Jacob started panicking as soon as Elaine spoke.He knew that Elaine had secretly tried to unlock his cell phone and thought that Elaine would certainly guess his password incorrectly since he had already changed his cell phone password. However, he really did not expect Elaine to know that he had changed his password to Matilda’s birth date!This made him feel a little flustered and a little afraid at the same time!Fortunately, he had set up a separate payment verification password. Otherwise, Elaine would have already taken all of his money away!When Elaine saw that Jacob was hesitating, Elaine lashed out at him immediately. She gritted her teeth at him as she cursed, “Weren’t you being very arrogant and acting all mighty in front of me for the past two days? You were scolding me and lashing out at me without even giving me any face at all. Why are you keeping quiet now? Don’t tell me that I’ve guessed all of your dirty thoughts correctly!”Jacob blurted out, “Stop talking any

Jacob could only bite the bullet as he tried to explain himself, “Claire, I was simply talking to your mother about everything that had happened back then. I didn’t say anything to target you at all. I’ve never once said that I disliked you.”Claire did not know anything that happened between her father and mother in the past. She could not help but feel a little dissatisfied at this time. Therefore, she could only say, “Dad, I don’t care about what happened between you and my mother in the past. I don’t know if there was a third party between the both of you at that time. I only know that you’ve already been married to my mother for more than twenty years now. You were also the one who had agreed to marry my mother in the first place. Therefore, you should respect your own marriage!”“If you change your cell phone password to your first love’s birthday, then this is simply an act of infidelity to your own marriage! If you no longer love my mother and if you really hate my mother, th

After the farce ended, neither Jacob nor Elaine benefited from it at all.All that Elaine wanted was money, but she did not even get anything in the end. Therefore, she could not help but feel a little depressed the entire day.After the family of four returned home from the villa, they started packing up all of their own belongings. Claire also did not forget to call Loreen to inform her that they would be moving into the villa tomorrow. She had asked Loreen to check out of the hotel and move into the villa together with them.Loreen was very happy when she heard the news.Ever since she fell in love with Charlie, she had always been looking for various opportunities to try to get to know Charlie better. However, she had been very busy with her own work and she also had to take Claire’s feelings into consideration. Therefore, she did not have any opportunities to spend more time with Charlie at all.If she could move into the villa and live with Charlie and Claire, then she would

Lady Wilson snorted coldly before she said, “If I don’t repay the bank that money, I will be taken away and locked up in prison directly! Don’t forget that I am the corporate legal representative for Wilson Group! I am also the person who will be held responsible for the debts of the company!”Christopher hurriedly said, “Then you should at least keep one or two hundred thousand dollars for the family so that we can still sustain ourselves for a short while! I can’t even afford to smoke a pack of cigarettes that is fifty dollars now!”“You still want to smoke cigarettes?” Lady Wilson replied sharply, “It would already be great if you have food to eat and you’re still thinking about smoking?”Christopher held back the anger that he was feeling and he could not help but sigh as he said, “Mom, I’m already old so I can still tolerate it. However, Harold and Wendy are still young! They have not suffered much in the past so we can’t let them suffer now!”Lady Wilson snorted coldly, “I do

After Lady Wilson and Christopher lashed out at one another, there was an irreparable crack left in both their hearts.The old lady finally decided to only keep fifty thousand dollars to be used as the living expenses for the family of four. After that, she repaid the rest of the money to the two banks.After receiving part of the repayment, the person-in-charge of the debt collection department also gave Lady Wilson a lot of face. He decided to give the Wilson family a breather and he extended the repayment period for the Wilson family to gather more money to repay their debts.Lady Wilson could finally heave a huge sigh of relief.She was still counting on Wilson Group to turn around and come back to life. She felt as though she would definitely have the opportunity to turn things around as long as she could delay the bankruptcy of Wilson Group.Perhaps she would be able to wait for the next Kenneth Wilson to come around?At this time, the Wilson family was indeed facing a grea

Charlie hurried out of the bedroom and he saw Loreen who has especially dressed up today.Loreen was really dressed very beautifully today. She was wearing a beige windbreaker with a black base sweater inside and she looked very tall and feminine. As for her lower body, Loreen was wearing a woolen short skirt with a pair of leggings that really brought out her long and slender legs. It was really very eye-catching!As soon as Loreen saw Charlie, she started blushing immediately. She waved her hand slightly at him before she said nervously, “Hello, Charlie! I will have to depend on you to take good care of me in the future!”Charlie smiled slightly before he nodded and said, “Welcome. Welcome.”Charlie was actually feeling a little helpless.He knew that Loreen was in love with him.He would not mind it if she simply confessed her feelings to him. He could simply decline her feelings or turn a blind eye to it.However, she was moving in and she was going to be living under the sa

After editing and posting some of her pictures online, Elaine deliberately added a few pictures of herself with a shy expression on her face. Moreover, she also tagged the location of the villa at Thompson First in her pictures.As soon as she posted her pictures online, many people immediately liked and commented on her pictures.They even left all sorts of admiration messages to praise and suck up to Elaine at this time. All of Elaine’s friends could not help but marvel at how luxurious and grand her villa was.After all, no one would have ever imagined that Elaine would be able to live in a top notch villa worth more than one hundred million dollars. This was really beyond the understanding of everyone who knew her.At this time, the Wilson family members were all very miserable as they were eating some duck and a handful of boiled cabbage.The old lady was in charge of handling the family money and she was very dissatisfied with Christopher and his son and daughter because the

Christopher plucked up the courage to say, “Mom, even if the court sentences you to prison one day, Harold, Wendy, and I will be able to live a simple and stable life if we have the money. However, if you refuse to take the antiques out of hiding, then the three of us will definitely starve to death if you are sentenced to prison!”“Starve to death?” Lady Wilson replied coldly, “All three of you have hands and feet. You won’t starve to death if you’d just go out to the streets and work as a community worker! Christopher, let me tell you something; the batch of antiques left behind by your father is for my retirement fund! You shouldn’t have any funny ideas about it!”Christopher could no longer hold back his anger and he stood up as he said coldly, “The things left behind by my father is also for the sake of his children and grandchildren! Who gave you the rights to keep everything for yourself?”Lady Wilson replied coldly, “So what? Are you going to rebel against me now? Alright th

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

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

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
