At that time, this transaction had far exceeded the local market price, and the buyers were initially dissuaded by the high price.However, Martha was very smart.She could see the couple’s desperate hope for a child, and she also saw that the one-year-old child somewhat resembled the man. So, she had described the child’s appearance to the couple based on the child’s facial features, saying that the child would definitely grow up to resemble the man. In addition, the resourceful Martha had also tugged at the couple’s greatest pain and hope; because of the resemblance, as long as they took the child with them to live in a different place, no one would suspect that the child had been bought when he grew up. Even if they were to bring the child back to their hometown in Oskia after three or five years, no one would suspect that it was not their own child.Moreover, Martha had also told the couple that unlike adopted children, the child that she had brought was not even a week old ye

Just then, her eldest son suddenly called her. As soon as the call was connected, he asked in a flattering manner from the other end of the line, “Mom, are you up yet?”Martha said indifferently, “I’d have been woken up by this phone call even if I was not up yet, so speak up and say what you want to say.”Her eldest son chuckled and hurriedly said, “Mom, do you still remember Saul, who lives next to our house?”“Yes.” Martha asked him, “What’s wrong with him?”Her eldest son laughed hesitantly and said, “Well, nothing’s wrong with him. It’s just... It’s just that...”Martha said coldly, “Speak up if you have something to say. If you don’t know how to say it, I’ll hang up first, then.”Her eldest son hurriedly said, “Don’t! Don’t hang up! Mom, I’ll tell you the truth. I got Saul’s daughter pregnant, and it has already been more than three months. I said that I would give his daughter a hundred thousand dollars to abort the child, but she is unwilling to do so. She wants to give b

Martha’s words gave her eldest son great encouragement.Her eldest son, who was on the other end of the line, could not hide his excitement and said, “Mom, I’m really relieved to hear you say this!”Martha snorted coldly and said, “Let me tell you, you’d better stop fooling around outside anymore in the future. This is especially so with people such as Saul’s daughters! Their level is too low!”Her eldest son hurriedly asked, “Mom, what do you mean when you say that their level is too low? What is it? I don’t understand!”Martha felt resentful because her eldest son could not live up to her expectations and said, “I told you to study harder! I’ve been away for more than twenty f*cking years now, but you don’t even understand what level is. You’re really useless!”Her eldest son laughed and said, “People say that there is an excess of yin which leads to yang deficiency. Mom, you can support our whole family by yourself, so I’m naturally not as capable as you are...”Martha’s mood

Jalen was dumbfounded and said awkwardly, “Martha, it’s not as evil as you make it out to be...”Martha said expressionlessly, “I don’t know if there is such evil or not. People say that you should not put all your eggs in one basket, but the main point is that you cannot have only one egg. If you have enough eggs, God would also be tired if He were to smash them one by one. Besides, He would also feel numb and indifferent if he smashed too many eggs, and maybe He would stop, then.”The other three were all shocked when they heard this.They dared not imagine that Martha was actually referring to her own children and grandchildren when she spoke of these so-called eggs. What she meant was that even if God were to collect her children and grandchildren one by one, He would also be very tired. If He collected more, he might even miss out on one or two and leave them behind. Martha did not take the three people’s shock to heart. Instead, she merely asked lightly, “How long will it

Danny, who weighed more than two hundred pounds, never would have dreamt that the police would come looking for him one day.Danny had always felt that his mother was a person with great ability. She had a way to make a lot of money in the United States, and he only needed to exchange her US dollars to Oskian dollars in Oskia and then enjoy prosperity and wealth. He did not bother to worry about whether his mother’s money came from the right means or whether their own private exchange of foreign currency was illegal or a crime.So, he asked the police with a surprised expression, “What do you mean by that? What do you mean when you say I’m suspected of money laundering? What money did I launder?”The police said coldly, “We have sufficient evidence to prove that all the assets you and your brother own are illegal gains obtained through illegal currency exchange! We also have evidence to prove that you’re laundering money for an offshore criminal organization!”“What?!” Danny said

As soon as the eldest daughter-in-law heard that she might be sentenced to prison, she was scared out of her wits.The second daughter-in-law had a weak personality. So, when she heard this, she was so frightened that she fell to the ground.The eldest daughter-in-law also lost her shrewd attitude from earlier and quickly cried out as she asked the police officer, “So, what should we do now? You have arrested all the men in our family, so should we and our kids wait to die, then?!”The police officer immediately said, “Don’t worry. I will notify your neighborhood committee immediately to pay attention to your situation so that you will not have any needs in life. The neighborhood committee will definitely help you solve your problems, but it’s just as I’ve said, and you must understand what is legal and what is illegal first. There are already three criminal suspects in your family, so don’t push yourself down the path of breaking the law again!” After saying that, the police offi

“What?!” Martha only felt extremely shocked at this moment.She hurriedly asked, “Why did the police arrest them? Did they mention the reason why?”At this moment, Martha kept praying to God in her heart as she hoped that her husband and two sons would have been taken away by the police because of gambling, prostitution, or something else.It would not even matter if they were taken away by the police because of murder. But no matter what it was, it should not be money laundering!This was because murder would be nothing to fuss about!It would not matter even if any one of her two sons or husband were sentenced to death or even if all three of them were sentenced to death. After all, there would be a day when they would come out sooner or later. However, everything would really be over if it was a money laundering crime!That would mean that all the assets that she had worked hard for over so many years would be seized in accordance with the law!More than half of her life’

The second daughter-in-law, who was next to her, then blurted out without hesitation, “If even you don’t dare to do it, I naturally wouldn’t dare to do so either!” As she said that, she cried and said, “The police can seize whatever they want to seize. For so many years, aside from bringing up the children at home, I’ve never done anything illegal in the eyes of the law, so the police definitely will not be able to arrest me.”When the eldest daughter-in-law heard this, she also chimed in and said, “Yes, that’s right... We are just two women, and aside from giving birth, nursing our children, and raising our children, we do not know of anything else, and we have never done anything illegal. The police will certainly not be able to do anything to us!” When Martha heard this, the anger deep in her heart surged. She wanted to rush back immediately and hack these two daughters-in-law of hers to death.She clenched her jaw tightly and said in a cold and hysterical tone, “You have been

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
