Christopher turned pale, and he quickly stepped forward to reprimand Elaine. “Elaine! Stop trying to criticize and insult us! No matter how depressing our situation is, we are definitely better off than you. Why don’t you take a look at your own life instead? Your husband is a piece of trash, your son-in-law is a piece of trash, and your whole family is simply pathetic!”Elaine’s eyes widened immediately, but she simply replied in disdain, “Oh! Big brother, you are right! My husband is really nothing but a piece of trash, but what else can I do? All the men in the Wilson family are nothing but garbage! Don’t you already know this in your own heart?”“You…” Christopher gritted his teeth in anger.Good for you, Elaine. I was scolding your husband, but you actually dragged my husband and son into this?!At this time, Elaine did not give Christopher any chance to continue speaking at all. She simply placed her hands on her waist as she said arrogantly, “But don’t you dare say that my p

When Elaine saw that Hannah had already raised her hands as she rushed toward her, she immediately took a few steps back as she said coldly, “Let me tell you something, Hannah. You cannot afford to offend me, so you’d better keep your hands to yourself!”At this time, Hannah replied savagely, “I can’t afford to offend a stinky woman like you?! If I do not tear your mouth apart today, my last name will not be Queen!”Elaine snorted before she retorted, “My precious son-in-law, Charlie, is very good at fighting. I believe you have not forgotten how he dealt with the bodyguards you hired or how he taught your useless son, Harold, a lesson that he would never forget? Believe it or not, if you try and provoke me today, I will just call Charlie right now. I will ask him to come here and teach both of you a lesson immediately!”Hannah shuddered as soon as she heard Elaine’s words. She became very frustrated and felt as though all the anger and hatred she was feeling was already dissipating

After that, Christopher took Hannah with him as they left the villa immediately.The real estate agent who had been standing at the side also followed awkwardly behind them. Even though she also despised these two customers after listening to Elaine’s words, she had no choice but to follow after them because the customer was always the king.When Summer saw both of them leaving, she could not help but sigh and say, “Sister Elaine, your relatives are truly strange. Did they treat me as a fool? She actually dared to ask to buy my villa for eight million dollars…”Elaine smiled before she replied, “Well, they are going bankrupt soon. In fact, they are just a bunch of poor people with no money at all. I think that they may not be able to afford it even if you promised to sell the villa to them for eight million dollars!”Summer nodded before she said, “That is truly disappointing. Let’s ignore them and continue playing our mahjong instead!”***Christopher and his wife, Hannah, began

Elaine did not know that both Christopher and Hannah had already begun plotting to rob her of her assets and the luxurious villa at Thompson First that was owned by her son-in-law, Charlie.She continued playing mahjong at Summer’s villa with her friends until late at night, not even bothering to go home for dinner. The four ladies decided to order some KFC takeaways instead. They held on to the bucket of chicken as they enjoyed their chicken drumsticks and mahjong game. They could not stop smiling as they continued touching the mahjong tiles.Charlie was already done preparing dinner and was enjoying a meal with his wife and father-in-law at this time. Claire could not help but complain when she saw that her mother was not home at all. After that, Claire said, “Dad! Can you please start to control mom occasionally? You should try to stop her from playing mahjong and gambling all the time!”“Control her?” Jacob snorted before he said, “I do not have the ability to do that. Why don’t

However, it was a pity that he did it the wrong way. That was the reason why this filial son was now regarded as a beast by everyone.After two whole days of fermentation, the death of Masao Kobayashi, the chairman of Kobayashi Pharma, had aroused a great deal of attention in Japan.Under the vigorous propaganda launched by Masao’s second son, Jiro, Ichiro suddenly became the chief culprit who had poisoned his own biological father to death in an attempt to take over his father’s role as the chairman of Kobayashi Pharma.At this time, the whole of Japan was scolding Ichiro, for they thought that he was actually the most unfilial son in Japan. People even nicknamed him the shame of Japan!At the same time, Jiro also increased the cash reward for his brother, Ichiro’s head from 1 billion yen to 3 billion yen.He wanted to take over the position of the chairman of Kobayashi Pharma as soon as possible. Therefore, he had no choice but to make sure that his brother died quickly, and he

Jiro really hated Charlie to the core.However, he did not dare to offend Charlie.Therefore, he could only try to bargain with Albert.His tone was also very pious. “Don Albert, could you please convey my message to Mr. Wade? There are only about two or three billion dollars left in Kobayashi Pharma’s bank account, and many of our debtors have not paid us back. We also owe the bank several billion dollars in loan now. We are really under a great deal of pressure!Albert replied, “Mr. Wade has always meant what he says. So, don’t think that you can bargain with Mr. Wade as and when you please!”Jiro begged, “Don Albert, I’m really having a hard time now. Why don’t we do this instead? Tell Mr. Wade to give me two months. I will definitely transfer the money over to him in two months. However, during these two months, he must make sure that my brother does not say anything or show his face in public, let alone return to Japan under any circumstances at all!“Two months?” Albert tho

Albert hurriedly asked, “So, do you want me to kill and get rid of Ichiro now? Should I take a video of the killing for Jiro to see?”Charlie replied, “I want you to hide Ichiro somewhere and then find someone who can make special video effects. I want you to film a headshot of Ichiro and send that video to Jiro after having that person use some special effects to make sure that Jiro will believe that his brother is already dead.”Albert asked in surprise, “Mr. Wade, are you trying to save Ichiro’s life?”Charlie replied, “Yes. I think keeping Ichiro alive will be of great use to us one day. Perhaps I can even use Ichiro to get my hands on Kobayashi Pharma in the future. I will be going too easy on Jiro if I killed Ichiro for him, just for one billion yen.”After that, Charlie spoke again, “Also, you should not think too much about morals or your credibility when it comes to this matter. After all, we don't owe the Japanese anything at all. On the contrary, the more miserable they

Reuben truly could not understand why his grandfather respected Charlie so much.Lord Moore regarded Charlie as God. His reason was similar to Anthony’s reason for respecting Charlie so much. Both of them were already old men in their twilight years. The more they knew about their upcoming destiny, the more they were afraid of it.However, Reuben was not even thirty years old yet, and if anyone told him that he would be able to live for another five years after taking the magical pill, he would easily dismiss it.

After all, unlike Reuben, she also owned one of the magical pills given by Charlie. She had been hiding the magical pill in her car, and the only people who knew about the magical medicine was just Charlie and herself.

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6478
Soon, the video of Mick's staged act was uploaded to the online group, and everyone eagerly watched it as soon as it was done uploading.Mick certainly set a new bar with his acting as none of them could see that it was an act.Moreover, everyone could see that the bronze sculpture looked like the real deal, and they might have been swindled if it were them.As such, they couldn't help being impressed as Mick had easily seen through Billy's con, and he was the definition of a pro in that video.No matter how Billy had packaged it, there was no tricking real experts like Mick Crane. Just a quick glance and he had seen through that it was a postmodern replica, matched with a base from the Renaissance era to misdirect and beguile.With that, many fellow antique dealers changed their opinion of Mick.After all, Vintage Deluxe's business had been declining after Mick took over as manager, and people were presuming that his skills were lacking.But now, they were all shown that he had

"Amazing, Mr. Crane!""It's Mr. Crane who shines through, in the end! His eyes see through everything!""I guess Miss Moore made the right choice firing Raymond and appointing Mr. Crane! Mr. Crane is infinitely better!"Mick was immediately thrilled to see them fawning over him, and he laughed, "You flatter me—I'm merely sharing my personal perspective on this. In this trade, anyone who knows would understand how hard it is to get the good stuff in this age of technology.""There are plenty of people who hold ulterior motives and change their tactics knowing that there are always those scheming to get their hands on vintage treasures, so they just have to make it. That is how they started making counterfeits of everything, from scrolls to sculptures to statues, each of them so real just to trick those fools who think they could get rich overnight!""Exactly!" Someone promptly agreed. "There's never a lack of any such fools, and I just happened to meet one. I had this piece of jade

In groups like these, any gossip would immediately spread like wildfire as people share everything here with their other circles.Within minutes of these people's good work, Antique Street was abuzz even as the skies darkened: one of the antique traders had been swindled for 300 thousand, and it was Raymond Cole—the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe at that!Some of them wondered when Raymond had actually returned while others were laughing.He was supposed to be the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe, but he had messed up as well? You had to be kidding!Many were dumbstruck too—how would Raymond survive in Antique Street after losing so much money? It had been so long since such a major scam had been pulled!As such, all the antique dealers were asking one question: how did Raymond Cole get fooled?Meanwhile, Mick didn't leak the security footage right away, instead sending his people out to spread the news in other channels, claiming that Raymond thought he had won big by
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6475
Mick had already clipped the security footage and was waiting for Zachary's word.He had checked the footage repeatedly as well and was only getting more impressed with his masterful acting by the second. He looked just like a maestro, and every detail he mentioned was flawless and showed experience.Zacahry even said that Raymond had truly slipped up with that bronze sculpture, leaving him endlessly thrilled.The proverbial missing piece of the puzzle was here!Hence, calling all the staff he trusted, he told them excitedly, "Spread the word right away—Raymond Cole slipped up, spending 300 thousand on a fake Renaissance-era bronze sculpture!"His staff had no idea of the conspiracy involved, only that Mick had said that someone had tried to sell a counterfeit bronze sculpture but he had seen through it right away and chased him away, only for Raymond to end up buying the fake bronze sculpture soon after.Someone asked, "Mr. Crane, don't you think Raymond Cole bought from the man

Raymond had said everything he should and shouldn't and with complete sincerity exactly because Billy would never believe it.As Billy just wanted to swindle him, it didn't matter how sincere Raymond was—he wanted the 300 thousand whatever it took. The key here was that Billy had refused a better prospect when told it was possible, and there was evidence that would support Raymond if either he or Zachary realized the truth and came to start trouble.That meant Raymond had nothing to worry about—they could take this to the United Nations but he'd still win this case.Having been in the antique trade for so long, he had seen every form of oddity and was always cautious with people, considering every aspect of any issue.Hence, once he downloaded the security footage to his phone, Raymond decided that he needed to sell the bronze sculpture—not because he was in urgent need of money, but because he realized that there were those who wanted him out of Aurous Hill's Antique Street.Afte

There were those in Antique Street who made their living from swindling the average Joe while others swindled antique traders.In fact, it was already cliche for them to trick antique traders with forgeries, and it was not surprising that someone had tried their luck on the opening day of Raymond's shop.As such, it was strange that he had just started today without any hype or even a proper shop sign, but someone was already after him.That told him that he was being targeted, and Raymond was putting his money on Zachary.The sole reason for that was how Zachary had come earlier to ask Raymond about how much capital he had, and he had humbly said a few hundred thousand.The fact that Billy had come and immediately demanded 500 thousand made even more sense—he wanted to siphon all of Raymond's capital.Even losing money wasn't the worst part—the worst was being labeled as an amateur.When that happened, customers who wanted the good stuff wouldn't come to him, and he would find
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6472
Just as Jacob was celebrating fooling Raymond, getting his revenge, and earning 200 thousand on top of that, Charlie was left musing to himself on the second floor of the teahouse.He knew that Billy was a conman as soon as he saw him, but he didn't understand why Raymond would buy from Billy.Could the item really be medieval as Raymond stated?As soon as the thought occurred to him, Charlie was sure of it. Given Raymond's knowledge of antiques, there was no way he would mess up in Antique Street of Aurous Hill.While his father-in-law and Zachary had worked hard to weave this elaborate conspiracy, Charlie still wondered how they would take the news that Raymond had bought something worth millions for just 300 thousand.Meanwhile, Raymond watched as Billy left and locked the door from the inside before studying the bronze sculpture once more.He trusted his own judgment that it was a gilded bronze statue from the medieval era. He was playing down its importance since the bronze

Meanwhile, Raymond sighed unhappily. "I really can't afford four hundred grand—like I said, there's not much to offer here in my shop, which I've been investing a lot in. I'd have to pay rent to the owner soon as well, and everything would end terribly for me if I paid that much…"Billy blurted right then, "You said it's medieval and worth millions, didn't you? You'd make a fortune if you sold it!"Raymond sighed again. "Million-dollar antiques aren't that easily sold, and people would be especially skeptical with a small business like mine. I could sell it at an auction too, but that's only happening when someone decides to organize one, not to mention the troublesome appraisal processes it involves.""And right now, I just think it's medieval in terms of style, but I'm no authority in the matter. In the end, it's up to experts and specific groups that would verify it, and if I messed up, it's entirely my loss.""Even if I'm lucky and it's medieval, I'd still have to wait until th
