At this moment, the graceful Jasmine exited the elevator.The purpose of her visit was to give Paul the flower baskets, but she could not take her eyes off Charlie.She was over the moon every time she saw Charlie as if she had returned to her eighteen-year-old self, the tender age when she had first experienced love and passion.In fact, a girl who was from a wealthy and influential family like her had to learn to grow up and be mature earlier than ordinary people. They had to get into the cruel reality earlier and learned to put on a disguise earlier.But ever since she bumped into Charlie and falling in love with him, her ability to put on her disguise failed whenever she was in front of him.She asked shyly while staring at Charlie, her eyes full of admiration and affection, “Master Wade, how do you know Mr. Paul? He just arrived in Oskia not long ago, didn’t he?”Charlie smiled warmly and answered, “My father-in-law and Paul’s mother were college mates, that’s how we knew ea

Jasmine glanced at Paul gratefully. “Okay then, I don’t want to be a bother either. Let’s get together sometime. See ya!”Paul was indeed very high in IQ and EQ. He could see that Jasmine had fallen head over heels for Charlie, hence the favor. If so, he might as well be the gentleman here and help her.Jasmine turned to Charlie and said, “Let’s go then, Master Wade!”Charlie nodded with a polite smile. “Thanks for the lift.”Jasmine smiled, her face blushing shyly. “You’re welcome, Master Wade.”***Jasmine gestured to her bodyguards to carry the flower baskets into Paul’s office. She pressed the elevator, reached out to block the door, and said, “Master Wade, after you!”Charlie nodded slightly and stepped into the elevator, and Jasmine followed in.When the elevator door closed, the faint and luxurious fragrance on Jasmine’s body slowly penetrated Charlie’s nostrils and tingled his sense of smell.He must admit that Jasmine had a great and refined taste.

After Elaine returned to the detention center from the police station for questioning, she was extremely anxious and restless while waiting for the results.She had no idea if the police would release her, so she prayed and prayed wholeheartedly.In the two days since being locked up in the detention center, she had suffered the torment that she had never experienced in her life. She was on the verge of collapsing right now. She feared that she would die here if they didn’t release her.Lady Wilson was in jitters when she knew that Elaine was called to the police station for questioning this morning. She was worried that Elaine would confess to the officer about the bullying she had suffered in the cell by her and Jennifer.She was also worried that Elaine would apply for a cell change.If the officer took her away, her greatest and only pleasure in the detention center would be gone!For so long, Lady Wilson was down in the dumps because of the misfortune and tribulations that s

Lady Wilson snorted coldly. “What did you do wrong, you ask me? Listen, you are wrong as long as you are alive and breathing! Your only choice is to die and not waste the oxygen in this world!”Sharp pain from Elaine’s ear made her shiver in fear. She felt like her ear was about to be pulled off, but she didn’t dare to show the slightest intention of disobedience. She could only swallow the bitterness and endure the pain and suffering with all her might. ‘Just a while longer, just a while longer and I’ll be out of this hell hole!’‘After I get out, this useless old fart will also be released in a couple more days. Until then, she will have no place to stay, no food to eat, and she will probably die on the street! By then, I’ll get my revenge!’Did the old fart really think that she would be held up for ten odd years? She even dreamed of going to stay at the Thompson First villa with that stupid letter! What a joke!The old fart must have never imagined that not only would she not

Elaine was very upset but she knew that the prison guards had absolute authority toward them, so she sheepishly followed everyone out of the cell.When they arrived at the yard, the guards commanded, “First, run three laps around the yard, then you can roam freely for half an hour. After that, line up at the entrance of the yard and return to your cell!”Everyone quickly formed up a line. Jennifer was the head of the cell, so she arranged the queue. She glared at Elaine in dismay and chided, “Hey, you, stand in the front. Everyone will keep their eyes on you. If you don’t run properly, I’ll blow your head!”Then, she turned to other inmates and said, “You and you, help the old lady and run slowly, don’t wear her down.”Lady Wilson chuckled warmly. “Oh, Jennifer, you’re too kind. I am old, but I’m still quite fit and strong. I don’t need anyone to help me, I’ll walk slowly behind you.”Jennifer nodded and shouted, “Get ready, run!”Elaine was in great pain from all the beating and

Everyone started to retreat when they saw how fearsome and intimidating the scar-faced woman was, but the delightful grin on Lady Wilson’s face was a stark contrast to their timid expressions. She was very happy as long as she saw Elaine being beaten.Wendy shared the same gleeful delight too. None of the beatings that Elaine had suffered for the past two days was comparable to the slap she had sustained today. The scar-faced woman must be very strong to be able to knock Elaine to the floor with a simple slap.Elaine, on the other hand, shivered in tremendous horror!Being beaten was not a big deal for her anymore as she had experienced it firsthand for the past two days, but she didn’t understand why the scar-faced woman had beaten her.Was she a member of the transnational scam group that was here to settle the score?Just when Elaine was shaking in fright, Jennifer smiled sheepishly at the scar-faced woman and said, “Sister, we don’t know this woman. If you want to beat her up,

When the other two women heard this, the both of them immediately rushed forward and the three of them kept punching and kicking Elaine together.Their fists and kicks greeted Elaine repeatedly and Elaine could not stop herself from crying out in pain.In fact, these three people were sent here by Isaac to scare Elaine and teach her a lesson. He wanted Elaine to believe that she was in big trouble.This way, she would not dare to cause any trouble for Charlie when she was finally released from the detention center.At this time, Elaine was rolling on the ground in pain after getting beaten up for a long time. She was screaming and begging for mercy endlessly.The other inmates were still running at this time but they stopped in their tracks as they stared at Elaine and the group of girls in shock when they heard Elaine’s screams.Although Jennifer also played a part in beating Elaine, she was never as cruel as the three other inmates. It felt as though they were trying to kill El
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 924
Some of the inmates sympathized with her, some of them were simply enjoying the good show and some of them had their own lingering fear about the situation.As Elaine was being brought back to her cell, Charlie received a phone call from Isaac.Isaac informed Charlie over the phone, “Young master, I have already sent some people to teach Elaine a lesson. I believe that she will definitely not dare to say a single word to you after she is released from the detention center.”Charlie replied lightly, “Okay then you did a very good job on this matter.”Isaac replied, “Young master, please forgive me for saying this but I think that your mother-in-law is simply too much. She tried to steal so much money from you. Don’t you think that it would be better for you to hand her over to the police and let them deal with her according to the law? She should at least be given a suspended death sentence. Why are you releasing her?”Charlie smiled wryly before he said, “Well, you do not understa

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!
