Overnight, the grand wedding at the Sky Garden became the hottest topic in the city.

However, the bride and groom of the wedding remained unknown.

Charlie drove the modified BMW 520 and went home with Claire.

Claire was still immersed in great happiness, almost as if she was laying in the center of cloud nine. She couldn’t help but ask, “How did you book the Sky Garden? They’ve never allowed that ever.”

Charlie smiled coyly and said, “Frankly, the senior executive of Shangri-La is a good friend of mine back at the orphanage. We used to share our hard and difficult times together and I always shared half of my steamed bun with him, so when I asked him for a favor, he said ok.”

Claire nodded lightly. “Oh, I see. Why haven’t I heard about this before?”

“I have a lot of friends at the orphanage, I might need at least three days to talk about all of them. I’ve never mentioned anything because I thought you didn’t like listening to it.”

Claire uttered in an earnest tone, “You are my h

How is it that they drove back home in the BMW when they took a taxi to Shangri La hotel? So many inconsistencies

    Wide and radiant smiles were plastered on the in-laws’ faces when Charlie said that he would buy a better car for them tomorrow.What Jacob didn’t realize was that he had just missed out on the top-spec 760.Claire was a little worried. After returning to their room and washing up, she quietly asked, “Do you really still have the money to buy a new car? I have some secret stash here, take it tomorrow!”Charlie waved his hands quickly. “No, I don’t need your money. I still have some, it’s enough.”Claire mumbled apologetically, “I’m so sorry, I didn’t know my dad and mom would be like this…”“What are you talking about? Your parents are my parents too. We are a family, I’m glad to be able to shower them with gifts once in a while.”Charlie lay on his tiny bed on the floor and said with a gentle smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll go and get a new car for dad tomorrow morning!”Claire smiled warmly. “Thank you, Charlie!”Charlie chuckled. “The pleasure is mine, my dear!”Claire suddenly b

    The people in the Audi showroom spotted Charlie as soon as he was getting closer and closer. One of the salespersons blurted, “F*ck, it’s the e-bike guy who bought the BMW 760!”“D*mn, I’m going to stop him and persuade him to buy the top-spec Audi A8 even if I have to lick his boots!”“Yes!”All of a sudden, a large number of Audi salesmen rushed out and surrounded him.“Sir! Please come and see the latest top-spec Audi A8 in our showroom!”“Sir! Our A8 is very powerful. It uses a W12 engine, which is much better than the BMW 760 V12 engine!”Charlie arched his eyebrows curiously. “Really? Is it that great?”“Yes!” An Audi salesman marched forward hurriedly and started, “Boss, let me explain to you. Our W12 engine is divided into two sides and one side can be turned off as you please. It is more fuel-efficient when you turn off half of the twelve cylinders!”Charlie growled contemptuously, “Are you out of your mind? Why would I buy a twelve-cylinder car and turn off six cylind

    The man grinned. He pinched Lily’s face and said, “You’re my woman now, why do you still want to be with him? I don’t allow other men to touch my woman!”Lily hurriedly persuaded with a coy voice, “Don’t worry, Jerome, I haven’t let him touch me since we got together. He’s so filthy! My body is always yours and only yours, it’s exclusively for you alone!”Then, she continued, “Actually, I wanted to break up with him as soon as the restaurant started operating, but I didn’t know that the loser has a friend who is quite resourceful and helped me get rid of Scarface at the redevelopment zone. Wait until the business is on track—I’ll ditch him and kick him out of the restaurant then!”Jerome Hunt laughed pompously and said, “It’s just Scarface! If you’d told me earlier, all I need is a phone call and his boss would come to kneel and apologize to you directly!”Lily giggled delightedly and said, “Oh, Jerome, you’re my hero! It was quite urgent at that time, so I didn’t manage to contact

    Douglas said with a gentle laugh, “She has gone to the hair salon. Why?”Charlie smirked. “Hair salon? Was that what she told you?”“Yes!”“And you believe her?”Douglas asked in a peculiar tone, “Charlie, what are you trying to say? Just spill it out, stop beating around the bush.”Charlie gave a hum and started, “Alright. I saw Lily at the BMW showroom with a man named Jerome Hunt. They were cuddling and hugging, and she even called the man ‘dear’. I think she’s cheating on you.”“No way!” Douglas blurted loudly. “Lily is not like that at all! Did you get the wrong person?”Charlie said firmly, “No, I didn’t. It was her.”“No! I don’t believe it!” Douglas growled coldly, “Charlie, we are good buddies but you can’t say bad things about my fiancée just because we’re close!”“Douglas, wake up! Your fiancée is cheating on you with another man and that piece of crap Jerome even promised to buy her a BMW X6. They’ve gone back to his house now and she’s going to break up with you t

    After lunch, Jacob, Charlie’s father-in-law, was already dressed up neatly and urging Charlie, “Hey, hurry up and get ready, we’re going to drive in our new car and go to Antique Street. A shop there has imported a Tang Dynasty kiln vase and I want to check it out.”Charlie persuaded, “Dad, you’re starting with the antique thing again? We don’t have much money and it’s a lavish hobby to have right now.”Jacob didn’t have money-earning skills but he dreamed a lot about get-rich-quick schemes. He loved hanging out at Antique Street for the hope of getting a rare piece of antiquity at a low price but in the past few years, the experiences he gained were nothing but scams and deceit.He had stopped for a while but now, not only did he pick up the hobby again but he also started to get itchy hands again.Jacob was annoyed by Charlie’s goodwill remark. He snorted in disdain and said, “Stop your nonsense, just drive me there now.”Charlie was helpless but he could not disobey his father-

    Raymond stomped his feet furiously. “He’s your father-in-law, isn’t he?”Charlie nodded. “Yes, he is my father-in-law, but he’s the one who broke it, not me. You go and look for whoever is responsible for the broken vase. ‘Find the real perpetrator, don’t involve their family’—have you heard of that saying before?”Raymond’s blood was boiling, but he pondered upon what Charlie had said and figured that he was right.If the news of him asking compensation from innocent people spread out, then Vintage Deluxe’s reputation would be tarnished.Hence, he urged his men standing at the side, “You, go and get the old man back here!”Charlie curled his lips into a silent smirk as he watched the guys chasing after the old man in a hurry.Actually, he could simply swipe his card and get it over with, but it would be too easy for his shameless father-in-law then, wouldn’t it?It would be better to let the old man suffer and learn his lesson rather than cleaning his a*s for him. Otherwise, he

    Thrilled and overjoyed, Charlie quickly stuffed the Apocalyptic Book into his pocket, but the book instantly turned into powder and disappeared into thin air.Miraculously, every word in the book was clearly imprinted in Charlie’s brain.At this moment, Jacob, who ran away like a coward, was brutally apprehended by several big and strong men and was hurled back to the shop.Looking at his puffy and swelling cheeks, Charlie figured that he must have been beaten vigorously before he was carried back here.Charlie found Jacob’s piteous look very funny and amusing.How dare this old coot label him as a scapegoat after getting into trouble! It was outrageous! A little beating was necessary as a punishment for him to learn his lesson.Jacob was in a particularly dreaded and shaky position right now. Due to his desperate escape earlier, he was panting profusely like a dog, trying to catch his breath. His chubby and fragile body made it impossible for him to outrun those young people.

    Charlie nodded. “What if I fix it?”Raymond snorted. “I’ll need to check with the appraisers. If they verify that you’ve fixed it and recovered most of the damage, I’ll let both of you go!”“Alright!” Charlie nodded. “It’s a deal!”He quickly turned back to the workstation and quietly started his work. He took the brush and sketched the outline of the vase on the Chinese rice paper.Then, he knocked the egg lightly to crack a small opening, dipped his index finger into the egg to get some egg white, wiped it on a fragment of the vase, and pressed it against the paper model. Then, he repeated the same process for the next fragment, and another, until the paper model was gradually covered with the vase’s pieces…Everyone watched silently while holding their breaths in for fear of interrupting his restoration process.Half an hour passed very quickly.When Charlie stood upright again, what appeared in front of everyone was a Tang Dynasty Yuhuchun vase that seemed to be rejuvenated

    With a faint smile, Helena said, "Maybe it's for your sake that Mr. Wade saved your father. After all, you are his friend. It's normal for him to help his friend's sick father, isn't it?" Julie was like a bear with a sore head. Shaking and pointing at Helena with trembling fingers, he roared, "I would have believed it had it been anyone else, but I don't believe Charlie! I'm sure he was the reason why my dad had a stroke!" Helena smiled and said, "As an objective third party, I don't think there's anything wrong with Mr. Wade. The main reason your father had a stroke was because the Four-Sided Treasure Tower suddenly returned to Oskia. But if I remember correctly, you were the one who sent the tower out of New York, right?" Julien was so shocked that the blood drained from his face. He quickly waved his hands, panicked, and whispered, "Your Majesty, you must not say that!" Helena shrugged slightly and said, "Am I wrong? I seem to remember that it was your helicopter that carrie

    Julien was completely overwhelmed at this moment, but Harrison, having already heard Helena speak highly of Julien, felt a mix of gratitude and guilt toward him. He didn't suspect that Julien harbored any rebellious thoughts. Seeing Julien looking completely devastated, Harrison thought Julien was simply too emotional. He quickly stepped forward, gave him a hug, and patted his shoulder, beaming, "My good son, thank you! Thank you for everything you've done for me!" Julien, being hugged by Harrison, leaned on Harrison's shoulder and looked at Helena with red eyes, his eyes full of doubt. With a faint smile, Helena said, "Mr. Rothschild, I'll take my leave now so as not to interrupt your sweet moment with your son. I have some other business to tend to." "Come on, Julien. See Her Majesty off!" Harrison instantly urged. Julien thought, 'Oh, great! I was just looking for an opportunity to ask her what's going on!' Hence, he quickly replied, "Okay, Dad! I'll see Her Majesty off.

    'Even if he actively participated in the best rehabilitation in the world, he would only be able to recover slightly better than he is now. It would be God's blessing if he could recover to the point where he could walk with crutches!' As he thought of this, Julien turned his head to look at the attending physician, his face full of confusion and bewilderment. In fact, the attending physician was even more baffled. He felt as if his whole brain and spine had been fried at the same time. He felt as if all his years of medical training had been for nothing. In his whole career, over half a lifetime in medicine, he had never seen someone just recover from a stroke and immediately get up and walk around effortlessly. More importantly, Harrison was now politely chatting with the queen, gesturing animatedly, speaking fluently, and looking full of energy—more lively than even he was! All the doctor could do was nudge his glasses, astonished, confused, yet delighted, exclaiming

    After confirming the receipt of 20 billion dollars, Helena smiled at Harrison and said, "I've received the money, Mr. Rothschild. Thank you for your generous payment. It's been a pleasure working with you. I'll be returning to Northern Europe in a couple of days, and I hope your AI team will arrive there at the same time." "Of course, Your Majesty!" Harrison immediately responded. "I'll have them prepare right away and head over as soon as possible to take care of the preliminary planning and arrangements." While Helena was successfully selling the Healing Pill for 60 billion dollars plus a set of AI models, Julien, who was 20 meters away from the door, and Royce, who had just arrived, anxiously watched the time. In his view, the meeting between Harrison and Helena was taking a bit too long. It wasn't that he had any objection to their meeting. He was just worried it might delay the upcoming family meeting. After all, the meeting was set to start promptly at ten, and that mome

    Helena waved her hand dismissively. "You don't have to. As you mentioned, procuring the hardware for the AI models comes with its own costs. I'd rather take a loss myself than let you suffer. After all, you're already of such an age, and having had a stroke once before. If you end up losing something and it affects your mood, leading to a relapse, wouldn't that make me the bad guy?" "No, no, no!" Harrison, ignoring the subtle mockery, hurried over to Helena with great urgency and reassured, almost desperately, "Buying the hardware for Your Majesty is something we should do. Please accept it." As he said it, he lamented with regret, "Your Highness, I'm old, and my mindset is molded in the conservative mode because of decades of experience, and bargaining is one of them. Nevertheless, please rest assured that we will never again bargain when doing business with you." After experiencing the powerful effect of the Healing Pill, Harrison keenly realized that the pill must be a life-sa

    Harrison immediately caught the implication in her words and, with a smile, said, "Your Majesty, you are truly a brilliant negotiator. I've never seen someone so young yet able to control the pace of negotiations so skillfully! With you at the helm, the Nordic royal family is sure to soar to new heights!" Helena smiled and said, "You think too highly of me. I can control the rhythm well because I have a good mentor." "I wonder who your mentor is?" Harrison asked curiously. "I would like to meet him if there is a chance." Helena said lightly, "My mentor prefers to act with a low profile and isn't fond of the vanity that comes with fame, but I believe that you will have the opportunity to meet him in the future." "That would be wonderful!" Harrison replied with a beam. Helena then said, "It's getting late. I'll take my leave now." Harrison nodded. As he saw Helena turn to leave, he remembered something and hurriedly called after her, "Hold on, Your Majesty!" "Yes, Mr. Roths

    Seeing Harrison with his head down in deep thought, Helena knew he definitely wouldn't follow the original plan to pass the position of family head to Julien. Sure enough, Harrison lifted his head with a chuckle and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to New York and attend my family meeting to establish the heir. Your presence truly brings us great honor!" Feigning a surprised expression, Helena asked, "Aren't we going to announce Julien's succession today? Why have you changed your mind?" Harrison waved her off and, with a slightly embarrassed smile, said, "Plans can't keep up with changes, and changes always outpace plans. Until this morning, I never imagined I could regain my health. Don't you think so?" Helena smiled slightly. "Your recovery is partly due to Julien's devotion, which seems to have touched God himself." Despite what she said, she couldn't help mumbling under her breath, "Harrison really did change his mind,

    The wealth of the Rothschild family had long been beyond the estimation or calculation of outsiders. Over the years, they had made both visible and hidden investments in countless fields. All offshore companies registered in the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands, as long as they remained unlisted, were not required to disclose shareholder information. Among them were numerous companies in which the Rothschild family held shares or even controls. The true value of these holdings was impossible to verify. Even for listed companies, shareholder information was only disclosed in the primary market. The secondary market was bought and held through various channels that were impossible to count. In addition, the Rothschild family had investments in real estate, energy, mining, transportation, and other areas around the world. It could be said that any industry that was at the forefront of the trend could make enormous wealth. In colonial times, Britain was known as the em

    Since both Harrison and Helena had reached an agreement, Helena took out a pen and amended the details of the contract. The whole process was recorded, and coupled with Helena's identity as the Nordic Queen and the high traffic on the internet, she was not at all worried that Harrison would go back on his word. After the two sides agreed on the terms of the contract, Harrison wrote his name on the contract, and then the two sides exchanged agreements, and the contract was officially in effect. After everything was settled, Helena put the contract away, turned off the video recording on her phone, and beamed, "It's been a pleasure working together, Mr. Rothschild!" Harrison hastily asked, "Y-Your Majesty, can you please give me the pill now?" "Of course." Helena handed him the pill swiftly and said, "Even though my family doesn't have a lot of money, we always attach great importance to the spirit of the contract." Harrison stretched out his trembling hand and took the pill.
