Back From Prison! Chapter 270: Making A Friend With A Prescription.
Knock, knock! There was a knock on the door. Jonathan opened it to find Daisy standing outside. "Are you heading out?" Daisy asked, noticing his attire. Jonathan nodded: "I have a dinner appointment tonight." Without divulging further details — mere words could hardly encapsulate the complexity of the situation — Jonathan moved on. "Oh, I was about to ask you out for dinner! But if you've made plans, nevermind then." Daisy said, a note of disappointment in her voice. "Right, I'll come by tomorrow morning. We can attend the auction together." Jonathan offered, reminding himself of the crucial evening ahead. He had to help Gladys navigate through her troubles and couldn't afford to drag Daisy into it. "Tomorrow?" Daisy seemed hesitant: "Or, or maybe we shouldn't go?" "Are you busy or you don't want to go?" Jonathan questioned, puzzled. Daisy looked awkward as she gritted her teeth: "I... I find it very upsetting!" The prospect of witnessing her home being auctioned off and sol

Jonathan advised Gladys to refrain from worries or actions for the moment and to stay home awaiting news. Whether there would be success or not, only the upcoming days would reveal. As long as his remedy worked, they would have a chance to convince the Wise family to vindicate Gladys. The following day, Jonathan woke early and knocked on Daisy's door. The pair dressed, then ate breakfast before catching a ride to the auction. Although Joel alone was conducting this estate auction, by hiring a dedicated auction house for the event, every aspect would be taken care of. By the time Jonathan and Daisy arrived, there were seven or eight lines of people in the auction hall, appearing to be more than thirty in number. This auction was only for the real estate. Thus, most who attended were drawn by this particular estate. Daisy's estate had a rich history, having stood for nearly thirty years. This gave it a prime location advantage, making it a lucrative buy whether kept or resold at
Back From Prison! Chapter 272: Rejecting Emotions.
Jonathan flashed a reassuring smile at Daisy, saying: "Miss Wang, for you this house might just be an item that brings you some profit. But it holds the entirety of my childhood memories, so its significance is different". "If I have set a price that makes you see no more profit, maybe you could consider doing me a favour and let me have it!" "If Miss Wang is still upset, I can even pay you ten million out of my pocket as compensation!" Jonathan's remarks were more than polite. Of course, he said this because he was afraid that Sloane would lose her temper and go all out, regardless of the price. In that case, he'd rather compromise and add a little more money to end it. Though his account was not short of funds, it did not mean he could be reckless. A few hundred million was manageable, but billions would be a matter of national concern! "Ha ha, alright then, for your sake!" Sloane gave a cold laugh before standing up and storming off. She would only take the ten million com

"Even if you don't cure him, you'll receive a significant consultation fee, at least twenty million. Our family will pay it.” Carnelian brought up the matter of compensation again. After all, this was a question of benefits. From her veiled words, it could be deduced that Carnelian was acting on behalf of Leonard, hence her allusion to the promise made by the Kyle family. "I can do the checkup, but I have a condition.” Jonathan replied indifferently. "Just say it.” Carnelian responded nonchalantly. Truthfully, if Carnelian was representing the Kyle family to meet Jonathan, his preferences no longer mattered; he would have to go regardless. This wasn't coercion but a simple fact. However, if they could persuade Jonathan to examine Brian willingly, it would be more desirable than him attending in resentment. The family would surely agree if his request weren't unreasonable. "Weren't ordinary doctor may not suffice, but even top-tier hospitals failed to cure him. Hence the utmost
Back From Prison! Chapter 274: The Regrets in Life.
Nathan was a crownless king of the Northern military region, poised to become the supreme commander. How could his fighter jet have been so effortlessly rigged with explosives? This incident took place over two decades ago, yet certain aspects remain eerily peculiar. There's no doubt a grand conspiracy lurking beneath. And Brian, the patriarch of the Wang family and Nathan's biological father, certainly must be privy to the truth of what transpired. But Jonathan knew he couldn't pry. For doing so would risk exposing his identity. Logically speaking, since Brian was Jonathan's paternal grandfather, he should be forthright with him. Yet Jonathan feared that Nathan's death might have been tied to Brian. It's even possible that he masterminded it. Once interests are at stake, even familial bonds can fray. The Wangs, being a premier family in the nation, meant that kinship ties were always tenuous. "Our generation has heard much of Nathan's legacy. But who could've foreseen the i
Back From Prison! Chapter 275: Aubrey Bows His Head.
Jonathan said: “Reschedule your meeting. Tonight, come with me to see Charles's grandfather." Gladys gripped her handbag tighter, her eyes widening: “You mean the elder Mr. Wise?" In New York's establishment, the older one gets, the more valuable they become. Many older adults worried they couldn't reach high positions when they were in power, but those who had been in the establishment for decades had extensive networks and were significant players. Especially someone as renowned as the elder Mr. Wise. Moreover, Aubrey had started this whole mess. If she could meet the elder, Mr. Wise, she could explain everything clearly. He could quickly restore her innocence if he didn't favor his grandson. Gladys hadn't expected Jonathan to arrange a meeting with such an influential figure for her sake! "Okay, I'll call my manager." Without hesitation, Gladys immediately pulled out her phone and called her manager. Even if they managed to meet with Star's senior manager, it wasn't sure h
Back From Prison! Chapter 276: Storms Successively Descen.
After Aubrey ushered them out, he lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and declared: “Jonathan, I won't forget your face!" The implications of such a statement were far from pleasant. Yet, Jonathan, an open-minded man, retained his composed demeanor and responded with a smile: “To be remembered by Master Aubrey is my fortune. But I hope you won't forget to absolve Gladys either." "Humph, even if I wanted to, I couldn't forget!" Charles grumbled coldly. Despite his resentment towards Jonathan, the task was assigned by his grandfather, and he had no choice but to comply. "Good then." Jonathan smiled and began to stride forward, casually saying: “Master Wise, you may return. There's no need to see me off." Jonathan harbored no expectations of Aubrey's kindness when he brought the matter to Grandfather Baldwin. He even anticipated offending Charles. But achieving one's goal without offending anyone was practically impossible. There was only sometimes a solution that pleased all parties
Back From Prison! Chapter 277: Rootless Weed...
At this point, Kieran, with his beer belly, had finished his bath, wrapped a white towel around his waist, lying on the bed with his legs crossed and a cigar in his mouth. He was picturing Gladys's beautiful face and hot body, and he couldn't help but feel excited. "This woman is truly captivating!" Kieran chuckled wickedly to himself. As for the possibility of Gladys not coming, he hadn't considered it at all. The fame of Gladys had already faded. If he added another devastating blow, her peaceful exit from the entertainment industry would be a tough challenge. Unless Gladys wanted to destroy herself, she would undoubtedly have to serve him tonight! Thinking about this, Kieran couldn't help but feel triumphant. Although not bring glory and riches, his position in Star company allowed him to "taste" many female stars. Countless public goddesses had become his playthings. Every time he thought about it, he felt an immense excitement. Knock, knock! A knock on the door sounded
