This way, it was basically consistent with the names, age ranges, and kinships of the people mentioned by Vera.After that, Emmett checked the file information of Elaine and Claire. He saw their identification photos and compared them with the photos sent by Vera. He immediately confirmed that these two people were the people Vera had asked him to investigate.When Vera returned to Scarlet Pinnacle Manor, he had already obtained all the information of these two people. When he saw Vera, he said respectfully, “Miss, you’ve come back at the right time. I’ve obtained the information of the two people you asked me to investigate.”Vera asked happily, “So soon? Quick, let me take a look!”Emmett handed his cell phone to Vera with both hands and said respectfully, “Miss, please take a look.”Vera glanced at Elaine’s photo. This photo had been taken when Elaine had changed her identification card a few years ago. Although she looked much younger in the photo, her facial features hadn’t

Vera had found out all information about Charlie’s double identity through Claire and Elaine, which really made her feel extraordinarily excited.She felt that she seemed to be receiving heavenly help when she came to Aurous Hill this time, making everything go extremely smoothly for her.However, she did not intend to approach the mother-and-daughter duo, let alone Charlie.She felt that she had to stick to her plan yesterday and not take the initiative to contact Charlie until after school started and she became friends with Claudia. At this time, Charlie did not know that the young girl whom he had accidentally rescued in Northern Europe had already found out information about his two layers of identity.Isaac called Charlie at this moment and said respectfully over the phone, “Young Master, I’ve already confirmed it with Mr. Waldron. The old lady that you’re looking for has just returned to her natal home in Skywinger with her son some time ago. I’ve already gotten the specif

“Okay, Young Master.” Isaac said without hesitation, “I’ll send it to your WhatsApp now.”Isaac sent the information file to Charlie after hanging up the phone.After Charlie looked at it, he found that the old lady’s background was very simple, but there also seemed to be something extraordinary about it.The old lady’s name was Fumiko Jenson. She was born in the mountainous area of southern Skywinger, and she grew up in the mountains of Skywinger since she was young. She did not marry far away but married a young man from the same village.There was a high probability that she rarely left the small mountain village in fifty years because she was a permanent resident of the family during every census, and it was clearly marked on the information that she cooperated with the census.In its heyday, there were only about forty households in the village with more than three hundred people, but there was a serious population loss, and there were only a dozen households with more than

That night, after Claire came home, Charlie told her about the trip he was going to take with Isaac tomorrow.Since Isaac was the owner of Shangri-La, in the eyes of ordinary people, Claire thought that Charlie was going to help Isaac take a look at Feng Shui.Although she felt a little distressed that Charlie was going to look at Feng Shui right after returning to Oskia, she did not stop him since he claimed that he had already made an appointment with Isaac. Early the next morning, Charlie and Isaac flew to Granger Province, which was located in the southwest of Oskia. Since Charlie concluded from the old lady’s name that the old lady’s family background was not simple, he called Porter after the plane took off.When the phone was connected, Porter asked respectfully, “Mr. Wade, what are your orders for me?”Charlie said, “Porter, I need you to tell me the old lady’s state and performance in detail after we rescued the victims in Mexico that day.”Porter said, “Mr. Wade, aft

Porter replied, “Mr. Wade, after they woke up, I arranged for someone to record all of their identity information. Since their passports were destroyed, I had someone help them contact the embassy for the replacement of their documents and then purchased tickets for them to go home. I gave each of them 3,000 US dollars in emergency cash and sent them on the plane one by one.”With that said, Porter added, “But the old lady and her son were exceptions.”“I arranged for the soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies to escort them back to the country personally, and they were then sent all the way home.”“Before leaving, the soldier in charge of escorting them wanted to give the old lady and her son 100,000 dollars according to my instructions, but the old lady refused to accept it. I thought about how you mentioned that you were going to visit them after returning to the country, so I did not ask the soldier to insist on giving them the money.”“I see.” Charlie frowned slightly. Although he

Charlie smiled faintly when he heard the other party’s question and said, “You must be Lady Jenson’s son, right? My name is Charlie Wade, and my father was an old acquaintance of your father. He asked me to come and see Lady Jenson.”The other party asked in surprise, “Your father knows my father?”Charlie nodded slightly. An old lady then slowly walked out from the cooking shed and looked at Charlie somewhat doubtfully as she frowned and asked, “Young man, you know my husband?”Charlie said, “You must be Lady Jenson, right? My father knows your husband.”The old lady hesitated for a moment and then quickly said, “Come in, come in!”With that said, she said to her son, “Jeremy, invite the guests into the house quickly and serve them some water.”The middle-aged man hurriedly opened the door and said politely, “Please come in and have a seat!”Charlie nodded, thanked him, and then entered the courtyard with Isaac.The small courtyard was not that big and was only a few dozen s

Only then did Charlie come back to his senses and say with a smile, “Thank you, but there’s no need for you to go through all the trouble. We’re not thirsty.”As he spoke, Lady Jenson washed her hands. She disregarded the water droplets on her hand and hurriedly trotted in as she spoke with some trepidation, “Our distinguished guests, please have a seat. I feel really sorry because our family is poor so we don’t have any decent furniture for you to sit on!”Charlie said respectfully, “Lady Jenson, please have a seat first!”Lady Jenson hesitated for a moment and then smiled as she sat down in front of Charlie. She looked at Charlie kindly and asked curiously, “Young man, you said that your father knows my husband, so I wonder what is your father’s name?”Charlie was suddenly at a loss for words. In truth, his previous idea was very simple. After finding the old lady, he would give her a Rejuvenating Pill under the pretext that he was the son of her husband’s good friend. He would

Charlie was shocked by the old lady’s words.He subconsciously thought that the old lady’s memory of him had not been erased by his Reiki as he had guessed before. This kind of thing had never happened in Charlie’s perception.So, he subconsciously wondered if this old lady also possessed the mastery of Reiki to a certain extent. So, he asked tentatively, “Lady Jenson, why are you asking such a question?”When the old lady saw that Charlie seemed to be defensive, she said very frankly, “Young man, to tell you the truth, I’m just making a guess.”After that, she paused slightly and continued speaking, “When I was rescued from Mexico by those heroes, I found that it was not just me and Jeremy, but everyone on the bus had lost their memories. We all remembered how we were tricked to go there and how those people mutilated us, but we couldn’t remember how we were rescued.”“Those heroes then told us that they used some kind of tear gas or something that must have caused our memory

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
