Chapter 5117

Author: Lord Leaf
Kathleen and Claire chatted for a long time in the executive lounge.

During this period, Kathleen modified her story slightly, which made everything seem incomparably natural and smooth to Claire.

According to Kathleen, she and her grandfather went to Aurous Hill at the beginning because her father’s physical condition was deteriorating. Someone introduced the genius doctor, Anthony Simmons, to her grandfather, so they flew to Aurous Hill immediately.

After arriving in Aurous Hill, Kathleen used the alias, Kylie Jane, to keep a low profile. She had already chosen this identity when she entered Oskia, so this also made Claire realize that Kathleen did not come up with a fake name just to deceive her.

Kathleen then told Claire that she and her grandfather found Anthony to treat her grandfather after arriving in Aurous Hill, and he really managed to cure her grandfather’s illness. But at that time, her eldest uncle took advantage of her grandfather’s absence in the United Stat

    Charlie laughed and said modestly, “In fact, it’s mainly because she was born with such a foundation. You should know that Miss Fox is a member of the Fox family, and she was born into such a wealthy family, so she was destined to have a fate that’s one in hundreds of millions. Besides, she also has the support of her grandfather, so basically everything has already been set up for her, and the only thing left was her Feng Shui.” Claire said very seriously, “That’s already very powerful! I used to think that someone would come and ask you for an explanation one day if you always go out to read Feng Shui for others, but it seems that you really have great ability, Honey! It’s no wonder why people call you Master Wade! It’s because you’re a real master!” With a smile, Charlie rubbed his nose and said, “Honey, I’ll get a big head if you praise me too much.” Claire smiled. “Master Wade, you can be proud confidently!” … After a few hours, a Gulfstream aircraft landed at an airport

    The next day, Charlie and Claire packed their luggage, checked out of the hotel, and left Providence, where they had been living for more than a month.The two drove directly to the airport in New York. Just as they were checking the car out at the airport, Charlie received a call from Elaine.Elaine asked him over the phone, “My dear son-in-law, I’m already at the airport. Where are you?”Charlie asked her, “Mom, are you in the VIP building?”“Yes.” Elaine said, “The director of the hospital, Director Camior, sent me here personally.”“Okay.” Charlie responded and said, “Wait for us in the lobby of the VIP building. We’ll be right there.” After hanging up the phone, Charlie also completed the procedures for returning the car and then turned around as he said to Claire, who was waiting, “Let’s go to the VIP building directly. Mom has already arrived.”Claire did not know that her mother had broken her leg again this time and could not help but tease, “My mother is really amazin

    At this time, a woman who was about the same age as Elaine and looked like an intellectual then came forward and said to Claire with an apologetic expression, “You must be Claire, right?”Charlie had seen this woman before. She was the director of the Fox family’s hospital who was specially in charge of Elaine. It seemed that she had come over today to help Elaine cover up her lies in front of Claire. When Claire saw her, she nodded in a daze and asked in surprise, “Who are you?”The woman hurriedly said, “I’m your mother’s friend. She has been staying with me in New York these past few days. I’m really sorry, it’s all my fault. I failed to take good care of your mother, so she accidentally fell and broke her leg. Please don’t hold it against me...”When Claire heard this, she quickly said, “Aunt, please don’t say that. My mother’s leg can also be considered an old problem. It has already been broken a few times before, so she might be a little vulnerable to injury. Therefore, I c

    The news of the Fox family was very sensational at the beginning, and Elaine was also aware of it.When she saw Kathleen on television for the first time in her capacity as the head of the Fox family to solve the Fox family’s huge crisis, she actually felt very emotional as she thought to herself back then, ‘We are both women, but she is actually in charge of a super financial empire worth trillions of US dollars when she’s only in her twenties. I have lived for fifty years but I don’t even have five hundred thousand dollars in my bank account. God is really unfair!’Elaine had a vivid memory of Kathleen, so she was incredibly excited when she saw Kathleen in person at this moment.However, what Elaine did not know was that Kathleen was actually the one who had given Jacob the Rolls-Royce Cullinan back in Aurous Hill.Kathleen then spoke up and said very politely to Elaine, “Hello, Aunt.”Elaine said excitedly, “Miss Fox, you... you know my daughter and son-in-law?”Kathleen smil

    In truth, Kathleen, who was aside, originally felt that it did not matter, but when she saw that Claire seemed to be stopping it on purpose, she also smiled and said, “Aunt Elaine, I’m afraid it won’t look good if we take a photo together in this public place. Why don’t we take a picture together again when we have the opportunity to meet in private in the future?”When Elaine heard this, her originally disappointed mood instantly improved. She thought to herself, ‘My dear son-in-law is really capable, and even Miss Fox is his client. So, it’s inevitable that he will meet up with her again in the future. In that case, it will really be awesome if I can take a picture with Miss Fox at a private gathering when the time comes.’So, she agreed without hesitation and then said with a smile, “Miss Fox, you have to come to Aurous Hill to spend some time when you can. You should come to our house as a guest at that time!”Kathleen nodded and said with a smile, “No problem, Aunt Elaine! I wi

    Claudia nodded gently and said seriously, “Okay, Charlie. Thank you, Charlie...”Stephanie, who was aside, also smiled and said, “Charlie, don’t forget that Claudia’s mother is also from Aurous Hill. Speaking of which, Aurous Hill is also Claudia’s natal home.”Charlie smiled and said, “Is that so? Do you have any relatives in Aurous Hill?”“Not anymore.” Claudia shook her head and said, “Both my grandparents have passed away, and I have an uncle who is abroad. I’ve not had much contact with him, so I basically do not have any relatives left. I can’t even pronounce the names of some of my distant relatives whom I haven’t met before.”Charlie smiled and said, “It’s okay, you still have Mrs. Lewis, Stephanie, and me. We are all your relatives.”Claudia was moved and nodded heavily. At this time, Charlie introduced to Mrs. Lewis, “By the way, Mrs. Lewis, let me introduce my mother-in-law to you.”With that said, he gestured toward Elaine as he said to Elaine, “Mom, this is Mrs. Le

    Secondly, he felt emotional at the great turnaround in his life.Ever since he was reduced to trash that was trampled on by everyone at Lady Wilson’s birthday banquet, his life had really bottomed out before he could finally soar to the sky. At this moment, the captain walked into the cabin from the cockpit and said very politely, “Distinguished guests, I’m the captain of this flight. I’m very happy to serve you today. We have about eleven hours of flight, and we can take off if you’re ready.”Elaine subconsciously took out her cell phone. She wanted to ask the captain to start all over from the beginning, but she had no choice but to give up when she thought of how there were still many other people around. However, she still wanted to show off a little, so she said to Claire, “Claire, call your father and tell him to hurry up and get ready. Ask him to pick us up at the airport in the Rolls-Royce.”Claire said helplessly, “Mom, didn’t you hear what the captain just said? We have

    Elaine stood at the roadside of the exit at the airport and kept calling Jacob. However, her calls could not get through.She cursed, “This damn Jacob! I don’t know where he has gone. He’s not answering my calls!”Claire asked her, “Mom, are you sure you told him what time to come?”Elaine said in exasperation, “Of course, I told him clearly. He also promised me over the phone. I don’t know why he hasn’t shown up and isn’t answering my calls. He’s really unreliable!”Claire also hurriedly took out her cell phone and called Jacob, but as Elaine had mentioned, he still did not answer his phone. She said with a very nervous expression, “Dad couldn’t have met with an accident, right? It’s not his bedtime yet, so why isn’t he answering our calls?”Charlie hurriedly comforted, “Honey, don’t be so negative. Dad is in good health, so how could he have met with an accident? Perhaps it’s just because he has fallen asleep. I think we should go home first and take a look!”“Yes!” Claire qu

    Jacob was naturally gleeful that he could get the late medieval bronze sculpture along with its base. Right after he wired the agreed upon ninety-eight grand to Mr. Cardensky, he was already imagining how Raymond would buy it from him for several hundred grand.On the other hand, once Mr. Cardensky received the transfer, he saw the name on the account: Jacob Wilson.He was left perplexed—wasn't that man's last name Montague? Who was this Jacob Wilson?Still, he didn't worry about it too much since most antique hustlers preferred to work with anonymity and therefore, using a different name was perfectly normal.He then carefully wrapped up the bronze sculpture before passing it Jacob, asking politely, "Would you happen to have any other requests, Mr. Montague? I have plenty of other items here if you'd permit me to give an introduction."Jacob shook his head, "Just this sculpture will do. I'm not fully confident in your work either since this is our first deal, so I'm just trying i

    Jacob asked, "Then, what would this sculpture be worth if it was genuine?"Mr. Cardensky thought about it. "Well, there are standards when it comes to Renaissance relics, but with something this exquisite, it'd definitely be auctionable for one or two million—and that's the conservative estimate.""How much would you sell it to me for?" Jacob then asked."Thirty percent of the market price," Mr. Cardensky quickly replied. "As I've said, the conservative estimate for this one is around one to two million, so we will set the price with the median estimate value at 1.5 million. And thirty percent means 450 grand."Jacob shook his head right away. "No, no, no… that's too expensive. What if I end up unable to sell it, on top of that?"In his mind, while he could barely accept that pricing, he still needed Raymond to be able to afford it if he wanted to swindle Raymond for twice the money.Mr. Cardensky quickly chuckled, "Oh, Mr. Montague—now you're being too serious. In this business,

    "Okay!"Mr. Cardensky smiled and pointed at a nearby farmyard. "There's our workshop—the good stuff is all in there. Allow me to take you there!"The farmyard seemed uninteresting at first glance, but Mr. Cardensky soon led them to the stables and brushed off the straws covering the floor, revealing a plank laid flat on the ground.Mr. Cardensky then lifted it, revealing a passage below—they had dug a cellar into the ground beneath, with the stables as an entry point.As Jacob followed Mr. Cardensky down the cellar, he exclaimed in awe, "Your operation is definitely big, digging such a huge cellar!"Mr. Cardensky smiled humbly. "Anyone working in the business would have sustained their losses before. In the end, we're all folk of humble origins, starting out with raiding tombs or excavating artifacts. Just digging a cellar is really nothing."As they conversed, they cleared the stairs and arrived at the main hall.It was certainly a hall as it was around a hundred square meters,

    Zachary nodded repeatedly. "Mr. Montague? Very well!""Yes!" Jacob grinned smugly. "Longer last names are simply better—it just sounds so authoritative."With that agreed upon, both men alighted, where the master was waiting nearby.Seeing them get off, he hurried over to them, smiling, "Please, follow me."Zachary looked around and huffed, "Honestly, Mr. Cardensky, isn't this way too far from the highway? The road is narrow and terrible, and I have to park my car all the way out here. Just coming here is taxing."Mr. Cardensky smiled in turn. "My friend, that's exactly why we picked this place. Do you remember seeing a couple of cars parked by the road, occupying half of it?""We arranged for them to be there. Anyone coming by car would have to slow down that way, buying time for us to see who they truly are. If it's cops, our watchers would quietly text us while we clean the house and bail."Zachary exclaimed in realization, "You boys really run a tight ship!""For sure," Mr.

    After working in Antique Street for years, Zachary's connections and influence were naturally special. And yet, though he was acquainted with some of the more impressive individuals, he was not that close with them either.For example, the forgery masters who worked specifically to deceive experts only accepted jobs from major clients, usually antique traders high in social status and wealth.In contrast, they wouldn't ever be interested in frivolous people like Zachary. Even if he could reach them, they might not look at him twice.If one would describe them as the cartel boss, then Zachary would be a low-level enforcer, managing night joints or goofing off.But now, Zachary had turned over a new leaf—he worked under Don Albert, so one of those masters was pleasantly surprised when he called one of them, inviting him to his own workshop for a visit and further discussion.As such, Zachary picked up Jacob and went over to the master's hideout where the latter worked on his count

    Zachary was naturally shrewd enough to read Jacob's intention.In reality, he wasn't offering to pay just because he wanted the profit. He merely wanted to get in Jacob's good graces. After all, wouldn't Jacob be even more grateful that he wasn't just helping his revenge but also helping him make money?As such, he didn't hesitate to tell Jacob, "Well, chief—since you'll be paying, I will make sure that you will get every cent of profit that you deserve."Jacob was grinning ear-to-ear, but he said, "Oh, you don't have to! If we really are making a profit, there's no way I would let your good work go unrewarded!"Spreading his arms, he continued generously, "How about this? I will pay the full cost while you get twenty percent of the net profit!"Zachary laughed. "Now, that can wait, chief. We need to pay as soon as we decide on the item we want, and there's no time for buyer's regret. But if Raymond doesn't take the bait, all that money will go down the drain, and whether we can s

    Zachary chuckled and continued, "Well, I went to Antique Street and asked around. Turns out our mutual friend only brought a few hundred thousand grand with him. If he messes up and loses all his money, won't it be over for him?""He won't just be broke either—he'd be humiliated and forced to fuck off from Antique Street. You'd get even then!"Jacob was at once excited.Just yesterday, Claire and Charlie were warning him that assault meant doing time.As the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association and the next presidential-hopeful, he would lose his place if he was charged with assault or being an accessory to a case.However, Zachary's plan was much better. Jacob wouldn't have to take responsibility, and the damage on Raymond would be even worse!In comparison, slapping Raymond meant nothing. Watching him go broke and get humiliated would really ease his heart!With that in mind, he promptly pressed Zachary, "Are you sure that prick will mess up?""I can't a

    Jacob Wilson was in his office at the Calligraphy and Painting Association, planning his itinerary in Dubai.Still, he was immediately thrilled when Zachary told him that there was progress, and he quickly said, "Come see me at the Calligraphy and Painting Association. We'll talk in my office!""Alright!" Zachary agreed to it happily. "Just wait, Mr. Wilson. I'll be right there!"Jacob then quickly told him, "By the way, remember to address me as the vice president when you're here. Got it?"Zachary was naturally sharp enough to understand why, especially around other members of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.Smiling, he said, "Don't worry, chief. You can always be at ease when I'm on the job!"Once he hung up, he drove to the Calligraphy and Painting Association at top speed.There were just a dozen people around the dozens of work cubicles although Zachary was curious about the personal effects or office tools in the cubicles.After asking around, a staff member le

    Then, Mick continued, "I won't lie—Moore Group's bean counters have been eager to get rid of Vintage Deluxe for a while now. It's only Miss Moore's insistence that keeps them at bay, even occasionally coming to check on how business is going. That means she holds sentiment for this place, but if she knows that Raymond is back and doing well, she might hire him again!"Zachary could laugh right then. After all, Mick was terrible at gathering information—he could worry about anyone taking his palace, but not Raymond. The man was fired because he had insulted Master Wade's father in-law, and Miss Moore was endlessly respectful—even obedient to Master Wade. There was no chance that she would hire Raymond back after what he had done, and Mick was just being paranoid.However, Zachary did not tell Mick that.As Mick was begging him to intervene and thus owing him big time, he would also be helping Jacob Wilson get even.Two birds with one stone, so why not?With that in mind, Zachar
