The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 892
Elaine nodded in a daze before she said, “Sister Jennifer, please let me have some food. Otherwise, I’m really going to die…”Jennifer sneered before she poured the rest of the porridge in the lunchbox on the ground. After that, she tapped the porridge on the ground with her toes before she sneered and said, “Do you want to eat something? If you want to eat it, then you can just lick it off the ground!”When Jennifer had asked Elaine to lick the porridge off the ground yesterday, she was very unwilling to do so.This was because Elaine felt that she could not kneel down and do such an embarrassing and humiliating thing just to get some food.However, she could not be bothered about her own face and reputation anymore. Who cared about all of that indiscretions as long as she could fill her stomach? So what if she had to kneel down and lick the porridge off the ground?Therefore, Elaine knelt down and she started to use her tongue to lick the cold porridge off the concrete floor wit

After getting taken to the police station, Elaine was immediately brought to an interrogation roomA few police officers came in before they sat down in front of her and said, “Elaine, have you thought it through seriously in the past two days? Are you ready to confess all of your crimes?”Elaine started crying as she said, “Officer, I’ve already told you that I was wronged…”The officer snorted coldly before he said, “What? Do you really think that this is the first day that we are interrogating our suspects? If we cannot catch any of your accomplices, then we will just put this entire crime on you then! If that is the case, then you will probably be shot for your crime!”As soon as Elaine heard that she might be shot, she panicked and she started pleading immediately, “Officer! I have already told you many times that the card does not belong to me!”“I simply took the bank card out of my son-in-law’s pocket. The password for my son-in-law’s bank card was his birthday. That shoul
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 894
After that, the police officer continued speaking, “Your son-in-law is a very upright and magnanimous person. He does not have any greed in him at all. As soon as he received this bank card and found out the balance in this bank card, he made a police report about this matter. We told him not to act too hastily or behave in a rush. However, you had stolen his bank card and actually gone straight to Citibank to withdraw the money!”Elaine exclaimed regretfully, “Oh! If I had known that this was the situation all along, I would not have stolen his bank card even if you killed me!”As Elaine spoke, she could not stop crying bitterly. She really did not expect to walk right into this kind of trap!It turned out that a criminal organization had stolen Charlie’s personal data, forged a bank card before sending it directly to Charlie!They simply did this to lure Charlie and tricked him into having greed for the $21.9 billion balance in the bank card!After that, Charlie would go to the

Elaine completely believed the story that the police officer had told her. What she was most worried about right now was that the police officer would continue detaining her in the detention center to prevent her from spreading any rumors or raising any false alarms. If that really happened, then she did not know when she would finally be able to regain her freedom.Elaine looked at the police officer with pleading eyes as she cried and said, “Officer, I really won’t say a word about this matter to anyone at all. Please let me go. If you continue to lock me up in the detention center, I will definitely die inside the cell…”The police officer shook his head cautiously before he said, “Elaine, I cannot believe you. After all, I have already seen plenty of people like you. On the surface, you will tell us that you will not tell anyone about this matter but as soon as we let you go, you will definitely tell people about this matter because of your big mouth.”After that, the police o

At this time, Elaine asked the police a tentative question in a low voice, “Well…officer…am I not even allowed to talk to my son-in-law about this matter in private at home?”The police officer who was playing the villain slammed his hands on the table angrily before he looked at the police officer who was playing the hero and said, “I have already told you that it is impossible to trust this stupid and foolish woman! You even wanted to release her from the detention center? Did you hear what she just said? She wants to confront Charlie about this matter! Wouldn’t she be simply ruining our case and putting her own life at risk then?”The expression on the police officer who was playing the hero’s face darkened immediately. He stared at Elaine before he replied coldly, “Elaine, you really disappoint me. I really thought that you would be able to keep this matter to yourself without saying a word about this at all. I really did not expect you to think of confronting your own son-in-law
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 897
When they saw the desperate look on Elaine’s face, the police officers quickly exchanged glances with one another. After that, the police officer who was playing the hero asked, “Elaine, we can consider letting you go but there are some issues that we would have to discuss with you first. First of all, if we really do allow you to go home today, then what are you going to tell your family if they ask you about your whereabouts for the past two days?”Elaine hurriedly replied, “I…I will tell them…for the past two days…in these two days…”Elaine hesitated for a long time without saying anything at all. This was because she did not know what to say or how she should explain things to her husband and daughter when she got home.After all, she has already disappeared for two days and two nights for no reason at all. What was even more important was the fact that there was not a single spot on her body which has not been beaten up at all.Furthermore, Elaine also lost her two front teeth

Jacob cleaned himself up and he dressed up immediately. After that, he did not even want to have breakfast at home because he was simply too anxious to go out.When Claire saw him all dressed up again, she asked him immediately, “Dad, where are you going so early in the morning?”Jacob replied cheerfully, “I have already made an appointment to meet up with your Aunt Hall. Both of us are going to visit our alma mater together today since she has not been back in Aurous Hill for more than twenty years now!”When Claire heard this, she suddenly got angry and she blurted out, “Mom has already been missing for more than two days and two nights now and there is no news on her at all. How could you still go out to hang out with Aunt Hall at a time like this? Aren’t you going to go out to help us to look for Mom at all?”“Well…” Jacob chuckled slightly before he replied in a secretive tone, “Well, aren’t you and Charlie already looking for Mom? After all, both of you are still young and it

Jacob dressed up as though he was someone who had just returned from abroad, looking very handsome and stylish today.This time, Jacob and Matilda had a tacit understanding with one another. Jacob did not bring Charlie along with him and Matilda did not bring her son, Paul with her.Jacob personally drove his BMW 5 Series all the way to Shangri-La to pick Matilda up so that they could go and visit their alma mater together.Matilda wore a long gray woolen coat and she looked very classy and elegant today. Jacob was overwhelmed and extremely fascinated when he saw Matilda standing at the entrance of Shangri-La.He hurriedly got out of his car to open the car door for Matilda. At this time, he could not help but exclaim, “Matilda, you’re dressed so beautifully today!”Matilda smiled slightly before she said, “I’m already an old person now so how can I possibly be that beautiful anyway? I decided to tidy myself up and dress up a little nicer today because we’re going back to visit ou

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
