Chapter 5565

Author: Lord Leaf
“What do you know?!” Jacob looked at her with disdain, then said to Charlie, “By the way, Charlie, the Calligraphy and Painting Association will be holding an ancient calligraphy and painting exhibition in Aurous Hill soon. The standards of this calligraphy and painting exhibition are very high. The city is very supportive of this as well, so it should be a big move for our country! We might even invite the Central Oskia Media to cover the entire event!”

Charlie asked curiously, “It will be such a big event? Aurous Hill is not considered to be the base for calligraphy and painting, so wouldn’t it be too forceful to hold such a big event here?”

Jacob said, “It doesn’t matter if Aurous Hill is not the base for calligraphy and painting. It will be fine as long as Aurous Hill can exhibit outstanding calligraphy and painting works, so we are collecting works of famous artists from collectors throughout Aurous Hill now. Our first step is to raise funds internally. Our president and the oth

    Meanwhile, at Aurous University.The freshmen at Aurous University had completed their registration process, class placement, and assignment of counselors. The university issued orientation uniforms to all students in the afternoon, and the two-week orientation would officially begin in the morning tomorrow.Due to the paramilitary management after orientation started, both Vera and Claudia chose to live on campus. Otherwise, they would have to get up and gather at around six o’clock in the morning every day, or they would not be able to get to the university in time. The two of them were chatting in the dormitory while tidying up their beds and personal belongings. Since her family was killed, Claudia had become very cautious toward others and did not like to communicate with others. When she was in Canada, the only two people she trusted were Mrs. Lewis and Stephanie. However, Claudia, who was usually taciturn, somehow had a lot of common topics with Vera. No matter what they

    Vera was well aware that her headache was the sequelae of the last psychological hint that Charlie placed on her. There was no other way to deal with this situation other than to wait for it to recover slowly. Claudia thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and said, “By the way, Veron, do you still remember Charlie?”Vera was taken aback. She knew that Charlie had tried to erase the process of questioning her last time, but he had failed to erase all her memories of him. Therefore, she pretended to be curious and asked, “Is it the guy who came to see you off last time?”Claudia nodded and said, “Yes. I heard Stephanie mention that Charlie is very capable. Everyone in Aurous Hill who knows him addresses him as Master Wade. He seems to know Feng Shui and has some medical skills as well. Why don’t I ask Charlie to come over and take a look at your condition?”“Huh?!” Although Vera wanted to get acquainted with Charlie through Claudia, she did not expect the opportun

    Charlie did not expect that Claudia would call him because she wanted him to treat Vera’s headache. However, he recalled the last time he had seen Vera. He had indeed increased the amount of Reiki when he placed the psychological hint on her, and it seemed as if it had caused considerable sequelae to Vera. Charlie knew that it was because he had used too much Reiki on her, so he could not shirk his responsibility now that Claudia was calling to ask for his help.Therefore, he said to Claudia, “Wait for me for a moment, then. I will drive over now.”Claudia said happily, “Okay, Charlie. Call me when you arrive!”“Okay.” Charlie agreed and then said to Claire, “Honey, I have to go out and do something. I will be back soon.”Claire asked curiously, “It’s already past eight o’clock. Who is looking for you so late at night?”Charlie did not hide the truth from Claire and said, “It’s Claudia. Her classmate encountered a little trouble, so she wants me to go over and help.”Claire a

    Vera smiled faintly and said in a moderate tone, “You don’t need to tell me this as long as you can convince yourself.”Claudia could not hide her panic and said, “I won’t continue talking nonsense with you anymore. I’ll go down and wait for Charlie to arrive so I can bring him up when he is here.”Vera asked her, “Has your brother arrived?”Claudia said without hesitation, “Not yet, but I will go down and wait for him for a while so as not to waste time by going down only after he has arrived.”Vera stopped teasing Claudia and nodded slightly as she said, “Thank you, Claudia. I won’t be going down with you as I’m having a really severe headache. Please let him know on my behalf, lest he think that I have no manners.”Claudia nodded and said, “Okay, you can just wait in the dormitory. I’ll inform the dormitory manager and bring Charlie up. Charlie is very capable, so your migraine will definitely be cured once he’s here!”After saying that, Claudia hurriedly left the dormitory an

    After Claudia pushed the bedroom door open, Charlie saw Vera, who looked a little pale, frowning as she sat on the chair in front of the desk.When Vera saw Charlie come in, she quickly stood up as she spoke a little awkwardly and weakly, “Mr. Wade, I’m really sorry to trouble you to come over so late at night…”Charlie looked at Vera and said with a smile, “Miss Lavor, you don’t have to be so polite with me. It’s only right for me to come over since you’re Claudia’s roommate.”Claudia hurriedly said, “Charlie, you don’t need to address Veron so formally. You can just call her Veron like I do.”After saying that, she said to Vera, “Veron, Charlie is ten years older than me, and he’s almost eleven years older than you. You can just treat him like your brother and call him Charlie as well.”Vera was slightly startled. She hesitated for a moment before she addressed Charlie in a somewhat reserved manner, “Charlie…”Charlie smiled happily and said, “Since you’re already calling me Ch

    Charlie did not care about this.He knew that checking Vera’s pulse was basically meaningless. Her headache was not because she was ill but because she had been injured by his Reiki. The best way for him to treat her would be for him to use some Reiki to repair the damage to her brain. However, after Charlie thought about it, Vera’s origin was unknown. The fact that she had the deceitful ring proved that even if she hadn’t mastered Reiki, she must understand what Reiki was. In other words, she had grown up in such an environment, so she should know what Reiki was and should be able to tell at a glance if Reiki was used.Moreover, Charlie speculated that Vera most likely did not remember him, so he would be actively exposing himself if he were to transfer Reiki directly into her body.Therefore, Charlie’s idea was to pretend to check her pulse and then give her half a Healing Pill which was not worth anything to him anyway. Furthermore, Charlie was not worried that the Healin

    Vera was quite curious when Charlie said that her migraine could be cured with a pill.She knew that Charlie was the cause of her migraine, so she wanted to know what Charlie could do to cure her symptoms without injecting Reiki into her.Charlie then took out a Healing Pill from his pocket. This Healing Pill was the enhanced version that he had refined using the medicine cauldron from the Taoist Sect.Charlie looked at the pill and introduced it to the two of them, “This is a pill that I got by chance a long time ago. I dare not say that it can bring the dead back to life, but it can cure all diseases.”Having said that, Charlie was a little distressed as he said, “It’s just that I don’t have that many of these pills left, so I have to use them sparingly and take only half a pill at a time. Oh, in fact, a quarter of this pill will be enough for Veron’s condition.”After saying that, Charlie looked at Claudia and asked her, “Do you have a fruit knife?”“Yes!” Claudia quickly took

    However, Charlie knew very well that Vera was a girl who had seen and experienced this world. She definitely knew something about Reiki if she could possess the deceitful ring and be hunted down by the British Lord.What he needed to worry about the most was for Vera not to guess that he was the benefactor who had saved her in Northern Europe whom she had completely forgotten about just because of this pill.Therefore, Charlie said casually, “I got this pill through sheer luck from Antique Street. The pills are getting lesser each time I take one.”Vera guessed his intention as well and could not help but sigh as she said, “It would be great if you could buy some more of such a divine pill and keep it on hand in case of emergencies.”Charlie nodded. If he carried the Healing Pill with him, it was indeed true that he could save lives at critical moments. Jasmine had almost been killed in Japan, but she had survived because of the Healing Pill he had given her. As soon as he though

    Ramond replied, "I'm not planning on getting my name out there—I was just thinking I could start slow from one shop, but now, I'm suddenly so popular everyone's consulting me for appraisals, so I guess that's the short end of this."Either way, I'm planning to let things cool off by opening the shop late and closing early. That way, I'd receive fewer customers, and the hype will die down in a month."Once it does, I'll lead a slow life, which is perfect in Aurous Hill since it's how things are here. I'm not aiming to get rich or expand my business, and it's a comfortable life, so I plan to retire here."Charlie nodded. "The Rothschilds are relatively manageable, but I'm not sure if the Qing Eliminating Society is still looking for you and the Four-Sided Treasure Tower. You'll be completely free once they are wiped out.""And I'm sure with your abilities, Mr. Wade, that day will soon arrive." Raymond smiled and soon remembered. "By the way, you probably haven't had dinner yet, right

    Charlie was never one who covered up misdeeds, and what Jacob had done reflected his corrupted character and clear refusal to feel remorse.As such, Charlie naturally refused to offer any help, completely giving up and allowing Jacob to keep going off on his own tangent, tearing himself apart in the process.Still, Raymond did put a good word in for Jacob. "Actually, one can understand Mr. Wilson's motives from a certain point of view. I was the one who set him up so that he broke that vase, and had him beaten up so that we didn't arouse suspicion. He has every reason to bear a grudge."Charlie sighed, nodding. "There's no issue with holding a grudge or getting revenge—in fact, I have no problem with him trying to salvage some pride. However, what he did was unseemly, and he doesn't know when to stop."He didn't lose anything before Zachary exposed everything. Even if he had missed a killer deal, he bought it off someone's hand in the first place and made two hundred grand in clean

    With those words, Jacob didn't wait any further as he turned and left Antique Street, intent on seeking legal counsel.Raymond watched him leave before returning to Treasure Measure.He wasn't going to leave, but he had said so because he didn't want to waste much time with Jacob.Still, to avoid any trouble, he turned the sign outside to 'closed' before locking the door from the inside.That was when a man suddenly arrived, asking through the glass door, "Can I still take a look inside, sir?"Raymond was ready to refuse without even turning around when he realized that it was Charlie.He turned around and saw him standing outside just as expected.Smiling, he hurried over to open the door for him. "It's been a while, Mr. Wade!"Charlie was aware that Raymond was sticking to his identity of 'Raymond Cole' who had not been in touch since Raymond had been fired from Vintage Deluxe.Charlie chuckled in turn. "It has indeed. And you're a business owner yourself now, too.""It's j

    Jacob zipped toward Raymond, his attitude immediately subservient, "I'm sure you've seen what Zachary Evans posted on his Twitter page, and to be honest, it's so terrible that my position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association has been affected too. I mean, you've made a lot of money, right?"Hell, even if you donated ten million, you'd still have another ten million and 970 thousand in net profits. So, all I'd like to ask is for you to post something to disclaim Zachary's post.Jacob's words left Raymond in thought.For Jacob, just being suspected of fraud would definitely be terrible. In fact, his position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association would definitely be threatened—if not dismissed altogether—if he wasn't cleared of suspicion.Since Jacob was Charlie Wade's father-in-law, Raymond had reason not to drive Jacob over the brink.But that also begged another question—it must be under Charlie's intention for Zachary to post his confession, and that meant Charlie in

    Raymond couldn't help chuckling just as Jacob finished—he had honestly never heard of anyone who demanded a refund after donating to charity, but he was certainly seeing one now.Still, the receptionist was clearly experienced and slowly explained, "Sir, it's a legal clause of the country that all donations for philanthropy purposes can not be refunded under most circumstances—""It truly was a mistake," Jacob quickly said, cutting the receptionist off. "I was going to donate thirty thousand but pressed an extra zero by mistake. Please discuss this with your management—you just have to refund 27 thousand, see?""Sorry, sir," the receptionist apologized. "But it's a strict rule that we ourselves do not get to access the funds that have been donated into our accounts. Every donation will be screened extensively, and if you consider that there was a major oversight on your part, you may seek legal counsel to appeal for a refund. If the courts back your appeal, our organization will the

    Nonetheless, Jacob darted into Treasure Measure and plucked off his mask, asking nervously, "Excuse me, Mr. Cole? It's me… Jacob Wilson…"Raymond looked up, pausing for a moment before acting as if he was actually curious, "Mr. Wilson! What brings you here? Don't tell me—you want that bronze sculpture back too?""No, no, no…" Jacob quickly shook his head. "I would never… I returned all the way from Dubai to apologize!""Apologize?" Raymond smiled faintly, and he did not play dumb this time as he asked bluntly, "Did you come back because of Zachary Evan's post?"Knowing he couldn't deny it any longer, Jacob nodded, "Yeah…"Raymond nodded and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. I was the one who benefited in the end."Jacob wasn't quite keeping up—thinking that Raymond was just trying to be nice by telling him he didn't have to apologize, he quickly pulled out his phone.Tapping on it and bringing up his transaction records, he handed it to Raymond reverently, "Mr. Cole, I understan

    The cabbie chuckled. "You're a local yet you're heading to Antique Street right away as soon as you land instead of going home? And you're still saying you're not trying to pick up a killer bargain deal?"Come on, man—it's not just you, I want that too. We cabbies work ourselves to death only for ten thousand per month at best while our friend over there made twenty million in one night. I could keep driving cabs for the rest of my life and still not make that much money."Jacob knew that the cabbie must be talking about Raymond and became even more miserable then, grumbling unhappily, "I'm going to Antique Street for business—I'm not trying to pick up some missed bargain.""No? Then you didn't hear what happened yesterday?"The cabbie was immediately curious, and without waiting for Jacob's answer, he exclaimed happily, "Look, man—it was so ridiculous not even Hollywood would put it in their script. There were these fools who were trying to sell an antique trader a replica, but th

    It was nighttime in Dubai as Jacob dragged his weary body from the hotel back to the airport.As he was flying economy this time, he was left sitting at the hard bench near the boarding terminal, waiting for it to open.While he waited, his heart was torn as he tapped into the website of the Aurous Hill Charity Fund, found their donation account, and wired the entire 300 thousand he had made over to them.He had picked the Aurous Hill Charity Fund because the circles of antique collectors in Aurous Hill were all discussing how Raymond had donated half of the 20 million he had made to that same charity fund.After Raymond skyrocketed to prominence in Antique Street and became a star, it could not be denied that people admired his profound ability.However, there were also people who envied his skill in turning the tables just as there were those who were jealous he had made twenty million in a single night.Still, Raymond moved fast—soon after word spread that he had made twenty m

    Elaine quickly asked, "Well, what if you can't get it done?"Jacob was apprehensive even as he sighed. "If they really pressed the issue, guess I can't even stay at the Calligraphy and Painting Association now… We will see. If things get bad, I'll just resign. I won't ask for much right now, just as long as I don't have to go to jail."Elaine nodded. "Then you should try to reason things out with Raymond Cole or ask for Charlie's help if push comes to shove. Being humiliated is still better than prison.""Okay!"-It was nighttime at Aurous Hill by the time Elaine and Jacob arrived at their hotel.Charlie and Claire had just had dinner, and Claire pulled out her phone, saying, "I just checked my flight app, and it says my parents should have landed two hours ago. They are probably at the hotel, so I'll check in on them with a video call."She had yet to open her WhatsApp when Elaine called her on a video call.Jacob was planning to check in with Claire and Charlie to put their
