Chapter 569

Author: Lord Leaf
Jake hissed at Charlie’s irrelevant response, “Do you think it’s funny? It’s actually an honor to let you work at the construction site!”

Charlie nodded with a laugh. “Alright, I know, I get it. I’ll arrange it for you.”

Jake was irritated by his ambiguous remark and chided, “Crazy!”

Then, he added, “As an experienced person, let me give you some advice. You are still young, go out and find something serious to do. You may still be successful in the coming days.”

“What? Did you think working in construction is an obscure job? No, it’s not. Do you know Arnold Schwarzenegger? He was laying bricks and started his own construction business. Okay, his business failed, but he became famous, didn't he?”

“Besides, look at the latest trends. TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram, and Facebook are so popular right now, you could register for an account and post some of your daily work at the construction site, maybe you will become famous!”

“By the way, I have a Snapchat account. Do you want to foll

    Everyone’s eyes started turning red, and some of them even cried a little. “Oh, Mr. Lee. Please don’t, you don’t have to apologize to us…”Mr. Lee plastered a warm smile on his face. “I’ve been through thick and thin for all my life, I’ve witnessed your growth, I’ve witnessed the development of the country. I have nothing much to say but this, ‘be contented with a simple and virtuous life, delight in wisdom’. I’m still a poor old man after years of teaching, but my lifetime ideology is to live happily and be content with no regrets!”Loud applause shook the classroom. Everyone cheered, especially Jacob. He felt that Mr. Lee was the beacon to show the way after hearing what he said.Although he didn’t have much money, indulging himself in the antiques and cultural relics was his way to pursue happiness, so he was glad about it.Of course, there was still a source of pain in his life, and that was Elaine.Mr. Lee shuddered slightly as he gave everyone a lecture about ancient languag

    Soon, everyone hopped into multiple cars and went to Glorious Club.Mr. Lee was hesitant to go, but since it was rare for them to get together and his students had invited him to join them enthusiastically, he agreed.Charlie and Jacob hopped into a taxi together. Jacob whined angrily, “That Aaron Philips is too much! Why can’t he just leave me alone? Argh, d*mn, I’m pissed!”Charlie chuckled at his whining and said, “Dad, if you’re so upset, let’s just go home then.”“No!” Jacob muttered, “I haven’t been to the clubhouse, I want to go and see!”Charlie shrugged and nodded.When they arrived at the clubhouse, everyone gathered in the lobby. They were mesmerized and amazed at the luxurious decorations of the clubhouse.The extremely expensive and sophisticated interior design of the clubhouse had exceeded these elderly people’s imagination and their memories about a recreation center. Jacob was equally amazed. He pointed his phone around the lobby and took multiple pictures, ev

    The receptionist said with an apologetic expression, “Sir, I’m so sorry, all our suites on the seventh floor are fully booked. We’ve checked, but the only available suites for your membership level are on the third floor and below. Would you like us to prepare a suite for you on the third floor?”Jake hissed irritably, “What? Are you serious? You want me to go to the third floor? This is a disgrace to my status and my membership! How will others think of me if I go to the third floor?”“I’m very sorry, sir, but there’s nothing I can do. All the suites on the fourth to the seventh floors have been reserved in advance. You did not make any reservation, so, our hands are tied…”“If so, just give me a free upgrade and let me go to the eighth floor or above!”“I’m sorry, sir,” the receptionist said in a polite yet firm tone, “At the Glorious Club, we only allow downgrade service for the membership tier, but not upgrade. That is to say, if the ceiling of your Silver card membership only

    Albert was at The Heaven Springs at this time.Donald, the wealthiest and most powerful man in the South Region had reserved the Diamond Box in The Heaven Springs tonight as he prepared to entertain the head of some of the most prestigious families in Aurous Hill.Albert knew that the Webb family was even wealthier and more powerful than the Moore family. Therefore, he did not dare to neglect Donald’s orders and personally supervised the chef who was preparing the dishes in The Heaven Springs.As he was arranging for the food preparations, he suddenly received a phone call from Jake. At this time, he asked impatiently, “Yes, what do you want? Hurry up and speak! I am busy over here.”In Albert’s eyes, Jake was nothing more than his lapdog. He did not care about Jake the slightest bit because he had so many lap dogs around him anyway.Jake knew that he could not afford to offend Albert. Therefore, he said humbly, “Don Albert, I am at the Glorious Club at the moment. I would like to

    He was asking Albert to come here? Wasn’t he seeking death for himself?He had initially wanted him to bask in his joy and sorrows, but it seemed that he wanted to continue pretending that he was very cool. Now, it seemed as though this son-in-law had indeed cut off his own chances of living because he was pretending to be very cool himself.Jake did not know that he had already dug his own grave. Moreover, he was even being complimented by so many people. At this time, Jake walked up to Charlie before he smiled and said arrogantly, “Charlie, you’ve offended me just now. Therefore, the opportunity to go to the eighth floor of the Glorious Club has nothing to do with you anymore. You can leave with your father-in-law now.”Jacob glared at Jake with an ugly expression on his face as he said, “Hey, Jake! Don’t you think that you are being a little too much? Did you actually think that I came here to eat and drink with you for free? I am here to meet up with my old classmates!”Jake cu

    Aaron was furious when he heard Charlie’s words.He glared at Charlie contemptuously before he said, “You are hilarious. My son-in-law is so filial toward me. Why would he ever hit me?”After he was done talking, Aaron pointed at Jake before he said arrogantly, “Let me tell you something. My son-in-law is so many times better than your trashy son-in-law! Do you know how much pocket money my filial son-in-law gives to me every month? He gives me pocket money of one hundred thousand dollars every month! I am not despising or looking down on you, but can you even make one hundred thousand dollars a year?”Jake sneered before he said, “Charlie, you are truly very brave! Don Albert will be here soon. If you don’t leave now, do you believe that I will get Don Albert to tear your mouth apart later?”“Are you really going to make Albert tear my mouth apart?” Charlie asked as he stared at Jake with a look of disbelief on his face.Jake sneered before he said, “What? You don’t believe it? D

    He had no idea what was going on now.He did not know why Albert was giving Charlie so much face. Wasn’t Charlie just the useless son-in-law of his father-in-law’s old classmate?His father-in-law’s old classmate was just a pathetic and useless person. So, his son-in-law would also naturally be just another pathetic piece of trash!Why was Albert attaching so much importance to this useless piece of trash?Before he could figure out the reason, Albert had already given him a tight slap across his face!Slap!Jake felt a little dizzy, and his cheek swelled up immediately.“Don Albert, what are you…”Jake trembled in shock as he asked, “Don Albert, did I do something wrong?”Albert gritted his teeth before he cursed and said, “You are nothing more than a lapdog, but you actually dared to offend Mr. Wade? You must already be tired of living, aren’t you? Okay, then! I will drag you to my dog farm, chop you up, and feed you to the dogs today!”Jake felt as though his head was goin

    ”You…you…”Aaron was so mad and furious at his son-in-law, Jake, that his chest was rising and falling violently at this time.He never would have dreamt that the son-in-law he had always loved and admired would suddenly become a vicious jackass who wanted him dead!He shuddered as he cursed out loud, “Jake! I must have been blind to allow my daughter to marry an ungrateful brat like you!”Why would Jake care about the fact that Aaron was his father-in-law now?He was even more afraid that Charlie and Albert were truly going to kill him! He would really lose everything then!If someone had to pay the price and die today, Jake would rather the victim be his father-in-law than himself!After all, today’s events had all been caused by that old man. If he had not asked him to cause trouble for Jacob and his son-in-law, Charlie, why would he have even ended up in this situation now?Therefore, Jake pointed his finger at Aaron before saying, “Aaron, you old dog!

    Pausing, Charlie then said, "I'll call Steve to drop by later too. I'm sure folks in Aurous Hill won't know him, but your potential troublemaker might.""I-Is that really fine?" Yolden blurted."What's not fine about it?" Charlie chuckled. "He has been treated like a tool ever since he came to Aurous Hill, and now that he has a chance to strut about, he wouldn't ask for more."Yolden appeared slightly relieved at that, and Charlie asked, "By the way, where's Paul, Matilda, and Autumn?""Getting their makeup done," Yolden replied. "Paul's my best man while Autumn's the maid of honor.""Good," Charlie nodded with a grin. "Don't worry—the wedding's going to be a success."As they spoke, Matilda stepped out of the dressing room in a stark-white wedding dress, flanked by Autumn and Paul.Seeing Charlie, Autumn nodded politely, "Good morning, Mr. Wade."As Charlie nodded in turn, Paul started, "G-Good morning… Mr. Wade…"Seeing that he was nervous and tentative, Charlie knew that he

    As Yolden and Matilda were remarrying after living abroad for years, the wedding ceremony was much simpler, skipping Oskian customs and having a simple wedding reception for their guests at the hotel hall.There weren't that many guests either—aside from their children and close friends, only a handful of Yolden's colleagues at Aurous Hill University were invited.As the celebrant, Charlie didn't have much to do and was mainly the emcee.He brought along his jacket as he headed out to Shangri-La, not wearing it immediately so that Claire wouldn't guess that he was attending Matilda's wedding.Arriving at the Hanging Gardens before the guests were supposed to arrive, he found Yolden working with the staff to finalize the preparations.Seeing Charlie, Yolden approached him and said, "Thanks for coming this early, Charlie."Noticing that he was a little tired, Charlie asked in concern, "Had a bad night?"Yolden nodded, sighing, "Paul's uncle caused a huge mess.

    Tarlon nodded. "How do you suggest we find them?"Fleur scowled. "There's no rush. There are things which I'm still confused about, so just keep a close eye on the Ackers and the Wades for the time being. Report to me right away if anything important comes up—don't afford our enemies any opportunities to exploit.""Yes, milady!" -The next day, more news outlets were covering the joint project between the Ackers and the Wades as word continued to spread.However, neither family revealed too many details, be it the name of the company, who was the CEO, or the scale of their business.While the public was dying with curiosity, nothing else was known.Still, Aurous Hill's officials were especially interested, with the town hall visiting the Ackers the next day and showing utmost sincerity by leasing a whopping 2-million-square-meter land along the southern highway. Still, the condition was for the Ackers to come true on their promise to propel the city's economy to 15 billion US d

    Fleur had repeatedly mentioned the conspiracy theory of Ashley using a body double over the last twenty years.Tarlon had investigated from many different angles, but everything from the gender, age, dental records, to body figure pointed to the fact that the deceased was Ashley Acker.And yet, Fleur had never bought it, insisting that Curtis was prepared for them just because Curtis' son had gone missing soon after.There was no way Curtis would save his son but not his wife, and the disfigured corpse only added fuel to Fleur's suspicion.Thus, over the last twenty years, Fleur had kept a close eye on the Ackers, arranging for two 'scholars' to be embedded amongst their ranks as sleeper agents. She went that far all to determine if Ashley was dead or had faked her death.However, the scholars had since been killed in action, and they had no spies within the Ackers left.As for Tarlon, he still doubted Fleur's theory even now, but he remained respectful as he spoke, "Milady, I mu

    Meanwhile, on the edge of the South Pole, Tarlon Griffin rushed outside of Fleur Griffin's room, knocking the door gingerly as he announced, "I have news, my lady!"Fleur didn't respond, but the thick wooden door between them slowly opened as if pushed by an invisible force.Tarlon entered to find Fleur seated on the floor with her legs crossed at the ankles. Her eyes remained closed as she molded her Reiki, asking, "What is it?"Tarlon quickly answered, "News from Oskia. The Ackers are partnering with the Wades on a joint venture into electric-powered vehicles."Fleur slowly opened her eyes, asking quietly, "And you're telling me because?"Tarlon quickly explained, "It just came out of the blue, so I thought I should report it to you right away."Fleur sighed. "After I tried and failed to wipe out the Ackers so many times, they wouldn't dare set foot stateside. If anything, they must have decided to seek asylum in Oskia by offering a substantial investment, and it's a base whe

    Silent for a while, Matilda then asked Yolden, "Do you think I can do it?""Yes!" Yolden nodded without hesitation. "You definitely won't have any problems!"Matilda sighed, shaking her head. "We traveled far abroad to study while we were young, but we didn't return to Oskia to help the country's development. It's been thirty years since, and now that we have returned to the country at the same time, I definitely wouldn't turn down such an opportunity to help."Pausing, she then said, "That said, major corporations make it a point to not hire family members. Forget spouses—employees aren't allowed to date, and one of the two will be asked to resign if necessary."Don't you think it's inappropriate since we are legally married, having gotten our certificate and all? And if we set these precedents, we would have trouble asking other employees to follow that policy. You are going to be a CEO, so you need a very clear answer on this issue."Yolden shrugged. "In the first place, that p

    Yolden nodded slightly. "He does.""My gosh…" Matilda murmured. "That's too much… Ashley's son? A member of the Acker family and the Wades?!"Pausing, she then asked in confusion, "Wait, if Charlie has so much power and influence, why would he permanently reside in Aurous Hill… No, why would he be content as Jacob Wilson's son-in-law? Does Jacob know who he really is?""Definitely not," Yolden shook his head. "There were some compelling circumstances, and his identity is a sensitive one. That's why I'm asking you to tell no one except Paul—and even then, you should only tell him if he can keep the secret."Matilda was sharp enough to pick up on the reasoning, too. "Charlie's hiding because of his parents' accident, isn't he?""Yes," Yolden sighed. "He has his plans, but I didn't pry since I can only do that much, let alone help him on that.""Got it," Matilda nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry. My lips are sealed… And you just said you're resigning? Are you going to help with this e

    "That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega

    In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega
