“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

Christopher also sighed despondently and said, “Wendy, you’re right...”Wendy was silent for a moment as if she had made some kind of decision. She suddenly restarted the car and made a right turn at the intersection where she should be going straight, then spoke up and said, “Forget it. I’ll send you two to the hospital right now! You should hurry up and recover from your injuries so that you can go out and find a decent job after you recover!”Christopher nodded and said dejectedly, “To be honest, I’m about to lose my mind from lying in bed for half a year. I’ll go and find a job after I recover...”After saying that, he looked at Harold again and said, “Harold, you’ve been fooling around for most of your life, and it’s time for you to get a little work done! When the time comes, both of us will look for a job. Neither one of us can stay home idly to wait to be fed!”Harold knew that his dream of becoming a rich heir was shattered, so he could only nod, choked up, and said, “I kn

Wendy’s determination startled Lady Wilson. At the same time, she also felt a chill down her back.She was shocked because she did not expect that Wendy, whom she had always led by the nose, had become more and more powerful ever since she had taken up the position as the manager of the etiquette company. She even made it clear that everyone in the family would have to obey her from now on.As for the chills down her back, it was because she realized that Wendy had never forgiven her for what she had done back then. The only reason why Wendy was still taking care of her instead of taking revenge on her was mainly because she was old. However, Wendy had already made herself very clear. If she really continued relying on her age to cause trouble, she would really be left with nothing and no one to depend on.Lady Wilson was not a fool. She knew that in a family, whoever controlled the money had the right to speak for the whole family.She was old and had no assets. It was even a pr

Since Hiroshi had arrived in Aurous Hill a few days earlier ahead of the Ito family, he specially arranged for a convoy to pick them up today.When the Ito family left the airport by car, the flowers that arrived at random were also transported away by multiple refrigerated trucks that were prepared in advance. Although Charlie was the only thing on Nanako’s mind, she still chose Shangri-La as her first stop. However, Yahiko did not go to Shangri-La, but was taken to Thompson First by Hiroshi. Yahiko did not plan to go to Shangri-La before the wedding because he was a well-known figure in Japan, after all, and he was worried that he would be seen by too many people, thus exposing the secret of his legs regenerating. Isaac only got the news when Nanako’s convoy arrived at Shangri-La.Upon learning of her arrival, Isaac called Charlie immediately and reported the news to Charlie. When Charlie heard that Nanako was here, his first reaction was to be very pleasantly surprised. It

Rosalie nodded slightly and then asked Nanako, “By the way, Miss Nanako, did you tell Mr. Wade in advance before coming here today?”“No.” Nanako said somewhat shyly, “Charlie-kun must be busier on weekdays, so I didn’t tell him in advance.”Rosalie smiled and said, “Even if you didn’t tell him, Mr. Cameron would have already told him as soon as possible. Mr. Wade attaches so much importance to you, so he might already be on his way here now.”Nanako blushed and said, “No... I think Charlie-kun also attaches great importance to you...”Rosalie said shyly, “I... I’m not in the same situation as you... I’m Mr. Wade’s subordinate, but you’re Mr. Wade’s confidante...”Nanako looked at her and asked curiously, “Are you really just his subordinate?”Rosalie said somewhat unnaturally for a moment, “I’m really just his subordinate. Mr. Wade has saved me many times and helped me a lot, so I naturally have to stay by his side to repay his kindness to me. Therefore, I’m naturally just his s

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

With the last stroke, Raymond got on a ladder to reach the old signboard, pasting the banner over the old shop sign.Then, he added a notice by the entrance: We buy all antiques and measure all treasures.As soon as the makeshift sign and notice were up, Mick was the first to arrive with a fruit basket to celebrate the occasion.The instant they met, he greeted Raymond warmly, "Ah, Mr. Cole! You sure are efficient—you just came back yesterday evening, and you're already setting up shop today at noon!"Raymond smiled, "Doing a small business by myself is naturally much quicker."Mick shook his head disapprovingly as he put the fruit basket by the door, "Now, now. Don't be a stranger, Mr. Cole—almost everyone in Antique Street is a friend, but you didn't tell the gang when you opened the shop! It'd hype things up when everyone comes bringing you gifts!"Raymond quickly shook his head. "Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't know if this humble trade will last. It's better to keep m

To not lose three months' worth of rent on top of that, Donald called over the owner at top speed while getting some of the friends in the antique trade to appraise what merchandise he had left.Taking losses had always been the hardest pill to swallow, but once the decision was made, there really was nothing that couldn't be given up.The owner was plenty pleased as well since that meant someone was picking up on his rental. He promptly had Donald sign the agreement transferring the last three months for the rental to Raymond while signing a new rental contract with Raymond.Raymond didn't have to pay up immediately either—he just had to start paying rent to the owner once Donald's three-month rent was up.Once the agreement was signed, every stall owner as well as owners of businesses resembling the Pearl House swarmed the premises.After all, they loved to take stock from people in the same line of business. Once a business owner decided to close shop, they wouldn't be bothered
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6446
If Donald had to maintain his business under such circumstances, the next three months would be even worse.Hence, instead of doing that, he really wanted to stop this business altogether.As for what remaining merchandise, he'd just get some fellow in the same business to take them off his hands at a lower cost while he gained his freedom sooner.Hence, he stopped Raymond, "Wait, my friend! Let's talk about this… if the hundred fifty grand transfer fee is too much for you, why don't I cut it down even more—say, a hundred grand instead?"Raymond turned and told him solemnly, "I'm not paying a transfer fee at all."Frustrated, Donald blurted, "At least give me ten grand for my troubles! My shop is good—you'd definitely make bank once you take it off my hands!"Raymond thought about it and eventually said, "How about this—if you can clear up the place by the end of the day, I will pay you five grand on top of the forty five grand that is your remaining rent, but not one cent more."
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6445
The reasoning was simple too—with businesses failing, most shops were losing money.With months left on Donald's rental contract, all he could do now was keep his business afloat while attempting to transfer the rental to someone else. At the same time, he must be prepared for the situation where no one would rent it from him, and he must honor his contract to the very last second.With the losses he had sustained up until the contract expires, he definitely wouldn't extend it. That meant packing up to leave while returning everything to the owner to claim the deposit that the owner was holding.Even now that he was asking for a transfer fee, his mindset was to get whatever he could get. By the last month, Donald would naturally give up on such pipe dreams regardless.Still, when Raymond saw the lack of merchandise in the shop, he could tell Donald's business was at its final stretch. What little he sold would serve to recuperate his losses, and there was no chance in hell he would

Elaine thought that it would be fine even if Jacob couldn't put aside his pride so soon.Right now, she had become more considerate of Jacob and could understand that men valued their pride. As such, she could just wait until they went traveling together, and they'd definitely be staying in the same room. With that, it would be more natural for them to share a room together again when they return.-Early the next day, Raymond arrived at Antique Street, coming over from an express hotel nearby.Although he had asked Trippy to look for a shop, he knew that Trippy might not really help him—he had to rely on himself for everything.But during his stroll yesterday afternoon, he had noticed plenty of shops that were being offered on rent or sublease. Business in Antique Street was likely poor, so Raymond came early to make inquiries about the rented properties.When Oskia's antique market was at its peak, Antique Street too enjoyed its golden age. Even now, the eyes of any antique p

Gratitude showed on Elaine and Jacob's faces as soon as they heard that Charlie was giving them a hundred grand too, with Elaine clapping and cheering, "Oh, what day is it today? All the good things are happening in one stroke! I heard Dubai is heaven for shoppers, so it'd definitely be a thrill!"Then, turning toward Jacob, she asked, "Do they need a visa over there?"Jacob thought about it. "I don't think so.""Great!"Even more excited now, Elaine quickly told Jacob, "Say no more—I will pack right now, and we can leave tomorrow!"She was ready to head to her room and do just that too, but Jacob quickly stopped her, "Calm down—we can't leave just because we want to. There's so much to plan: booking our flight, doing our research on the more interesting places to visit, getting a hotel that makes traveling convenient, as well as deciding how long we'll be there.""Right! Right!" Elaine nodded in realization and exclaimed in praise, "In the end, it's my hubby who thinks things th

Elaine was beside herself with joy at those words. "Oh, wonderful! It's been so long since I went traveling! I never really had time to enjoy myself before in the US anyway, and I even got screwed over before I left."Then, she turned toward Jacob and grumbled, "You really didn't give a shit back when we got married. Not only was our wedding so discreet, you didn't even take me on a honeymoon!""You were already heavily pregnant," Jacob chuckled awkwardly. "Where would I have taken you…?"Then, he quickly added, "Well, since dear Charlie has said it, you should pick a place you like. We will treat it as our honeymoon!"It wasn't just Elaine—it had been a long while since Jacob had gone traveling. He had thought he would find success in both love and career during the Korean exchange trip, but he had been left blinded by the blinding presence of Yolden Hart, and his love had basically ended there. That was why there was nothing pleasant about that trip at all.There was also no q

"Hah!"Elaine pursed her lips as she huffed. "It hurts to keep that money? That's the first time I've ever heard that crap. Forget two million US dollars—I would keep two gold bullions in my pocket even if it's burnt red-hot!"She then quickly added, "If it hurts you to keep it, then wire it to me and I'll keep it for you. When you and Charlie have a kid, you can use that money for their university fees!"Charlie was at once amused—only Elaine would have the audacity to say that when the two million would definitely have been spent to the last dime even before he and Claire had a child.Claire was aware that she couldn't count on her mother in regards to money and hence said, "Let me think about it… for now, my plan is that I will stay involved with the project to the end. Should it prove to be a success, I will keep the money. If it doesn't, I should at least return it to Miss Fox."Elaine quickly pressed, "If you're going to return it, you should at most return half. Let me have
