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

As Jakel was accompanying Elaine to the hospital, Charlie was on his way to New York.Jakel reported the situation to Jordan promptly, and Jordan then reported the situation to Charlie immediately. According to Jakel, he would only be able to apply for one to two days of hospital treatment time for Elaine at most, but Elaine would have to attend the preliminary hearing after the hospital treatment was over. During the preliminary hearing, the judge would make a ruling on whether Elaine could be released on bail based on the general circumstances of the case. If she could be released on bail, the judge would give a bail amount, and as long as the money was available, she would be able to temporarily regain her freedom.However, according to Jakel, the amount of contraband involved in Elaine’s case was too large, so bail was basically impossible. This meant that Elaine would temporarily be held in a detention center after the preliminary hearing.Similarly, the United States a

Charlie then said again, “There is one more thing.”Porter said respectfully, “Mr. Wade, please speak up.”Charlie said seriously, “Help me investigate an Oskian person named Lucy Cardy in Providence. She looks like she’s in her fifties, and I believe she is using a fake identity. However, since she has used this fake identity to live in Providence, she must have left some clues behind. So, I need you to help me find out this person’s current whereabouts as soon as possible.”Having said that, Charlie instructed again, “Also, their gang should have a counterpart here in New York. Find a way to investigate the surveillance at the airport and find out who exactly interacted and had contact with my mother-in-law. After that, find a way to find out her whereabouts as well. It’d be best if you can catch the person directly.”“No problem!” Porter said without hesitation, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. You can leave everything to me!” Charlie knew very well that Lucy would definitely find a wa

By the time Charlie had rushed back to New York, it was already night.Since Kathleen had kindly invited him to stay at Fox Mansion before he had arrived in New York, Charlie had agreed to it. There would be many inconveniences for him even if he were to go to a hotel at the last minute. It would be relatively more convenient for him to stay at Fox Mansion temporarily.When the helicopter arrived home, the members of the Fox family came out to greet Charlie again.They were still led by Jordan and Kathleen as they waited for Charlie’s arrival again.As soon as they met, Jordan stepped forward with Kathleen’s support and said very respectfully, “Mr. Wade, I’ve already asked someone to prepare the banquet. I believe that you haven’t eaten yet after all the hard work, so why don’t we go to the dining room for dinner first? What do you think?”Charlie hadn’t eaten since he had dropped Elaine off in the afternoon, so as soon as Jordan reminded him, he felt a little hungry. Therefore,

Charlie nodded, recalled something, and asked him, “Lord Fox, as far as you know, have there been many cases where compatriots harm their own compatriots in the United States over the past few years?” Jordan smiled awkwardly and said seriously, “There have indeed been many such cases. In fact, this kind of thing has been commonly seen in the United States...”Having said that, Jordan said again, “Of course, it’s not just our Oskian compatriots who are in this situation. In truth, people from other countries are also facing similar problems.”After pausing for a moment, Jordan explained, “As you know, the United States is a country of immigrants, so the composition of the population here is very complex. There are many ethnic minorities, and there are often two extremes to these ethnic minorities due to the new arrivals and language barrier.”“The first extreme is that they would get particularly close to their fellow countrymen. Everyone would be closely knitted together to take c

Jordan smiled helplessly and said, “Generally, the internal risk isolation is done very well for this kind of organization. It is equivalent to making multiple fire doors. Once there is a fire, the outermost fire door will be shut first, and if the fire is blocked, they will redevelop the peripheral downline. If they cannot stop it, they will close the second fire door until it can be blocked. Therefore, for so long, they have only lost some peripheral members, and the core members did not suffer any threats. Instead, they have even accumulated a huge amount of wealth and resources, and they have also become more powerful in strength.Charlie nodded and said coldly, “That is to say that the core members of this organization have a large number of scapegoats. Every time something goes wrong, they only need to drag a group of people out to bear the responsibility for that matter.”“Yes.” Jordan said, “This is the drawback of the law under certain circumstances. At the legal level, as l

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
