Marianne was still completely unmoved. She turned to look at Hiroshi and said seriously, “Sir, the reason why I didn’t get angry at you is because I think that you’re quite sincere and are a gentleman, but if you continue pestering me in this manner, I probably will not be able to communicate with you with this friendly attitude anymore.”Hiroshi instantly understood.The young woman in front of him must be a young lady who was not short of money whatsoever and did not take money to heart at all. It was estimated that her net worth and assets were not much worse compared to his own young lady.What was the point of offering a premium of ten million dollars when facing such a woman other than being able to make an offer? Even if it was thirty million or fifty million dollars, it was impossible for her to take him seriously, and he would only end up looking foolish if he continued holding on.He could only sigh in desperation and say apologetically, “I’m sorry, Miss. I was too reck

Hiroshi followed the salesgirl and took a car to Building 1 after paying one million dollars for the booking fee.Marianne had already preceded him and gone to the apartment unit on the top floor with Madam Marilyn.Madam Marilyn, who was still feeling ashamed of her own overconfidence just now, followed Marianne and could not help but speak up, saying, “Miss Marianne, fortunately, you have foresight. You didn’t heed my advice just now and paid the booking fee in advance. Otherwise, that person just now would have bought this apartment unit...”Marianne smiled slightly and said, “Madam Marilyn, don’t say that. I don’t have any foresight. I’m just relatively cautious. Perhaps there are ninety-nine out of a hundred times where my cautiousness ends up being useless, but in my opinion, it’s worth it if my cautiousness comes in handy even once.”Madam Marilyn nodded slightly. She actually felt extremely amazed even though she had a calm expression.Having been a housekeeper for so long

Madam Marilyn noticed that Marianne did not even look around the apartment after entering but simply stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window to look at the river view, so she could not help but remind her, “Miss Marianne, do you want to take a look at the layout of the house so I can help you if you’re not satisfied with anything or if there’s anything you would like to adjust.”“Oh, okay...” Marianne came back to her senses and looked around the whole apartment with Madam Marilyn. This apartment unit was not too big. It was more than two hundred square meters with four bedrooms, one of which had been renovated into a study room. In addition, there was also a reception hall on the side of the Yaak River. The developer had already added sports equipment to the apartment unit, which could be considered a relatively decent fitness area, and one could also see the view of the river from the sofa in the living room because of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the front wall.

That night, after Marianne had settled the newly purchased household necessities, she returned to Scarlet Pinnacle Manor with Madam Marilyn. Both Logan and his wife were also very happy when they learned that Marianne had been hired. He asked the servants to organize an elaborate celebration feast at home as a celebration for Marianne.To Logan’s surprise, Vera, who never liked such festivities, also joined in happily. At the dinner table, Logan said to Marianne, “Marianne, if you have nothing to do when you come to Aurous Hill to work in the future, you can come and live at Scarlet Pinnacle Manor and ask Marilyn to arrange a big room for you!”Marianne hurriedly said, “Lord Carrick, Madam Marilyn accompanied me to buy a house in Aurous Hill in the afternoon, and the university will also provide me with an apartment in the future.”Logan said in surprise, “You already bought a house? It’s safer for you to live here, and it’d be more convenient for you to live here with Marilyn

Marianne bid farewell to Logan and his wife as well as Vera after dinner, and Madam Marilyn sent her back to Thompson First.Marianne suddenly felt settled down as she entered the first house she had bought in Aurous Hill.She opened the window of the viewing balcony, lay on the edge of the bed, and watched the night view and slowly moving ships on the Yaak River. She instantly felt very relaxed as the evening breeze from the river blew at her. The top floor had an excellent view, and this apartment unit was at the side of the top floor, so it basically would not be disturbed by noise from the neighbors. Therefore, Marianne felt that it was even more value for money. She even felt the urge to stay in Aurous Hill for a few more days because of this.However, after thinking about it, she felt that it would be better for her to leave Aurous Hill as soon as possible after signing the contract with Aurous University. She also thought about telling Charlie that she had been hired by A

Elaine, who suddenly had a flash of inspiration, realized almost immediately that the feasibility of this idea that she had come up with was very high. Hannah was a very popular internet celebrity now, and she always had tens of thousands of people online in her live broadcast room. Sometimes, the number of viewers in her live broadcast room could even reach twenty to thirty thousand. If Elaine could expose such a popular anchor, she would definitely be able to attract a lot of attention from viewers. Moreover, even if Elaine could not gain any fans, income, or benefits, she was still extremely willing to expose Hannah. Not to mention if she would not get any benefits, but if someone told Elaine to pay a hundred thousand dollars in exchange for Hannah’s ruin and poverty, Elaine would definitely clench her teeth and fork out the one hundred thousand dollars. It was because of this that she felt that her idea was simply equivalent to killing two birds with one stone and was absol

Elaine was scared out of her wits, and her first thought was to run away.However, she thought of how she was still limping on one leg and could not outrun the three of them no matter what it was.If she shouted and called her son-in-law for help now, she might startle Hannah, who was broadcasting live upstairs. If Hannah found out that she was sneaking around her villa, Hannah might be able to guess her intentions. Wouldn’t she lose the opportunity to expose her if Hannah started to be wary of her?Elaine’s mind was racing, and her eyes were also twitching non-stop.When Jennifer saw Elaine’s shifty eyes and how she did not say a word even after a long time, she stepped forward immediately, grabbed Elaine by the collar, then slapped her as she said angrily, “I feel so annoyed when I see you. Get out of this place!”Elaine felt both angry and afraid after getting slapped, but she then saw that the three of them were all wearing identical T-shirts with the logo of the same cleani

“Hannah Queen?!”Jennifer frowned immediately when she heard this and asked sternly, “How can someone like her turn their lives around? Could it be that she is using her appearance to sleep with others?!” Elaine sneered and said, “Selling her body with her appearance? Someone like her?! I estimate that someone like her who sells her body with her appearance will only get two steamed buns in exchange, at most!”After saying that, Elaine looked around and then looked upstairs before hurriedly saying, “Jennifer, this is not the place to talk. Let’s go over there and talk. Don’t let the Wilson family who’s upstairs hear us!”Jennifer immediately winked at her buddies. Yulia instantly understood and stepped forward to assist Elaine. They quickly walked toward the far edge of the fence. When Elaine saw that there was no longer any need to worry about being heard by the Wilson family, she stopped them and said, “Let’s talk here, then!”Jennifer was the first to stop in her tracks when

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

Zachary then said, "By the way, I have some friends who have a lot of stock. How much capital do you have, Mr. Cole? I'll check if they have stuff that suits you, and you can partner with them."When Zachary asked how much capital, he was basically asking Raymond how much he would invest in his own business and how much he could spend on taking new stock as he was buying.As such, Raymond replied modestly, "I've been chasing my tail for a while, so I didn't earn more than a few hundred thousand. I definitely would have no issue taking items with rebates, but I'm afraid I can't afford premiums.""Alright!" Zachary nodded, having discerned the scale of Zachary's capital."I'll check on what's available and see if we can get a few personal deals."Raymond nodded. "Thank you, Zachary!"Zachary smiled, shaking his head. "Mr. Crane, please buy another fruit basket for Mr. Cole—I'll pay you later."Mick quickly said, "Oh, you don't have to, Mr. Evans! It's my pleasure, no worries!"Zach
