Jasmine hurriedly waved her hand before she said, “Actually, my brother is pretty capable too. In fact, I really have no intention of inheriting the Moore family in the future. I simply want to make sure that my grandfather will not just be swept out of the house after he dies…”Charlie smiled slightly before he replied in a serious manner, “As long as I am around, I will never allow this sort of thing to happen.”Jasmine was really very grateful and she was overwhelmed with emotions at this time. She rubbed her eyes before she said, “Master Wade, I will send you to the Serene World Clinic now.”After that, Jasmine started the car before she drove out of the Moore family mansion.At this time at Serene World Clinic, Anthony and Xyla were both cleaning up all the herbs and materials from the medicine cabinet that had been smashed to the ground by the Webb family’s bodyguards.When Anthony saw Charlie and Jasmine walking into Serene World Clinic, he hurriedly stepped forward and sai

As Jasmine, Xyla, Charlie, and Anthony were talking about Kian’s affair, Charlie’s father-in-law, Jacob, was dressed in a suit as he happily walked out of his house and took a cab to The Heaven Springs.Since he was going to enjoy a little wine tonight, Jacob left his BMW at home. He had already given Charlie his car keys so Charlie could drive to The Heaven Springs to pick him up after his dinner.Jacob has no other hobbies during this period and he simply enjoyed studying antiques, cultural relics, and calligraphy and painting. That was the reason why he joined the Calligraphy and Painting Association.The reason why Jacob decided to buy everyone dinner tonight was because he wanted to contest for the position of the standing director of the association.In order to show his respect for the leaders of the association, he deliberately took the twenty thousand dollars that Charlie had transferred to him before he booked a bronze room at The Heaven Springs.Even though this was the

“Chester Scotson?” Jacob could not help but frown as he asked, “Are you talking about that old man who likes to brag to the point that he doesn’t even remember his last name just because he has a little money?”Morgan nodded before he said, “Yes. My support for you alone won’t be enough. When the other guests arrive later, you’ll have to try to win the support of the president and the other directors. That way, you might actually have a chance to defeat Chester in the internal voting and become the executive director instead. Do you understand what I’m saying?”Jacob nodded hurriedly as he said sincerely, “Brother Morgan, thank you for your sincere advice. You’re really inspiring! Thank you so much!”Morgan smiled slightly before he said, “Brother, why are you being so polite with me?”After that, Morgan glanced at the time on his watch before he said, “The chairman and the rest of the guests will also be here soon. Let’s wait for them at the door. That way, it will seem that you a

When everyone in the room heard that Chester had actually booked a Gold Room upstairs, they were all shocked!The Heaven Springs was one of the top restaurants in the entire Aurous Hill.Even some of the savvy and prestigious figures from the upper class society in Aurous Hill hardly had the opportunity to book a Gold Room even if they spent a lot of money or made use of the connections that they had to do so.Among everyone present here tonight, even Mr. Bay who had the highest status had never had the chance to enter the Gold Room for dinner. They had never been able to step into the Gold Room to see how luxurious it was.Now, Chester was actually offering to entertain all of his guests in the Gold Room at The Heaven Springs tonight. All of the guests in the room were in fact very surprised and excited when they heard that they would have the opportunity to go in and see the Gold Room for themselves!In comparison, Jacob’s small Bronze Room was now completely incomparable to the

Therefore, among all the people present here today, not one of them had even been up to the fifth floor of Glorious Club.Even Chester himself could only afford the lowest Classic membership tier at Glorious Club. Therefore, everyone naturally did not believe it when Jacob said that he had been to the tenth floor of Glorious Club before.Jacob really did not expect everyone to think that he was only bragging when he was simply telling them the truth. Therefore, he replied uncomfortably, “My son-in-law was the one who arranged for me and some of my old classmates to go up to the tenth floor of Glorious Club that night.”Chester laughed before he said, “I know who your son-in-law is. He is just a useless and casual son-in-law in Aurous Hill, isn’t it? I heard that he’s just a vagrant who is living off his wife. He’s almost as pathetic as you, so can he really afford to bring you to Glorious Club?”Jacob snorted coldly before he said, “It is entirely up to you whether you believe me

The expression on Jacob’s face was obviously very ugly after getting ridiculed by Chester.However, Jacob kept Morgan’s reminder in mind and he reminded himself that the most important thing was to win the position of the executive director at the end of the day. Therefore, he should not lose his temper and get angry at Chester.Jacob held back his anger and he did not say anything anymore. Instead, he simply followed the crowd of people as they followed Chester all the way to the Gold Room that he had already booked upstairs.As soon as they stepped into the Gold Room, everyone was very surprised as they admired the luxurious decorations in the Gold Room.At this time, one of the directors could not help but exclaim out loud, “It’s all thanks to Chester that we can get this opportunity to take a look at the Gold Room inside The Heaven Springs today!”Someone echoed, “Yes! Not too long ago, a friend of mine who had tens of millions of dollars wanted to book the Gold Room. However,

Jacob could only grit his teeth in anger.If he knew that Chester would be so vicious to keep insulting and humiliating him like this, Jacob would not have agreed to come up to the Gold Room at all.***Jacob was completely speechless and at a loss for words.At this time, Albert has just stopped his car at the entrance of The Heaven Springs.The first thing that he did after getting out of his car was to hurriedly ask the manager who opened the car door for him, “Is there a customer named Jacob Wilson who reserved one of the rooms at our restaurant today?”“Yes. He booked the Bronze Room No. 3.” The manager kept a careful record of the guests who came to the restaurant every day. Therefore, he naturally knew every single guest who booked a room at The Heaven Springs today.Albert nodded slightly before he hurriedly said, “Come. Come with me to the Bronze Room No. 3 now!”While he was still at Lord Moore’s birthday banquet, Master Wade had informed him that his father-in-law wo

Everyone turned around to look out the door as soon as they heard this voice. At this time, they saw Albert walking into the room with the manager.Chester naturally knew who Albert was. When he saw that Albert was here, he quickly stepped forward before he said respectfully, “Don Albert, why are you here personally?”Unexpectedly, Albert glanced at him with a cold expression on his face as he said, “Were you the one who called Mr. Wilson a pathetic fool earlier?”Chester was stunned at this time. What was happening? Did Albert know Jacob?As he thought about this, he hurriedly explained, “Don Albert, this is probably all just a misunderstanding. Both Jacob and I are members of the Calligraphy and Painting Association and we share a very good and close relationship with one another. Therefore, it’s only natural for us to ridicule and make fun of each other occasionally.”Albert frowned before he looked at Jacob and said respectfully, “Mr. Wilson, I really did not expect you to per

Charlie chuckled. "Don't sell yourself short, Mr. Hart. There are plenty of business folk who got so used to their comfort zone that they became caught in the illusion that they can be successful in anything they do. It's a mindset that leads to them blindly developing new projects and new competition, and then they end up losing big."If memory serves, there have been real estate businesses that started mineral water brands, search engines that tried the car industry, e-commerce sites attempting social media, and vice-versa. All of them are multi-billion-dollar companies venturing into new frontiers, but all to unimpressive outcomes."Pausing, Charlie then continued, "You've mentioned rising above the competition amidst the development of the new energy industry. That would get anyone's attention, and it is why I believe that you definitely will make a strong impression with your strategizing and knowledge of the basic principles."Yolden found it hard to refuse, seeing that Charli

Having lost it all, Jacob really looked like he wouldn't be getting back up.But fortunately, he had a pillar in the form of Elaine.In fact, Elaine would serve to be a container, whipping Jacob into shape if he got too full of himself.But on the other hand, now that Jacob was utterly despondent, she would be forcing him to smile and function in general.Elaine's attitude to the entire issue was clear as well. Even though Jacob had just lost his job, she would make him go shopping with her in Dubai even if he fell into a coma. Even if he was dead, she'd just cremate him and bring his ashes along.Hence, with Elaine's firm grip around Jacob's leash, he went on strolls, going shopping and taking selfies with Elaine everyday, eventually easing the toll on his mood and spirit.-Back at Aurous Hill, Charlie was preparing for Yolden Hart and Matilda Hall's wedding as it approached.Yolden was a schoolmate of his mother, Ashley Layna Acker, as well as Charlie's elder.And while Cha

"See you." As soon as Charlie hung up on Matilda, Don Albert's call came right after.He sounded nervous as Charlie answered the phone, saying, "Master Wade, I think I might have gone too far…""Wait, what's this about?" Charlie asked."Your father-in-law, of course…" Don Albert sighed. "You asked me to leave him hanging for a while, so I did. I even refused when he asked to book a room in Heaven Springs.""Well, that's not a problem, is it?" Charlie shrugged. "He and Zachary ganged up for some real mischief. As you are Zachary's boss, it's right that you refused him because you didn't appreciate what he did.""That's just it. I thought that approach was just right as well," Don Albert quickly said. "I wasn't playing nice when Mr. Bay of the Calligraphy and Painting Association called me either. That's when he said he'd try to save Jacob's position as vice-president, but I told him it's none of my business."I then hung up on him without much thought, only for Zachary to tell m

Meanwhile, Charlie was downstairs in Claire's office, waiting to pick her up and head home.That was when Matilda called him, asking as soon as he answered, "Charlie, do you know how Jacob is doing? He never answered any of my texts—is he going to be alright?""I wouldn't know," Charlie replied. "Both he and Elaine are in Dubai on a trip… What's wrong?""He resigned," Matilda sighed. "I only saw the public statement that the Calligraphy and Painting Association posted this afternoon. It says that he tendered the resignation himself, but it doesn't really feel that way. I wonder if he's at odds with other members of the association…"Charlie was actually surprised to hear that Jacob had resigned.He had told Zachary to expose the truth of the bronze sculpture fraud case to teach Jacob a lesson so that Jacob would understand the meaning of true pain.However, he anticipated that Mr. Bay would at least keep Jacob around with an unimportant job even if Jacob did lose some money and e

Falling apart in both mind and spirit, Jacob was crying as he disembarked and took a cab to the hotel.Elaine, who had been lying around for 24 hours, was stunned speechless as she watched him enter, crying like a child.In contrast, Elaine looked like a mother to Jacob just then as he threw himself into her arms and bawled, "Darling… That prick Mr. Bay screwed me over… I have nothing left now…"Taken aback for a moment that Jacob would bawl in her arms like that, Elaine soon came to her senses and patted his back as she comforted him, "Oh, stop crying already. Who cares about some Calligraphy and Painting groupies? We certainly don't! Just hear me out and don't ever go there again!"Jacob kept sobbing, "But I care… I want to go…"Annoyed, Elaine's hand that had been patting Jacob a moment ago slid down to his hip and pinched him viciously before he noticed."Ow!" Jacob yelped in pain, and he demanded indignantly, "What was that for?!""Shut up!" Elaine snapped, glowering. "I wa

Jacob couldn't even be bothered by the looks others were giving him, and he called Mr. Bay immediately.Mr. Bay had already gone home and was seated on the couch with his wife, watching his phone and waiting for Jacob to call and demand an explanation.Mr. Bay knew that he had to answer for this and that if he avoided Jacob, it may well be a confession that he had screwed Jacob over.So, to avoid unnecessary trouble, he decided to come clean with Jacob.Naturally, by coming clean, he meant passing the buck as his wife had suggested.Hence, as he answered Jacob's call, he immediately sighed in embarrassment, "Hey, Jacob. I'm so sorry about that…"However, Jacob was so furious he immediately started bellowing, "Mr. Bay! Are you fucking with me here?! You said that the resignation letter was more of a formality, but you just made it public instead! So, all those things you said about helping me were just a trap, was it?! You're despicable! And to think I've been so good to you, even

The repeated flights had left Jacob tormented.Even before he actually had the time to enjoy Dubai, he had already gotten sick of the place and didn't want to ever return.And on the flight, he couldn't stop his thoughts from going astray.Now that he was not getting back the money he had lost, his only hope was Mr. Bay.Fortunately, Mr. Bay was serious about his promise that he would at least save him a job as department head. That was why, despite his thoughts running astray, he never considered the thought that he would be kicked out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.As soon as his flight landed, he didn't wait to turn off his phone's flight mode, waiting for the internet connection to return so that he could ask Mr. Bay about the meeting.Once he did, he received a ton of messages from public accounts to acquaintances—many had already found out that he had resigned from the post of administrative vice-president and wanted to ask how he was doing.And Matilda was

The Calligraphy and Painting Association was certainly efficient—soon after the meeting was dismissed, the news that the administrative vice-president had resigned was posted on their official page and social media.The notice was simple and never mentioned what Jacob had done, only that the administrative vice-president had asked to resign for personal reasons. The request had since been voted upon, and all members had agreed to it.And that was how a simple and short message kicked Jacob out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association entirely.In the city, other associations closely connected with the Calligraphy and Painting Association were the various cultural societies and circles of antique enthusiasts and the Senior University. In fact, most fans of the public page of the Calligraphy and Painting Association were from the Senior City, and every lecturer, student, and even guest lecturer were subscribed.As a matter of fact, that was entirely Jacob's doing. After his lect

There weren't that many members in the Calligraphy and Painting Association—just a handful over twenty.Hence, at Mr. Bay's request, everyone showed up at the conference at 1 pm.He chose the afternoon as there were a handful who were away on outreach, including Walker, who was subbing for Jacob's lectures.Once the entire Calligraphy and Painting Association save for Jacob was informed of the mandatory meeting, every member was there on the hour, seated primly and in attention in the huge conference room.Mr. Bay didn't waste his breath on the preamble either—as soon as he saw that everyone had arrived, he announced, "Everyone, I've gathered you here today because our administrative vice-president, Jacob Wilson, has been alleged to be involved in a certain malicious scheme."Last night, Mr. Wilson submitted his resignation to me, and after a discussion with my vice-presidents, we've all decided to hold a vote. It will be open to every member in the association as we will be decid
