Ashley shook her head. "She has her own destiny, and her cultivation is far superior to mine. I can't mentor her." Although Ashley had successfully attained enlightenment with Curtis's help, she herself was not a genius in cultivation. Compared to a genius like Nanako, who had attained most of the enlightenment on her own, she was naturally inferior. Therefore, in Ashley's opinion, the direction of Nanako's development after enlightenment should be guided by Charlie, not by herself. Besides, she knew that Charlie was on his way back. She felt that Charlie would be very excited if he knew the news of Nanako's enlightenment. This could be seen as a little surprise that she had prepared as a mother for her son. That morning, many believers came to the temple one by one. Among them were people arranged by Ashley, and there were also genuine believers who rushed to come after hearing the news. At noon, the news that Master Jeevika would be giving a lecture at Aurous Hill's Qi Te
Julien was so excited that he didn't sleep all night. He got up before dawn the next day, dressed smartly, and took a helicopter to Ottawa. He planned to fetch Queen Helena from Canada to New York. In the early morning, Helena boarded Julien's helicopter with the Healing Pill Charlie had given her. The reason Charlie felt comfortable letting Helena go to New York alone was because of the Rothschild family's unparalleled power and influence in the United States. This influence was sufficient to allow Helena to enter the country stealthily without any third party knowing about it. More importantly, Charlie was aware that Fleur was inherently suspicious and cautious. Being in New York herself, she would never dare to confront the Rothschild family directly. Moreover, in the process of sealing off New York, the Rothschild family had unexpectedly integrated high-tech AI, significantly enhancing their security capabilities. Given Fleur's nature, she would be far too wary to take an
The more confidently and gracefully Helena maintained her royal poise without a hint of subservience, the more Harrison admired her. As one of the wealthiest people in the world, Harrison knew that many would bow to money, and it was rare to find someone who could still hold themselves with such dignity in his presence. Because of this admiration, Harrison felt an added respect and, struggling to sit up straighter, spoke, "Y-Your M-Majesty, i-it is a-a great honor f-for the entire R-Rothschild family to have you a-as o-our guest." With a smile and a nod, Helena said, "I heard that you had some health issues, so I came to visit you. How are you feeling now?" Harrison lamented somewhat dejectedly, "T-The doctor said t-that I-I had some sign of s-stroke. F-For some time in the future, I-I may have to c-c-concentrate on r-r-rehabilitation. L-Later, I-I will g-gather all members of my family to a meeting t-to officially a-announce that Julien w-will become t-the next patriarch. Q-Qu
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
This was also the first time Charlie had ever met Doris.He had to admit that Doris was a very stunning and alluring young lady!She was about twenty-seven or eight years of age with a slender yet plump body figure, captivating appearance, and a very mature and honorable manner.Sitting down in front of Doris’s desk, Charlie started, “I will not come into the office often, so I would like you to continue looking over the company on my behalf. In addition, please do not disclose my identity to the public.”Doris was aware that Mr. Wade, who was sitting in front of her now, came from the extraordinary Wade family. For a prominent family like theirs, Emgrand Group was nothing but a mediocre business, so it was normal for him not to manage it himself. Hence, she quickly said, “Sure. Mr. Wade, just tell me if you need anything, I’ll be at your service.”At this moment, a secretary knocked on the door and said, “Miss Young, a man called Gerald White and his fiancé are here to see you.”
The two announcements released by Emgrand Group completely shook the entire Aurous Hill like a high magnitude earthquake.When the Wilson family learned about the ownership change in Emgrand Group, they figured out why the collaboration with the White family had been terminated. It seemed that Emgrand’s new owner didn’t think much of the White family.Back to the point, who was Mr. Wade? He simply bought Emgrand Group that was worth hundreds of billions of dollars without batting an eye—he was a little too powerful, wasn’t he? Even the richest man in Aurous Hill wouldn’t be so generous!All of a sudden, a lot of wealthy families were about to eagerly make a move. They wished to establish a connection with the mysterious Mr. Wade while on the other hand wished to marry their daughter to him.Moreover, the announcement about Emgrand Group’s investment of two billion dollars for the hotel construction project also shook the construction and interior decorating industries in Aurous H
