The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 650
Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “Thank you for coming all the way here to pick me up today.”Jasmine hurriedly replied, “Yes, this is my responsibility. After all, it is the Moore family’s honor that you are able to attend my grandfather’s birthday banquet today.”As she spoke, Jasmine hurriedly trotted two steps forward as she took the initiative to open the door of the co-driver seat before she bowed slightly and made a gesture at Charlie as she blushed and said, “Master Wade, please get into the car.”Charlie nodded before he got into the car directly without being courteous or polite to Jasmine at all.If anyone saw Jasmine, the famous and prestigious young lady of the Moore family, personally taking the initiative to open the car door for a young man, they would be so shocked that their jaw would be hanging out in the open.However, no matter which aspect it was from, Charlie felt that it was only natural for him to be worthy of Jasmine’s act of opening the car door f

In the car.Jasmine drove as she spoke to Charlie, “Master Wade, my grandpa has been talking about you for a few days now. He was afraid that you would not have the time to come and attend his birthday banquet. I believe that he will definitely be very happy to see you!”Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “Since I have already promised you that I will be coming to attend the birthday banquet, why would I break my promise to you?”“Mm!” Jasmine nodded happily before she said, “I think that the person my grandpa wants to meet the most today is you.”As she spoke, Jasmine could not help but sigh as she said, “I do not know what is going on with my grandpa. He has been talking about you continuously over the past few days ever since he went to see the genius doctor, Dr. Simmons, a few days ago. He also told me in secret that his greatest wish is to see you at his birthday banquet today.”Charlie was stunned for a moment before he chuckled lightly.He knew the reason why Lord Moo

Charlie smiled before he said, “This is the price they have to pay for harming others.”“Yes!” Jasmine nodded as she said, “These people should be held responsible for their own actions!”As they spoke, Jasmine had already driven her car into the Moore family mansion.At this time, Zeke, Graham, Albert, Liam, and Doris had all already been waiting in the Moore family courtyard for a long time. As soon as Charlie stepped out of the car, the group of people quickly surrounded the both of them.When Jasmine stopped the car, she quickly said, “Master Wade, please sit down and wait for me to open the car door for you.”Charlie hurriedly replied, “You don’t need to be so polite to me. I can just get down by myself.”Jasmine quickly replied, “No! No! Master Wade, you are our most distinguished guest today! I have to give you the most common courtesy. Otherwise, my grandpa will definitely scold me!”As she spoke, Jasmine quickly pushed the car door open as she ran over to the passenger

Sean’s loud growl attracted a lot of curious glances from the guests who passed him by on the second floor, wondering why the young master of the Webb family suddenly became angry.Sean glared at them in annoyance and shouted, “What are you looking at? Get lost!”The frightened guests quickly turned their heads and looked away. Sean, with his gloomy face, gestured for Cain to come to him.Cain sprinted toward him like a loyal puppy and asked diligently, “Yes, Young Master Webb, what do you need?”Sean pointed to Charlie who was standing beside Jasmine in the yard and muttered indignantly, “Check that dude’s identity. I want to know who the heck he is!”Cain looked curiously in the direction where Sean was pointing and was shocked when he saw the person, so much so that his eyes opened wide!Wasn’t that Charlie Wade?!He recognized the guy even if he turned into ashes!Charlie was the reason why Marcus, his precious son, had the words ‘pathetic jerk’ carved on his forehead by Al
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 654
Jasmine was so attentive and gentle toward Charlie, yet so cold and stern toward him, this was so insulting!Sean gritted his teeth in dismay and commanded Cain coldly, “I’ll give you a task right now. If you do it well, wait for awesome rewards, but don’t come to see me ever again if you fail!”Cain spruced up and burst out, “Alright, Mr. Webb, speak your orders. I’ll do my best!”Sean shot a ghastly glare at Charlie in the yard and said, “Later, think of a way to humiliate Charlie in front of Jasmine! Teach him a lesson. I want him to be embarrassed so badly in front of Jasmine! It’s best if you can make him leave this place like a defeated dog!”Cain grinned excitedly upon hearing Sean’s demand. It was the best chance to take his revenge! He blurted excitedly, “Okay, Mr. Webb! I’ll go down and meet him now!”He had done some investigations on Charlie. The latter had managed to fool some of the VIPs in Aurous Hill with his feng shui tricks that had earned him the title ‘Master W

Cain’s mockery was unexpected and shocking.The mockery not only targeted Charlie, but also the people who paid their respects to Charlie.Albert almost burst into flames of wrath when Cain came out of nowhere with his senseless insult. He glared at him and shouted coldly, “Cain Lloyd, do you have a f*cking death wish? Do you want me to carve words on your forehead just as I did to your son?!”Charlie realized the cause of this direct mockery the second he laid eyes on the outraged Cain.This man was Marcus Lloyd’s father.Marcus, the rich kid with his catchphrase ‘pathetic jerk’, the young man who had provoked him at the Champs Elys Resort which resulted in a miserable ending—Albert had carved the words ‘pathetic jerk’ on his forehead as directed by him.He didn’t expect to bump into the young man’s father at the Moore family’s banquet, let alone be insulted by him.Cain exchanged a hateful glare with Albert and said, “Albert Rhodes, don’t you be so f*cking cocky and bossy! Do

Cain said with an arrogant grin, “Mr. Webb brought me in! To tell you the truth, I am now the Webb family’s man. As far as I’m concerned, no one here has the power and influence to go up against the Webb family, right? The Webb family is so much more powerful than all of you combined! If you dare touch me, you are literally provoking the Webb family!”Cain looked very cocky and triumphant. He knew that by mentioning the Webb family, no one would dare to do anything to him.When he glanced around him like an almighty cock, he saw a black shadow flash past him suddenly, and before he could react to it, his face was slapped hard!He felt as though the sky had grown dark and starry after being slapped, and he stumbled backward from the great force. After managing to compose himself and stand still, he lifted his gaze and saw that the person who had slapped him was none other than Charlie.Charlie plastered a wide smile on his face and said flatly, “I couldn’t be bothered if you didn’t

Sean was extremely infuriated when he heard Charlie insulting his family, so he turned and rushed down the stairs to confront Charlie.Meanwhile, Jasmine glared at Cain and his swollen face in disdain and gestured for her bodyguards.She pointed at Cain when the bodyguards arrived and demanded, “Kick this guy out! Break his legs if he dares to come in again!”“Yes, Ma’am!”The bodyguards marched forward, grabbed Cain, and was about to drag him out of the yard when a chilly voice echoed from the house.“How dare you! Let him go!”With his hands behind his back, Sean walked down the stairs slowly, indifference and anger imprinted on his face.Initially, he had wanted Cain to cause a scene and humiliate Charlie in order to drag him down, making him look bad in front of Jasmine.However, he did not expect that Charlie would be so arrogant. He had slapped Cain twice on his face without any concern to the Webb family!This was not the worst humiliation yet!The worst thing Charlie

There were times when making a person despair to some extent could be a people-strategy.For example, when your distant acquaintance asked for a ten grand loan but you could only lend him one, you couldn't tell him directly that. It would make them think you were being insincere.The better option would be to tell them how you were worse off than they were and had a debt yourself, or that some other friend had borrowed money for three years and never repaid it.And when that mere acquaintance was in despair, you could tell them that if it was really important, you could lend them one thousand with a credit card loan.That way, while the mere acquaintance wouldn't exactly be awash with gratitude, they at least wouldn't complain about your lack of sincerity.That was exactly what Mr. Bay was doing.He had no intention of offending Jacob, but he also couldn't directly tell him to give up on claiming the position as president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association. Otherwise, Ja

Jacob felt absolutely horrible just then, and he certainly did not expect Don Albert to give him the cold shoulder.If he had known, he would have just stayed content with the 200 thousand he had made and enjoyed his trip to Dubai! If he had, the Calligraphy and Painting Association wouldn't have found out about the bronze sculpture plot, and Don Albert would still be on friendly terms with him.Absolutely regretting everything, Jacob got in the backseat of the cab, tears of grief almost welling up and out of his eyes.Then, noticing that the cabbie was quietly watching him from the rearview mirror, he turned his face aside, whipped out his phone, and called Mr. Bay.As soon as Mr. Bay answered, he asked, "How did things go over there? Have you sorted out Zachary Evans yet?"He was waiting for Jacob to ask Don Albert for help so that the latter would pressure Zachary into posting a statement retracting his previous claims.However, Jacob knew full well that there was no hope for

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6543
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
