When Zachary rushed to Isaac’s office, his hair was in disarray, and his body exuded a mix of alcohol and perfume. There were even a few bright and charming lipstick marks on his face. Upon seeing Charlie, he hurriedly smiled apologetically and asked, “Master Wade, are you looking for me?”Charlie nodded and asked, “Did you enjoy drinking last night?”Zachary wiped his mouth, grinned, and said, “Master Wade, I drank quite well last night!”Charlie smiled slightly and said, “Since you drank well, it’s time for you to get to work in the afternoon.”Zachary stood up straight immediately and inquired respectfully, “Master Wade, what do you want me to do? Just give me your orders!” Charlie hummed in response and asked, “Zachary, did you come back with the other jade ring?”Zachary immediately said, “Yes. I already got it back! Last night, I personally put it in the safe in the room while I was still a bit sober!” Charlie nodded and said, “That’s great. You should go back and fres

However, he could only harbor those thoughts, and he did not dare to casually cause trouble before dealing with the Ackers. Thus, he could only turn around reluctantly and continue walking in the other direction. At this moment, he had no idea that Ruby had found a window-side seat on the second floor of a tea house along Antique Street and was observing him from afar.Just then, Zachary, who was yawning as he dragged his stall items with him, walked in from the entrance of Antique Street. Mr. Chardon saw him at a glance, rushed to him in delight, and questioned, “Zachary, where have you been? I've been waiting for you all morning and noon without even seeing a glimpse of your shadow at all!”Zachary yawned, lazily covering his mouth with his palm while making lazy sounds. After the yawn, he lazily stretched before saying, “Old man, I'm running a stall, not working a 9-to-5 job. I'll come whenever I want. Who can control me?”When Mr. Chardon saw Zachary’s seemingly provoking ap

Mr. Chardon was already familiar with the process this time. He unlocked his cell phone immediately and transferred two hundred thousand US dollars to Zachary. After doing that, he asked impatiently, “Zachary, can you bring the goods here for me now?”Zachary patted his chest and said, “Please wait a moment, old man. I’ll call him and urge him right away!”Mr. Chardon hurriedly reminded, “I only want items from the same source as the other two items. Don’t try to fool me.”Zachary said with a serious expression, “Old man, rest assured that I have been doing this for so many years because I’ve always relied on the word ‘integrity’. I won’t do anything deceptive. My superior had already contacted me and said that he would be sending another item over in a moment. Just wait a minute!”Mr. Chardon was suddenly excited and blurted out, “Really?! That’s fantastic!”The two waited for about twenty minutes when a delivery rider from a local express service ran in from outside Antique St

As he was still feeling disappointed, Zachary, who was aside, spoke up and said, “Old man, in my opinion, you should buy this jade ring as well. You will look very grand when you wear both jade rings on each thumb!”Mr. Chardon secretly thought to himself, ‘Since I’ve already told the British Lord about this ring, it’s good that I can buy a second one now. I can give one of the jade rings to the British Lord and keep the other one. At the very least, I won’t be left with any regrets if it’s something valuable.’With that thought in mind, Zachary said, “Okay. Since I’m fated with jade rings, I will buy this one as well. It’s still five hundred thousand dollars, right?”Zachary hurriedly said, “Old man, five hundred thousand dollars won’t be enough this time. My supplier said that this is already the last ring, and there won’t be anymore after I sell it, so it cannot be sold for less than one million US dollars.”“One million US dollars?” Mr. Chardon said with some displeasure, “That

Mr. Chardon knew very well that no matter what happened, he would have to carry out the mission assigned to him by the British Lord two and a half days later. With his strength, killing the Ackers would be a piece of cake even with the heavy protection of the Ackers’ bodyguards. However, he was well aware that once he laid hands on the Ackers, it would be difficult for him to escape unscathed under the official siege in Oskia. At that time, he would have no chance to extract more magic instruments from Zachary.At a certain moment, Mr. Chardon also considered whether he should seize the opportunity to capture Zachary to force him to reveal information about his superior and then follow the trail to find his superior, directly engaging in a deadly confrontation.However, he worried that making too much noise might leak information. The Ackers had an extensive network, so if they sensed anything, his core mission would likely be compromised. Moreover, he could not quite understand wh

Charlie said, “Let him wait first if he wants the goods. The police and banks have been cooperating closely lately, so you will get targeted easily if the source of large-value transfers is unknown, especially if it’s a transaction in US dollars. Therefore, you have to free up all the money you received over the past few days and tell the buyer that you will deliver the goods to him in a week.”Zachary hurriedly said, “But the buyer can't wait that long. He told me today that he can only wait until no later than dark on the day after tomorrow. Shouldn't we deliver the goods to him earlier? After all, once this opportunity is gone, it might not come back.”When Charlie heard Zachary mention that the great earl from the Qing Eliminating Society would only be able to wait until before dark on the day after tomorrow, Charlie suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He felt that since the other party had said so, the night of the day after tomorrow was likely the time when he would make a mo

Zachary was just acting according to Charlie’s arrangements with this series of performances. In other words, he was eating, drinking, and entertaining himself with public funds that had already been approved by his superior. The reason why Charlie asked Zachary to entertain himself and have fun every night was because he was worried that Mr. Chardon would be secretly monitoring Zachary. Charlie could not allow any clues about Zachary to be exposed before Mr. Chardon made the next move. As long as Zachary did not expose any clues, there would not be any changes on the night after tomorrow. Once the secret was exposed, it could potentially cause Mr. Chardon to take action earlier instead. At this moment, Mr. Chardon was constantly keeping an eye on Zachary, and he was even listening carefully to his conversations with the female escort. The more he observed Zachary, the more he believed in Zachary’s persona and everything Zachary had told him.In his view, Zachary earned money du

Mr. Chardon came over as soon as Zachary set up his stall. When Mr. Chardon saw that Zachary was hungover, he could not wait to ask him, “Zachary, has your superior given you a definitive answer yet?”Zachary shook his head, yawned, and said, “Not yet. They have been thinking of various ways to withdraw cash since last night, but the amount of cash withdrawn each time is limited, so it will probably take a while.”Mr. Chardon felt a little anxious and impatient as he said, “Zachary, I might have to leave Aurous Hill tomorrow night. We might not have the chance to cooperate anymore in the future after I leave.”Zachary had a regretful expression as he said, “Boss, the timing for tomorrow night is indeed a little tight. Why don’t you stay a few more days? Just wait for another three to five days, and you'll probably get what you want. If you feel bored, you can move in to Shangri-La with me. I have a presidential suite there with four bedrooms. I only use one of the bedrooms, so you c

Still, Jacob soon clenched his knuckles and pulled himself together. "It's fine—I'll just find another way of revenge. Whatever happens, if Raymond Cole dares to return to Aurous Hill, I'm not going to spare him. If I can't fight for my honor, how would I ever show my face in Antique Street ever again?"And without another word, he turned and left the dining room.Claire turned in exasperation toward Charlie then. "Please keep both eyes on my dad, dear. Don't let him cause trouble out there."Charlie nodded slightly. "Don't worry, I will."And with that, both of them cleaned up the dining room and stepped out together to find Jacob on the drawing room couch, sipping tea while watching TV.As for Elaine, she had a rare smile on her face as she sat beside Jacob, constantly refilling his cup.Then, seeing Claire and Charlie, she promptly beckoned, "Come, children—sit and have a taste of my tea."Claire and Charlie shared a look and sat down on the couch while Elaine poured them tea

Charlie, who hadn't spoken, had plenty of ideas in mind.He definitely didn't want to see Raymond humiliated in a rotten place like Aurous Hill's Antique Street—not when the man was a qualified hero, putting his life on the line to meet the Rothschild family and trade for the Four-Sided Treasure Tower.That was why Charlie's first thought was to call Don Albert and ask him to keep a close eye on Antique Street, preemptively killing the issue in the cradle before any saboteurs reached Raymond.However, Charlie also knew that Raymond would most likely refuse protection as the latter had seen action and was brave enough to fight the Rothschilds—and this was Aurous Hill they were talking about. He would be quite adept at resolving issues, especially one as simple as a handful of saboteurs.Hence, after some thought, Charlie decided to not get involved for now. Instead, he would watch quietly while letting Raymond deal with Aurous Hill's locals. As long as said locals—including Jacob—di

"What?!" Jacob exclaimed excitedly, suddenly on his feet. "That prick is really going to start a business in Aurous Hill? What, did he get sick of living the good life elsewhere?"In Jacob's mind, there were only two reasons why Raymond had returned to Aurous Hill.The first was that he had gotten so rich that he had come back to open a shop on Antique Street, to salvage some dignity after he had been fired from Vintage Deluxe. The other was the complete opposite—he had screwed up elsewhere too and had no choice but to return to Aurous Hill to make a living.If it was the former, he certainly wouldn't have hope for his revenge.But that was not the case if it was the latter!Meanwhile, Zachary replied, "Truth be told, I haven't seen the man in the flesh. But judging from my tip, he definitely wasn't doing well elsewhere, since the business he's planning now that he's back is quite modest."Jacob immediately laughed. "Hahaha! I see… He must have messed up out there and had no ch

Claire pursed her lips, grumbling, "Like you said, I won't tell Mom for the sake of peace. But you know very well that you shouldn't do that ever again!"Jacob nodded repeatedly as he promised. "Don't worry—I'll never do it again."As he finished, his phone rang on the table, and he looked down to see that it was Zacahary."That's weird," he murmured in surprise. "He's been hiding from me for the longest time, but he's calling me now?"Charlie was surprised too.After Zachary left Antique Street and started helping Don Albert's more unsavory business, he shouldn't have any reason to contact Jacob.So, why call him now?Jacob was confused too, but he ultimately answered the call.On the other end of the call, Zachary greeted him respectfully, "Mr. Wilson? It's me—Zachary. Do you still remember me?""Nonsense," Jacob snorted. "Why wouldn't I remember you after we've spoken so many times? I also couldn't reach out to you when I had all that good stuff before, but you're contactin

Meanwhile, at Thomson's First, the family of four was peacefully having dinner for the first time.While Charlie and Claire never argued, Jacob and Elaine were always either bickering or dissing each other, leaving the air around the table tense and awkward.But this time, neither of them argued, and they didn't seem to despise each other.The table was not just peaceful either—Elaine was a lot less bossy, even helping put food on Jacob's plate, having him try this and that, almost as if she was suddenly the best of wives.Jacob used to regard Elaine with disdain in every way, constantly lamenting how a great man like him didn't have a good wife.But with him being the way he was now, he utterly resigned to himself.It made sense that Matilda wouldn't be interested in him given his current state, and it was amazing that Elaine willingly stayed with him. That was why he no longer regarded Elaine with unconcealed disgust and disdain like before and was instead gentle and emotiona

Mick was left gritting his teeth. "Shit, that's true. It's going to be hard to pull the wool over Raymond's eyes—it has to be the best to actually trick him."Then, he sighed. "If there's someone who can do that, it'd be Zachary Evans! The man was a God back in the day!"The employee nodded. "Well, it's true that his replicas were impeccable… But the man has made it big time working for Don Albert, and we won't be able to ask for his help!"Mick shook his head. "No, it's fine. We're quite close—let me call him right now."With that, he whipped out his phone to make the call.While Zachary used to be humble in Mick's presence before, Zachary was now way above him on the pecking order.Afraid of being remotely disrespectful, he promptly greeted Zachary politely as soon as the latter answered, "Hello, Zachary! It's me, Mick Crane!" "Uh-huh," Zachary replied noncommittally before asking in curiosity, "To what do I owe the pleasure?"Ever since Zachary had started working for Don A

Raymond may have worked abroad for years and was a veteran in antiques, but he was still lacking when it came to reading between the lines.Taking Mick's words at face value, he promptly shook his head, "No, you really shouldn't. I wasn't planning to come back here to work, so you mustn't mention me to Ms. Moore either."And unlike Mick, he really meant what he said, while Mick was saying the complete opposite of what he was thinking.Naturally, Mick didn't believe Raymond, even presuming that Raymond was a liar like himself.The more Raymond said he didn't want to return to Vintage Deluxe, the more he thought he was.Hence, he asked despite knowing the answer, "Well, what are you planning to do now that you've returned to Aurous Hill?""It's been years of traveling for me, so I was just getting a little tired," Raymond admitted. "I'm planning to set up a small business in Aurous Hill, most likely here in Antique Street. That's why I'm visiting—do be neighborly when I set up shop

Meanwhile, Raymond had no idea that he was being targeted as soon as he returned to Antique Street.He had reached the middle where rows of three-floored buildings stood, the largest on the street, and where Vintage Deluxe was. It was not closed yet as tradition on Antique Street was for stalls to open in the morning and close in the afternoon. In comparison, shops opened later and closed later.With the difference of two to three hours, they could afford to have customers who had lower purchasing power or were just window shopping to stroll through the outdoor stalls. Then, when they were gone, customers with actual purchasing power would come on their own time.As Raymond arrived outside Vintage Deluxe, Mick just finished his meeting with his employees, summing up, "So, does anyone have anything to do tonight?"They all shook their heads, answering as one, "No!!!"Mick nodded. "If there's nothing else, stay back for overtime. Ask for some spicy crayfish and beer for dinner."

However, Raymond had accomplished the assignment Curtis had given him years ago, so he had no intention of staying at Aurous Hill and remained unrepentant despite Jasmine's pressure. That was why he could ask to resign without hesitation, even urging her to let him go despite the pain.That was why Mick was now worried that Raymond would return to reclaim his position as manager."Keep an eye on him for me," he told Trippy. "Tell me if anything comes up right away—I will make it worth your while.""Alright!" Trippy agreed to it. "Don't worry—I'll call right away if anything comes up."Once Trippy hung up, Mick gathered the handful of Vintage Deluxe employees.They were all his close allies he had groomed after he took over Vintage Deluxe. Even if Mick hadn't been succeeding in his business, he was succeeding in building his own forces. Anyone who didn't obey his orders had since been removed, and the remaining ones were basically his co-conspirators, embezzling a considerable am
