Chapter 4693

Author: Lord Leaf
Charlie said politely, “Lord Fox, I’ve encountered a problem that I need your help with.”

Jordan hurriedly said, “Mr. Wade, please speak up! I will definitely do anything as long as I’m able to do it!”

Charlie said briefly, “My mother-in-law was used by a group of people. She was caught carrying contraband unknowingly at customs at JFK New York Airport, and she has been arrested by the police over there. I need you to help me find the best criminal lawyer in New York and have him rush over there within an hour to find out what’s going on.”

When Jordan heard this, he was stunned. He really could not imagine who it was that would provoke Charlie without any fear of death.

However, he quickly regained his senses and said very seriously, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. I’ll have the best law firm send their best criminal lawyer over there!”

Charlie had a somewhat grim expression as he said, “There is one more thing. My mother-in-law said that the police officer broke one of her ribs. I think

    Charlie found an open place to stop the car, and after sending the location to Jordan, he then continued to comfort Claire.By the time Claire’s mood had finally stabilized, the helicopter arranged by Jordan also arrived.The person who had come was Jordan’s butler. After the helicopter stopped, he opened the hatch and got out of the helicopter as he said respectfully to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, our master has given instruction for the helicopter to take you and your wife back to Providence, and I will drive your car for you. Do you want your car to be driven to New York or Providence?”Charlie thought about leaving the car to Claire in case she still needed something. So, he said to Jordan’s butler, “Help me bring my suitcase to the helicopter first, then help me drive the car to the Hilton hotel in Providence. Just leave the car key at the front desk.”“Okay!” The butler nodded and quickly took out the suitcase from Charlie’s car trunk with one of his own subordinates and sent it to

    So, they only left two Oskian police officers in the interrogation room to take down Elaine’s statement, whereas the others ordered a bunch of coffee, fries, fried chicken, and pizza, and they ate supper in the lobby of the police station. Everyone was very happy at the moment because they had successfully cracked a very significant case of contraband smuggling, and the case involved the latest kind of synthetic contraband which was worth over ten million US dollars. They reported the case to the New York Police Department as soon as possible, and the police commissioner called them personally to congratulate them. He even said that they should hurry up and get Elaine’s statement, and then report the matter to the media and let the media come over to interview them and come up with a proper report. This was a good opportunity for the police officers of the airport police station to show themselves. So, everyone was very excited at the moment. Even if some people had already rea

    The division chief looked out the door at this time. When he saw the Maybach parked at the door, he stood up straight immediately, and as he straightened out his clothes, he smiled and said, “Could it be that the leaders from the city police department are here? Or could it be that the councilman is here? Guys, straighten out your clothes. Perhaps the media will be here soon as soon as the big shot comes!”Everyone immediately became excited. One of them hurriedly said, “Quick! Hurry up and clean up the pizza, fried chicken, and nuggets on the table. Don’t let the media take a picture of that!” The people inside got excited and busy. Meanwhile, the person in the passenger seat of the Maybach got down. It was a young man in a suit. After getting out of the car, he hurriedly walked to the back and opened the rear car door. Immediately afterward, a middle-aged man with white hair, an upright figure, and a grim expression came out of the car.When everyone in the police station saw h

    Jakel and his assistant then walked to the interrogation room.As soon as the police officer pushed the door open, Jakel immediately said to the two police officers in charge of the interrogation, “Guys, the interrogation is over now. From now on, I want to communicate with my client in private. Please leave.”The two police officers in charge of the interrogation recognized Jakel immediately. They were too shocked to speak, but their colleague, who had just opened the door, quickly said, “Come out quickly and let Mr. White speak to his client in private.”Only then did the two men nod hastily and then rush to pick up the transcript and run out the door. Jakel said to the police officer next to him, “My client doesn’t understand American law, and she has a language barrier. She hasn’t met with her lawyer yet, so if there are any threatening or inducing elements in your transcript, you’d better invalidate it. Don’t let me catch anything, otherwise, I will definitely challenge it in

    “F*ck...”The division chief suddenly felt his heart beating frantically at this moment. ‘What the hell is this situation?! How can Mad Dog White bring up the topic of racial discrimination in just two sentences?!’In the United States, the police were most afraid of the words ‘racial discrimination’. Once things reached the level of these two words, things would immediately rise to the most serious level.The police officer involved would not only be expelled from the police force, but even his own division chief might be subject to very serious disciplinary action. In the case of a mass incident, the division chief could only take the blame and resign.So, he quickly explained to Jakel, “Mr. White, this matter has nothing to do with racial discrimination. The most important reason is because this case is really serious, so my subordinates were eager to investigate the whole situation and ins and outs of the incident so that the mastermind could be arrested as soon as possib

    This was Charlie’s intention.After all, Elaine was not just Elaine but also Charlie’s mother-in-law. Even if this matter was finally resolved in the end, Charlie did not want others to know that his mother-in-law had been involved in such a ridiculous and absurd scam. On one hand, he could not afford to lose this person, and on the other hand, if this matter were to end up becoming a big deal and Elaine was known at an international level, as her son-in-law, people might also end up investigating him.Therefore, Charlie’s request was to solve this problem in a low-profile manner instead of making too much action.The reason why Jakel had said that was also to attack instead of defending. People like Jakel knew that he could never let his opponent know of his true demands.Once his opponent found out that he did not want this matter to be exposed, the opponent would definitely use this matter to test his bottom line. So, instead of that, it would be better for him to countera

    No one had treated Elaine with respect ever since her arrest.The combination of her injury and fear had caused a great negative impact on her body and mind.When Elaine saw Jakel speaking so respectfully to her now, she instantly burst into tears with excitement.She cried as she said extremely aggrievedly, “They not only hit me and scolded me, but they also threatened and intimidated me... I already told them many times that I was deceived and I did not know what was in that suitcase, but they were still very impatient with me as if I’m a criminal... They are simply too much...”When the division chief who was aside heard this, he was stunned, and he rebuked immediately, “B*stards! Why didn’t you send Madam Elaine to the hospital in time?! Why did you continue interrogating Madam Elaine even though you knew that she was injured?! Besides, how did Madam Elaine even get injured, and who caused it? Step forward now and tell me clearly!”Everyone was so nervous that they did not kn

    After Jim had left, the division chief hurriedly looked at Jakel with a flattering expression and said, “Mr. White, I will arrange for someone to take Madam Elaine to go see a doctor first. I will also communicate with my superiors about the media and ask them not to notify the media about this matter for the time being. We should be unified to keep silent before the media first. As you know, there are also too many issues related to racial discrimination in American society now, and there are also various continuous protests going on. So, we should not be adding chaos to the general environment. What do you think?”Jakel glanced at the division chief and said lightly, “If you can give my client enough humanitarian treatment, I can keep this matter from the media for the time being, but I also reserve the right to notify the media.”When the division chief heard this, he finally heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, “In that case, we will arrange medical treatment for Madam Ela

    Jacob zipped toward Raymond, his attitude immediately subservient, "I'm sure you've seen what Zachary Evans posted on his Twitter page, and to be honest, it's so terrible that my position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association has been affected too. I mean, you've made a lot of money, right?"Hell, even if you donated ten million, you'd still have another ten million and 970 thousand in net profits. So, all I'd like to ask is for you to post something to disclaim Zachary's post.Jacob's words left Raymond in thought.For Jacob, just being suspected of fraud would definitely be terrible. In fact, his position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association would definitely be threatened—if not dismissed altogether—if he wasn't cleared of suspicion.Since Jacob was Charlie Wade's father-in-law, Raymond had reason not to drive Jacob over the brink.But that also begged another question—it must be under Charlie's intention for Zachary to post his confession, and that meant Charlie in

    Raymond couldn't help chuckling just as Jacob finished—he had honestly never heard of anyone who demanded a refund after donating to charity, but he was certainly seeing one now.Still, the receptionist was clearly experienced and slowly explained, "Sir, it's a legal clause of the country that all donations for philanthropy purposes can not be refunded under most circumstances—""It truly was a mistake," Jacob quickly said, cutting the receptionist off. "I was going to donate thirty thousand but pressed an extra zero by mistake. Please discuss this with your management—you just have to refund 27 thousand, see?""Sorry, sir," the receptionist apologized. "But it's a strict rule that we ourselves do not get to access the funds that have been donated into our accounts. Every donation will be screened extensively, and if you consider that there was a major oversight on your part, you may seek legal counsel to appeal for a refund. If the courts back your appeal, our organization will the

    Nonetheless, Jacob darted into Treasure Measure and plucked off his mask, asking nervously, "Excuse me, Mr. Cole? It's me… Jacob Wilson…"Raymond looked up, pausing for a moment before acting as if he was actually curious, "Mr. Wilson! What brings you here? Don't tell me—you want that bronze sculpture back too?""No, no, no…" Jacob quickly shook his head. "I would never… I returned all the way from Dubai to apologize!""Apologize?" Raymond smiled faintly, and he did not play dumb this time as he asked bluntly, "Did you come back because of Zachary Evan's post?"Knowing he couldn't deny it any longer, Jacob nodded, "Yeah…"Raymond nodded and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. I was the one who benefited in the end."Jacob wasn't quite keeping up—thinking that Raymond was just trying to be nice by telling him he didn't have to apologize, he quickly pulled out his phone.Tapping on it and bringing up his transaction records, he handed it to Raymond reverently, "Mr. Cole, I understan

    The cabbie chuckled. "You're a local yet you're heading to Antique Street right away as soon as you land instead of going home? And you're still saying you're not trying to pick up a killer bargain deal?"Come on, man—it's not just you, I want that too. We cabbies work ourselves to death only for ten thousand per month at best while our friend over there made twenty million in one night. I could keep driving cabs for the rest of my life and still not make that much money."Jacob knew that the cabbie must be talking about Raymond and became even more miserable then, grumbling unhappily, "I'm going to Antique Street for business—I'm not trying to pick up some missed bargain.""No? Then you didn't hear what happened yesterday?"The cabbie was immediately curious, and without waiting for Jacob's answer, he exclaimed happily, "Look, man—it was so ridiculous not even Hollywood would put it in their script. There were these fools who were trying to sell an antique trader a replica, but th

    It was nighttime in Dubai as Jacob dragged his weary body from the hotel back to the airport.As he was flying economy this time, he was left sitting at the hard bench near the boarding terminal, waiting for it to open.While he waited, his heart was torn as he tapped into the website of the Aurous Hill Charity Fund, found their donation account, and wired the entire 300 thousand he had made over to them.He had picked the Aurous Hill Charity Fund because the circles of antique collectors in Aurous Hill were all discussing how Raymond had donated half of the 20 million he had made to that same charity fund.After Raymond skyrocketed to prominence in Antique Street and became a star, it could not be denied that people admired his profound ability.However, there were also people who envied his skill in turning the tables just as there were those who were jealous he had made twenty million in a single night.Still, Raymond moved fast—soon after word spread that he had made twenty m

    Elaine quickly asked, "Well, what if you can't get it done?"Jacob was apprehensive even as he sighed. "If they really pressed the issue, guess I can't even stay at the Calligraphy and Painting Association now… We will see. If things get bad, I'll just resign. I won't ask for much right now, just as long as I don't have to go to jail."Elaine nodded. "Then you should try to reason things out with Raymond Cole or ask for Charlie's help if push comes to shove. Being humiliated is still better than prison.""Okay!"-It was nighttime at Aurous Hill by the time Elaine and Jacob arrived at their hotel.Charlie and Claire had just had dinner, and Claire pulled out her phone, saying, "I just checked my flight app, and it says my parents should have landed two hours ago. They are probably at the hotel, so I'll check in on them with a video call."She had yet to open her WhatsApp when Elaine called her on a video call.Jacob was planning to check in with Claire and Charlie to put their

    Hearing what Jacob had said, Elaine became anxious and pressed him as he hung up, "What's going on? You're leaving? But we just got here! My shoes have just caught Dubai dirt, so why are we leaving so soon—"However, Jacob was wiping the sweat off his brow as he mumbled quietly, "Well, at this point, I have to leave or I won't be vice president anymore."Elaine immediately fumed. "We've been married for half our lives, and this is supposed to be our honeymoon, yet we're just leaving? I've posted about this on social media too—there are plenty of people who're waiting for more posts on our trip!"And don't forget—we spent a lot on our flight tickets and our hotels! The hotel bookings can't be refunded either!"Jacob scowled dolefully. "Well, what can we do? Why don't you stay? I'll go home and get this sorted out first….""Well, how long would that take?" Elaine asked."How should I know?" Jacob sighed, uneasy and annoyed. "Don Albert is saying I have to go back and donate the 300

    "But I spent 98 thousand on that bronze sculpture!" Jacob exclaimed in agitation before he knew it. "I made 300 thousand from it, and that means my profit was 200 thousand at best, but I'm supposed to return that to him as well?! That means I'd have lost my own capital too!""I can't help you if you can't bear to part with that money, Mr. Wilson," Don Albert said quietly. "In that case, you'll just have to handle it yourself.""Wait, wait, wait!" Jacob immediately became antsy and cried out right then, "Please, Don Albert! I'll return the money! I'll return it, alright?! The entirety of my profits—202 thousand, okay? At least let me keep the money I spent, okay?""By that reasoning, Mr. Wilson, when a phone scammer is told by the cops to return the money they've made from defrauding, should he be allowed to keep the money he spent on telco charges? ""Oh, I…" Jacob was left stumped and could not come up with an answer.Don Albert then pressed on, "Mr. Wilson, I've offered a prom

    "Mr. Wilson, what you boys did was truly heinous!" Don Arnold growled. "I scolded Zachary myself when I found out, and I was the one who told him to post that statement!"Jacob was shocked. "But why, Don Arnold? Are you friends with Raymond Cole?""Never met the guy," Don Arnold replied.That left Jacob even more confused. "Then why are you taking his side?""I've been doing my best to clean up my image over the past couple of years," Don Albert replied coolly. "I rarely get involved in mob business or anything illicit, and everyone in Aurous Hill knows that Zachary is my right-hand man, yet he confessed to committing such a heinous crime behind my back. What is that if not sullying my reputation?"Jacob was left reeling as he didn't expect Don Albert to be so serious, but he quickly explained, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to affect you so terribly… It's all Zachary's fault! I wouldn't have been aware that Raymond had returned at all, but he just had to tell me and come up with
