The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 824
When she saw that she had already achieved her purpose, Lady Wilson quickly burst into tears as she hit her own legs and started wailing, “I have been so miserable in this life! My family is really so unfortunate to have this kind of vicious daughter-in-law! I am already about to die, but my daughter-in-law is still yelling at me and reprimanding me!”Jennifer could not tolerate it anymore when she saw the old lady crying.She suddenly recalled the tragic appearance of her mother who had been sent to the hospital after drinking a whole bottle of pesticide. She did not die at that time, but the doctor had told her that her mother could no longer be saved because her lungs had already become irreversibly fibrotic after taking in such a large amount of pesticides.At that time, her mother had also been crying as miserably as this as she lay on the bed. Jennifer could not help but shed some tears as she thought of that heartbreaking scene.Since Elaine had forced and pushed this old la

While Elaine was suffering in the detention center, Charlie received a phone call from Isaac.As soon as the phone call was connected, Isaac said, “Young master, Elaine has already been locked up in the detention center. I have also arranged for her to be placed in the same cell as the old lady of the Wilson family and Wendy as per your wishes.”Charlie asked, “Have you already greeted the prison guard?”Isaac replied, “Yes, I have already asked my subordinates to greet the person-in-charge of the detention center. No one will bother butting in or doing anything even when Elaine is getting tortured in the detention center.”“Okay.” Charlie replied coldly, “I want her to suffer a little more inside!”Isaac hurriedly asked, “Young Master, do you want me to arrange for a few people to go into the detention center to get rid of Elaine directly? This way, she would never be able to provoke you again.”Charlie hesitated for a moment before he said, “Don’t worry. Let me see how things a

The prison guard took a step back before he pulled his leg out of Elaine’s grasp. After that, he simply told the two women who were supposed to collect the food, “Hurry up and come with me.”Both of them hurried forward as they followed closely behind the prison guard.Elaine felt very desperate and helpless.As soon as the prison guard closed the door behind him, Jennifer walked toward Elaine with a dark expression on her face. She ground her teeth as she said angrily, “The one with the last name Parker! You are really very bold! You actually dared to tell on me?”Elaine felt as though she was about to collapse! She quickly pleaded, “Sorry! Sorry! I must have been a little confused. Please let me off and forgive me this time!”“Forgive you?” Jennifer raised her hand and gave Elaine a tight slap across her face. Elaine felt a little dizzy as soon as she was slapped.Lady Wilson walked over to Elaine and gritted her teeth as she stepped directly on Elaine’s fingers and cursed, “Yo

Elaine almost peed her pants upon hearing Jennifer’s words.She did not doubt Jennifer’s words at all because she could tell that Jennifer was a very vicious person. The fact that she had already been beaten up so badly by Jennifer earlier had already cast a psychological shadow on her.Lady Wilson hurriedly relied on Jennifer’s support as she kicked Elaine and cursed, “So, are you going to write the letter or not?”Elaine yelled out in pain before she said, “I will write the letter. I will write the letter for you now, okay?”Jennifer gave her a tight slap across her face before she said, “You are really a miserable wretch! You simply refused to cooperate when people asked you nicely, but you only act accordingly after getting beaten up!”Elaine felt seriously wronged and blurted out, “You are also the same! You did not even bother to talk to me nicely and simply raised your hand to hit me as soon as you came up…”Jennifer ground her teeth in anger before she raised her hand and

After she was done speaking, Lady Wilson raised her hand before she slapped Elaine again. Then, she said coldly, “I have not liked you ever since the day Jacob wanted to marry you! Since you have already disgusted me for so many years, I must hit you until I am finally satisfied!”Elaine broke down completely!She never expected Lady Wilson to be so shameless!She was the one who made her the promise, but she had gone back on her words just like that!However, there was nothing Elaine could do right now!Furthermore, since Jennifer was here, Elaine did not even dare to voice out her dissatisfaction at all!As she thought about this, Elaine was extremely sad. She could only desperately hope that this was just a nightmare and wish that she would be able to wake up sooner!After a short while, the two people who had gone out to collect their dinner finally came back with two large plastic baskets in their hands.There were many different lunch boxes packed in the same tupperware.

Elaine, who had been beaten up severely, was also very hungry at this point.She did not even manage to eat a single bite of the food that Charlie prepared for lunch at noon. After that, she was immediately arrested by the police.After all the commotion in the afternoon, coupled up with all the shock and beating, she could not help but feel extremely hungry after all the physical exertion.Therefore, she cautiously crawled over to the bag of food before she took a lunch box from the plastic basket. She was about to hide in a corner to eat by herself but at this time, Jennifer suddenly shouted, “Elaine, what do you think you are doing?”Elaine hurriedly replied, “Big…big sister, I am going to eat…”“Eat?” Jennifer shouted, “You are a bastard who is not even filial to your own mother-in-law and you still have the audacity to eat?”“I…I…” Elaine suddenly choked up but she did not know how to answer Jennifer’s question.Jennifer was very dissatisfied and she continued reprimanding

”No.” Charlie pretended to be surprised as he asked, “Why? What’s wrong? Is Mom not back home yet?”“No.” Claire replied, “I thought that she was going out with her friend. However, one of her friends just called me earlier and told me that they have not been able to contact my mother ever since the afternoon. They kept waiting for her to confirm whether they would be having dinner together, but they could not find her at all. I also asked dad about it, but he told me that he did not know where she was. That’s why I decided to ask you instead.”Charlie replied indifferently, “I really do not know where your mother is. She asked me for some money in the afternoon, saying that she wanted to go out for dinner with her friends. However, since dad is in charge of our family’s money now, I told her that I had to ask for dad’s consent first. I did not give your mother any money because your dad did not consent to this matter. I think your mother was a little angry.”Claire nodded thoughtfu

Claire barely touched her chopsticks at all during dinner.She kept picking up her cell phone to try to call Elaine and she kept sending her many text messages but there was no response from her at all.On the other hand, Jacob has a very relaxed and contented look on his face. He felt that it would be great if Elaine had run away from home, just like Hannah did. If that was truly the case, then his life would truly be liberated.Claire was very anxious at this time and she kept saying that she wanted to go to the police station to make a police report. At this time, Jacob said, “Oh, Claire, your mother is already an adult. Perhaps she really has something to do outside? Why are you so worried about her? What if she really intended to run away from home? Are you really going to ask the police officers to drag her home then?”“How can that be possible?” Claire replied earnestly, “Mom has already been looking forward to moving into the villa at Thompson First for such a long time. No

Julien shook his head and gingerly asked, "Jordan Fox likes his granddaughter?"Charlie smiled, shaking his head. "And your father doesn't like you as his eldest? Admiration is no guarantee of inheritance. And if we're talking about love, is it not a gesture of love that he provided you with endless cash and a life of privilege that only the world's top one percent can enjoy?"Julien also noticed the flaw in his logic. "Then, do you perchance know why, Mr. Wade?"Charlie nodded. "Jordan granted his position to Kathleen because that was the condition I proposed to him in return for prolonging his life. No succession, no pills—no matter how much he was willing to pay me for it."Then, Charlie looked Julien straight in the eye as he continued solemnly, "If the day comes and I find you more reliable, I will choose you as the sole broker for your father's pills. Just think about it—if the day comes that you're the only person your father can get his pills from, would he say no if you as

Charlie chuckled. "You might think that I'm screwing you over, but in reality, I'm indirectly solidifying your place as heir apparent. From what I've learned, your family has not confirmed who it would be."Julien chuckled awkwardly. "You're right, but I am now. With the pills you've provided, however, my father might live longer than me…"Charlie nodded. "Since we have the fortune of meeting over drinks, I shall cut to the chase—to me, it doesn't matter who between you or your father lives longer. My priority is with whom I could hope for a better partnership."And right now, your father has shown more sincerity than you have, which was why I asked Helena to provide him with my pills."Pausing, Charlie then asked, "Are you aware of your father's recent activities? In Northern Europe?""A little," Julien replied. "A data center or something along those lines."Charlie nodded again. "See, I've asked Helena to make him a new offer—I will provide him with one pill should he build an

Charlie had actually invited Julien over to bring him aboard his metaphorical ship.While not particularly down-to-earth, Julien was still the second most important figure in the Rothschild family, and having him on board wouldn't hurt.Moreover, just having drinks with Charlie and Raymond here basically told everyone they were friends. If Harrison knew that Julien was meeting the son of Curtis Wade as well as 'Biden Cole', who had taken the Four-Sided Treasure Tower from the Rothstchilds, he just might have Julien shot.While Julien may not become the head of the Rothschild family anytime soon, he would prove very useful.With Helena basically controlling Harrison and Charlie himself controlling Julien, traveling Stateside would be no different from going home."It seems I must reevaluate my opinion of you now with that attitude."Charlie smiled at Julien and raised his cup, "Come, let's have a toast—to friendship."Julien nodded, picked up his cup, exclaiming cheerfully, "To f

Pausing, Julien then said, "I mostly drink wine and the occasional whiskey.""How much are those, usually?" Raymond asked.Julien thought about it. "If it's table wine, 10,000 to 50,000 USD. For bigger occasions, it'd be something over a hundred thousand."Raymond nodded and pointed at the bottle of Oskian vodka he had bought. "Guess how much that is?"Julein shook his head. "I don't usually drink Oskian alcohol, so I'm not too sure…""Come on," Charlie chuckled. "We're not asking if you know—we're just asking you to take a guess.""Then…" Julien quickly said. "I'm guessing, three thousand?""Three thousand?" Raymond chuckled and shook his head. "That's way too flattering. It's around 7 USD.""Seven bucks?!" Julien exclaimed, and he blurted, "You usually drink something that cheap, Mr. Cole?""Well, not stateside," Raymond smiled. "But I liked it after I ordered one from a diner yesterday. It's cheap, and it has quality."Julien gulped as he stared at his own cup filled to th

Julien flinched and promptly threw his hands up. "No, no, no… please don't say that, Mr. Wade! That's not what I mean—as a son, it's only right that I hope my father lives long and prospers. Why wouldn't I want him to?"Charlie pointed out, "Then why'd you say that I've screwed you over repeatedly?""Oh. I, uh…" Julien wasn't sure how to respond to that, and he groaned unhappily, "I was not being mindful with words. I take that back…" Charlie nodded. "Then, I'll give you another chance.""Huh?" Julien was left confused, and he quickly asked, "Another chance… for what?"Charlie clapped him on the shoulder again, smiling, "We're old friends, aren't we? Why would I screw you over? Anyway, your turn."Julien was left utterly aggrieved as he read through Charlie's intention—that was precisely the definition of screwing him over!If his father knew he had come to Aurous Hill to hang out with these two, especially Biden Cole, he would definitely be removed as heir! And yet, Charlie
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6552
Having seen a sliver of the common folk's plight, Julien turned back to the journey at hand.Soon, his MPV arrived at Aurous Hill's Antique Street.As it was closing hours, the place appeared bleak, almost as though it had been completely abandoned. It was only during opening hours and the few hours before closing that the place became most alive anyway.Most of the time, the vendors and employees outnumbered the guests, and during closing hours, it would get very quiet. One wouldn't even find strays here as there weren't scraps around.Still, Julien had no idea what the hell the place was, even as he arrived outside Treasure Measure following the location Charlie had sent.Once he was sure he was at the right place, he called Charlie, immediately sounding respectful and flattering, "I'm here, Mr. Wade. If you don't mind opening the door…""Alright, just hang on," Charlie said and put down the phone while turning to Raymond, who was putting the food on a folding table, "Our frien

The lawyer then finished, "To be honest, cases of regretting a donation and seeking a lawsuit to get the money back? Law firms usually won't even get one per year, and that makes it especially newsworthy for the press."Also, court records are always public. That means anyone can access the verdict, and there's no hiding anything. So, if you want the lawsuit, you'd better be prepared."Jacob was already left in despair.All he wanted was to get his money back, but he didn't think that it would end up as public knowledge.And Mr. Bay had just told him over the phone that he would try to quell the scandal's pressure and try his best to protect Jacob's place as vice president.If Jacob's name was suddenly mentioned in a lawsuit attempting to reclaim an 'accidental' donation, even Mr. Bay couldn't save him at that point.Hence, after thinking long and hard about it, Jacob realized that he was not getting his 300 thousand back.The thought crushed him, and he burst into tears, "What

At this hour, most of the employees at Talbot Associates had already left.However, there were several lawyers who had just finished a meeting regarding a certain case, and they were just leaving when Jacob arrived.Seeing that they were packing up their bags and ready to leave, he asked, "Excuse me, are you still able to take cases?"The leader smiled, "Yes, but it's a little late now. Why don't you come again tomorrow morning?"Jacob shook his head impatiently. "This is very urgent—please help me and hear me out, then see if it will work. 300 thousand banks on this, so I'll give you twenty percent whether or not I get it back!"300 thousand was really neither here nor there.However, if it were an easy civil case, that twenty percent commission would still mean sixty thousand.The lawyer thought about it. "Fine. Tell us what your problem is, and we will assess the situation first. If it's easy, we can give you a general strategy right now. But if it proves difficult, we'll hav

The cabbie nodded. "Well, Talbot Associates, it is! They're said to be number two."-While Jacob was heading off to consult a law firm, Charlie was calling Julien Rothschild over the phone.The manchild had just had room service and was lounging on the couch, fiddling with his phone.After visiting the kennels with Charlie, he had been idling his days away at the hotel, waiting for Salem and his son to post that video of them being out at sea.Once that was done, Julien would return to the States, once more the heir apparent of the Rothschilds. Still, it was boring to simply lounge around in the hotel, and he would really like to strengthen his ties with Charlie.However, he was also afraid of being too forward as Charlie could be intimidating, and he could upset him—just like a fan eager to get close to their idol but was still worried about their idol getting disgusted with them.As such, he never expected Charlie to call him, and he immediately answered eagerly, "Good even
