Chapter 4862

Author: Lord Leaf
“Okay.” Christian agreed and asked Merlin, “If she is in New York and asks me if I have any news about you, should I tell her the truth or lie to her first and wait for you to surprise her in person?”

Merlin thought for a moment and said, “If she asks you, tell her that you have found some clues, but you want to tell her in person. Ask her to meet up with you, and I will surprise her in person then.”

“Okay.” Christian nodded and then took out his cell phone immediately, making a call to Merlin’s wife, Josie Clinton.

When the call was connected, an excited voice came from the other end of the line, “Christian, do you have any news about Merlin?”

Christian was slightly startled, and he deliberately said, “Sister-in-Law, I have some clues here. Are you still in New York? I’ll come to talk to you in person.”

Josie, who was on the other end of the line, asked in a pleasantly surprised voice, “Really?! What kind of clues? I’m in Washington now, and I’m getting ready to go back to New Y

    This was especially so when his daughter was still pregnant at the moment.When Keith saw that Merlin was crying, he hurriedly said, “Merlin, there will be great blessings after a catastrophe. You should be happy, so why are you crying?!”Having said that, he quickly turned to Kathleen and said with great appreciation, “Miss Fox, I have to say that your solution just now is really perfect. Still, even though you have to write this cheque, the money still has to come from the Acker family. You have already helped us so much, so we cannot let you spend any more money.”Kathleen smiled slightly and said, “Okay, Lord Acker. I’ll do as you say.”Keith then said to Merlin, “Merlin, when the time comes, let Christian arrange for your wife and daughter to come here directly. It just so happens that Miss Fox is staying for lunch. Your family should be arriving after lunch, so your family of three can be reunited after the meal!”Merlin wiped away his tears and nodded heavily. Keith said

    After lunch, Merlin’s wife, daughter, and son-in-law finally landed at New York JFK Airport while the Ito family and Yashita were still flying over the ocean.The Acker family’s helicopter had been waiting at the airport for a long time. Under the Acker family’s coordination, the plane that was supposed to be parked on the corridor bridge was temporarily changed to a remote location. As soon as the three people got off the plane, they were taken away directly to the helicopter that was not far away by the Acker family’s staff who were waiting below.Merlin was so nervous in Ark Building that he kept pacing and rubbing his hands together.He had been repeatedly practicing the solution that Kathleen had given him out of fear that he would say the wrong thing when he met his family later.When Kathleen saw his nervousness, she said, “Chief Lammy, don’t worry too much. If you’re too nervous to express yourself well later, I can explain things to your wife for you then.”Christian also

    An angel investor meant merely investing while disregarding the operation.These people could do whatever they wanted as long as the money was in place. They had a lot of things going on at their end, so you could just inform them if you didn’t have enough money as long as you did not bother them.This was what Josie really could not accept and felt most desperate about.However, when she heard from Christian that Merlin’s disappearance for so many days was due to some unexpected events, she burst into tears immediately and could not help but say to Christian, “Christian, to tell you some heartfelt words, if I didn’t still have some feelings for that b*stard, Merlin, I would have already filed for a divorce to the court on the grounds of de facto separation! After all, it’s easy to get divorced in the United States. We’ve been separated for years, so it’d be easy for us to get divorced in any state!”Having said that, she took out her handkerchief, blew her nose, and said in despai

    Merlin did not expect that his wife, who had always been gentle, would react so fiercely. In the past, his wife would also have conflicts with him, but that was basically whining, sulking, and just a few days of cold war, at most.This was the first time she was yelling and scolding him so intensely. However, Merlin also knew that the reason why his wife had lost her composure was because she had been too worried about him during this period of time, so he naturally did not feel angry at all.Therefore, he could not wait to use Kathleen’s idea to explain himself. After making up his mind, he quickly explained, “Josie, I... I have a reason for that...”“Why? What’s the reason?” Josie asked angrily, “Don’t you think I understand you well enough yet, Merlin? Everything else is more important to you compared to me and your daughter! Your mind will be occupied whenever someone dies in New York, but when are you ever concerned about us?”Merlin was a little speechless.He was alre

    Kathleen said indifferently, “Ten million US dollars may indeed be a lot to you, but to me, ten million US dollars is less than one percent of the compensation that I paid to those victims on behalf of the Fox family. This matter is very dangerous, and the slightest mistake could cost a person’s life.”Immediately afterward, she looked at Josie as well as Joy, who was behind Josie, and said seriously, “Actually, what I want to say is that you shouldn’t be complaining about how Chief Lammy didn’t inform you about this matter in advance. After all, the matter that I entrusted him to do was not only very complicated, but it was also very dangerous and he might have even lost his life if he was not careful.”“What’s more, Chief Lammy has already retired and intended to go back to take care of his own life, and there was no need for him to take this risk at all. However, he became very excited because of the ten million US dollars commission, and he didn’t accept the task because he wante

    The family problems that Merlin had been worried about were finally successfully resolved with Kathleen’s help. Merlin’s sense of ‘family responsibility’ and ‘dedication’ not only made his wife and daughter forget about his disappearance during this period of time, but it also changed their image of him being an incompetent man, in their opinion.It could be said that Merlin’s image was suddenly pushed to an unprecedented height to his wife and daughter. Merlin’s wife and daughter gathered around him, and their eyes were flushed red from crying. Merlin was excited but also ashamed, and at the same time, he looked at Kathleen with slight gratitude that could not be concealed.Lord Acker admired Kathleen even more, and he took advantage of other people’s attention on Merlin’s family and called Christian and Kaeden aside as he whispered, “Miss Fox will be able to achieve great things in the future. The Acker family must strengthen our collaboration with her and build bridges with he

    Charlie came to the top floor to greet her. He soon saw the helicopter door open followed by Nanako coming down from the helicopter dressed in a kimono, and he could not help but feel slightly taken aback.Although Nanako was indeed very beautiful in a kimono and had a very unique and gentle Japanese temperament, Charlie still could not figure out why Nanako would dress like this to come here. When Nanako saw Charlie, whom she had been longing for, in front of her, she was overjoyed and had a bright smile on her face as she said to Charlie, “Charlie-kun, I haven’t seen you in a long time!”Charlie smiled slightly, nodded, and said, “It has been a while indeed. Why are you dressed so grandly?”At this time, the Ito family’s butler and Nanako’s aunt also got off the helicopter and helped Yahiko, who was wearing his prostheses, out of the helicopter. Charlie looked even more surprised when he saw all these people dressed formally. Nanako stuck out her tongue and said playfully, “

    When Isaac heard Charlie’s instructions, he immediately said, “Okay, Young Master. I’ll go and make the arrangements now.”After saying that, he quickly turned around and left.Yahiko felt a little embarrassed and said, “Mr. Wade, you don’t have to do that. It’s not necessary to celebrate my birthday. You can just give your orders directly if you have anything you need.”Nanako, who was aside, also could not guess Charlie’s real purpose in asking them to come to New York, so she also said very sincerely, “Charlie-kun, you don’t need to be so polite with us if you need the Ito family to do something for you! The Ito family will definitely go all out no matter what your request is!”Charlie said with a smile, “If you really want me to say it, there is, in fact, something that I need the Ito family to do for me.”Having said that, Charlie paused slightly and said again, “I recently got my hands on a pill that is somewhat helpful to the disabled. That is why I want to ask Mr. Ito and

    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
