Therefore, she said to Caden, “Master, I see that Mr. Wade is about the same age as me. Young people like us don’t need to be so old-fashioned…”Caden could not help but say with some trepidation, “Sonia, you should not neglect Master Wade!”Sonia was also a little indignant and said, “Master, it is your freedom to refer to others as ‘master’ as you wish, but the same goes for me.”Caden could not help but reprimand her, “Sonia, don’t be rude!”Charlie smiled and said, “Master Howden, Miss Letterman is right. This kind of thing should be voluntary. What is the use if you force her?”Caden sneered and hurriedly said, “You’re right, Master Wade. Sonia can just refer to you as Mr. Wade as she wishes, then.”Sonia, who was aside, was surprised and somewhat dissatisfied when she saw that her master was lowering himself and being so humble in front of Charlie.In her opinion, her master had always been very dignified, and she always felt that the leader of the Taoist Sect needed to ha

Sonia’s follow-up question left Caden at a loss for words. He could not tell his disciple that the reason why he had chosen to stay in Aurous Hill was because he wanted to stay here to serve and follow Charlie. Therefore, he could only say to Sonia, “Sonia, I’ve already devoted myself to being a master in the Taoist Sect for so many years. Now that I’m older, I just want to relax. The scenery in Aurous Hill is beautiful, and it also has a pleasant climate, so it suits my preference very well. I plan to settle down here for a while and try to see if I can achieve a breakthrough in my cultivation.Sonia frowned and asked, “Master, you’ve spent more than half of your time living in seclusion for so many years. Weren’t you in seclusion when Lady Acker asked you to come out? Back then, you told me that you would go back to seclusion after rescuing Lady Acker’s family, but you then came to Aurous Hill without saying a word. Why do you suddenly want to give up your position as the leader o
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 5437
Caden was even more embarrassed. He hastily coughed twice and blurted out, “Sonia, the reason why I invited Master Wade to come over is because he has a very deep friendship with me. Secondly, Master Wade also lives in Aurous Hill…” Sonia did not believe Caden’s words at all and said coldly, “Master, since I came in, I noticed that you’ve been very respectful to Mr. Wade. I believe that the reason why you want me to come to Aurous Hill is because you plan to pass the position as the leader of the Taoist Sect to me here and you want to prove your allegiance to Mr. Wade, right?”Caden did not expect that Sonia would hit the nail on the head. His face reddened as he said, “Sonia, to tell you the truth, I’ve devoted most of my life to the Taoist Sect, and I would like to do something that I want to do just for myself now. If you still regard me as your master, don’t make things difficult for me anymore, and stop asking me for an explanation. I will stay in Aurous Hill to cultivate after

“Medicine cauldron?!” Caden was stunned for a moment when he heard Sonia’s question. He was very puzzled as he thought to himself, ‘How did Sonia know about the medicine cauldron? Didn’t my master say at the beginning that this secret would only be known to the leader of the Taoist Sect and that this secret should not be told to anyone else? Why would he tell Sonia about this matter?!’As he thought about this, he deliberately beat around the bush and asked, “Sonia, where did you hear about this medicine cauldron? Why don’t I know anything about it?”Sonia frowned, and her tone sounded a little exasperated as she said, “Master, back then, your master told me that there is a treasure in the Taoist Sect. He told me that it’s a medicine cauldron with miraculous effects. He said that only the future leader of the Taoist Sect is qualified to inherit this treasure. Since you’ve already decided to pass on the position as the leader of the Taoist Sect to me, you should also pass the medici

Sonia said angrily, “Master, what’s the difference between you and a father who has lost his son telling his family ‘Let’s pretend that we never had a son’ after he goes home? Do you think it’s appropriate?!”Caden had an extremely embarrassed expression. He could only bite the bullet and say, “The medicine cauldron is indeed gone, and I have no way of getting it back. What do you want me to do?”Sonia questioned him, “I need to know where the medicine cauldron is and who has it!”Caden avoided her gaze and hesitated as he said, “Sonia… Since the medicine cauldron is already gone, what’s the point of you holding on and questioning me about it? What you should do now is to take the leader token with you and return to the Taoist Sect to carry out your duties as the leader of the Taoist Sect!”Sonia continued reasoning with him, “Since you’ve already passed the position as the leader of the Taoist Sect to me, it is my obligation to recover the treasure that has been passed down for th

“You!” Sonia did not expect that Charlie would reject her proposal so directly. Sonia, who had never been rejected by anyone before could not help but question Charlie with some displeasure, “Mr. Wade, I don’t know how the treasure of the Taoist Sect ended up in your hands, but I believe that you should not have gotten it through despicable means.”Charlie sneered and said, “Miss Letterman, it’s a little self-centered if you jump to conclusions without finding out what happened. Wouldn’t you know whether I obtained the medicine cauldron using fair and square means if you simply asked your master about it?”Caden, who was aside, hurriedly said, “Sonia, don’t be rude to Master Wade! Master Wade obtained the medicine cauldron in an upright manner! In fact, I was the one who gave it to Master Wade voluntarily!”Sonia was furious and asked him, “Master, the medicine cauldron belongs to the Taoist Sect, and you were just guarding it on behalf of the Taoist Sect! What rights did you have
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 5441
When Sonia thought of this, she said immediately, “Mr. Wade, I won’t lie to you, but I can give you a very generous reward as long as you’re willing to sell the medicine cauldron to me. This can ensure that you will have no worries about your food and clothing for the rest of your life!”Charlie smiled and said, “Miss Letterman, you can try to make a bid. I’ll see if you’re really generous.”Sonia glanced at Charlie and said arrogantly, “If you are willing to sell me the medicine cauldron, I can pay you one hundred million US dollars on the spot!”In Sonia’s opinion, one hundred million US dollars was a huge sum of money for anyone. For most people, it was an astronomical figure that one would not even dare to dream of. Therefore, she thought that it was already an extremely sincere offer. However, after Charlie heard the offer, he simply smiled faintly and said, “Miss Letterman, I didn’t expect you to be quite generous.”Sonia said expressionlessly, “My offer is only valid for t

Charlie smiled mischievously and said, “I’ll know whether you’re bragging or not once I try it.”Sonia frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”Charlie smiled and said, “Miss Letterman, why don’t you stretch out your hand so I can read your palm?”“Imbecile!” Sonia reprimanded Charlie sternly, “I didn’t think that apart from being a smooth talker, you also have such dirty thoughts!”Charlie smiled and said, “Miss Letterman, you misunderstand me. I’m not planning to take advantage of you. I just want to verify whether you are bragging when you say that you will never owe others favors!”Sonia snorted coldly, clenched her teeth, and said, “I will never brag about that!”Charlie nodded and said, “Miss Letterman, why don’t you stretch out your hand and we will know the results in a minute, then.”Sonia stretched out her hand in front of Charlie angrily and said, “I want to see what tricks you have up your sleeves!”Charlie smiled lightly and then reached out his hand and held Sonia’s

"Alright!" Trippy was at once fawning, tagging along behind Raymond like a little child.Around thirty people were waiting in front of Treasure Measure by now. The collectors came in twos or threes, and all ten numbers had since been taken.Before Raymond arrived, he had a brief look at the collectors' faces through the security cameras before walking over, and he was really relieved to see no familiar faces.Having traded Oskian antiques for years abroad, it was only natural that he was acquainted with some of the elite collectors in the country.He also knew that they were especially demanding with the quality of their collection and wanted almost flawless items. As such, the bronze sculpture which had been completely lost wouldn't interest them.Still, he was also a little concerned that amongst the elite collectors he knew, there might be some who were losing money and losing purchasing power in turn. If they happened to take an interest in the bronze sculpture on top of that,

Trippy grinned. "I mean, just look at my stall—ain't no way I'm getting any business here. Why not let me check out this item of yours? And see how interested they are? I'm really interested in learning and upping my game."Then, as if worried that Raymond would refuse, he quickly added, "Don't worry—I promise to stay in a corner and just watch."Still, Raymond could guess right then that someone must have sent Trippy to spy on him.It didn't matter whether it was Mick, Jacob, or Zachary either—they were all in this plot together, and one knowing meant all three knowing.Trippy was a gossiper in nature. If he was allowed to witness the whole process, everyone down Antique Street would definitely know before long.In fact, he could use someone like that right now, and Trippy had come straight to his doorstep.With that in mind, Raymond smiled, "Come join me if you're interested. It's not like there's anything to hide…"Pausing, he then warned Trippy, "But since you're going in my

After watching Mick's video, Jasmine's opinion of the man improved considerably.She was actually well aware that the decline of Vintage Deluxe was mostly due to Mick's incompetence.However, as Jasmine was now managing a billion-dollar company, she couldn't spare any time to ask many questions about Vintage Deluxe's performance. In her opinion, as long as Vintage Deluxe didn't lose too much money or ruin the reputation they had worked so hard to build, she wasn't interested in a regime change.It was the same mindset as Marianne Long, who begged her father to keep that lane full of food stalls in Hong Kong over sentiment.As such, seeing that Mick actually had some skill pleased her considerably.She couldn't resist checking out the comments of the video too.She saw that many were praising the manager of Vintage Deluxe for taking a tough stand against the scammer as well as how Vintage Deluxe's reputation was long-standing and without comparison.She soon noticed Jacob's comme

Soon, more collectors had gathered outside Treasure Measure even before Raymond showed up at Antique Street, with over ten of them gathered outside in no time at all.Since Raymond had only prepared ten slips, the rest left in disappointment seeing that they had no chance.Even so, the ten collectors who had gotten a number were nervous—save for the first man who had arrived.The details on the online sales post insisted that the price was fixed, and that first-come first-serve applies.If he bought the bronze sculpture, the other nine would have come all this way for nothing.However, if the seller decided to make it an auction, they would have a chance too, although their net profit would thin in turn. After all, they could have acquired the bronze sculpture for just 20 million, and that meant a solid 8 million in profit.An auction would at least raise the price to 27 million, and more would make it chicken feed.If they gave up at that point, it was a waste of a trip.If

Trippy naturally wasn't going to tell Mick everything word-for-word, so he said vaguely, "Uh, they were just being stubborn and refused to listen to anything I said. They kept saying that they wouldn't know until they saw the actual item."Mick got out of bed, staring at his phone as he mused to himself.This was getting a little ridiculous, was it not? A fool who was scammed, actually able to scam someone else? But if he really could sell it, wouldn't all their work be for nothing?With that in mind, he promptly called Zachary, who wasn't even up yet.Ever since he had started working for Don Albert, his daily routine was no longer the same as the days when he was a humble stall owner working on Antique Street, but a man of importance who slept late and woke up late.In the evening, he would be spending his time patrolling Don Albert's night entertainment properties as well as holding meetings with subordinates to decide on management policies and the like. That was why he wo

Seeing that Mick had a favor to ask, Trippy was naturally eager to seize the opportunity to get in his good graces."Don't worry, Mr. Crane!" He promptly replied. "Just leave it to me!"Returning to Treasure Measure, he went up to the first man who had come and said, "Hey, brother… Did you come to buy the bronze sculpture from Mr. Cole?"The man asked warily, "You know about the bronze sculpture?""Of course!" Trippy grinned. "I know all too well—it's actually famous here in Aurous Hill."Whipping out his phone, he played the short video that Mick had spent five grand promoting, saying, "Here—check this out!"Curious, the man took the phone and watched the video solemnly.The other latecomer soon hurried over as well and stared fixedly at the screen too.They watched as Bill entered a room with the bronze sculpture with Mick, the latter who checked it out and started commenting on it.The first man exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, it really is that bronze sculpture."The second ma

The other antique traders who were keeping tabs on the situation were left confused by Trippy's message.[Maybe even those out-of-towners know that Raymond is a sucker? So they traveled overnight just to see what happens?][I know Raymond is in trouble, but is it really worth traveling hundreds of miles just to watch?][Maybe they know he's a sucker, so they came to sell him more counterfeits?][Shit, that must be it! Suckers are rare these days, after all!][Damn straight! Just knowing that there's one in Aurous Hill, you'd be eager to come over.]Even Mick Crane who had just woken up and saw the message immediately sent a voice message: "Those conmen are just like flies flocking around shit as soon as they smell it.""Oh, but what they don't know is that Raymond has no more money! I heard he only had a few hundred thousand for the startup, and the bronze sculpture must have cost most of it. I'm afraid those people won't even get their gas money and toll costs back after travel

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A
