must have suffe

    The man asked again, “How much can we get?”Clarissa thought about it and said, “As long as I succeed in getting Elaine to bring the goods in, I will get five thousand US dollars for my hard work regardless of whether she succeeds or not. If Elaine succeeds in bringing the goods in, I will get almost twenty to thirty thousand US dollars.”“That’s great!” The man smiled and said, “Let’s go to Las Vegas to relax after getting this done. D*mn it, I’ve been having bad luck for the first half of the year, and I basically lost all of my f*cking money to the casino. I have to make sure that the casino gives everything back to me in the second half of the year!” Clarissa said, “You can go to Las Vegas, but don’t focus only on gambling when you get there. There are generally many bad gamblers in that kind of place. You have to find a way to trick a few people to go to Mexico.”Having said that, Clarissa sighed and said, “I heard that Martha is doing pretty well. There’s a person who is suc

    The security check process for checked-in luggage at the airport was not the same as the security check process for carry-on luggage.Carry-on luggage was carried through the security check by the guests themselves. In contrast, the checked-in luggage was sent through a conveyor belt to a special place for security check after the check-in and check-in procedures were completed. At this time, Elaine was still unaware of what was going to happen next.After she had checked in both suitcases, she took her boarding pass and swaggered to the security checkpoint. When the woman who was watching her nearby saw her checking in and saw that her suitcases were being sent away on the conveyor belt, she was relieved, stood up immediately, and walked out of the airport. Elaine carried her Hermes bag and leisurely approached the VIP security check channel. After that, she immediately enjoyed the warm service from the staff after showing her first-class boarding pass.While others were stil

    Claire felt a little frustrated.Sometimes, she felt as if she and her mother were people from two different worlds, and she could not find the same communication frequency with her at all.Moreover, she also knew that her mother was a very decisive person, and once she had already decided on a certain plan, it was impossible for anyone to change her mind. So, Claire did not say anything else and simply reminded her, “Then you must tell me before the plane takes off after you get on the plane so I can rest assured.”Elaine smiled and said, “Okay, I’ve got it. You don’t have to worry about it. Tell my dear son-in-law to drive safely. I’ll hang up now.”After saying that, Elaine hung up the video call directly. After hanging up the video call, Elaine went to check the post that she had just uploaded on WhatsApp, which then made her angry again. It was just like the last time when she had been on a private jet and no one had liked her post at all.Elaine could not help but curs

    “Lexus LM300?” Hannah asked in confusion, “What is the LM300?”Elaine blurted out, “It’s the Lexus MPV! You should know that it’s the most expensive MPV in the world! The domestic price of that MPV is more than three million dollars!”Hannah was dumbfounded. “More than three million dollars just to buy an MPV?! If this money was used to buy the Chevrolet Miniev, it could form a line that is longer than a coal train. Isn’t it a little problematic to spend so much money to buy that car?”“What do you know?” Elaine curled her lips and said contemptuously, “You think like a typical poor man. You cannot figure out why the rich would spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy a private jet, so you certainly would not be able to understand why they would spend more than three million dollars to buy an MPV. The world of the rich is not about the best, but it’s about the most expensive!”After pausing for a moment, Elaine then said again, “Besides, what does an MPV that is three million d

    She looked at the police officer with a surprised expression and asked, “Yes, that’s me. What’s wrong?”The police officer continued to ask, “Let me check your personal information with you. You are Elaine Parker from Aurous Hill, Oskia. You’re taking the Cathay Pacific flight CX845 from New York to Hong Kong this time, right?”“That’s right...” Elaine was even more puzzled and asked in disbelief, “Is there any problem with my flight?” The female police officer said coldly, “There is no problem with your flight, but there is a problem with your suitcase! Please come with us to assist us with the investigation.”Elaine hurriedly said, “What could possibly be wrong with my suitcase? Aside from some personal clothing and some local products from New York, I didn’t put anything else like lithium batteries in it...”The female police officer snorted coldly, “There is no need for any unnecessary sophistry. There are other passengers here, so please take the initiative to come with me s

    The Caucasian police officer could not understand the Oskian dialect, but he could still understand the English that was mixed in Elaine’s words.He did not expect Elaine to actually say that she was his mother, and he immediately became furious. He then deliberately increased the strength in his knees and pressed down even harder on Elaine.Elaine only felt a sharp pain in her body, and she could hardly breathe because of the pressure. After that, she heard a click, and she instantly felt a sharper pain. The police officer had broken her rib!At this moment, Elaine broke out in cold sweat from the pain as she cried and shouted, “My rib is broken! My rib is broken! Help! I’m dying from the pain...”Having said that, she looked at the female police officer and blurted out, “Hurry up and stop him! Otherwise, he will crush me to death! Is this how you treat first-class passengers?!”The female police officer said coldly, “This is the first time I’ve met a drug dealer like you. Do you

    Elaine hurriedly said, “I did not even ask for a single penny! I was just helping a friend out...”Elaine actually felt very guilty when she said this.This was because she knew very well in her heart that the reason why she had agreed to help Clarissa with the suitcase was simply because Clarissa had said that she would give her a Lexus LM300 and would also take her around Hong Kong for a few days. However, Elaine felt that all these things were simply verbal promises. After all, she had not received a penny from the woman, so the police couldn't possibly find any evidence.The female police officer then glanced at Elaine with a slightly compassionate look. After that, she then took Elaine to their police station which was next to the airport terminal together with her colleagues.Elaine cried and wailed all the way because of her broken rib as she hoped to be able to receive treatment first, but the female police officer said, “It’s just a broken rib, so there’s no need for you

    When the female police officer saw that Elaine wanted to contact her family, she nodded. “Okay, you have the right to contact your family and have your family arrange a criminal lawyer for you.”After that, she took out Elaine’s cell phone, handed it to Elaine, and said, “Remember, you can only call your family or your lawyer. If you call your accomplice to inform them about this matter, it will only make you guiltier!”Elaine cried and said, “Don’t you understand what I just said?! I already told you that I was wronged and I’m being set up by others. Where am I going to find any accomplices?!”The female police officer said indifferently, “It’s not up to you nor is it up to me to have the final say on whether you were wronged or not, or whether you were being set up or not. When the trial begins, everything will be subjected to the judge’s verdict.”Elaine glanced at the female police officer angrily and then immediately picked up her cell phone and called Claire. When Claire an

    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…

    Charlie was driving Jacob to Thompson First when the latter received the text from Matilda.Seeing that they were reaching the front gates, Jacob promptly snapped at Charlie, "Charlie, stop the car now!"Charlie did so and asked in curiosity, "What's wrong?""Matilda just texted me," Jacob replied, showing the chat log between him and Matilda.Charlie was just glancing at it nonchalantly when he saw that Matilda's contact name was 'AAA July Florist'."Wait, why is that Aunt Matilda's contact name?" He exclaimed in surprise."I changed it."Jacob explained gingerly while reading through the text Matilda sent. "Her profile picture is an iris, so I changed her contact name to a florist since I'm mostly worried Elaine would peek into my phone.""Anyway, she's asking if I'm attending her wedding with Yolden. They would send us an invitation if I accept, extended to our whole family… what do you think I should say?"Charlie asked in return. "You're planning to skip it, aren't you? T
