Chapter 753

Penulis: Lord Leaf
Elaine was utterly shocked by Jacob’s raucous grunt!

She knew that, at this moment, she couldn’t keep the secret anymore, so she mumbled in a sheepish and shaky voice, “Dear, I’m sorry, I lost all our money in the mahjong…”

She didn’t dare to tell the truth about Hannah being the mastermind behind the scam, because she knew that if the Wilson family knew about her involvement in the scam despite being a victim, they would come to her first since they were looking for Hannah frantically.

Claire has been watching her mom abuse her dad her whole life, and now Elaine lost $2M. But she doesn't want her parents to divorce? I'd be thinking "Finally, what took so long.".

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 7257

    Tanya laughed. "Mr. Wade, can Ms. Singer hear you when you're talking so softly? The walls are especially soundproofed in hotels…"And yet, she barely finished when a door opened and Penny stepped out, asking shyly, "I've never drunk before, Mr. Wade…"Charlie exclaimed in surprise, "Never? Even after you become an adult?"Penny nodded sheepishly. "Father always said it affects mind, judgment, and cult—"She cut herself off, as she wanted to say cultivation, but remembered Tanya was there too.Charlie understood anyway, and smiled, "It's true that alcohol affects a person negatively as you put it. But on other occasions, it relaxes them, if not offering inspiration. There is also mental fatigue that can't be eased with physical rest, but a little rest can resolve it like a hot knife through butter."With those words, he poured a glass of red wine for Tanya and two glasses of Moutai, one for Penny and another for himself.Smiling, Charlie then said, "Alcohol can also be a form of

    Charlie led Penny to the suite, but just as he opened the door, the door to the Presidential Suite down the hallway opened, and Tanya stepped out.Seeing Charlie, she exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, Mr. Wade! Just the man I'm looking for!"Then, she turned to see the black-clad Penny, and was immediately drawn in by her atypical but stunning appearance. Still, she wasn't sure why Charlie would bring a woman to his suite this late at night.An extramarital affair? Or just a call girl?Charlie, however, remained calm as he said, "Ah, Tanya. This is Ms. Singer, my assistant."Penny was delighted to see Tanya and greeted her politely, "Nice to meet you, Ms. Sweet. I'm a fan!"Tanya nodded politely and came to shake her hand. "Nice to meet you, Ms. Singer."Still, she was puzzled even as she said those words.Feng Shui consultant was just a cover and not a real job—why bring an assistant?For his part, Charlie didn't explain himself, instead opening the door and telling Penny, "Your

    Penny was right—from a certain point of view, Charlie was keeping secrets from his wife just like the men in the Singer family.However, he wasn't that cold. Even if he had a child with Claire, he was not going to simply disappear on her.Still, seeing that Charlie was quiet, Penny realized that she had made an inappropriate comparison and quickly explained, "Sorry, Mr. Wade. I'm really not good with words. Please don't take offense."Charlie chuckled self-deprecatingly. "No, you don't have to apologize. What you said was true."Seeing the troubled look on Charlie's face, Penny didn't press the issue, having a hunch that Charlie had his own problems.They soon arrived downtown, and Penny had been taking in the sights as he drove to Luketown's Shangri-la, where Tanya and her crew were staying, too.Parking the BMW, Charlie then led Penny to the elevator, which took them straight to the top-floor suites.She had Isaac arrange a 300-square-meter luxury suite, with two deluxe rooms

    Seeing how nervous Penny was, Charlie smiled, "Ms. Singer. You seem more wary than before, but you really don't have to worry. This is Oskia. No one's going to hurt you here."Penny nodded, hearing that alluring voice and that assuring smile.Still, she knew that Charlie had misunderstood. She wasn't wary because of the unfamiliar surroundings, but the fact that their status had changed significantly, along with her opinion of him.Being too dense emotionally to understand that, Charlie simply decided they had no reason to stay and told Penny, "Get in the car. We can talk on the way."Penny quickly said, "Yes, Mr. Wade."As Charlie opened the front door for her before she could reach it, her heart raced and her cheeks blushed harder as she got in.Once she sat, she had both her hands squeezed between her legs, more or less uneasy.After Charlie got on, he quickly drove out of the airbase and headed out to Luketown, asking, "Is this your first time being in Oskia, Ms. Singer?""

    To no surprise, Penny had just taken a seat when a flight crew came in, informing the volunteers, "Everyone, please keep social interaction to a minimum as we have special agents with high clearance on the plane. Keep your mobile devices off and out of reach. Thank you for your cooperation."The volunteers include teachers and doctors who were screened thoroughly before they left the country, and therefore had clean backgrounds. Hearing that it was military business, they cooperated and promptly put away their phones.Penny and the black-clad youths were then seated sporadically, with only one of them occupying a seat in an entire row, while none of them talked to each other at all.In fact, the black-clad youths were sent by Emmett to cover Penny, as it was his style to be prudent and leave no loose ends. And in faraway Luketown, Charlie turned down Tanya's invitation to her afterparty once her concert ended, and drove out of the stadium straight to Choky Airbase.When he arrive

    Just as Penny was left moping in her new surroundings, Porter approached her and told her politely, "Ms. Singer? Mr. Wade just called. He's asking you to prepare for a flight to Oskia by tomorrow, in a humanitarian aid transport.""I'm going to Oskia?!" Penny was delighted to hear that—she didn't know Charlie that well and had no idea if she was valuable to him. She had been worried for a while that Charlie wouldn't pay her further attention after returning to Oskia, as she had barely a couple of years more to live, and it was almost impossible to save her.Moreover, she offered no value in return—even if she was sent to help fight the Qing Eliminating Society, she just couldn't inflict any actual damage.Just as she thought that she'd be stuck in Syria, waiting for Fleur's poison to kick in and die, Charlie sent for her!Fighting back her thrill, she asked, "Is that true, Mr. Waldron? I'm sure that the Qing Eliminating Society will be searching for me, considering my strategic v

    Ashley suddenly remembered something, her expression turning slightly anxious, and she said, "There's a chance that Vera might come here to see you. To be cautious, I'll leave Aurous Hill and head to Mount Pantro for a few days later today. You should stay here for one more day. If Vera hasn't come

    "Oh, Jacob…?"Matilda chuckled awkwardly. "Just today, he offered to buy me dinner, but I said I didn't have the time, and I also told him about our wedding… So, we should invite him since he's aware of it.""Jacob offered to buy you dinner?" Yolden exclaimed in surprise. "Did he say why?""Nope,

    It would be the easiest if they were dead. All that had to be done was to find their bodies and bring them home to Jennie. If it was the second or third possibility, the mission was to find Edmund and Salem, whether they were hiding voluntarily or involuntarily. It would be considered done when they

    Upon hearing that Charlie would host him, Julien was flattered and expressed his gratitude, saying, "I truly appreciate you taking time out of your busy schedule to meet with me!" Charlie smiled and replied, "We're good friends, no need for formalities. When do you expect to land in Aurous Hill?" Ju
