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?”

    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

    Upon hearing this voice, the three women looked around and saw that Charlie had already stepped into Sky Garden. The three women unconsciously had excited expressions on their faces at this moment. As they knew that Charlie was talking about Sophie’s brother, Rosalie and Nanako simply smiled at Charlie without saying a word. Sophie was overjoyed and quickly confirmed again with Charlie, “Mr. Wade, you mean that you can bring my brother back?”“Yes.” Charlie nodded and said calmly, “But he can only attend the wedding. He will have to continue with his unfinished punishment after the wedding.”Sophie subconsciously asked, “Mr. Wade, if my brother comes back to attend the wedding, will he return to the place where he was picked up or will he have to start from the beginning again?”Charlie laughed and said, “Of course he will start from the place where he was picked up. How can I let him start from the beginning?”Sophie heaved a sigh of relief and said gratefully, “Thank you fo

    At this moment, Jaime, who was walking on the land of Sandskirts, continued his pilgrimage even though he had a scruffy beard and was covered in tatters. Although he was dressed in rags, he wore thick protective gear on his hands and knees. He would kneel every three steps he took, then grovel before getting up. After getting up, he would take another three steps and continue to grovel, and the cycle continued. In the beginning, Jaime’s body simply could not bear such high-intensity movement at all. His body had suffered a lot. He had already reached his limit by walking three to four kilometers a day, which was much slower compared to the speed of ten kilometers a day for regular believers. However, with the passage of time and the longer the journey, he gradually adapted to this rhythm and gradually increased from three to four kilometers a day to the current seven to eight kilometers.He had traveled more than a thousand kilometers in more than five months.

    “Your young master?!”Jaime asked in surprise, “May I ask who is your young master?”The middle-aged man said respectfully, “My young master is Charlie Wade from Aurous Hill!”“Charlie Wade?!” Jaime was shocked when he learned that the middle-aged man in front of him was actually sent by Charlie to take him home.He looked at the man and asked in surprise, “You said that Mr. Wade has asked me to go back?”“Yes.” The middle-aged man nodded and said seriously, “The plane is already waiting to take off at the airport. Mr. Wade’s intention is to send you back to Aurous Hill as soon as possible.”Jaime’s eyes widened as he spoke up, “May I know why Mr. Wade is asking me to go back now when I haven’t reached the end of my journey yet?”The middle-aged man did not hide anything and said directly, “Mr. Jaime, your father, Sheldon Schulz, is getting married soon, and the wedding will be held in Aurous Hill.

    Charlie was driving Jacob to Thompson First when the latter received the text from Matilda.Seeing that they were reaching the front gates, Jacob promptly snapped at Charlie, "Charlie, stop the car now!"Charlie did so and asked in curiosity, "What's wrong?""Matilda just texted me," Jacob replied, showing the chat log between him and Matilda.Charlie was just glancing at it nonchalantly when he saw that Matilda's contact name was 'AAA July Florist'."Wait, why is that Aunt Matilda's contact name?" He exclaimed in surprise."I changed it."Jacob explained gingerly while reading through the text Matilda sent. "Her profile picture is an iris, so I changed her contact name to a florist since I'm mostly worried Elaine would peek into my phone.""Anyway, she's asking if I'm attending her wedding with Yolden. They would send us an invitation if I accept, extended to our whole family… what do you think I should say?"Charlie asked in return. "You're planning to skip it, aren't you? T

    Then, Matilda suggested, "How about this—I'll ask him before deciding." "I'll pass on inviting the rest of my former classmates too. They're too vain and love comparing, so I'd rather not have anything to do with that. Also, there are our Korean friends who have it together, and they were telling us to invite them if we were going to get married. We have to keep our promise, right?""Yeah—then, it's basically decided. Aside from Charlie, we shall invite our colleagues and Korean friends while we wait for an answer from Jacob."Yolden nodded and said, "Now, I'll talk about the honeymoon—cut me short if you have a different opinion."Matilda nodded, resting her chin on her hands and smiling. "Shoot. I'm all ears."Feeling a little embarrassed by Matilda's glowing stare, Yolden took a sip of his ice water before continuing, "My idea is to head to the States for our honeymoon after the wedding…"He trailed off, staring at Matilda and waiting for a response.However, she was merely

    "Oh, Jacob…?"Matilda chuckled awkwardly. "Just today, he offered to buy me dinner, but I said I didn't have the time, and I also told him about our wedding… So, we should invite him since he's aware of it.""Jacob offered to buy you dinner?" Yolden exclaimed in surprise. "Did he say why?""Nope," Matilda shrugged, smiling. "Probably just dinner between old classmates."However, she was actually smart enough to guess Jacob's intention even though Jacob was inviting her somewhere near campus. That was why she had also mentioned she was marrying Yolden while turning down Jacob, all so that he would give up on her.After she had managed to get over their past fling completely, she didn't want to give Jacob false hopes before she walked down the aisle.In the same regard, she didn't want to worry Yolden, and therefore, had deliberately discouraged Jacob.Be that as it may, Yolden was smart too.He knew about Matilda and Jacob's past and that her son, Paul's full name was Paul Jam

    Before Charlie had arrived, Jacob was still furious that Matilda would soon marry Yolden.After Charlie came, however, he was instead worried that Matilda would send him a wedding invitation.Meanwhile, Matilda and Yolden were discussing their list of guests.They had different social circles, but most of their friends were Stateside, and they only had some distant relatives in this country.Still, they had colleagues in Aurous Hill. Matilda had classmates too, but she was out of touch with them aside from Jacob, whom she often met.Still, as they discussed who should be invited, Matilda first suggested, "Let's go through everyone. First, our Stateside friends… I don't think we should tell them at all since it's a long journey, and inviting them would seem tactless. What do you think?"Yolden nodded, smiling, "I was just thinking the same thing. We're close with our Stateside friends and always keep in touch, but inviting them to our wedding might be a stretch. We'd just hit a wa

    With that being said, once Matilda was thrown in the mix, Elaine would suddenly become an African honey badger, with every bit of black air force energy that was implied.As such, if Jacob had managed to be brave and take that one step back then, Charlie would have tried to help, stopping Elaine from harassing Jacob or Matilda.However, the reality was that Jacob had to bungle the chance when Matilda offered it to him.That was why the best option was for Jacob to understand that he couldn't get together with Matilda now so that he would feel much better.And since he had always been a coward, Charlie's slight intimidation cleared his head considerably.He then sighed, "Well, that's just life—you don't always get what you want, and you should never try to claim what you couldn't. I couldn't bring myself to choose Matilda over thirty years ago, so not being together now only makes sense.""Now, I can only pray that Elaine never finds out… or at least that things don't get out of h

    Then, Jacob quickly pressed, "Dear boy, maybe you could stay a few days instead of taking more jobs. At least you could be there to stop my wife if she snaps.""Sure," Charlie chuckled, cheerfully agreeing to it. "Don't worry—Claire's returning in a couple of days too, and you'll be fine with us around. You're cheating in your mind, anyway…"Pausing, he then added a reminder, "But if she's really furious, just bear with her beatings and clawings. Live and let live, as they say."That left Jacob sulking, however. "What the hell! If I knew this would happen, I should have just taken her to court and divorced her openly! That way, I'd definitely make things work with Matilda. Yolden wouldn't even stand a chance!"Charlie had to keep a straight face. "Now, you're not quite right there—don't you know what would happen to your wife if you took this to court?"Jacob snorted coolly. "Elaine would just snap at me, hit me, and make sure I don't get a cent in the divorce. That's no big deal—

    "Fuck!" When Jacob heard what Charlie said, he was horrified. He nervously asked, "Matilda isn't going to come to our house to deliver the invitation, is she? If Elaine finds out that I've been hiding Matilda's return from her all this time, I'll be so dead!" Charlie, having long seen through Jacob, knew he would never escape the shadow and claws of Elaine. He shook his head and said, "Whether they'll invite you, I have no way of knowing. If you're worried, you can tell Matilda that you don't want to be invited to her wedding and that you don't want to go." Jacob sighed. "That's just a temporary solution. Even if she doesn't know now, she'll probably find out sooner or later. A lot of our mutual friends already know about Matilda's return. You went to the gathering too. But those friends are not really in contact with Elaine, so she hasn't found out yet." Charlie smiled and said, "Matilda's return to the country was at a pretty sensitive time. If I'm not mistaken, she came b

    Jacob then realized that Charlie was also driving a Rolls-Royce, and it was a more expensive Phantom. Surprised, he asked, "Charlie, where did you get this car?" Marilyn had prepared the car for Charlie when he left Scarlet Pinnacle Manor. He had driven it to Thompson First, so he had decided to use it today. Charlie replied, "A client lent it to me. You sounded urgent, so I drove it over." Then, he added, "You're something else. You're crying like a baby yet you're still in the mood to ask about the car. What's going on? Your friend said you'd cried twice already?" "That bloody Simon!" Hearing this, Jacob became furious and cursed, "He still doesn't have the slightest clue! He's such a damned fool! The more I try to avoid him, the more he keeps blabbering on and on. Argh, he's so stupid!" Charlie asked, "What exactly is bothering you?" Jacob's face instantly turned dejected, and with a long sigh, he choked up and said, "Charlie— Matilda— She's getting married—" "Gettin

    Things were a little different and unique in the United States, though. Westerners tended to approach marriage with greater caution. Many couples stayed together for years, had several children, and yet remained as boyfriend and girlfriend. Being together, having children, and raising them jointly didn't necessarily mean they would get married. In fact, it was not uncommon for some to walk down the aisle only after having multiple kids. Because of this environment, elderly couples in the West often limited their relationships to dating, and at most, cohabitation. Very few progressed to the stage of marriage. However, Yolden, like a young man in the throes of passionate love, had invited her on a trip, secretly prepared a proposal ceremony by the seaside, and gotten down on one knee with a ring to propose. These actions deeply moved Matilda and, at the same time, gave her an unprecedented sense of security. Now, Yolden had moved their wedding up a big step and set the date just on
