Having said that, Christopher looked depressed as he said, “I get angry when I think of your mother. She is being so arrogant just because she has earned a little money. She is so domineering every day and treats us like her lackeys...”Harold was also helpless and sighed as he said, “Well, Dad, you should also know the current situation in our family now. It’s fortunate that Mom could turn our lives around through her live broadcast. As for her current temper, I honestly can’t do anything. The main reason is because we hurt her too much a while ago, especially you and Grandma, who did not treat Mom like a human being!”Christopher said angrily, “You can’t blame me! It’s not as if you don’t know what your mother did! Not to mention being pregnant with another man’s child, she even infected me with a venereal disease! Which man would be able to tolerate this?!”After saying that, Christopher then said resentfully, “That’s fine, but the main point is that the incident broke out at the

When Christopher heard someone knocking on the door, he subconsciously asked, “Who is it?”As soon as he said these words, the door was pushed open, and several police officers walked in. One of them looked at Christopher and Harold and asked, “Are you Hannah Queen’s family members?”Christopher subconsciously said, “I... I am her husband.”Harold also said, “I am her son...”The police officer nodded and said, “Okay, get up and come with us to cooperate with us in our investigation.”“Cooperate with your investigation?” Christopher subconsciously asked, “Officer, did something happen to Hannah?”The police officer said indifferently, “Didn’t you see the video that was exposed on the internet?”“Video?” Harold blurted out, “What video? We don’t know anything about any video...”The police officer asked in disbelief, “You guys haven’t seen the video exposing you on the internet?” “Exposing us?” Christopher asked nervously, “What the h*ll is going on? I don’t understand what yo

The police officer asked coldly, “Since you’ve already made so much money, why are you still constantly selling misery online? Your wife’s Mercedes-Benz Big G should be enough to pay for the living expenses and medical expenses for both of you, right? The netizens have been kind enough to help you solve your problems, so why didn’t you stop after your problem was solved? Why did you continue making use of the netizens’ sympathy for your family? You already have an endless amount of money to spend but you’re still saying that your family is so miserable in front of the camera. Do you think this is right?”Christopher was speechless for a moment. He knew that this was an outrageous matter and that they were wrong. They could obviously pay for their treatment with three thousand dollars but they had decided to raise thirty million dollars through fundraising. This was definitely a problem, so having the police come to their door was already something he had envisioned earlier. Christop

Personal anchors such as Hannah could apply directly for cash withdrawals from the platform for their income from live broadcasting, but the money was pre-tax, and the anchors needed to declare taxes themselves. However, Hannah had never filed for a tax return because she was reluctant to lose a large amount of income.Now that the tax department had come to her, she suddenly panicked and could only lie and say, “Officer, you’ve also seen the situation of my family. There are indeed two paralyzed patients and an elderly in my family who needs to be taken care of. I was really busy, so I forgot to do it at the moment...”With that said, she had a flash of inspiration, and she quickly came up with an excuse for herself as she said, “You see, I haven’t been selling goods on my live broadcast for long, and it has only been a month. In fact, I planned to go and file for a tax return after I was done getting busy over the next few days...”The personnel from the tax department knew that

“What?!” Hannah said in shock, “I would be sentenced to prison for ten years?!”The police officer said indifferently, “Once it is characterized as fraud, the amount of money involved would be a particularly large amount. The starting sentence would be ten years, and it would include confiscation of all your illegal gains. If your amount of money increases during this period of time, you will definitely be sentenced to ten years or even longer.”Hannah was stunned. She did not expect that there would be such serious consequences to selling misery on a live broadcast that would even encompass criminal law. However, even though it was Elaine who had somehow helped Hannah out of that predicament, Hannah could not forgive her at all. She even secretly swore in her heart that she would definitely find a way to exact revenge on Elaine when she was released. Meanwhile, Hannah’s video was still fermenting on the internet. More and more people who had bought things from Hannah’s live br

As the popularity of the video continued increasing and Hannah was formally detained, the Aurous Hill police also released the results of handling this matter to the public.The netizens were initially very dissatisfied with the punishment when they heard that Hannah was only sentenced to ten days of administrative detention.However, the police also showed Hannah’s husband and son’s medical report to the public. The father and son duo had indeed been paralyzed in bed for several months and could not receive active and effective treatment due to the lack of money.However, the netizens were still skeptical when they first saw this article. After all, in Elaine’s subsequent exposure of the information, it was said that this family lived in a villa at the famous Thompson First, where the price of a single unit exceeded one hundred million dollars. Therefore, everyone was questioning that even if Hannah’s husband and son were really paralyzed, how could she not bring them for treatment

Jacob, who was still a little disheveled, said impatiently from inside, “Why are you knocking? I want to rest even if you don’t want to sleep!”Elaine said impatiently, “Just open the door when I ask you to do so. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and open the door!”After that, Elaine began knocking on the door vigorously again.Jacob had no choice but to open the door. He glanced at her and said in annoyance, “Hurry up if you have anything to say.”Elaine looked at Jacob and frowned when she saw that he was only wearing a pair of briefs. She then said, “Put on your pants quickly and drive me out to buy some firecrackers. I want to celebrate by setting off some firecrackers!”“Firecrackers?” Jacob muttered in dissatisfaction, “It’s not the New Year so why do you want to set off firecrackers?!”Elaine blurted out, “Hannah is done for! This kind of great joyous event is celebrated by the whole world, so why can’t I set off firecrackers to celebrate?”Jacob waved his

After Elaine gave up on the idea of buying firecrackers to celebrate, Wendy rushed to the police station to bring Christopher, Harold, and Lady Wilson out of the police station.Wendy had been in a meeting at the company tonight when she received news that something had happened to her mother. She drove the company car and rushed back home, but the police called her before she got home and asked her to head to the police station to pick up her family members.Therefore, Wendy hurried to the police station and picked up her father, brother, and grandmother after going through the formalities. On the way back, Wendy was driving and Lady Wilson was sitting in the passenger seat. Christopher and Harold were slumped in the back seat, bound by seat belts. Lady Wilson kept crying continuously in the car as she muttered, “It’s over for the Wilson family... It’s completely over...”Harold also had tears in his eyes as he clenched his teeth and cursed, “That b*tch, Elaine, is really d*mne

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
