Ichiro had to muster up his courage to call his father.At this time, Masao was anxiously waiting for the magical pills to arrive in Tokyo.He was a very impatient person and he had already asked his family to hire an ambulance to take him directly to the airport so he could wait there instead.The Kobayashi family was very reputable in Tokyo. They even had a private independent hangar in Tokyo Airport for their private jet. Besides that, there was also a very high-end lounge in this hangar which was owned by the Kobayashi family. Therefore, Masao took his second son, Jiro, to the airport as he waited for the magical pills to arrive in Tokyo.At this time, he suddenly received a phone call from Ichiro. Masao hurriedly asked, “Ichiro, I heard that you did not board that plane when it took off earlier. Where are you now?”Ichiro hurriedly replied, “Dad! I was captured by the young lord of the Wade family in Eastcliff. He accused me of stealing the magical pills and their prescript
An hour later, a global express private jet landed at Tokyo Airport.After the plane landed, it taxied all the way to its own private hangar.Masao had been waiting in the hangar for a long time.As soon as the plane entered the hangar, it stopped and the door opened immediately. After that, Ichiro’s assistant jumped out of the plane eagerly with the small wooden box in his hand. He quickly ran towards Masao at this time.At this time, Masao was really looking forward to the medicine as he sat in the wheelchair. His second son Jiro was pushing the wheelchair with a blank expression on his face at this time.In fact, Jiro was really very annoyed. He was already winning the competition to become the heir of the family. Moreover, he depended on his own strength and ability to beat and dominate his own elder brother. Unexpectedly, his elder brother had actually gone to Aurous Hill just to steal the magical pills.If this medicine was really so magical, then it would not only cure his
Yes! A miracle! This is a miracle that even Amaterasu might not be able to achieve!”Masao was so excited that he almost went insane!Just as he was ecstatic and excited, Charlie’s phone call came in immediately.“Mr. Kobayashi, how does the effect of the medicine feel?”At this time, Masao was completely convinced of the magic medicine’s ability at this point. Therefore, he blurted out excitedly, “Mr. Wade, I accept your terms and conditions! I will purchase the patent for these magical pills for ten billion dollars!”Charlie replied, “I will give you my bank account number now. You had better transfer the money over to me within twenty minutes. Otherwise, I will expose all of your crimes and deceit to the world!”Masao hurriedly replied, “Mr. Wade, you can rest assured that I will arrange for my financial staff to transfer the money over to you now!”In fact, all of the funds in the entire Kobayashi Pharma’s financial books added up to just a little more than ten billion dolla
Albert started driving an excited Ichiro as they rushed to the airport.Ichiro was very excited. Even though his family had to pay Charlie ten billion dollars for the medicine prescription, his father’s paralysis had been completely cured! Moreover, Kobayashi Pharma also obtained the prescription for the magic medicine.With this prescription, Kobayashi Pharma would be able to usher in rapid development.When he became the chairman of Kobayashi Pharma, he would finally be able to reach the pinnacle of his life!Thus, he could not wait to grow a pair of wings and return to Tokyo immediately to accept his father’s admiration and worship.At this time in Tokyo, Japan, Masao, who had fully restored his health, was currently experiencing the beauty of youth with excitement!His physical condition was so good that he could not wait to find two young girls to quickly experience the rejuvenation that he had already lost for a long time.On the way out of the airport, Masao wanted to dri
The Terminal Lucidity Pill finally exerted its ultimate medicinal effect and killed Masao!Masao did not even know that he was dying and that the medicine that he had taken was actually poison!Jiro hurriedly pushed the car door open at this time as he yelled at the other family members who were about to board the other vehicles and said, “Dad has been poisoned! The magic medicine that my brother brought back is poisonous!”When everyone heard his words, they felt as though they had just been struck by lightning!A large group of people swarmed towards his Bentley and the family doctor also hurried over to check at this time.It did not matter how you look at it because the old man was obviously dead!At this time, Masao’s expression was extremely distorted and terrifying! His complexion was black and his eyes were bloodshot with blood oozing out of them. His mouth was wide open and he died an extremely miserable death!The family doctor stepped forward to check on Masao and he
Ichiro was utterly shocked when he heard his assistant’s words!His father was dead? He died after taking the magic medicine that he sent to him?This…how could this be possible?Could it be that the magic medicine was poison itself?As he thought about it, Ichiro was really very angry and frightened. He wished that he could confront Charlie in person!Charlie actually dared to cheat his family out of ten billion dollars and poison his old man to death? Wasn’t he a little too cruel?However, Ichiro knew that he would never be able to defeat Charlie. So, what was the use of confronting him? His father was already dead and it would be completely impossible for him to resurrect him and bring him back to life. Ichiro also knew that it would be impossible for Charlie to return the ten billion dollars to him…At this time, Ichiro’s assistant hurriedly said, “Mr. Wade, you should find a place to hide in Aurous Hill! Do not show your face for the time being. I am guessing that there wil
At this time, Ichiro said angrily, “My father suddenly died after taking your medicine. Do you really dare to say that it’s not because of the medicine?”Charlie shrugged before he said, “Weren’t you the one who robbed and took the medicine on your own? Do you even remember the whole process of this matter? You were the one who robbed and stole the medicine for yourself. Listen carefully, you were the one who stole the medicine in the first place! Do you understand me? I did not actually give you the medicine.”After that, Charlie said once again, “You were the one who stole the poison all by yourself and you were the one who sent someone to deliver the poison to your father. After that, your father died after taking the poison that you delivered to him. This is all your own doing. So, what has it got to do with me? Was I the one who asked you to steal the poison from Dr. Simmons?”Ichiro was left completely speechless at this time.Charlie was right. From the very beginning, he wa
Ichiro did not know what Charlie was planning when he took him in. He did not even know that Charlie was planning to sell him to his brother.Charlie did not have any sympathy for Ichiro at all. On the contrary, Charlie hated Ichiro from the depths of his heart.Fortunately, he had been on guard. Otherwise, things would be terrible if Anthony’s magical pills had been stolen and taken away by Ichiro.Even though Charlie was not sure whether the Japanese would be able to analyze his own prescription, he thought that it would definitely breed chaos if they succeeded in figuring out his prescription.Therefore, in Charlie’s opinion, the Japanese should be blamed for their own actions!Whether it was the six men dressed in black, Masao in Tokyo, or Ichiro who was about to die, all of them could only blame themselves for their deaths!Isaac drove Charlie home before dawn.This time, Isaac had a brand new understanding of Charlie’s strength.He had originally thought that Charlie was
With those words, Jacob didn't wait any further as he turned and left Antique Street, intent on seeking legal counsel.Raymond watched him leave before returning to Treasure Measure.He wasn't going to leave, but he had said so because he didn't want to waste much time with Jacob.Still, to avoid any trouble, he turned the sign outside to 'closed' before locking the door from the inside.That was when a man suddenly arrived, asking through the glass door, "Can I still take a look inside, sir?"Raymond was ready to refuse without even turning around when he realized that it was Charlie.He turned around and saw him standing outside just as expected.Smiling, he hurried over to open the door for him. "It's been a while, Mr. Wade!"Charlie was aware that Raymond was sticking to his identity of 'Raymond Cole' who had not been in touch since Raymond had been fired from Vintage Deluxe.Charlie chuckled in turn. "It has indeed. And you're a business owner yourself now, too.""It's j
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
