Chapter 98

Author: Lord Leaf
Charlie felt completely helpless at this time. Jacob had just broken the Yuhuchun vase in the morning, and yet, as soon as he had stepped out of the house, the old man had actually taken advantage of his absence to sneak out and explore Antique Street again.

That was just so typical of him. He would never learn from his mistakes.

Jacob laughed as he asked them in a mysterious manner, “I meant that these celadon cups are worth more than half a million dollars! Why don’t you guess how much I bought them for?”

Claire hesitated for a moment before replying, “Three hundred thousand dollars?”

“No! Guess again!” Jacob replied as he waved his hand.

“Two hundred thousand dollars?”

“That’s not right either!”

Charlie glanced at the pair of celadon cups in his father-in-law’s hand and he instantly knew that the cups were fake and only worth a few hundred dollars.

Just then, Jacob smiled as he exclaimed excitedly, “Haha! I bought it for only three hundred dollars! Isn’t that amazing?”

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6992

    Peter was taken aback, as he had never seen someone like Charlie, who so eagerly seemed to backflip his way into hell.Frowning, he growled, "I'm CIA and the person in charge of this investigation, so you will follow my orders in our car! Do you think this is your house, and you get to sit wherever you want?""What are you going to do about it? Kill me?" Charlie shot back impatiently. "Don't forget that this is Japan and not your jurisdiction. Lay a finger on me, and I'll kill you right here!"Oh, and I forgot—I'm not American, I'm Oskian! That means you are even less of a threat to me than you think, if not downright insignificant!"Peter was left dumbfounded, as Charlie clearly wasn't joking.He had taken plenty of lives, but it was still the first time he had met someone like Charlie, who was hellbent on getting killed.Even if Charlie insisted on getting in their car, all Peter had to do was kill one more and deal with an extra corpse.So, why is Charlie being all pompous ab

    In the car, both Tanya and Trevor were immediately puzzled as they couldn't understand what was going on, especially since they had been at odds with Charlie earlier.But now, he was pretending to be Tanya's bodyguard and insisting on getting in the same car with them?On the other hand, Peter clearly didn't want any surprises and told Charlie, "I'm sorry, Sir, but this is an important investigation, and we're only bringing in people actually involved in this case. No exceptions.""Don't give me that crap," Charlie snapped stubbornly. "You're not leaving unless you let me on, and that's final.""I'm not joking!" Peter snapped coolly, having to fight back his rage. "Step aside and avoid getting yourself into unnecessary trouble!"Charlie snorted in disdain. "You sure talk a lot, don't you? But like I said, you either let me in or shoot me, or no one's leaving. Although I'm quite sure you wouldn't dare do it in front of Mr. Mitsui."Peter was left exasperated right then.His job w

    Kathleen exclaimed in shock, "Ninjas?!"Before she could press Charlie for more details, she quickly realized that there may be a greater conspiracy when she understood that ninjas had infiltrated the CIA and even the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.Still, time was clearly of the essence, and she knew she shouldn't press for too many details, so she quickly asked, "What do you plan to do, Mr. Wade?""My wife traveled all the way here for a concert," Charlie replied. "Can't let the star go missing or die, can I? Take good care of Claire. This will be done soon.""Yes, of course," Kathleen replied as she stopped in her tracks.Watching as Charlie left, she then promptly returned to the party.She knew that Charlie's abilities were extraordinary, and mere ninjas wouldn't win against him, so she had no reason to worry about him.What was most important was for her to do what Charlie had asked.-Meanwhile, Yoshitaka had escorted Tanya, Trevor, and the special agents to their

    Peter looked at him and asked, "Trevor Kennedy, I presume?""Yes," Trevor replied, nodding. "As Tanya's boyfriend, I have the right to ensure Tanya's personal safety."Peter nodded. "Indeed, you do, though we were also going to bring you along for questioning anyway, since you're on the list of suspects as well. Don't worry, it's going to be a short interrogation, and as long as you cooperate, it will be over before long. Then, you can call Ms. Sweet's lawyer to pick you up at the embassy."Seeing as Peter was as polite as he was friendly, Trevor quickly nodded. "Fair enough. Let's go, then."Tanya had been nervous, but she felt a slight peace of mind as Trevor was coming along, and she smiled at him in gratitude.As they both stood and followed the special agents outside, Yoshitaka went up and slid his business card into Trevor's palm as he told him and Tanya, "Once you're done at the embassy but can't make it back in time, you can call me whenever. I'll postpone or cancel the co

    Tanya didn't expect the CIA to come looking for her all the way in Japan, and she backed away from them in panic while demanding, "What business do you have with me? I didn't break the law!"Peter shook his head, but spoke coolly, "We never said anything about that, but it's an order from Langley to bring you in to assist with an investigation.""How should I know if you're really CIA?" Tanya pressed. "At least let me call my lawyers to verify."Peter promptly whipped out his credentials and slammed them on the table. "There, and if you'd like, I have warrants that were issued by the FBI, the American Embassy, and the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The officials over there are from the ministry themselves, and they're cooperating with us after receiving the notice.""I still insist on calling my lawyer so he knows this," Tanya quickly said."I'm sorry, but you're not making any calls to prevent sabotage," Peter said, shaking his head again. "You won't have access to any mob

    Tanya didn't expect Kathleen to talk about activism.Still, considering that the latter was friends with Charlie, she could guess that Kathleen just wanted to diss her.However, she was afraid to actually argue against Kathleen, and she could only reply awkwardly, "Well, yes, but only a little… It's nothing that important and doesn't really warrant much attention, and certainly not yours, Ms. Fox."Kathleen, however, held her gaze as she said solemnly, "I have a piece of advice if you're willing to listen."Tanya nodded, immediately humble. "Do tell, Ms. Fox. I would definitely like to learn from you.""I'm not much of a teacher, but it's something I've picked up along the way," Kathleen replied quietly and solemnly. "See, whatever PR effect you intend to achieve, money speaks louder than words.""Money speaks louder than words?" Tanya blurted. "What does that mean, specifically?"Katheleen smiled faintly. "It's basically no different from actions that speak louder than words. I
