The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 4932
Kelsey, who had just beaten Elaine up, never would have dreamt that Jayne and the others who had just been released from prison not long ago would be sent back again!She was scared out of her wits at this moment!She had witnessed the strength of these three, and as long as they were here, absolutely no one in Bedford Hills Correctional Facility could go against them.Even if Mandy came back, she could never be their opponent...This also meant that she had made a blatant mistake with her act of hitting Elaine in order to seek vengeance for Mandy!Kelsey was extremely terrified, and she hurriedly fell to her knees and said with tears in her eyes, “Elaine, I’m sorry... Elaine, I really didn’t mean to... I didn’t do it on purpose... I must have been completely out of my mind...”Elaine hated this woman, and she said through clenched teeth, “How dare you say that you didn’t do it on purpose?! I’ve never met anyone as shameless as you in all my years of life!”With that said, Elain

Upon hearing this, Elaine nodded vigorously and blurted out, “Jayne, after you go back to the cell, you have to teach Chloe and Jacelyn a lesson on my behalf! These two b*stards turned on me immediately after you guys left at noon. You must not let them off!” Jayne solemnly promised, “Elaine, don’t worry. We will not let them have a good day as long as we are still here!”At this time, the prison guard who was aside said to Elaine, “Elaine, I think you should come to the infirmary with me first so that the doctor can check whether your injury is serious!”Elaine felt the pain in her right leg and could not help but choke up and say, “How can it not be serious? My leg seems to be broken again...”With that said, Elaine hurriedly asked her, “Can you send me to the hospital? By the way, can I have my cell phone back too? I want to call my son-in-law...”The prison guard spoke up, “Your son-in-law is already here, and he is waiting outside to pick you up from prison.”“Really?” Elai

Charlie was already unconcerned about Elaine’s sudden awakening at this moment.He simply thought that Claire would definitely feel distressed when she saw Elaine in this state if he were to bring Elaine back to Providence now.Moreover, Elaine’s leg was broken, and she had lost most of her ability to take care of herself. So, who would take care of her if he brought her back to Providence?Claire still had to attend classes, and it would be inconvenient for him to take care of Elaine herself. So, the best option would be to let Elaine stay in New York for treatment. However, there were still two problems. The first was how he could make Elaine willingly stay in New York, and the other was how he should explain things to his wife, Claire.Still, his priority at the moment was to send Elaine to the hospital for treatment first. Although she had this leg injury that could be fixed with just half a Healing Pill, Charlie still felt that it was somewhat wasteful for him to use the Hea

With that said, Elaine clicked on the order interface and exclaimed, “Oskian food, French food, Japanese food, Italian food... Wow, you have so many different menus here... Even ordinary hotels don’t have this many menu varieties, do they?” The female nurse nodded and said, “We have many Michelin-star restaurants that are collaborating with us. The restaurant will generally deliver your order within an hour after you choose your meal. So, you should place your order a little earlier to avoid waiting for too long.” Elaine quickly asked, “Why is there no price on this? I would not dare to place any order without a price. My family will go bankrupt if this meal costs thousands of US dollars...”The female nurse explained, “Madam Elaine, you’re currently in the top VIP ward in our hospital which is usually used internally by our chairman’s family members. So, you don’t need to pay for anything at all during your stay here.” “Wow, it’s all free?!” Elaine asked with surprise and joy,

When Claire heard that Elaine had been released from prison, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief and said excitedly, “Mom, where are you now? Has Charlie contacted you?”Elaine hurriedly said, “Charlie is right in front of me now. I was actually released from prison so quickly because Charlie was the one who found the connections to get me out earlier.”Claire was very happy and said quickly, “Mom, hurry up and come back with Charlie, then. You don’t know how worried I’ve been about you during this period of time!”Elaine pursed her lips and said embarrassedly, “Well... Claire... I... I don’t want to go to Providence. That place is really boring, so why don’t I stay in New York for a few more days instead? It just so happens that I met a friend in prison, and we were both released from prison on the same day. She invited me to stay in New York for a few days.”When Claire heard this, she refused almost without any hesitation whatsoever, “Mom, you shouldn’t trust outsiders anymo

Claire reminded him, “By the way, Honey, don’t forget to thank your client. He must have been worried and has been of great help to you over the past few days, right? Why don’t you treat him to dinner first tonight? You can drive back if there is enough time after you’re done with dinner, but if there’s not enough time, it’s okay for you to come back early in the morning tomorrow too. We can’t let others think that we’ve lost our manners.”Charlie did not intend to treat Jordan to dinner, but since Claire had said so, he planned to go and give some instructions to Albert and Isaac first. He wanted to let them stay at Shangri-La in New York for the time being.So, he said to Claire, “Honey, let me make some arrangements, and I’ll go back as soon as I’m done.”Charlie hung up the phone and said to Elaine, “Mom, you should rest here for a few days first. I’ll go and meet with my client, and I’ll go back to accompany Claire after that.”“Go, go!” Elaine said with a smile, “I’ll be well
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 4938
Twenty minutes later, Charlie arrived at Shangri-La first. When he had just arrived in the presidential suite, Albert quickly came to report, “Master Wade, Chief Lammy is here.”Charlie nodded. “Let him in.”Albert hurriedly ushered in Merlin, who was dressed in casual clothes.As soon as Merlin saw Charlie, he clasped one of his hands over the other respectfully and said, “Hello, Young Master Wade!” Charlie smiled slightly and then pointed at the sofa in front of him as he said, “Please have a seat, Chief Lammy. Didn’t I give you a week to be reunited with your family? Why are you planning to go to Syria so soon?”Merlin laughed at himself and sighed as he said, “My daughter and son-in-law are busy looking for cars and houses every day, so they don’t have much time for me. I don’t want to continue wasting time in Houston, so I plan to head to Syria first. I want to meet with the man that you caught last time and find out some details from him.”When Charlie saw that Merlin lo

Charlie once felt that the search for the specific address of 547’s lineage of dead soldiers might be as difficult as reaching for the sky.The reason for this was that the mysterious organization had extremely tight control over the dead soldiers, preventing them from perceiving the exact time, and also preventing them from feeling external light, temperature, sound, and the changing seasons outside the world. Therefore, 547 did not even know which one of the seven continents he lived in, let alone whether he was in the tropics or the cold zone. Even the only living person could not come up with any substantial clues, so it was even more impossible for outsiders to find this place. However, Merlin accurately found clues that the mysterious organization had no control over.Earthquakes, tsunamis, and typhoons were all powerful natural phenomena. Even if a strong bunker could isolate typhoons and tsunamis, no matter how strong the bunker was, it was simply impossible for it to i

Pausing, Julien then said, "I mostly drink wine and the occasional whiskey.""How much are those, usually?" Raymond asked.Julien thought about it. "If it's table wine, 10,000 to 50,000 USD. For bigger occasions, it'd be something over a hundred thousand."Raymond nodded and pointed at the bottle of Oskian vodka he had bought. "Guess how much that is?"Julein shook his head. "I don't usually drink Oskian alcohol, so I'm not too sure…""Come on," Charlie chuckled. "We're not asking if you know—we're just asking you to take a guess.""Then…" Julien quickly said. "I'm guessing, three thousand?""Three thousand?" Raymond chuckled and shook his head. "That's way too flattering. It's around 7 USD.""Seven bucks?!" Julien exclaimed, and he blurted, "You usually drink something that cheap, Mr. Cole?""Well, not stateside," Raymond smiled. "But I liked it after I ordered one from a diner yesterday. It's cheap, and it has quality."Julien gulped as he stared at his own cup filled to th

Julien flinched and promptly threw his hands up. "No, no, no… please don't say that, Mr. Wade! That's not what I mean—as a son, it's only right that I hope my father lives long and prospers. Why wouldn't I want him to?"Charlie pointed out, "Then why'd you say that I've screwed you over repeatedly?""Oh. I, uh…" Julien wasn't sure how to respond to that, and he groaned unhappily, "I was not being mindful with words. I take that back…" Charlie nodded. "Then, I'll give you another chance.""Huh?" Julien was left confused, and he quickly asked, "Another chance… for what?"Charlie clapped him on the shoulder again, smiling, "We're old friends, aren't we? Why would I screw you over? Anyway, your turn."Julien was left utterly aggrieved as he read through Charlie's intention—that was precisely the definition of screwing him over!If his father knew he had come to Aurous Hill to hang out with these two, especially Biden Cole, he would definitely be removed as heir! And yet, Charlie

Having seen a sliver of the common folk's plight, Julien turned back to the journey at hand.Soon, his MPV arrived at Aurous Hill's Antique Street.As it was closing hours, the place appeared bleak, almost as though it had been completely abandoned. It was only during opening hours and the few hours before closing that the place became most alive anyway.Most of the time, the vendors and employees outnumbered the guests, and during closing hours, it would get very quiet. One wouldn't even find strays here as there weren't scraps around.Still, Julien had no idea what the hell the place was, even as he arrived outside Treasure Measure following the location Charlie had sent.Once he was sure he was at the right place, he called Charlie, immediately sounding respectful and flattering, "I'm here, Mr. Wade. If you don't mind opening the door…""Alright, just hang on," Charlie said and put down the phone while turning to Raymond, who was putting the food on a folding table, "Our frien

The lawyer then finished, "To be honest, cases of regretting a donation and seeking a lawsuit to get the money back? Law firms usually won't even get one per year, and that makes it especially newsworthy for the press."Also, court records are always public. That means anyone can access the verdict, and there's no hiding anything. So, if you want the lawsuit, you'd better be prepared."Jacob was already left in despair.All he wanted was to get his money back, but he didn't think that it would end up as public knowledge.And Mr. Bay had just told him over the phone that he would try to quell the scandal's pressure and try his best to protect Jacob's place as vice president.If Jacob's name was suddenly mentioned in a lawsuit attempting to reclaim an 'accidental' donation, even Mr. Bay couldn't save him at that point.Hence, after thinking long and hard about it, Jacob realized that he was not getting his 300 thousand back.The thought crushed him, and he burst into tears, "What

At this hour, most of the employees at Talbot Associates had already left.However, there were several lawyers who had just finished a meeting regarding a certain case, and they were just leaving when Jacob arrived.Seeing that they were packing up their bags and ready to leave, he asked, "Excuse me, are you still able to take cases?"The leader smiled, "Yes, but it's a little late now. Why don't you come again tomorrow morning?"Jacob shook his head impatiently. "This is very urgent—please help me and hear me out, then see if it will work. 300 thousand banks on this, so I'll give you twenty percent whether or not I get it back!"300 thousand was really neither here nor there.However, if it were an easy civil case, that twenty percent commission would still mean sixty thousand.The lawyer thought about it. "Fine. Tell us what your problem is, and we will assess the situation first. If it's easy, we can give you a general strategy right now. But if it proves difficult, we'll hav

The cabbie nodded. "Well, Talbot Associates, it is! They're said to be number two."-While Jacob was heading off to consult a law firm, Charlie was calling Julien Rothschild over the phone.The manchild had just had room service and was lounging on the couch, fiddling with his phone.After visiting the kennels with Charlie, he had been idling his days away at the hotel, waiting for Salem and his son to post that video of them being out at sea.Once that was done, Julien would return to the States, once more the heir apparent of the Rothschilds. Still, it was boring to simply lounge around in the hotel, and he would really like to strengthen his ties with Charlie.However, he was also afraid of being too forward as Charlie could be intimidating, and he could upset him—just like a fan eager to get close to their idol but was still worried about their idol getting disgusted with them.As such, he never expected Charlie to call him, and he immediately answered eagerly, "Good even
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6548
Pausing, Mr. Bay continued, "If they're not that upset with the idea, I'll bang my gavel and make the call so that you can at least stay as a vice president."If they keep refusing, I just have to promote Mr. Zonda to become a vice president while you take over his position of head-of-department as insurance. What do you think?"Jacob certainly wouldn't protest the idea of insurance, especially when he thought he would be forced to leave the Calligraphy and Painting Association altogether earlier. He quickly exclaimed gratefully, "Thank you so much, Mr. Bay!"Mr. Bay chuckled, clearly relieved as well. "Come on, Jacob—you don't have to be so formal. I'm like a brother to you! Don't you think that's what I should be doing?"Jacob laughed earnestly for once. "Well, brother, I'm honestly relieved…" He trailed off but soon pressed on, "But I have to ask, won't the other members have things to say even if you manage to persuade the other vice presidents? What if they remain unhappy?

There were times when making a person despair to some extent could be a people-strategy.For example, when your distant acquaintance asked for a ten grand loan but you could only lend him one, you couldn't tell him directly that. It would make them think you were being insincere.The better option would be to tell them how you were worse off than they were and had a debt yourself, or that some other friend had borrowed money for three years and never repaid it.And when that mere acquaintance was in despair, you could tell them that if it was really important, you could lend them one thousand with a credit card loan.That way, while the mere acquaintance wouldn't exactly be awash with gratitude, they at least wouldn't complain about your lack of sincerity.That was exactly what Mr. Bay was doing.He had no intention of offending Jacob, but he also couldn't directly tell him to give up on claiming the position as president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association. Otherwise, Ja

Jacob felt absolutely horrible just then, and he certainly did not expect Don Albert to give him the cold shoulder.If he had known, he would have just stayed content with the 200 thousand he had made and enjoyed his trip to Dubai! If he had, the Calligraphy and Painting Association wouldn't have found out about the bronze sculpture plot, and Don Albert would still be on friendly terms with him.Absolutely regretting everything, Jacob got in the backseat of the cab, tears of grief almost welling up and out of his eyes.Then, noticing that the cabbie was quietly watching him from the rearview mirror, he turned his face aside, whipped out his phone, and called Mr. Bay.As soon as Mr. Bay answered, he asked, "How did things go over there? Have you sorted out Zachary Evans yet?"He was waiting for Jacob to ask Don Albert for help so that the latter would pressure Zachary into posting a statement retracting his previous claims.However, Jacob knew full well that there was no hope for
