The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 651
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

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 658
Sean sneered in disdain. “Jasmine, don’t say I didn’t warn you. This guy insulted the Webb family and bit our dog. Even if Lord Moore comes to talk it out, we won’t let him off so easily!”Then, he pointed at Cain and shouted to Charlie, “I’ll forgive you temporarily if you kneel before my dog and apologize, and then kneel before me and apologize again!”Cain was over the moon when he heard it. He would wag his tail if he had one!He was thankful that Sean had stood up for him after he had been slapped twice! So, while covering his swollen cheek, he strode to Charlie and said arrogantly, “You heard him, right? Kneel before me right now!!”Charlie snorted contemptuously, and then, in a split second, he stretched his arm out, grabbed Cain’s neck, and lifted him upward!Sean watched the scene with wide eyes, completely dumbfounded!Never did he expect that Charlie could lift a 150-pound man with one arm, his feet suspended off the ground!Cain could only feel a strong force strangl

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6481
That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6478
Soon, the video of Mick's staged act was uploaded to the online group, and everyone eagerly watched it as soon as it was done uploading.Mick certainly set a new bar with his acting as none of them could see that it was an act.Moreover, everyone could see that the bronze sculpture looked like the real deal, and they might have been swindled if it were them.As such, they couldn't help being impressed as Mick had easily seen through Billy's con, and he was the definition of a pro in that video.No matter how Billy had packaged it, there was no tricking real experts like Mick Crane. Just a quick glance and he had seen through that it was a postmodern replica, matched with a base from the Renaissance era to misdirect and beguile.With that, many fellow antique dealers changed their opinion of Mick.After all, Vintage Deluxe's business had been declining after Mick took over as manager, and people were presuming that his skills were lacking.But now, they were all shown that he had

"Amazing, Mr. Crane!""It's Mr. Crane who shines through, in the end! His eyes see through everything!""I guess Miss Moore made the right choice firing Raymond and appointing Mr. Crane! Mr. Crane is infinitely better!"Mick was immediately thrilled to see them fawning over him, and he laughed, "You flatter me—I'm merely sharing my personal perspective on this. In this trade, anyone who knows would understand how hard it is to get the good stuff in this age of technology.""There are plenty of people who hold ulterior motives and change their tactics knowing that there are always those scheming to get their hands on vintage treasures, so they just have to make it. That is how they started making counterfeits of everything, from scrolls to sculptures to statues, each of them so real just to trick those fools who think they could get rich overnight!""Exactly!" Someone promptly agreed. "There's never a lack of any such fools, and I just happened to meet one. I had this piece of jade

In groups like these, any gossip would immediately spread like wildfire as people share everything here with their other circles.Within minutes of these people's good work, Antique Street was abuzz even as the skies darkened: one of the antique traders had been swindled for 300 thousand, and it was Raymond Cole—the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe at that!Some of them wondered when Raymond had actually returned while others were laughing.He was supposed to be the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe, but he had messed up as well? You had to be kidding!Many were dumbstruck too—how would Raymond survive in Antique Street after losing so much money? It had been so long since such a major scam had been pulled!As such, all the antique dealers were asking one question: how did Raymond Cole get fooled?Meanwhile, Mick didn't leak the security footage right away, instead sending his people out to spread the news in other channels, claiming that Raymond thought he had won big by
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6475
Mick had already clipped the security footage and was waiting for Zachary's word.He had checked the footage repeatedly as well and was only getting more impressed with his masterful acting by the second. He looked just like a maestro, and every detail he mentioned was flawless and showed experience.Zacahry even said that Raymond had truly slipped up with that bronze sculpture, leaving him endlessly thrilled.The proverbial missing piece of the puzzle was here!Hence, calling all the staff he trusted, he told them excitedly, "Spread the word right away—Raymond Cole slipped up, spending 300 thousand on a fake Renaissance-era bronze sculpture!"His staff had no idea of the conspiracy involved, only that Mick had said that someone had tried to sell a counterfeit bronze sculpture but he had seen through it right away and chased him away, only for Raymond to end up buying the fake bronze sculpture soon after.Someone asked, "Mr. Crane, don't you think Raymond Cole bought from the man
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6474
Raymond had said everything he should and shouldn't and with complete sincerity exactly because Billy would never believe it.As Billy just wanted to swindle him, it didn't matter how sincere Raymond was—he wanted the 300 thousand whatever it took. The key here was that Billy had refused a better prospect when told it was possible, and there was evidence that would support Raymond if either he or Zachary realized the truth and came to start trouble.That meant Raymond had nothing to worry about—they could take this to the United Nations but he'd still win this case.Having been in the antique trade for so long, he had seen every form of oddity and was always cautious with people, considering every aspect of any issue.Hence, once he downloaded the security footage to his phone, Raymond decided that he needed to sell the bronze sculpture—not because he was in urgent need of money, but because he realized that there were those who wanted him out of Aurous Hill's Antique Street.Afte
