The expression on Stephanie’s face was filled with joy and surprise when she saw Charlie.She ran toward Charlie immediately as she grabbed hold of Charlie’s arms with both of her hands before she asked, “Brother Charlie, why didn’t you come back to visit us at the orphanage for such a long time?”Charlie did not feel uncomfortable at all even though she was grabbing her arms with her hands. On the contrary, he was like her elder brother, and he said affectionately, “I have not been doing well after leaving the orphanage. Therefore, I feel a little embarrassed to come back to the orphanage to visit all of you.”As soon as Stephanie heard his words, her eyes turned red, and she choked as she sobbed and said, “Mrs. Lewis told us that you have been working on a construction site after you left the orphanage. She also told us that you would always send all of your hard-earned money to her so that she could buy us books, clothes, and food. Why didn’t you come back to see me at all? It ha

Although she did not look too bad herself, she could not help but feel that she was lacking and inferior compared to Claire.Moreover, she was just an orphan who had no father or mother. She did not have anyone to support her or back her up in life. Now that she was working at the orphanage, she was still working and relying on charity to support herself. She did not earn a lot of money for herself.Even though she was not making a lot of money, she also had the same attitude as Charlie. She would donate all of her money to the orphanage, hence, at the end of the day, she was just a poor girl who had nothing at all.In this aspect, she felt that she could not be compared to a career woman like Claire at all.She felt a little envious and she said to Claire nervously, “Hello, sister-in-law. My name is Stephanie Lewis. We are meeting for the first time today.”Claire nodded before she smiled and said, “Hello, Stephanie. My name is Claire Wilson.”Stephanie looked at Claire before s

Charlie had lived in this orphanage for the past ten years, from the time when he was eight until he turned eighteen years old. Therefore, he had a lot of affection for this place.In the past, he did not have the face to come back because he was still a little destitute.Now that he already had a little money, he felt that it would be good for him to go in to see what other items the orphanage needed. That way, he would be able to help them to solve this problem when the time comes.Charlie nodded slightly before he said, “Then, let’s go in and take a look around the orphanage.”Stephanie was overjoyed. She hurriedly grabbed Charlie’s arm before she dragged him into the orphanage.Charlie could only allow her to drag him around as he held onto his wife, Claire’s hand.Claire could feel her heart beating a little faster, but she allowed Charlie to continue holding her hand as he led her into the orphanage.The Aurous Hill Welfare Institute was built in the last century and had a

Stephanie brought Charlie to the dormitory area of the orphanage. Charlie could see the dormitory that he used to live in at a single glance.After looking out the window, Charlie saw a dozen or more children who were about one to two years old playing under the leadership of one of the aunts in the orphanage.He could not help but ask, “Stephanie, why are there so many young children at the orphanage now?”Stephanie replied, “There are many irresponsible parents who sent their children directly to the entrance of the orphanage after giving birth to them. Some of these children were abandoned because of congenital disabilities or diseases. Some of them have the same fate as me, and they are abandoned because they are girls.”Stephanie could not help but sigh when she spoke of this.After that, she said angrily, “There are also many children who have been abducted by human traffickers but were subsequently rescued by the police. Some of the children are too young, and it is impossi

When the three of them stepped out of the orphanage and were about to head toward the restaurant, a pleasantly surprised voice sounded in their ears, “Charlie, Stephanie!”The both of them turned around and saw several figures walking toward them.These people were all the friends who had grown up with him in the orphanage.However, there were many people from this group that Charlie had basically not seen again ever since he had left the orphanage. The only person he had kept in touch with after leaving the orphanage was his close friend, Harvey.During Charlie’s early years in the orphanage, he had a very reticent attitude and personality because of his parents’ accidental death. He was very introverted and withdrawn, and he would not even speak a single word to anyone else for the whole day.He was often isolated by the other children because of his personality.Charlie could still remember that Harvey, who was a little older than him, would always stand up for him and play

After he was done speaking, he said, “By the way, I haven’t asked you. Aren’t you supposed to be in Lancaster? How did you come to Aurous Hill so quickly?”Harvey smiled before he said, “It is really very coincidental that my company has arranged for me to come over to Aurous Hill for a business trip. I only arrived here earlier in the afternoon today. As soon as I got off the bus, I saw all of you chatting in the group chat. That’s why I decided to come here as soon as possible!”Charlie asked curiously, “Didn’t you start your own business? Why are you working for others again?”Harvey smiled bitterly before he said, “Business is bad. How could anyone’s business be doing well now? The economic situation in the past two years has not been easy, and it is not easy to run a business at all.”After he was done speaking, Harvey looked at Claire before he smiled and said, “Charlie, is this my younger sister-in-law?”Charlie nodded before he said, “Yes. This is my wife, Claire.”After

The window of the Mercedes-Benz was wound down. Charlie peered at the man behind the window and instantly recognized him.He was Max Wyatt, the guy who had taken the liberty to organize today’s gathering in their messenger group.However, Charlie and he were just normal acquaintances.Max was dressed in a suit that seemed tight over his chubby figure and leather shoes. He stopped the car when he saw the crowd, poked his head out of the car window, and said, “Oh, hey, sorry guys for keeping you waiting.”A tinge of arrogance and hubris hovered in his eyes. He cleared his throat and explained in a smug tone, “Oh, there was a traffic jam on my way here, that’s why I’m late.”Someone gaped in surprise, “Wow, Max, is this your car? When did you buy it?”Max laughed pompously. “I just got it two days ago.”Charlie squinted in realization. No wonder this guy was so eager in organizing the get-together, he just wanted to show off his brand new car to his childhood friends!Someone aske

“Is she our friend from the orphanage too?” Max mumbled to himself.He started to dig through his memories, trying to think of any fragments related to this beautiful girl.Still donning the pretentiously polite yet smug smile on his face, he looked at Charlie and said, “Hey, you’re Charlie, right? Long time no see!”Charlie grinned and said, “Butt Trumpet?”Butt Trumpet was Max’s nickname back when they were in the orphanage. He used to be a chubby glutton who farted a lot, and more importantly, he farted wherever he went and whenever he felt like it. He would fart in classes, during game times, during meals, and when sleeping.At that time, everyone was troubled and in misery due to his farts, hence the nickname—Butt Trumpet.Max’s face turned green when he heard Charlie mention his nickname, but before he could say anything, a young man behind him chided indignantly, “Hey, Charlie, watch your tongue! How dare you embarrass our Manager Wyatt right in front of everyone? Max is n

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
