The expression on Lady Wilson’s face changed as soon as she heard the other party’s words!She trembled uncontrollably and her walking stick fell to the ground with a thud.She had initially thought that she would have enough time to look for someone who would be able to help her to turn things around for Wilson Group. However, she would have never imagined that she would be placed in this kind of situation so quickly!Christopher and his children’s faces also turned pale as soon as they heard what the other party said!“Mom, what’s happening here? Are they going to seal up our villa now? Didn’t you already repay more than one million dollars to the bank?”Based on the current economic condition of the Wilson family, they would not have a place to stay at all if their villa was sealed. Furthermore, none of them had any skills or abilities of their own. They were going to suffer a terrible fate!Christopher and his children would not be the only ones who would have to go out to fi

Christopher rubbed his forehead slightly before he said, “If they discover it, then it will all be over for us!”As they were speaking, a young man dressed in a uniform suddenly walked into the villa with a strange device in his hand.The device was a long pole with a circle in front of it. It looked like a mine detector commonly used in movies.Christopher asked in surprise, “Young man, is that a mine detector?”The young man simply smiled before he said, “No, but it is actually pretty similar. This is a metal detector. It will give out a warning should there be any metal detected underground. Since mines are also made out of metal, we can also use this to detect mines but there is a difference in the level of sensitivity.”As soon as Christopher heard that it was a metal detector, he could not help but say, “It’s already bad enough that you come over to and seal off other people’s houses. Why do you have to bring a metal detector to check out other people’s houses?”The other p

As soon as the old lady passed out, Christopher rushed forward before he grabbed hold of the old woman’s collar as he shook her vigorously in anger!The old lady woke up as soon as she passed out because she was being so vigorously shaken by Christopher. As soon as she opened her eyes, Christopher reprimanded her immediately, “Didn’t you say that no one else would be able to find those antiques aside from you? Now, all of our antiques are gone! They’re all gone! How is our family going to survive and continue living now?”Lady Wilson could not help but feel a sharp pain in her heart. She could not stop crying out loud. She was in deep grief and she kept wailing as she said, “I really didn’t know that things would turn out like this. If I had known that things would end up like this, I wouldn’t have hid all of my antiques at home even if it would kill me!”As she spoke, the old lady could not stop the tears from flowing down her cheeks. “It’s over. Everything is really over now! My h

In other words, they would not only have no place to stay for the next three months, but she might even probably be sent to prison after three months…Lady Wilson cried until she was almost out of breath and she felt as though her life was already ending.After the representative from the court gave them a warning, he did not say anything else and he simply turned around, then got into his car and left immediately.The members of the Wilson family could only sit helplessly outside their villa with a pile of their tattered and broken furniture and bundles of their clothing and necessities. They could not stop the tears from flowing down their cheeks.They were completely helpless at this time.Unexpectedly, it started to drizzle at a time like this.A few security guards from the villa community rushed over to them and said, “Guys, please take your belongings with you and move out of the community of our villa as soon as possible. Please do not affect the appearance of our villa c

At this time, at the villa at Thompson First, Elaine was lying on the deck chair on the all-glass balcony on the second floor and she was grinning from ear to ear as she stared at her cell phone.There were more than three hundred likes on her pictures right now and this has already broken her records.She could not even keep count of all the comments and after a short while, she could not even reply to all of the comments anymore.Today, Elaine finally understood what it felt like to have everyone’s attention on her.Her entire circle of friends were all staring and keeping track of her! Moreover, they did not hesitate to praise her in the comments. Therefore, Elaine really felt very relaxed and happy.At this time, some of Elaine’s closest friends started sending her some messages in their group chat: “Oh, Sister Elaine moved into the villa at Thompson First today! She will have to buy us dinner!”“Exactly!” Some of the other people started replying: “Sister Elaine, you’ve jus

Since they had just moved into the villa today, it took them some time to clean up the villa. Therefore, they were going to have lunch later than usual today.However, Charlie was receiving very good treatment at this time. He had two beauties, Claire and Loreen, hanging around him and helping him to prepare dinner in the kitchen. Therefore, he could not help but feel that cooking had also become a pleasure today.After he was done preparing lunch, he brought the dishes out to the dining table. After that, Elaine also came down from the second floor using the elevator.She was going to ask Charlie for money but when she saw him coming out of the kitchen with the other two girls, she started to hesitate a little.She was not embarrassed to ask Charlie about the money. However, the main point was that her husband and daughter were also here and she felt that it would be inappropriate for her to ask Charlie about the money right now.At this time, she suddenly heard the doorbell ring

As Lady Wilson was about to kneel down, Jacob panicked and hurriedly reached out to stop her.The old lady was determined to kneel down anyway. She fell straight down to the floor with her knees bent. She thought that she would admit defeat first and see if Jacob was really so stubborn and not pity her.However, Jacob shared the same thought as Elaine.Although he was on bad terms with Elaine and had even planned to separate from her, they both agreed that they couldn’t let Lady Wilson live in the villa with them!Hence, Jacob held the old lady in his arms and said coldly, “Mother, please stop your sympathy-seeking act. No matter what you say, I can’t let you live in this villa!”Lady Wilson chided sadly, “Jacob Wilson, you ungrateful b*stard! I gave birth to you, you self-centered brat! How dare you stop me from living with you after you moved into such a big villa?!”Jacob nodded and said firmly, “Mother, like it or not, this is fact. No matter what, I can’t let you stay here!”

Charlie nodded sternly. Since they wanted to remain so stubborn and audacious, he didn’t have to give in.“Grandma, since you don’t have a place to live, how about I arrange a place for you? It includes food and housing and doesn’t cost a penny.”“Shut up!” Lady Wilson chided disdainfully, “You want me to live in the old apartment where the four of us used to live, don’t you? No freaking way! I don’t want to live in such a shabby place! I will move into this Thompson First villa today!”Charlie said, amused, “Oh no, Grandma, you’re overthinking it. We bought the old apartment and we won’t let you stay in for free, of course.”He immediately took out his phone and texted Isaac.“The Wilson family has come to cause trouble at Thompson First. Call someone and lock these people up in the detention center for 2 weeks.”Isaac quickly replied, “Okay, Mr. Wade, I’ll get on it right now.”Elaine was extremely annoyed by Lady Wilson’s antiques, she tried to push her out the door with grea

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

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!
