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
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
If Reiki was compared to electrical energy and this ring was compared to a battery, one would be able to spot the unusual aspects at a glance. A battery of the same size was usually just an ordinary battery, and the amount of power it could store could be said to be minimal. The pinnacle of the current stage of battery technology would have already been reached with just a few hundred milliampere-hours. However, the current condition of this ring was like a battery that had been charged with thousands or even tens of thousands of kilowatt-hours of electrical energy!So, it begs the question.According to the law of energy conservation, such a huge amount of energy could never disappear in vain, so it must be stored or transformed by the ring in some way.But how did it do it? Where was it storing all the energy?Although Charlie could not figure these two questions out, he was sure of one thing, and that was that the ring definitely was not a mortal object since it could devour
