Claudia laughed and said, “We have at least the two of us already, so it’ll also be a brave step for us.”Stephanie snorted and said, “I don’t want to form a girl group with you! Mrs. Lewis and I still have to work hard to take good care of Charlie’s orphanage!”Charlie also said to Claudia at this time, “Claudia, let’s go now if you don’t have anything else to do. The dean of the university and the person in charge of recruiting overseas undergraduates have already arrived. We should go and meet them to complete the process.”“Okay!” Claudia hurriedly nodded and turned to Stephanie as she said, “Stephanie, I’ll get going first, then!”Stephanie smiled and said, “Mrs. Lewis and I will celebrate with you at noon after you get the admission notice!”Charlie raised his brows and said, “Count me in. Tell Mrs. Lewis that I’ll have to trouble her to cook more special dishes at noon today.”Stephanie said excitedly, “Really? I’ll go to the supermarket to find Mrs. Lewis and buy more del

Charlie had grown up in an orphanage, so he understood Claudia’s feelings at this moment very well. Back then, when he was completely ignorant of everything that Stephen had arranged for him, he had been really sad and desperate as he curled up in a corner of the dormitory of Aurous Hill Welfare Institute alone and cried until dawn. Today, Claudia was going through almost the exact same process as he had back then. This was also why Charlie was paying special attention to Claudia. He hoped to be able to use his attitude and actions to help her untie the knots in her heart so that she could face her future life with openness and optimism. Therefore, Charlie told Claudia about his own experience in the orphanage, hoping that she could find resonance with him.When Charlie described his mental state back then to Claudia in detail, she really felt a strong sense of empathy toward him. At this moment, she suddenly realized that Charlie might be the one who truly understood her best i

Isaac was already waiting inside by the time Charlie drove the car to the front of Aurous University’s Academic Affairs Building.When Isaac saw Charlie parking his car, he quickly stepped forward and helped him open the car door as he said respectfully, “Young Master, I’ve already made all the arrangements with the school. Claudia only needs to fill out an application form and submit all her documents before she can choose her major directly.”Charlie nodded and then remembered the banner he had seen outside and asked him, “Have you heard of Logan Carrick? This person sounds familiar.”“Logan Carrick...” Isaac hurriedly said, “Mr. Carrick is the richest man in Northvale. Some years ago, he deliberately split up all his family’s industries, so his rankings also dropped, but the Carrick family’s strength is still very strong in Northvale.”After saying that, Isaac asked, “Did you see them hanging up a banner at the entrance? They were taking it down when I arrived. I asked about it

Isaac smiled slightly and said, “Mr. Laverick, I’ll have to trouble you with this matter this time.”Mr. Laverick responded with a smile, “Mr. Cameron, you’re welcome. It’s just a trivial matter. Besides, recruiting international students is also an enrollment task that we attach great importance to recently, so you’re also helping me complete my performance evaluation, Mr. Cameron.”Isaac laughed, introduced Claudia to him, and said, “Mr. Laverick, this is Claudia, the distant relative I mentioned. She was born and raised in Canada, and she also studied in Canada. The person next to her is also my distant relative. He’s Claudia’s cousin.”Mr. Laverick nodded at Charlie and then smiled as he spoke to Claudia, “Hello, Claudia. I’m Malachi Laverick, and I’m the Director of Admissions at Aurous University. Welcome to Aurous University.”Claudia said very politely, “Hello, Mr. Laverick. I hope that you will take good care of me if I’m lucky enough to be able to study at Aurous Universi

Claudia had already lost interest in material things and money at a young age when her peers were just beginning to appreciate and realize the importance of it.The tragic death of her family members caused her to take these things lightly. She did not expect to be rich, nor did she pursue a good life or a high social status in this life. She only hoped to live well without regrets so that the spirits of her family members in heaven could also feel relieved.Therefore, after looking at so many majors, she had no interest in any other majors and was only interested in the archaeology major. This was not only because she wanted to know more about Oskia, but it was also because she wanted to avoid dealing with too many people as much as she could. She would face all kinds of historical sites and artifacts every day in archaeology, and the major was very unpopular, so she would not have many classmates, which was more in line with her selection criteria.So, Claudia made up her mind

Claudia then handed the information over to Mr. Laverick. After looking through the information carefully, Mr. Laverick said, “Okay, there are basically no other problems. The admission notice will be mailed to the address here when the time comes. There will be a reporting time on it, so when the time comes, you should report to the university and go through the admission procedure accordingly.”With that said, he asked Claudia, “Do you have relatives in Aurous Hill?”Claudia nodded. “My godmother is in Aurous Hill.”Mr. Laverick asked, “Do you plan to live on campus or only attend university during the day?” Claudia asked, “Can I only choose one option out of these two?”Mr. Laverick nodded and said, “Theoretically, yes, because the university needs to sign an agreement with students if they are only attending university during the day. The process is a little more troublesome because personal safety issues and responsibilities are involved in this matter. It’s not impossible

When Mr. Laverick heard the woman’s words, he asked in surprise, “Huh? So soon? Didn’t he say that he would be arriving at noon or later?”The woman said, “Unexpectedly, he left early at night. He called the previous dean just now and said that he’s almost here! I guess that it’s too late for us to meet him at the entrance of the university now, so we can only wait for him downstairs!”Aurous University’s new campus covered an area of almost five thousand acres, and the entrance of the university to the Academic Affairs Building was more than one kilometer. If a group of middle-aged and elderly people were to really walk there, it would take them at least ten to twenty minutes.Having said that, she hurriedly said, “Mr. Laverick, you should hurry up. The dean asked us to meet downstairs in three minutes. I have to go and notify the others now.”The woman left as soon as she said this. When Mr. Laverick heard this, he could only say to Isaac apologetically, “Mr. Cameron, I’m reall

Mr. Laverick nodded. “I’ll see you off downstairs, then.”When the four of them arrived downstairs, a group of school leaders were already waiting there. Mr. Laverick hurried over to the line after saying goodbye to them. Isaac then looked at Charlie and asked respectfully, “Young Master, what other arrangements do you have in mind?”Charlie said, “I have nothing else to do. I will send Claudia back first and have a meal at Mrs. Lewis’s house at noon.”After saying that, Charlie then added, “By the way, I brought Porter and a group of soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies to rescue an old lady and her only son in Mexico back then. Ask Porter for the old lady’s home address so that I can pay her a visit in the next few days.”When Isaac had gone to Mexico with Albert, Charlie and the soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies had already annihilated the entire Crazy Juarez. He was not very clear about the details, but his style of action had always been very quick and straightforward, so he did

The other antique traders who were keeping tabs on the situation were left confused by Trippy's message.[Maybe even those out-of-towners know that Raymond is a sucker? So they traveled overnight just to see what happens?][I know Raymond is in trouble, but is it really worth traveling hundreds of miles just to watch?][Maybe they know he's a sucker, so they came to sell him more counterfeits?][Shit, that must be it! Suckers are rare these days, after all!][Damn straight! Just knowing that there's one in Aurous Hill, you'd be eager to come over.]Even Mick Crane who had just woken up and saw the message immediately sent a voice message: "Those conmen are just like flies flocking around shit as soon as they smell it.""Oh, but what they don't know is that Raymond has no more money! I heard he only had a few hundred thousand for the startup, and the bronze sculpture must have cost most of it. I'm afraid those people won't even get their gas money and toll costs back after travel

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l
