Chapter 4851

Author: Lord Leaf
At this moment, the expressions on Kaeden, Christian, and Keith’s faces changed drastically!

Kaeden blurted out, “You met Adrienne the second year after Ashley passed away... Adrienne has been staying hidden by your side for nineteen years until this accident... This group of people who wants to kill us should be inseparable from the person who killed Ashley back then!”

Keith said in amazement, “In that case, they were not satisfied with simply killing Ashley and Curtis, and they have carefully planted a time bomb next to Jaxson to be detonated after nineteen years. What exactly are these people planning to do?! Why did they wait so long if they wanted to take out the entire Acker family?”

“That’s right...” Christian was also puzzled and said, “They are so strong and powerful, so there is no need for them to wait until today to attack us if they truly have any deep hatred against us...”

Keith said, “What I really don’t understand is how much hatred and grudge these people have aga

    Lord Acker’s sudden roar caused the expression on the three brothers’ faces to darken.Although everyone had gradually arrived at this conclusion, everyone still felt a chill run down their backs when the old man said it out loud.Kaeden said with a puzzled expression, “I don’t understand... What kind of hatred or grudge do these people have against us? Why do they have to keep watch over us for twenty years?”Jaxson was puzzled as he said, “The Acker family did not do anything to harm anyone over the years in our accumulation of assets! Over the years, most of our assets come from the Angel investment back then, especially from my sister, who basically supported half of Silicon Valley on her own. Who would have this kind of blood feud with us?”Christian said with a cold expression, “Perhaps they want to get something from us.”Jaxson asked him, “Christian, what do you mean? Could it be that they want our money?”“I can’t tell.” Christian said, “I just think that the other party

    Christian hurriedly used his cell phone to search for some photos of Kathleen from the internet and handed it over to Lord Acker. After looking at it several times, Lord Acker returned the cell phone to Christian, but he was suddenly startled as a figure flashed through his mind, and he could not help but ask, “By the way, Christian, was Miss Fox the one who took Merlin away?”Christian asked in surprise, “Dad, do you remember Merlin?”Lord Acker said in a daze, “An image just flashed through my mind just now as if I remembered that our benefactor said that Merlin was dead...”Having said that, he hurriedly asked, “Christian, did our benefactor say that he would get someone to take Merlin’s body away for a proper burial?”Christian was shocked that his father could still remember some fragments of that day and mourned, “Our benefactor did say that at the time. I reckon he must have left this matter to Miss Fox.”Lord Acker’s eyes turned red, and he said with a little self-reproa

    Kathleen did not expect the old man to remember her, so she quickly said respectfully, “Lord Acker, how are you doing lately?”Lord Acker nodded and said to Kathleen, “I’ve been fine lately thanks to you, Miss Fox.”Kathleen hurriedly said, “Please don’t say that, Lord Acker! How can I afford it when I’m your junior!”Christian, who was aside, also nodded politely at Kathleen and said, “Hello, Miss Fox!”Kathleen responded respectfully in turn, “Hello, Mr. Christian!”Christian asked with concern, “Miss Fox, I would like to ask, where is my good buddy, Merlin, buried now? Please give me the address if it’s convenient. I’d like to go and pay my respect to him.”Before Kathleen could speak up, Merlin, who was wearing a mask and a pair of sunglasses, suddenly said, “Christian, your good buddy is not dead yet!” When Merlin said this, Christian and Keith who were beside him were dumbfounded!Both of them could hear and tell that it was Merlin’s voice. However, neither one of them

    Keith and Christian quickly invited them into Ark Building. They then took the elevator from the roof to the top floor. Once they got out of the elevator, Keith brought Merlin into the conference room directly. All the Acker family members, both young and old, were waiting in the conference room. According to Lord Acker’s intention, they were planning to thank Kathleen in person.Keith pushed the conference room door open, and all the Acker family members stood up one after the other. However, what they did not expect was that it would be Merlin, who had a close friendship with the Acker family, instead of Kathleen who would come in behind him!The moment they saw Merlin, the Acker family members were instantly shocked.Everyone could not believe their eyes. This was because they firmly believed that Merlin was dead since he had been implicated by the Acker family.Therefore, now that Merlin was suddenly appearing in front of them, the Acker family members seemed to have lost t

    When Kathleen heard that Lady Acker wanted to see Charlie, she hurriedly said, “I’m sorry, Lady Acker. Your benefactor’s whereabouts are uncertain. He simply gave me the pill this time and left after telling me he had a lot of other important things to do.”Strictly speaking, Kathleen was not lying.This was because Charlie’s whereabouts were indeed uncertain, especially during this recent period of time when he had traveled from Canada to the United States, Hong Kong, and then to Mexico. Kathleen also did not know his specific plan.Moreover, it was indeed true that Charlie had left the Fox family’s freezing center. He had rushed back to Shangri-La to prepare for the arrival of the Ito family and Yashita.When Lady Acker heard Kathleen saying that their benefactor had already left, she was very disappointed and said, “Our benefactor saved our family that day, and he has saved Merlin now. We can never repay him for his great kindness even in a few lifetimes, yet he is not even gi

    If he wanted to save Merlin, he would inevitably expose some clues in front of his grandparents’ family, and it was his own choice to save Merlin from the beginning. Now, he had actually obtained the core medicinal herb to refine the Regenerating Pill in Mexico by chance, so naturally, Charlie had decided to save Merlin too.As for the clues that had been exposed, Charlie did not care too much about that.After all, they were his grandparents, not his enemies. What’s more, the clues that were exposed so far would only allow them to get one more piece of the puzzle, and at present, they were still far from finding out the truth if they wanted to find out his identity. Christian’s speculation resonated with the entire Acker family. Kaeden could not hide his excitement and said, “Christian, if that’s the case, it seems as though our benefactor has a lot of connections with us! Our benefactor should also know of how you were kicked out of the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill in Auro

    The Acker family knew that Lord Acker actually also wanted to know who this benefactor with such great strength really was.Nevertheless, since he had already said so, they naturally did not dare to overstep their bounds.Therefore, Christian took the lead and said, “Don’t worry, Dad. We will definitely keep your request in mind, and we will never cross this line.”Kaeden also nodded and said, “Dad, Christian is right. We will definitely never cross this line.”Merlin, who was aside, could not help but feel a little disappointed.He had promised Charlie that he would never reveal Charlie’s identity.However, he hoped that the Acker family would be able to acknowledge and get reacquainted with Charlie as soon as possible from the bottom of his heart. That was the reason why he had taken the initiative to mention the Rejuvenating Pill in front of Christian earlier, all to remind the latter that these clues should be connected and considered so that he could surely find out some i

    Merlin said awkwardly, “Aunt, to be honest, I haven’t figured out how I’m going to go back and explain to my wife and daughter why I ended up disappearing after my daughter sent me a text message to tell me that she was pregnant...”Having said that, he also wanted to distract Lady Acker’s attention, so he asked Christian, “Christian, my wife should have looked for you, right? What did you tell her?”Christian sneered twice and said, “What else could I say? I could only tell her that I was not sure either. Our benefactor specially instructed me not to tell your wife that you were dead but to tell her that you were missing or had eloped with another woman, but how could I have said that to her?”Merlin sighed and said, “I’ll also have to think about how I’m going to explain things to them when I go back. The two of them will probably always have some doubts if there is no relatively perfect explanation for this matter...”Christian thought for a moment and said, “Perhaps you can say

    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

    At this point, Don Albert could very well be Jacob's personal messiah.Even if he did threaten Zachary with calling Charlie persistently, he actually wouldn't dare call Charlie.After all, how would he start explaining that he was involved in a crime? And telling Charlie was basically telling his daughter—what would they think of him after this? Would he ever be able to hold his head high in the family again?As such, his only option now was to ask Don Albert and see if he would help.What he didn't know was that Don Albert was with Charlie, who had already anticipated Jacob's move.When Jacob realized he couldn't stop Zachary, Jacob would find someone who could, and Don Albert was the best man for the job!To no surprise, Don Albert's phone soon started ringing with a call from Jacob.Don Albert didn't answer right away, however, instead turning toward Charlie as he asked gingerly, "So, shall I stick to your script, Master Wade?"Seeing Charlie nod, he pressed on, "Should I

    As soon as Jacob sent the voice message, Mr. Bay called.Jacob quickly answered, asking nervously, "How are things over there, Mr. Bay?""How, you ask…?" Mr. Bay sighed in exasperation. "The entire Calligraphy and Painting Association was demanding your dismissal as soon as Zachary Evans posted his statement, thinking that you have no business being the administrative vice president let alone have a place in the association."Even those officials came asking me questions, and you know how they are—gossipers, every last one of them, always finding out about the juicy stuff instantly even if it's really no big deal. The only excuse I have to stop them is that we don't have the facts, but this issue still needs to be taken care of."So, be straight with me. Were you a part of this? If you don't, do you have any definitive evidence that can refute Zachary's claims?""I… Uh…" Jacob stammered, unable to answer.He certainly wanted to say no, but he had no evidence to back himself up.

    Jacob bellowed furiously, "Raymond Cole made over 19 million dollars! From my bronze sculpture! Yet you're telling me to refund that 300 thousand too?! You're just fucking with me, aren't you?!""Well, if you don't like it, just do what you like, then," Zachary replied calmly and quickly hung up before Jacob could answer.Jacob was left twitching and shaking endlessly, and there was no telling if it was from rage or fear.Beside him, Elaine quickly asked, "What did Zachary say, dear? Can he get that bronze sculpture back?"Caught by surprise at her question, Jacob flinched, and his phone slipped out of his grasp.As it seemed to hover in the air, he tried to catch it twice but failed, but Elaine managed to grab it.It was then that she noticed that he was sweating all over his face, and she promptly asked, "What's wrong, dear?"Coming to his senses, Jacob's eyes went wide with rage. "Zachary is trying to kill me! He leaked the whole thing to his Twitter page—it's like he's pulli
