Chapter 997

Author: Lord Leaf
At this moment, Harvey suddenly realized from the expression on Charlie’s face that he has already undergone an earth-shattering change in his life.

He was no longer the pathetic jerk that did not attend school, had no father and mother, and was also despised by everyone around him.

He was now Charlie’s brother and the assistant of the chairman of the Travis Group.

Moreover, he was now drawing an annual salary as high as two million dollars!

If his ex-girlfriend were to find out that he had already gotten such a good job and position, her snobbish mother would probably kneel down in front of him to beg him to reconcile and get back together with her daughter.

However, Charlie was right.

From now on, that family was no longer worthy of someone like him.

This was not because Harvey was very full of himself. However, this was simply because Harvey knew that the reason why he could enjoy this good fortune was entirely because of his childhood brother, Charlie.

    Charlie smiled before he said, “Don’t you know what kind of person Mom is by now? Even if she is really in pain right now, she’ll turn it into a momentary pain. At the same time, she will also turn a short-term pain into a long-term pain. Even if Dad is planning to divorce her, I am afraid it will not be that easy for him to do so.”Claire was taken aback at this time. She suddenly felt a little enlightened.Based on her mother’s temper and character, it would be very difficult for her father to get what he wanted even if he wanted to divorce her.As she thought about this, Claire suddenly realized that her mother was only putting on an act when she said that she did not want to continue living anymore.After that, she felt much more relieved.As soon as they drove the BMW into the villa, they could hear Elaine cursing out loud: “Jacob Wilson, you old b*stard! Don’t you have a conscience at all? I’ve already suffered so much because of you and you are still trying to divorce me?”

    When Elaine saw that Jacob was so decisive, she replied angrily, “Okay, you can no longer live with me anymore, right? Alright then. We can both be separated for two years first. After that, we can go to court and file for a divorce then.”After she was done speaking, Elaine snorted before she said, “But Jacob, let me tell you I advance that I am a very narrow-minded person. If I find out that you’re living a better and more comfortable life compared to me after our divorce, then I’ll definitely feel very uncomfortable!”“You should understand better than anyone else the kind of things that I’ll do when I feel uncomfortable. I’ll definitely make you feel even more uncomfortable than me! That is the only way that my heart can finally be balanced!”“In other words, if you dare to go out and find a vixen outside and secretly enjoy life with her in the future, then I will definitely destroy your good things! After that, I’ll pester you every day and I’ll also follow you around like a sh

    It was obvious that Jacob was very desperate at this moment.When Elaine saw this, she felt even more victorious. After that, she said contemptuously, “Jacob Wilson, you d*mn old man. Why are you acting so pitifully right now? Are you trying to gain our daughter’s sympathy? Do you want me to bring up all of your previous love affairs in front of our daughter?”After that, before Jacob could even say anything at all, Elaine sneered as she said, “Jacob, you used to be so famous in school back then. Moreover, everyone in school also knows about the relationship between you and Matilda. However, even though you already have a girlfriend, you’re still being a womanizer. After that, you took advantage of me and ruined my innocence! I’ve been suffering and I’ve wasted half of my life because of you. Now, you’re actually thinking of divorcing me? There are so many scumbags in this world but none of them will ever be able to beat you!”Jacob felt as though his heart had been violently hit by

    When Charlie saw Claire heading to the bathroom in the master bedroom to shower, he quickly went to the guest bathroom on the same floor to take a shower.This was the benefit of living in a villa. There were so many bathrooms in the villa and they did not need to queue.Charlie took a bath quicker. When Claire came out of the bathroom, Charlie had already taken a shower and he was already lying on bed waiting for Claire.When Claire saw Charlie wearing a singlet and shorts as he laid on the bed, she was startled for a moment. After that, she blurted out, “Why are you sleeping on the bed?”Charlie smiled before he said, “Wife, didn’t you say that you’d allow me to be promoted some time ago? When Mom was missing because she was cheated by the MLM organization, my promotion was delayed for a while. Now that she’s back, you cannot stop me from getting my promotion, right?”“I…” Claire suddenly felt very embarrassed.She did not know how to answer Charlie’s question.She was the one

    Charlie said helplessly, “How can a couple not have any children together? We’re both normal people and we aren’t infertile anyway. If we don’t have a child, then we’ll become a joke to others. What if others think that you aren’t fertile? Do you really want them to look down on you?”Claire curled her lips before she said, “Then, if anyone asks me, then I will tell them that you’re the one who isn’t fertile then. Wouldn’t that be fine then?”After that, Claire said again, “Besides that, don’t you know that you’ve just been promoted to the second level? Do you know how many more levels you have to be upgraded to before you can be prepared to have children?”Charlie replied immediately, “I guess it must be the third level!”Claire hummed, “You can dream on!”After that, Claire picked up Charlie’s quilt from the floor before she threw it on top of him. After that, she said, “Each of us will be using our own quilts! You are not allowed to cross the boundary! As long as your hands, fe

    Charlie’s heart was thumping violently after asking the question. He didn’t know what Claire’s reply would be.At this moment, he suddenly felt an object hit his face, and he felt the soft texture of the object in the next second. It was the little teddy bear that Claire usually hugged to sleep.Then, Claire’s whiny voice resonated into his ears, “Hey, you’re so greedy. Usually, when playing mobile games, the further you progress, the more difficult the missions are. How can it be so easy?”Charlie pouted and said, “Dear, games nowadays can progress very quickly and easily. You can upgrade to Level 80 with a single slash!”Claire cleared her throat and imitated the computerized voice of the online platform’s customer service, “I’m sorry, dear, this kind of upgrade is not available in our system. May I suggest that you consider trying other games?”Charlie said frantically, “Oh no no, I don’t want to try other games. May I know if there is a shortcut for me to upgrade to the next l

    Claire said, “Please do not end the call yet. Please rate my service after the beep, press one for very satisfied, press two for satisfied, press three for not satisfied.”Charlie wailed, “One! Very satisfied!”Claire smiled gleefully and said, “Dear, thank you for your rating. This is the end of our conversation, see you again next time.”***That night, Charlie was tossing and turning, unable to sleep well.Although he had only been upgraded a level, this was the first time he had shared a bed with Claire since their wedding.Despite that, they were actually sleeping within the respective boundary. They used their own pillows and tugged in their own blankets.Of course, Charlie didn’t dare to cross the 38th parallel north between them. Otherwise, he would be extremely devastated if he was demoted one level in an instant!On the other hand, Claire couldn’t fall asleep too. She was very nervous and in jitters.Her heart was thumping so violently it almost jumped out of her rib

    Charlie was burning in the wrath of fury at the moment.He did not expect that there would be traffickers bold enough to extend their vile hands at the orphans!When he thought of the possibility of the children being sold to a beggar syndicate that might even disable them, he wanted to disfigure these human traffickers into a million pieces.He said into the phone, “Stephanie, where are you now? Are you at the orphanage?”“Yes!” Stephanie answered frantically, “I just came back from the police station, Mrs. Lewis and the others are still there.”“Good,” Charlie said, “Wait for me in the orphanage, I’ll be there right away!”He ended the call and hurried out without even informing Claire about it.Coming down the stairs, Elaine, wearing shiny red pajamas, urged impatiently, “Charlie, go and make breakfast, I’m starving.”Charlie frowned indignantly and blurted, “Make your own breakfast if you’re so hungry.”Elaine gritted her teeth and cursed, “Oh! You think you’re so amazing

    Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

    As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

    The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

    On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…

    Charlie was driving Jacob to Thompson First when the latter received the text from Matilda.Seeing that they were reaching the front gates, Jacob promptly snapped at Charlie, "Charlie, stop the car now!"Charlie did so and asked in curiosity, "What's wrong?""Matilda just texted me," Jacob replied, showing the chat log between him and Matilda.Charlie was just glancing at it nonchalantly when he saw that Matilda's contact name was 'AAA July Florist'."Wait, why is that Aunt Matilda's contact name?" He exclaimed in surprise."I changed it."Jacob explained gingerly while reading through the text Matilda sent. "Her profile picture is an iris, so I changed her contact name to a florist since I'm mostly worried Elaine would peek into my phone.""Anyway, she's asking if I'm attending her wedding with Yolden. They would send us an invitation if I accept, extended to our whole family… what do you think I should say?"Charlie asked in return. "You're planning to skip it, aren't you? T

    Then, Matilda suggested, "How about this—I'll ask him before deciding." "I'll pass on inviting the rest of my former classmates too. They're too vain and love comparing, so I'd rather not have anything to do with that. Also, there are our Korean friends who have it together, and they were telling us to invite them if we were going to get married. We have to keep our promise, right?""Yeah—then, it's basically decided. Aside from Charlie, we shall invite our colleagues and Korean friends while we wait for an answer from Jacob."Yolden nodded and said, "Now, I'll talk about the honeymoon—cut me short if you have a different opinion."Matilda nodded, resting her chin on her hands and smiling. "Shoot. I'm all ears."Feeling a little embarrassed by Matilda's glowing stare, Yolden took a sip of his ice water before continuing, "My idea is to head to the States for our honeymoon after the wedding…"He trailed off, staring at Matilda and waiting for a response.However, she was merely

    "Oh, Jacob…?"Matilda chuckled awkwardly. "Just today, he offered to buy me dinner, but I said I didn't have the time, and I also told him about our wedding… So, we should invite him since he's aware of it.""Jacob offered to buy you dinner?" Yolden exclaimed in surprise. "Did he say why?""Nope," Matilda shrugged, smiling. "Probably just dinner between old classmates."However, she was actually smart enough to guess Jacob's intention even though Jacob was inviting her somewhere near campus. That was why she had also mentioned she was marrying Yolden while turning down Jacob, all so that he would give up on her.After she had managed to get over their past fling completely, she didn't want to give Jacob false hopes before she walked down the aisle.In the same regard, she didn't want to worry Yolden, and therefore, had deliberately discouraged Jacob.Be that as it may, Yolden was smart too.He knew about Matilda and Jacob's past and that her son, Paul's full name was Paul Jam

    Before Charlie had arrived, Jacob was still furious that Matilda would soon marry Yolden.After Charlie came, however, he was instead worried that Matilda would send him a wedding invitation.Meanwhile, Matilda and Yolden were discussing their list of guests.They had different social circles, but most of their friends were Stateside, and they only had some distant relatives in this country.Still, they had colleagues in Aurous Hill. Matilda had classmates too, but she was out of touch with them aside from Jacob, whom she often met.Still, as they discussed who should be invited, Matilda first suggested, "Let's go through everyone. First, our Stateside friends… I don't think we should tell them at all since it's a long journey, and inviting them would seem tactless. What do you think?"Yolden nodded, smiling, "I was just thinking the same thing. We're close with our Stateside friends and always keep in touch, but inviting them to our wedding might be a stretch. We'd just hit a wa

    With that being said, once Matilda was thrown in the mix, Elaine would suddenly become an African honey badger, with every bit of black air force energy that was implied.As such, if Jacob had managed to be brave and take that one step back then, Charlie would have tried to help, stopping Elaine from harassing Jacob or Matilda.However, the reality was that Jacob had to bungle the chance when Matilda offered it to him.That was why the best option was for Jacob to understand that he couldn't get together with Matilda now so that he would feel much better.And since he had always been a coward, Charlie's slight intimidation cleared his head considerably.He then sighed, "Well, that's just life—you don't always get what you want, and you should never try to claim what you couldn't. I couldn't bring myself to choose Matilda over thirty years ago, so not being together now only makes sense.""Now, I can only pray that Elaine never finds out… or at least that things don't get out of h
