At this moment, Aman, who was over fifty years old, was dressed in a very elegant high-end suit with a sharp hairstyle. He maintained a good physique and did not show any signs of aging at all. He appeared to be around forty years old.When Antonio saw Aman, he immediately ingratiated himself deeply, just like a grandson eagerly awaiting a treat from his grandfather despite being the mafia figure who had just threatened to kill Charlie earlier.Aman remained calm as he looked at Antonio with a slightly condescending demeanor and said, “Antonio, you’re waiting here to greet me even though it’s so late. You’ve worked hard.”Antonio was flattered and quickly responded, “Sir, it's my honor to serve you, and it’s an honor for the Zano family.”He continued eagerly, “Mr. Ramovic, I've already prepared a sumptuous dinner. Please come to the dining hall in the mansion.”Aman waved his hand dismissively and said, “Whether there's a dinner or not doesn't matter. I ate on the plane. It's jus
However, after searching around, he found that aside from the mafia, hardly anyone in the United States with significant influence was willing to get close to him.The reason Antonio had caught his attention was ultimately due to his beautiful daughter. Aman had experienced multiple failed marriages, including a recent unsuccessful attempt to marry Helena. He hadn’t been able to find a suitable woman recently.Antonio's daughter, Jilian, was young and beautiful, and Antonio, knowing Aman's preferences, told him that Jilian admired him greatly. Antonio even expressed willingness to marry Jilian to him, hoping he would feel the warmth of an American home.In the past, Aman would have dismissed the daughter of a mafia boss. After all, he was a globally renowned businessman, and in his eyes, the mafia was dirty and vile. Marrying into a mafia family would have been a step down for him.However, circumstances were different now. He was viewed similarly unfavorably by Western Europeans
Antonio, though younger than Aman, was earnest and resolute in his desire to become his father-in-law. In order to please his chosen future son-in-law, he stepped forward and courteously whispered, “Mr. Ramovic, rest assured that Jilian has been eagerly awaiting your arrival. She admires you greatly, but being young, she may seem a bit shy. If there are any shortcomings later on, please don't take it to heart.”Aman nodded slightly with a smile, remarking casually, “I'm over thirty years older than Miss Jilian, so I'll naturally be more understanding and accommodating toward her.”Antonio was delighted and said repeatedly, “That's good, that's good! Mr. Ramovic, please come inside the mansion so we can chat leisurely!”Aman nodded in agreement and was accompanied by Antonio as he stepped through the gate into the mansion.As they walked, Aman glanced around Antonio's mansion and casually commented, “Antonio, Zano Mansion is a bit small in size, and this area doesn't seem to be with
Charlie smiled and said, “Don't worry. I'll have your dad kneeling to send me out this door in half an hour.”Jilian was completely speechless at Charlie’s words. Despite her kind heart, as the young lady of the Zano family, she had long been accustomed to life-and-death struggles. Therefore, when faced with Charlie's reckless behavior, she lost the patience to continue advising him politely. She said coldly, “I've already said what needs to be said. If you're bent on seeking death, then good luck to you.” As soon as Jilian was done speaking, Antonio arrived with Aman. Antonio did not notice Charlie at first, and his attention was solely on his daughter, Jilian. Aman, who was standing beside him, also focused his gaze on Jilian, clearly very satisfied with her appearance.Antonio approached Jilian and hastily said, “Jilian, hurry and greet Mr. Ramovic!”Jilian replied expressionlessly, “I don't know any Mr. Ramovic. I'm leaving now, please don't stop me.”Antonio's expression i
At this moment, Aman felt as if he had seen a ghost. He couldn't believe he would see Charlie, who was as formidable as a comet was in New York, in the home of a mafia leader!Since his last failed attempt to win Helena over, Charlie had become a nightmare in Aman's mind. It wasn't just because Charlie had ruined his plan to marry a royal princess, but more importantly, Charlie had slapped him repeatedly.Although Aman had a humble upbringing and suffered a lot when he was young, once he became a tycoon, no one dared to order him around, let alone hit him. Charlie was absolutely unique in this regard.According to Aman's usual temper, he would definitely seek revenge afterward and try to take Charlie's life. However, the last time, Aman had chosen to endure it mainly because Charlie was ultimately from the Wades from Eastcliff, which was much wealthier than himself. Naturally, he had some fear.However, what was even more crucial was that the powerful Ten Thousand Armies was backin
Decorative lights and illuminants lit up the extravagant Wilson family mansion.Tonight was the 70th birthday banquet of Lady Wilson, the head of the Wilson family.Her grandchildren and their spouses gathered around her to hand her their luxurious gifts.“Grandma, I heard that you love the Chinese tea. I looked high and low for this century-old Pu’er tea worth half a million dollars to present it to you.”“Grandma, you are a devoted Buddhist. This Buddha statue is carved from the authentic Hetian jade, it is worth seven hundred thousand dollars…”Looking at the nicely wrapped gifts in front of her, Lady Wilson laughed heartily. The entire ambiance was harmonious and happy.Suddenly, Charlie Wade, Lady Wilson’s eldest grandson-in-law, spoke, “Grandma, could you lend me a million dollars, please? Mrs. Lewis from the welfare home is diagnosed with uremia and I need the money for her treatment…”The entire Wilson family gaped in extreme shock. Everyone stared at Charlie with bewi
Ten billion dollars?!Charlie was shocked. His eyes wide open, his mouth wide agape.He knew that his grandfather was very wealthy, but back then, he was too young to understand the concept of money. He only knew that the Wade family was one of the wealthiest families in Eastcliff and even the country, but he wasn’t sure what his net worth was.Right now, he finally knew.If ten billion dollars were just pocket money, it meant that the entire Wade family had a net worth of more than one trillion dollars!Frankly speaking, at this moment, he was slightly touched and swayed. However, when he thought about his deceased parents and how his grandfather was part of the reasons why they had died, he knew he could never easily forgive him.Sensing his frustration, Stephen quickly said, “Young Master, you are one of the Wade family members, so the money is yours. Besides, technically speaking, it belongs to your father.”“The Master said that if you’re willing to go home, he will let you
The next morning, after preparing breakfast, Charlie rode his scooter to Emgrand Group’s office.He parked his scooter on the side of Emgrand’s parking lot. As soon as he locked his scooter, a black Bentley slowly parked in a spot across from him.He looked up inadvertently and saw a young couple getting out of the car.The man was wearing a branded suit, looking very handsome and smart. Meanwhile, the lady was dressed up in a flamboyant style. Although somewhat gaudy, she was considered a beauty.As it turned out, the lady was Wendy Wilson, Claire’s cousin, and the man was her fiancé, Gerald White.Charlie didn’t know why they were here, but he knew that the best way to avoid trouble was to stay away from them.However, the more eager he wanted to hide from them, the higher chances they would see him.Wendy caught sight of him from the corner of her eyes. She yelped loudly, “Hey, Charlie!”Wendy called out his name in a friendly manner, but Charlie felt goosebumps all over his
