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
Charlie nodded.Kenneth’s situation was very clear to him. He had directly destroyed his nerves with infuriating energy. In other words, he would never be able to regain and restore his manhood in this lifetime. Anthony did not give him the magical pills, but even if Anthony had given him the pills, it would be completely useless.If Kenneth insisted on taking any medicine indiscriminately to try and restore his own manhood, it would only allow the medicine to continue accumulating in the nerves, which would ultimately lead to tissue necrosis.It seemed as though the Weaver family was really in deep trouble this time. Kenneth was not only a difficult person, but he was also an evil person. He would never give up until he had completely destroyed the Weaver family.At this time, Isaac said, “The second young lord of the Webb family is now locked up at Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital. It is said that he had come down with a very strange disease. He has to eat sh*t every hour and if
Claire woke up at around seven in the morning.As soon as Charlie heard some movements, he hurriedly pretended to be asleep as he laid motionlessly on the floor.After getting up, Claire stretched as she got out of bed quietly. When she looked at Charlie, who was sleeping on the floor at this time, Claire could not help but feel a little distressed.Ever since Charlie married her and became the son-in-law of the Wilson family, he had been sleeping on the floor for more than three years.When they first got married, Claire really did not care much about Charlie and she did not have any feelings for him.However, after spending so many years with him, Claire did not know why she felt particularly safe with Charlie by her side.Sometimes, Claire was even afraid that Charlie would suddenly leave her.In this recent period of time, so much had happened at home and it made Claire even more certain that Charlie was actually the only person she could actually rely on the most in this wo
At half past seven in the morning, Charlie pretended that he had just woken up. After washing up, he went out to buy something before he came home.Claire hurriedly headed to her office after eating breakfast. After that, Elaine put down the dishes before she dragged her husband, Jacob, out to visit the villa at Thompson First with her. She was already starting to lose her patience since it was taking such a long time for the renovations at the villa to be completed.Jacob was very unwilling to go and he tried to persuade her, “There are several floors in the villa and it adds up to more than a thousand square meters. The renovation and decorating job for the villa must be really very laborious. It should probably take more than half a year for them to be done with the renovation works. It’s useless even if you are anxious.”Elaine replied in a dissatisfied manner, “I don’t care! I have already lived in this broken house for long enough. If the renovations aren’t completed by next m
At this time, Jeffrey and Liam were stopped by the staff of Serene World Clinic.“Excuse me, did you make an appointment for your visit today?”The guy asked as he looked at Jeffrey very vigilantly.He had never seen Jeffrey before and there had been too many messy and inappropriate people coming to Serene World Clinic to look for Anthony in the past two days. Therefore, the young man did not dare to let anyone in so casually.Jeffrey hurriedly replied, “Hello, young brother. I am Jeffrey, the young lord of the Weaver family. Please inform the genius doctor, Dr. Simmons, that I admit I must have offended him at the Chinese Medical Expo the other day. The reason I’m here today is to apologize to Dr. Simmons and I really hope that he’ll be able to give me an opportunity to apologize to him in person.”The young man replied coldly, “Dr. Simmons has said he won’t be seeing anyone who does not have an appointment with him! So, please leave immediately!”“You should at least be speakin
After he was done speaking, Anthony turned around as he was ready to chase them away.Jeffrey panicked and started begging, “I’m really sorry for what I did, Dr. Simmons. I know that it was my mistake. It’s my fault. I have no complaints at all if you want to hit or scold me. It’s just that the Weaver family has encountered a huge crisis this time. Could you really bear to see the Weaver family completely destroyed just like that?”Anthony replied coldly, “Sorry, but I’m not that familiar with you at all. Moreover, your family has nothing to do with me. Please leave immediately.”As soon as he heard Anthony’s words, Jeffrey hurriedly snatched the brocade box from Liam before he handed it over to Anthony and said respectfully, “Dr. Simmons, this is just a token of my appreciation. It is a piece of Hetian jade worth more than five million dollars! Please accept it!”Anthony did not even look at the so-called Hetian jade before he said unceremoniously, “Don’t tell me how it’s worth fi
When Jacob came to his senses, he was already in tears. The student presumed he was unwell and asked, "Mr. Wilson, do you want me to call your wife to pick you up?" Elaine's sarcastic face immediately popped up in his mind, and he trembled with fear. He quickly wiped away his tears and stammered, "D-don't bother... I... I just got something in my eyes..." The student obviously didn't believe him and asked worriedly, "Why don't you call your wife? Or I'll call a cab for you." "No, no." Jacob waved his hand and said, "I'll call my son-in-law to pick me up. He has just returned to Aurous Hill, so it shouldn't be a problem." After that, he quickly took out his phone and called Charlie. Just a few minutes ago, Charlie had left the cafe and was about to walk Yolden to his car. When he saw Yolden walking straight toward a domestic new energy vehicle, he asked curiously, "I don't think you were driving this model before, were you?" "I just bought it," Yolden replied with a smil
If Matilda still had feelings for Jacob, his nostalgic strategy would definitely have a strong impact. However, Matilda had already decided to move on, so Jacob's suggestion did not stir any emotions in her at all. With an apologetic smile, she said, "Sorry, Jacob, Yolden is downstairs waiting for me. We have something to discuss. How about another day? We can have dinner together, and I'll treat you." Jacob didn't expect the nostalgia strategy to fall flat. His original plan was to use nostalgia to get Matilda to go with him to eat near the school, then take the opportunity to revisit old places and subtly reignite their past memories. After all, revisiting old places was the best way to rekindle old feelings, no exceptions. It was like drinking the pasta water after cooking the pasta. However, he never imagined that Matilda's expression wouldn't change in the slightest. There was no shyness, no hesitation, no nervousness, and certainly no fluttering heart. She simply and
Matilda had been listening attentively before, but now, she was lowering her head, fiddling with her phone, and her expression even carried a hint of shyness and happiness, like that of a young girl. Jacob felt a pang of jealousy. While doing the presentation, he couldn't help but resentfully think to himself, "What has Matilda been chatting about with that Yolden guy? She's so happy..." At that moment, Matilda had just received a message from Yolden. In the message, Yolden informed her of the outcome of his conversation with Charlie and expressed his desire to have the wedding as soon as possible. Seeing how eager her beloved was to marry her, Matilda naturally felt very touched. At that moment, she had completely fallen into Yolden's love. For this man, who had a similar background, education, values, and even lifestyle to her own, she could find no fault with him. She felt that he was perfectly tailor-made for her by heaven itself, almost as if everything about him perfectly m
Charlie's worries were not unfounded. He had long known that Jacob had not completely given up on Matilda despite her relationship with Yolden. After returning from the cultural exchange in Korea, Jacob had been more dejected than ever before—something he hadn't even displayed when his family had gone bankrupt. If there was still a chance to salvage the relationship when one's beloved was merely dating someone else, their marriage was tantamount to a death sentence. Furthermore, considering the high intellectual backgrounds of Matilda and Yolden as well as their age and life experience, their decision to marry at this stage of life undoubtedly signaled their intention to build a long-term future together. This left Jacob with absolutely no chance at all. At this moment, Jacob was blissfully unaware of the devastating news and was busy conducting a calligraphy and painting workshop at Senior University. The so-called workshop was essentially a few slides showcasing classic
After that, Charlie asked with a bit of curiosity, "When did you and Matilda decide to get married?" Yolden smiled sheepishly and explained, "Remember when the city organized our cultural exchange trip to South Korea? I confessed to Matilda during that trip, and she accepted. After spending some time together, we both felt we were a great match. Considering our age, we didn't want to delay such an important decision any longer, so we decided to take the next step and build a family together." He continued, "Last month, we went to Lambonear for a few days. I bought a ring and proposed to her by the seaside, and she said yes. We also sought the opinion of our respective children—Autumn and Paul—and they were both very supportive. Both kids are exceptional and independent, so they urged us to have the wedding as soon as possible. I wanted to wait until you returned so I could check your schedule. For our wedding, we'd like to ask you to be our officiant." "What? Me as the officiant?
Charlie said without hesitation, "Sure. When is it convenient for you? Send me the address, and I'll go meet you." Charlie had always respected Yolden not only because he was a nice and talented man but also because he and his mother went way back and went to the same school. Yolden said hastily, "I've just come from Senior University. It's the weekend, and I don't have classes today. Why don't you send me the address and I'll meet you?" Charlie gave it some thought. It was a little past 3 p.m., so Yolden had likely already had lunch, and there were still a few hours until dinner. Inviting him to The Heaven Springs didn't seem ideal for a discussion. Considering that he had lived in the United States for many years and probably had a habit of having coffee in the afternoon, Charlie said, "How about this? There's a Starbucks not far south of the university. Let's meet there for a cup of coffee." "Perfect!" Yolden said with a smile. "I was just thinking you could give me an addre
On the way back to The Heaven Springs, Julien was in a much better mood than when he had arrived. Initially, he was filled with anxiety, unsure of what Charlie had planned. But now, everything had become clear. The troublesome matter of Salem and Edmund was no longer his concern. All he had to do was wait for the video from the ship to be released and then head back home. Charlie noticed his improved mood and smiled as he asked, "Julien, you've resolved the most critical matter right after landing in Aurous Hill. You must be feeling pretty happy, right?" Julien chuckled and said, "To be honest, before coming here, I was worried that I'd end up going back empty-handed and being secretly mocked by others. But now, it's different. Once your video is released, no one can blame me for not doing my job. If anything, they can only blame their family for missing their chance. After all, so much time has passed, and it's their fault Salem and Edmund were moved to the Middle East." As he
"Good." With a light nod, Charlie turned to Jiro and spoke up, "Jiro, I'll give you a chance to prove yourself." "Okay, Mr. Wade!" Jiro beamed excitedly. "Please tell me what to do! I promise I will do my best to serve you." Charlie smiled and said, "Once the ship is ready, you'll board it together with them. Your only task is to keep a close watch on them the entire time. Don't let them pull any tricks. If you succeed, you'll be a free man here. You'll get a basic monthly salary and can ask for anything you like within reason—so long as it's not contraband, it will be yours." Hearing this, Jiro was so thrilled that he trembled all over. His current treatment was already decent, but he was still only a semi-free man. He didn't dare casually set foot on the ground outside. If he could become a truly free man, he would be able to enjoy the sunlight outdoors freely. More importantly, from then on, he would have a salary. Although he couldn't personally go out shopping, having a sa
Julien had uncovered Charlie's true identity quite some time ago and investigated Charlie's background. He was well aware that Charlie had become the head of the Wade family and that the Acker family fully supported him. Although the outside world believed that Ten Thousand Armies had subdued the Wade family, Julien had witnessed Charlie's methods firsthand. Even the top two figures of the Rothschild family had been toyed with by Charlie, so how could Ten Thousand Armies possibly make him surrender? Thus, Julien deduced that Ten Thousand Armies was undoubtedly Charlie's covert tool. Considering the combined strength of the Wade family, the Acker family, and Charlie's personally cultivated forces, it was evident that Charlie even had the power to contend with the entire Rothschild family. Moreover, with the life-extending pill in his possession and the life of the Rothschild family head in his hands, Charlie's chances of prevailing in a confrontation against the Rothschilds were e
