Sean replied excitedly, “I’ll listen to you, Dad!”Donald nodded in satisfaction as he said, “Come, let’s go in and ask Charlie to give me one of the Rejuvenation Pill!”“Ask him for the pill?” Sean hurriedly asked, “How are you going to ask for it?”“By kneeling!” Donald replied indifferently, “Since the entire Moore family has already knelt down in front of Charlie, then we’ll have to kneel down in front of him too!”“Kneel? You want me to kneel down in front of Charlie?” Sean jumped up as he yelled, “You want me to kneel before him? Dad, why don’t you kill me instead?”Donald could not help but frown as he stared at his son and said, “Did you even hear anything that I was telling you earlier?”Sean had a very sad and depressed expression on his face as he said, “But Dad, you’re asking me to kneel before him! When have I ever knelt down before anyone else aside from you and my grandfather? Didn’t you tell me that men should never kneel down in front of anyone else?”Donald sne
When Sean saw that his father firmly believed that Charlie definitely had more Rejuvenation Pills on him, he looked at his father before he asked, “Dad, are you really going to look for Charlie and beg him to give you a Rejuvenation Pill?”“That’s right.” Donald nodded slightly before he said, “You’ll come with me later and I’ll apologize to Charlie on your behalf. After that, you’ll kneel down and beg for Charlie’s forgiveness. After that, I’ll take advantage of the opportunity to ask him for a Rejuvenation Pill then.”Sean had a very depressed expression on his face as he said, “Dad, do you mean that you want me to kneel down before him and apologize and confess to my mistake? After that, you’ll take advantage of this opportunity to ask him for the pill?”Donald glared at Sean before he asked, “Do you have anything to say about my plan?”Sean was startled by the look in his father’s eyes and he hurriedly waved his hand as he said, “No…I have no objections at all!”Donald nodded
First of all, what was the reason that Anthony decided to open Serene World Clinic in Aurous Hill? It was simply because Anthony wanted to repay Charlie’s kindness. That was the main reason that Anthony had decided to move to Aurous Hill.As a result, Donald and his son actually had the audacity to smash and destroy Anthony’s medical hall. He really could not tolerate and swallow the anger that he was feeling!Unexpectedly, Donald returned to the banquet hall with Sean at this time.Moreover, instead of bringing Sean back to his table, Donald brought Sean with him as they headed directly to Charlie’s table.As soon as they arrived at Charlie’s table, Donald immediately arched his hand as he said in a respectful manner, “Master Wade, I’m sorry if my son has offended you in any way because he didn’t know what he was doing and saying earlier. I’ve brought him here to apologize to you and to ask for your forgiveness now. I hope that you won’t take it to heart and I hope that you can ac
Donald felt his heart tighten as soon as he heard Charlie’s words.He knew that Charlie would not give in so easily. However, since he had already offered a sky-high price of one billion dollars, he thought that Charlie would have given in and forgotten all the contradictions that had happened earlier for the sake of the money.However, he really did not expect this guy to pay no attention to the sky-high price of one billion dollars at all. Instead, Charlie was going through the old account and he was still taking it to heart.If this was a normal business transaction, Donald would have already left upon encountering an opponent who would be negotiating in this manner, no matter how big the business opportunity was.However, Donald could not just shake his hands and leave right now.This was because deep down in his heart, Donald could not resist the temptation of the Rejuvenating Pill at all. It was as though Donald had been completely captivated by the attraction brought about
This was really tricky!He really did not know about their relationship prior to this!Donald had simply thought that Anthony was nothing more than a well-known and reputable doctor in the country. Since he could not beat him up, then he could only smash and destroy his clinic to exert a little pressure and force the genius doctor to finally agree to see and treat his youngest son.He really did not expect to cause more trouble for himself.However, Donald was very eager to get his hand on the Rejuvenating Pill. At this time, Donald could only turn around as he pointed his finger at his son, Sean, who was kneeling down beside him at this time. After that, he said indignantly, “Hey! This is all my son’s fault! He is very impulsive and ill-mannered. I’m sorry that I did not teach my son well!”Sean could not help but twitch slightly at this time.He really did not expect that he would have to bear the responsibility for his father’s action at this time.Even though he was very ang
Donald stared blankly at Charlie as he swallowed the Rejuvenating Pill and he suddenly became very angry!It was only then that he realized that Charlie was only messing with him from the very beginning to the end!He had never intended to sell the Rejuvenating Pill to him! Charlie was simply trying to embarrass both the father and son in public!Moreover, Donald really could not believe that he was naïve enough to believe that Charlie would be touched just because of the one billion dollars that he had quoted him. How could he believe that Charlie would agree to sell the Rejuvenating Pill to him just because he had apologized to him?Donald was really furious and frustrated when he realized that Charlie had been playing around with him. Besides that, Charlie had even broken his son’s hand!Donald stood up immediately before he shouted, “Charlie! I won’t call myself a man anymore if I don’t kill you today!”After that, Donald took out his cell phone as he called his bodyguards fo
At this time, Reuben hurriedly stood up before he said, “Grandpa, the Moore family has already shared a friendship and connection with the Webb family for so many years! Please think twice before making a decision!”Reuben really did not want to see the Moore family and the Webb family breaking all ties and connections with one another.After all, he was still hoping that he would be able to get Jasmine to marry into the Webb family. If the two families broke all ties with one another, then what he hoped for would never be possible!Lord Moore glanced at Reuben before he said lightly, “There’s nothing left to think about! The Webb family is the top and most influential family in the South Region and the Moore family cannot afford this friendship! I declare that the Moore family will break off all ties and connections with the Webb family from this day onwards!”Everyone at the scene was dumbfounded as soon as Lord Moore said those words.No one would have expected a fallout betwee
Donald and Sean, the father and son, were filled with incomparable resentment as they left the Moore family villa.Sean clutched tightly onto his broken hand as he cried out in tears, “Dad! I’d already told you not to go and beg that pathetic piece of trash but you refused to listen to me! Now, not only have I broken my hand but he also embarrassed and humiliated you in public! Don’t you find it really very embarrassing?”Donald looked at his son with a black face as he said, “The one with the last name Wade is simply seeking his own death! So, he shouldn’t blame me for not being merciful towards him in the future. Don’t worry, Sean. Dad will definitely avenge you!”Sean blurted out, “Then, can we kill Charlie tonight?”“No!” Donald replied coldly. “We have to act according to our original plan. The first thing that we have to do is to kill Don Albert first so we can get rid of Don Albert’s firepower! After that, it will be so much easier for us to get rid of Charlie and the Moore
Hearing Jacob's tone, Charlie could tell that Jacob must have already learned about Matilda's plans to marry Yolden. So, Charlie said, "I'm just around the corner. I'll head over now, and we can meet at the gate." Choking up, Jacob replied, "Alright, I won't drive then. I'll wait for you at the gate. Hurry!" "Okay," Charlie agreed, but after hanging up, he deliberately waited for a few minutes. It was because Yolden had just left moments ago to pick up Matilda at Senior University. If Charlie had gone there right now, all four of them could have run into each other at the gate, which would make things even more awkward. Charlie wasn't worried about feeling awkward himself—he was more concerned about Jacob being further hurt. After intentionally waiting a bit, Charlie finally drove to the university. Just as Charlie drove toward Senior University, Matilda was waiting for Yolden by the roadside at the entrance of Senior University. At this moment, Jacob stumbled out of th
Charlie asked, "There are too many new domestic energy brands now. Do you think they still have a shot in vehicle manufacturing?" "Of course," Yolden affirmed. "There are indeed many new energy brands now, and many of them are struggling on the edge of survival. A lot of them have already disappeared, but the automotive market is so vast, and new energy vehicles only account for a small portion of it, which proves that the future of new energy still has great potential. Now, if the focus is only on competing with other new energy brands, the scale is indeed a bit small. The scope should be broadened to compete with traditional gasoline vehicle manufacturers. If you can cut Toyota, Honda, and Hyundai's global sales in half, that would truly be a giant." Yolden paused for a moment, almost as if remembering something, and then said, "Actually, you could consider researching this field. You don't lack money or resources, and with Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group as your logistics channe
When Jacob came to his senses, he was already in tears. The student presumed he was unwell and asked, "Mr. Wilson, do you want me to call your wife to pick you up?" Elaine's sarcastic face immediately popped up in his mind, and he trembled with fear. He quickly wiped away his tears and stammered, "D-don't bother... I... I just got something in my eyes..." The student obviously didn't believe him and asked worriedly, "Why don't you call your wife? Or I'll call a cab for you." "No, no." Jacob waved his hand and said, "I'll call my son-in-law to pick me up. He has just returned to Aurous Hill, so it shouldn't be a problem." After that, he quickly took out his phone and called Charlie. Just a few minutes ago, Charlie had left the cafe and was about to walk Yolden to his car. When he saw Yolden walking straight toward a domestic new energy vehicle, he asked curiously, "I don't think you were driving this model before, were you?" "I just bought it," Yolden replied with a smil
If Matilda still had feelings for Jacob, his nostalgic strategy would definitely have a strong impact. However, Matilda had already decided to move on, so Jacob's suggestion did not stir any emotions in her at all. With an apologetic smile, she said, "Sorry, Jacob, Yolden is downstairs waiting for me. We have something to discuss. How about another day? We can have dinner together, and I'll treat you." Jacob didn't expect the nostalgia strategy to fall flat. His original plan was to use nostalgia to get Matilda to go with him to eat near the school, then take the opportunity to revisit old places and subtly reignite their past memories. After all, revisiting old places was the best way to rekindle old feelings, no exceptions. It was like drinking the pasta water after cooking the pasta. However, he never imagined that Matilda's expression wouldn't change in the slightest. There was no shyness, no hesitation, no nervousness, and certainly no fluttering heart. She simply and
Matilda had been listening attentively before, but now, she was lowering her head, fiddling with her phone, and her expression even carried a hint of shyness and happiness, like that of a young girl. Jacob felt a pang of jealousy. While doing the presentation, he couldn't help but resentfully think to himself, "What has Matilda been chatting about with that Yolden guy? She's so happy..." At that moment, Matilda had just received a message from Yolden. In the message, Yolden informed her of the outcome of his conversation with Charlie and expressed his desire to have the wedding as soon as possible. Seeing how eager her beloved was to marry her, Matilda naturally felt very touched. At that moment, she had completely fallen into Yolden's love. For this man, who had a similar background, education, values, and even lifestyle to her own, she could find no fault with him. She felt that he was perfectly tailor-made for her by heaven itself, almost as if everything about him perfectly m
Charlie's worries were not unfounded. He had long known that Jacob had not completely given up on Matilda despite her relationship with Yolden. After returning from the cultural exchange in Korea, Jacob had been more dejected than ever before—something he hadn't even displayed when his family had gone bankrupt. If there was still a chance to salvage the relationship when one's beloved was merely dating someone else, their marriage was tantamount to a death sentence. Furthermore, considering the high intellectual backgrounds of Matilda and Yolden as well as their age and life experience, their decision to marry at this stage of life undoubtedly signaled their intention to build a long-term future together. This left Jacob with absolutely no chance at all. At this moment, Jacob was blissfully unaware of the devastating news and was busy conducting a calligraphy and painting workshop at Senior University. The so-called workshop was essentially a few slides showcasing classic
After that, Charlie asked with a bit of curiosity, "When did you and Matilda decide to get married?" Yolden smiled sheepishly and explained, "Remember when the city organized our cultural exchange trip to South Korea? I confessed to Matilda during that trip, and she accepted. After spending some time together, we both felt we were a great match. Considering our age, we didn't want to delay such an important decision any longer, so we decided to take the next step and build a family together." He continued, "Last month, we went to Lambonear for a few days. I bought a ring and proposed to her by the seaside, and she said yes. We also sought the opinion of our respective children—Autumn and Paul—and they were both very supportive. Both kids are exceptional and independent, so they urged us to have the wedding as soon as possible. I wanted to wait until you returned so I could check your schedule. For our wedding, we'd like to ask you to be our officiant." "What? Me as the officiant?
Charlie said without hesitation, "Sure. When is it convenient for you? Send me the address, and I'll go meet you." Charlie had always respected Yolden not only because he was a nice and talented man but also because he and his mother went way back and went to the same school. Yolden said hastily, "I've just come from Senior University. It's the weekend, and I don't have classes today. Why don't you send me the address and I'll meet you?" Charlie gave it some thought. It was a little past 3 p.m., so Yolden had likely already had lunch, and there were still a few hours until dinner. Inviting him to The Heaven Springs didn't seem ideal for a discussion. Considering that he had lived in the United States for many years and probably had a habit of having coffee in the afternoon, Charlie said, "How about this? There's a Starbucks not far south of the university. Let's meet there for a cup of coffee." "Perfect!" Yolden said with a smile. "I was just thinking you could give me an addre
On the way back to The Heaven Springs, Julien was in a much better mood than when he had arrived. Initially, he was filled with anxiety, unsure of what Charlie had planned. But now, everything had become clear. The troublesome matter of Salem and Edmund was no longer his concern. All he had to do was wait for the video from the ship to be released and then head back home. Charlie noticed his improved mood and smiled as he asked, "Julien, you've resolved the most critical matter right after landing in Aurous Hill. You must be feeling pretty happy, right?" Julien chuckled and said, "To be honest, before coming here, I was worried that I'd end up going back empty-handed and being secretly mocked by others. But now, it's different. Once your video is released, no one can blame me for not doing my job. If anything, they can only blame their family for missing their chance. After all, so much time has passed, and it's their fault Salem and Edmund were moved to the Middle East." As he
