The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 5299
Ever since Charlie had confirmed that the Schulz family had nothing to do with the death of his parents, he had never thought of taking the life of anyone from the Schulz family. He could even spare Sheldon’s life, not to mention Jaime.He had also asked people to secretly protect Jaime on Helen and Sophie’s account. The pilgrimage to Jordan Temple was not the same as Dylan cycling on a bicycle to Aurous Hill. The latter had a bicycle, and he would also be passing through the most economically developed areas in Oskia. As long as he did not pedal blindly on the highway, there would basically be no danger to Dylan’s life. However, it was different for Jaime. The environment all the way to the west would get worse and worse, and there would be danger everywhere if he was not careful. Charlie would not be able to explain things to Helen and Sophie if Jaime died on the way if he did not secretly protect Jaime.Jaime also knew that Charlie had not asked people to protect him because he

If Jaime could not pass this test, even if he could regain his freedom from today onward, he would not be allowed to lay his hands on the Schulz family’s assets. This was because Charlie wanted to find an absolutely trustworthy and loyal subordinate for Sophie, so there could not be any hidden dangers buried within this candidate. If Jaime had the slightest idea of giving up on this pilgrimage, Charlie would exclude him immediately. Helen and Sophie did not know Charlie’s real intentions. They could not hide their excitement when they heard that Charlie was willing to be lenient and give Jaime a chance. They hoped that Jaime could take advantage of the situation and agree.However, Jaime hesitated for a moment and then said, “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Wade, but I still want to finish this pilgrimage.”Charlie had an indifferent expression as he said, “Think about it carefully. The road ahead will be even more difficult in the future. You will enter the mountains, the plate

“Test?” Jaime looked at his mother with some doubt and asked in confusion, “Mom, what do you mean by that?”Helen said seriously, “It seems that Charlie’s main purpose in coming today should be to ask you that question, to see if you would take the opportunity to end the pilgrimage.”Jaime asked her, “What is Mr. Wade testing me for? Is he testing my sincerity?”“Pretty much!” Helen nodded slightly and explained, “Charlie’s style of behavior is very similar to his father's. Although I don’t know Charlie well, I know Curtis. What makes Curtis different from most leaders is his first prerequisite for employing people is not based on the person’s ability or background but on the person’s character.”After a pause, Helen added, “In his eyes, no matter how strong a person’s ability is, as long as that person’s character is not good, he will not make deep friendships with him, let alone put him in his career blueprint.”“But many people don’t care about this now, and many bosses themsel

Three o’clock in the afternoon.A direct flight to Hong Kong took off at Aurous Airport. Marianne, who was deep in thought, was sitting on the plane, looking out of the window at Aurous Hill which was getting farther and farther. She could not help but think of the details of her acquaintance with Charlie in Hong Kong.Although she felt inferior when she happened to see Charlie and Nanako walking together today, it did not affect her deep love for Charlie in the slightest. All she could think of was for time to pass faster in the future. She could not wait for the day when classes would start at Aurous University. She even decided to call Charlie after school had started to tell him that she had come to Aurous Hill on a business trip and then tell him that she had already been employed at Aurous University when they met up. Marianne was also prepared for the worst. She did not care even if Charlie was not happy after knowing it and wanted her to leave Aurous Hill. This was her

After all, the old man had traveled thousands of miles to come all the way, so the two of them attached great importance to it. Therefore, they had come to the airport half an hour in advance to wait to receive him.As the plane slowly slid into the hangar, Yashita’s hands were trembling out of nervousness. This was mainly because she was unsure as to whether Cadfan, who had a strong temper and was arrogant, would approve of her as his future daughter-in-law.She wondered what to do if Cadfan was dissatisfied with her and pointed at her to scold her for not being worthy of his son as soon as he came down.Sheldon noticed Yashita’s nervousness, so he whispered in her ear, “Don’t worry. My father did not express any dissatisfaction when I called to tell him about this matter.” Yashita said apprehensively, “I know Lord Schulz’s character very well. He likes to hide his emotions and is fond of very sudden outbursts, so I’m afraid that he is just holding back his anger.”“It won’t be

Cadfan, who had been a landlord in Madagascar for a period of time, had no idea what Yashita had gone through during this time.He only remembered that Yashita had had an arm amputated in order to save his son, and the shoulder-length wound cut off her entire right arm almost completely. However, Yashita, who was in front of him, was wearing a long short-sleeved dress, and her two arms looked intact and flexible. Cadfan was also an experienced person who had seen the world, and he knew very well that it would be impossible for even the best prosthetic limb to be so realistic and flexible. When Yashita saw his surprised expression, she was about to explain it to him when Sheldon, who was aside, quickly said, “Dad, it’s a long story. Let’s talk about it in the car!” Cadfan knew that there must be something hidden about this matter, so he nodded and got into the car first. Yashita immediately got into the passenger seat while Sheldon drove the car himself.After the car started,

After saying that, he looked at Yashita, who was sitting in the passenger seat, and looked very ashamed as he said, “Yashita, I feel very ashamed for giving up Rosalie for the sake of the Schulz family. I hope that the two of you will not hold a grudge against me...”Yashita turned her head and said seriously, “Uncle Schulz, I know that you also have your difficulties in regard to Rosalie’s matter. Besides, you cannot be blamed entirely for this matter. Sheldon is also responsible. If he hadn’t asked Rosalie to go on a killing spree to wipe out the entire Matsumoto family, you wouldn’t have forced Rosalie into such a passive situation...”Cadfan sighed and asked her, “Yashita, where is Rosalie now? I must apologize to her in person now that I’m back this time!”Sheldon replied ahead of Yashita, “Rosalie is preparing the wedding at the hotel. You will be able to see her when you go over later.”“Okay...” Cadfan nodded and asked again, “Did Charlie let Jaime come back for your weddin
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 5306
Cadfan’s change was indeed something that many people did not expect.He was a firm and arrogant person in the eyes of many of the Schulz family members, and no one had ever dared to challenge his authority in the Schulz family. Cadfan himself had never bowed to anyone in the Schulz family either. Still, he had the consciousness to change his ways this time. After he arrived at Shangri-La, he was accompanied by Sheldon and Yashita as he came to Rosalie immediately and sincerely apologized to her to beg for her forgiveness. He bowed slightly and said to Rosalie, “Rosalie, I treated you badly in the past and even betrayed you repeatedly for the sake of the Schulz family’s interest. I dare not ask for your forgiveness now but I only hope that you can accept my sincere apology...”Rosalie did not expect that Cadfan would take the initiative to apologize to her. She thought that Cadfan had never acknowledged her because she was an illegitimate child. Although she knew that he was he

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6481
That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6480
Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6474
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
