Sheldon’s words touched Cadfan’s heart immediately.Although Cadfan had taken the initiative to apologize to Sheldon and Jaime about Helen and Sophie’s affairs as soon as they arrived, deep down in his heart, he did not want Sheldon and Jaime to be troubled by this issue.So, when Sheldon took the initiative to change the topic just now, he had inevitably catered to Cadfan’s innermost thoughts.So, Cadfan hurriedly said, “Sheldon, you are right. We have to be united and work together to find out who is the mastermind behind the scenes!”With that said, Cadfan asked Sheldon, “Sheldon, who could possibly be trying to go against us?”Sheldon subconsciously replied, “Dad, I have a feeling that this matter is related to the Wade family, but I do not have any evidence pointing directly at them to prove that they are indeed the mastermind behind this matter. I can only make some speculations that the Wade family has a part in this matter based on the short video platform. Furthermore, Au

As soon as Sheldon heard this, he subconsciously said, “Dad, Aurous Hill is a very mysterious and unpredictable place! My younger brother went missing there. If Jaime were to go to Aurous Hill in a high-profile manner, I am afraid…”Cadfan waved his hand and said, “You don’t have to be afraid! My guesses are generally not wrong! What we have to focus on right now is to find a way to lure that man out of his hiding place.”Sheldon could not help but have a very mixed and entangled expression on his face.Sophie’s whereabouts were still unknown, and no one knew whether she was already dead or still alive. Therefore, Sheldon could not help but feel extremely reluctant to let Jaime take the risk to head to Aurous Hill at this time.The reason why Steven had gotten kidnapped was because he had kept up such a high-profile as soon as he arrived in Aurous Hill.If Jaime were to also put on a high-profile as he headed to Aurous Hill, then there was an 80% probability of Jaime encountering

Jaime had already had a crush on Quinn for many years, but he had only told his sister, Sophie, about this matter.The reason why he had never dared to bring this matter up was because he knew that the Schulz family would never allow him to be together with Quinn.Lord Schulz had always been a very condescending person, and he had never once looked up to any other families in Oskia.Moreover, Lord Schulz had always been very eager to achieve a major breakthrough in the overseas markets.Therefore, he had especially hoped that as the eldest grandson of the Schulz family, Jaime would marry the daughter of a top and influential European or American family, or even a European royal princess.In that case, the Schulz family would be able to exchange resources with them.Otherwise, if they were to join hands with a family in this country who had a weaker overall strength compared to the Schulz family, it would be clear that the Schulz family was being taken advantage of.This was the

He had initially thought that it would be impossible for his grandfather to allow him to pursue Quinn. However, Jaime would never have expected to gain his grandfather’s full support instead.This instantly increased his confidence to pursue Quinn countless times.So, Jaime immediately said, “Grandpa, in that case, I will head to Aurous Hill now under the pretext of attending the upcoming concert to see if I can lure the mastermind out!”Cadfan nodded in satisfaction before he smiled and said, “I’ve already asked Arrington to invite the head of the top family in Sudbury, Donald from the Webb family, to come here for dinner today. I believe that he should be here in a while. You do not need to leave in such a hurry. It is not too late for you to set off after having dinner.“Okay!”***At this moment, at Shangri-La hotel in Aurous Hill.Sophie was already feeling very anxious and impatient after getting locked up in the room for the entire day.At six o’clock in the evening, Isa

Isaac’s words made Charlie hesitate slightly.He had not decided whether he wanted to meet with Sophie and Helen yet.The main reason was simply because he did not know what kind of mentality he should have when facing his enemy’s daughter or a woman who had already been in love with his father for so many years.However, Charlie knew it very well in his heart.He knew that since things had already reached this point, he would have to meet with the pair of mother and daughter sooner or later.Still, he had not decided whether or not it was the right time to meet them now.When Isaac saw that Charlie was still hesitating, he hurriedly persuaded him, “Young Master, to be honest, since you will have to meet the both of them sooner or later, wouldn’t it be better for you to meet them sooner rather than later?”As he spoke, Isaac said again, “Look. Miss Schulz’s current status is equivalent to being kept under house arrest at this time. If you refuse to meet her now, I am afraid that

So, Donald and Sean followed Arrington to the dining hall inside the manor.At this time, Cadfan, Sheldon, and Jaime, who represented the three generations of the Schulz family, were seated at the dining table.When Cadfan saw Donald and Sean walking into the dining hall, he took the initiative to stand up and greet Donald with a smile on his face. “Mr. Webb, I have already heard of your great name for a very long time! I finally get to meet you today!”Donald hurriedly replied in a flattered manner, “Lord Schulz, you are being too polite. Compared to you, I am nothing more than a small businessman engaging in some small businesses. I am still way too inferior as compared to you…”Cadfan waved his hand before he smiled and said, “How could that be, Mr. Webb? The Webb family is the top and most influential family in the whole of Sudbury. So, why are you belittling yourself?”After he had spoken, Cadfan hurriedly said again, “Come, Mr. Webb! Let me introduce you to my family. This i

Charlie’s image appeared in Donald’s mind as soon as he heard Cadfan’s question. He could not help but feel deep fear in his heart as he replied, “Lord Schulz, to tell you the truth, I initially suspected that my youngest son’s illness was also caused by someone. But even after investigating and looking into this matter, I could not find any relevant clues at all. So, I believe that the possibility of his illness being a natural cause might be greater, then. Perhaps my son had encountered some sort of serious trauma, or perhaps he was stimulated by something that is way beyond our comprehension.”Cadfan asked him, “Then, have you ever asked your son about any unusual memories or incidents that he had encountered before or after the accident?”Donald replied truthfully, “I have already asked him about it, but he told me that he had a memory gap before the incident, and he cannot remember anything during that time at all.”Cadfan nodded thoughtfully before he said in a deep voice, “If

As he spoke, Cadfan explained, “Anyone who has studied history would know that we suffered a huge catastrophic ordeal in Oskia in 1937. At that time, many top metaphysics families had already calculated and predicted this disaster one or two years in advance. Therefore, many of them had already fled and relocated overseas in advance. Those who did not escape were either masters who stayed behind to serve the country and their compatriots, or those masters who have insufficient abilities or limited skills, and did not foresee the disaster at all.”“Those top masters who stayed back also devoted themselves and their lives to the country. After the eight years of war, some metaphysics masters died or got injured, and we subsequently lost a large number of local metaphysics masters. However, the metaphysics masters who successfully fled overseas before the disaster survived.”Donald could not help but ask, “Lord Schulz, there is something that I do not understand. Why did all of these me

Jacob wasn't really concerned with the invitation. He wouldn't be going anyway, and he wouldn't tell Elaine about it.Right now, he had a question.After hanging up on Walker, he asked curiously, "A designated driver would be just a few dozen bucks at most. Why get Walker?"Mr. Bay sighed meaningfully. "Jacob, my boy—it's not just my job description you must handle when you succeed me. You must understand the unspoken rules of the workplace as well as interpersonal relationships."Raising his right index finger, he chuckled, "Earning the loyalty of subordinates is a science. But it has to be a carrot and stick—never just the carrot, while offering them chances to be of service.""Take Walker, for example. As his boss, buying him lunch is 5 points. Ask for a favor, but it's 50 points instead!""As a leader, you should also make sure to give requests that are reasonable. That way, they will consider you to be their ally, or soon enough.""People are strange that way—psychology sim

Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

Jacob put a hand on his chest. "Don't worry—everything is going to be fine when my son-in-law takes the stage."As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown number called his phone.He answered, hearing a familiar voice he couldn't quite place, "Good afternoon. Am I speaking to Mr. Jacob Wilson?""Yes. May I ask who I am speaking to?""Albert Rhodes, owner of Heaven Springs at your service. Would you happen to remember me?"Hearing that, Jacob turned on the speaker excitedly as he continued, "Oh, yes, Don Albert! Of course I remember!"Mr. Bay's eyes lit up when he heard Albert announce himself, and he mouthed, "Is that really Don Albert?!"Jacob nodded repeatedly, his vanity burgeoning.Mr. Bay was naturally thrilled too, and he leaned closer to listen just as Albert spoke humbly, "If it's alright with you, Mr. Wilson, please don't address me as Don Albert. It's just a title some brats came up with—you are Master Wade's father-in-law, which means you have seniority over me. So,

Mr. Bay was overjoyed, seeing how quickly Jacob agreed to it. "Thanks, Jacob! I owe you!" He exclaimed, but soon added, "It's past four now, and that bunch like to fraternize in the room before they eat. Could you get the room soon? I think they'll be arriving soon."Then, he moved closer to add quietly, "If you can get a Diamond Room like before, I will bring you along. I'm not going to lie, these are officials with decision-making authority. Being friends with them might propel us to new heights!"Jacob already knew that Mr. Bay was sucking up to his friend, otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned when the dinner was organized by said friend. Understanding that the friend must be important too, Jacob was at once buoyed.After all, he had presumed that becoming vice president was the most he could achieve.Now, if he could attend that dinner with Mr. Bay and establish a good relationship with those bigwigs, he would have his turn when Mr. Bay got promoted too.With that in min

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…
