Lady Wilson shouted, “Wendy, come here, let’s get this shrew to the toilet and wash away the food on her head with cold water! She may take advantage of us not looking and eat it behind us! I don’t want that to happen!”Elaine cried in horror, “No! It’s almost winter now! You’re going to kill me if you wash my head with cold water!”Jennifer, who had been watching the scene, growled coldly, “Stop the d*mn bullsh*t! If I hear another word from you, I’ll shower you with cold water after the old lady washes your head with it!”Elaine wailed in extreme fright as Lady Wilson and Wendy dragged her into the toilet.Immediately afterward, Wendy pulled her head under the faucet and turned it without hesitation!The icy cold tap water splashed on Elaine’s head, making her brain freeze instantly followed by the excruciating pain from the cold that made her shiver all over.She looked at the grinning Lady Wilson, begging, “Mom, please, give me a towel, I beg you! I’ll freeze to death!”Lady

“What?!”Claire shrieked in shock, “Beautiful, elegant, good temperament, perfect personality. More importantly, she is a widow, a rich widow… That makes her the rarest bachelorette in the middle-aged aunties category, doesn’t it?!”Charlie nodded and said in a serious tone, “Yup, she is a bachelorette alright, but she doesn’t look like an aunty at all, more like an older sister.”Surprised, Claire asked, “Really? Like how old?”Charlie answered, “Maybe thirty-seven or eight years old, and at most forty.”“Seriously?!”Claire gaped in utter astonishment and disbelief. She rarely saw a woman who was 50 years old but looked 10 years younger.Wasn’t it a little too outrageous even for a movie star?Charlie nodded firmly. “I’m not kidding at all, she does look very young and beautiful. You know Catherine Zeta-Jones, right? Aunt Hall looks younger and more beautiful than her.”Astonished again, Claire said, “Shut up! Are you for real?”Charlie smiled. “Well, she’ll come to our hou

At this time, 24 hours had passed since Elaine had disappeared.Therefore, Claire was very worried and nervous, started going in and out of the beauty salons that Elaine frequented.She came to one of the beauty salons and asked the owner while showing her Elaine’s photo, “Hi, have you seen this woman before?”The owner looked at the photo curiously and asked, “Oh, isn’t this Mrs. Wilson?”Claire was equally astonished. “Do you know my mother?”The owner smiled and said, “Oh, so you are her daughter. Well, she used to be my regular here, but I haven’t seen her lately. She used to come here with her friends quite often. Why? Is she missing?”Claire nodded and asked, “Do you know any of her friends? Can you give me their number please?”The owner gaped as if something struck her mind and blurted, “Hey, one of her friends is doing facial right now. Why don’t I call her out and ask?”Claire quickly said, “That will be great! Thank you!”The owner smiled. “You’re welcome, it’s my p

Mrs. Wayne’s face twisted in a disdainful grimace that the already tight mask crumbled and fell off her face due to the distorted facial muscles.She looked at the poor mask on the floor, feeling upset. She got even more upset when she thought of yesterday’s incident.Although she and Elaine were not the best of friends, they shared a pleasant friendship where they often played mahjong and went for facials and spa treatments together.They had plenty of acquaintances like this who treated each other courteously, but Elaine’s ridiculous reaction yesterday had made her so angry that she couldn’t sleep at night.Claire couldn’t help but be bewildered and puzzled upon hearing Mrs. Wayne’s complaint. Why did her mother talk to her friend like this? She had been keeping a low profile recently because she didn’t have any money, but what’s with her sudden change of attitude? Did she stumble upon an unexpected wealth?She even said things like buying a beauty salon for herself! It proved

In other words, Elaine was penniless.Then, why had she insulted Mrs. Wayne on the phone like a snobbish wealthy shrew not long after?Did she suddenly become rich in such a short period of time?Where did the money come from?Even if she was indeed rich, why did she have to disappear then? Was it really because she despised her and her father after she became rich?It was not absolutely impossible though, based on her understanding of her mother’s characteristics, but how about Thompson First villa, the dream home that she had been drooling for a long time?Logically speaking, if she did get a fortune by accident, she would hide the money and continue to stay at the luxurious villa, which was in line with her character. She wouldn’t have disappeared with the money and abandoned the villa just like that, not to mention that she didn’t even get to spend a night at the villa yet.The more Claire digested and analyzed the situation, the more confused she was. She felt that her di

Charlie drove around town aimlessly. When he got a call from Jacob saying that Matilda was going to their house soon, he drove home.Claire received her father’s call too with the same message, and she headed home despite her reluctance.Loreen insisted to stay out of dinner at home tonight when she learned that there were visitors coming. Claire wanted her company to avoid awkward silence, but she felt awkward enough already so she rejected her offer by saying she had to work overtime and had dinner by herself.Claire was in no place to force Loreen though, she warned Jacob beforehand instead, “Dad, when your friend comes over, please don’t try to talk about me, I’m not in the mood to chit chat today.”Jacob knew that he could not push her too much since she was willing to come home and have dinner with Matilda for his sake, so he said to Charlie, “My dear son-in-law, at dinner later, I need you to lighten the mood, okay?”“Alright.” Charlie nodded hesitantly.At this moment, th

Matilda nodded and said, “100 million is not that expensive, but I don’t quite get it, how could Jacob afford the villa here based on his current situation?”Paul smiled and said, “Well, you need to ask him yourself then.”Matilda smiled too. “Hmm, maybe he hides his light under a bushel.”Paul pondered for a while and said, “Honestly speaking, Uncle Wilson is a nice man, but I can’t say that he has any light to hide, in fact, I don’t think he has a bushel too.”Matilda asked curiously, “What do you mean by that?”Paul replied, “Nothing, I just feel a little weird, that’s all.”Matilda laughed lightly as she replied, “Okay, enough with that. I should be happy for my old pal who can live in such an expensive villa. As for other things, it’s none of our business.”Paul nodded earnestly. “Yes, mom, you are right.”At this moment, Jacob opened the gate and said excitedly as soon as he saw Matilda and Paul, “Hey, Matilda, Paul, you’re here. Come, please come in!”Matilda smiled as

At this time, Jacob had already brought Matilda and her son, Paul to walk through the courtyard.As soon as they met, Claire was really shocked by Matilda’s appearance. She had already heard Charlie saying that Matilda’s temperament and appearance was simply amazing but she really did not expect it to be so good.At the same time, Claire could not help but feel a little envious of Matilda.After all, it was really amazing for a woman to be able to maintain such a good level of her temperament and appearance when she had already reached the age of fifty or so.Matilda was also a little surprised when she saw Claire. She really did not expect Jacob and Elaine’s daughter to turn out to be so beautiful and outstanding.At this time, Paul, who was standing next to Matilda, was also a little stunned. He was really surprised at Claire’s beauty and temperament.Jacob hurriedly introduced them to one another. “Matilda, this is my daughter, Claire.”After that, he looked at Claire again b

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

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
