Chapter 427
Author: Lord Leaf
When Albert saw that Charlie was already losing his patience, he hurriedly waved his hands and instructed his men, “Beat him up now!”

A group of strong men rushed forward immediately before surrounding Mr. Hicks, and they started punching and kicking him. They only stopped when he had already been beaten almost half dead.

Mr. Hicks lay on the ground as he cried out in pain. However, the worst had yet to come. At this time, Albert suddenly said coldly, “I will give you half a day to leave Aurous Hill. If I still see you loitering around Aurous Hill tomorrow, I will kill you with my bare hands!”

The dying Mr. Hicks coughed weakly before saying, “Don Albert, please have mercy on me and give me two days of grace at least. Let me treat my injuries before I leave…”

“You can go to the next province to receive treatment instead!” Albert replied icily. “Call your family and ask them to hire an ambulance to take you away. Make sure that you stay away from Aurous Hill from now on! If you die,

    When Charlie saw this scene unfolding before him, he knew that only the two beautiful women could look at and appreciate one another. He felt that there was no hope for him anymore.Therefore, Charlie went into the other room and changed into the shorts that he had brought with him today.Since Charlie changed into his shorts relatively quickly, the two women had still not come out of their bedrooms after he came out of his room.He then headed out into the courtyard first before slowly entering the huge hot spring pool.Charlie could not help but let out a huge sigh of relief as the warm water gradually covered his body.After a short while, he heard the sounds of footsteps approaching him. Claire and Loreen had already changed into their swimsuits and were walking toward the yard at this time.Charlie raised his head to look at both of them and his eyes lit up immediately.The swimsuit that Claire was wearing was slightly conservative, but it also outlined her perfect figure,

    Charlie had a calm expression on his face as he faced Loreen’s sudden confession. He merely replied, “We just happened to meet a few scumbags, and that is why I decided to teach them a lesson. Don’t take it to heart.”Loreen replied seriously, “No matter what it is, I would really like to thank you!”After that, Loreen sat down beside Charlie and quickly stretched out her hands as she hugged him in her arms.Both of them were wearing very little clothes, and Charlie could instantly feel Loreen’s smooth and tender skin rubbing against him.Charlie’s body tightened immediately and he quickly said, “Loreen, don’t do this. I don’t want Claire to see us acting like this.”Loreen chuckled before she asked, “Does that mean I can hug you and do whatever I want if Claire cannot see us?”“That’s not what I mean…” Charlie replied helplessly.Loreen hugged him a little tighter before she said stubbornly, “I want to hug you, and it would be best if Claire could see us acting like this now.

    Charlie was completely at a loss for words at this time. What did Loreen mean? Was she willing to become his mistress and underground lover just because of him?Still, how could he possibly agree to this kind of request?First of all, his feelings for Claire were real, and he was really sincere toward her. Even though Claire had been initially dissatisfied with her grandfather’s arrangement, she finally agreed to marry Charlie although her whole family was laughing and ridiculing her for her decision. Of course, Claire had never looked down on him before.Furthermore, when the auntie who had taken care of him in the orphanage fell ill, Claire was the one who lent him the money so that he could pay for her medical expenses. Charlie would never be able to forget Claire’s kindness.So, how could he possibly agree to let Loreen become his lover?At this time, Claire, who was fast asleep, suddenly moved a little.Charlie was startled and quickly pushed Loreen out of his arms.Loreen

    As Charlie, his wife, and Loreen were bathing in the hot spring pool, Marcus, who had had the words ‘pathetic jerk’ engraved on his forehead and his plastic girlfriend who now had a crooked nose had hitched a ride in a dilapidated van back to the city.At this time, Marcus, who was sitting inside the van, kept his bloodied forehead covered out of fear that the van driver would see the words engraved on his forehead.Both of them had stopped the van on the way out of the Champs Elys Spa Resort. They had negotiated with the van driver and come to an agreement that the van driver would send both of them home for two hundred dollars. Right now, all Marcus wanted was to get home as soon as possible. He did not want any more trouble!However, the van driver could see the blood that was oozing out of Marcus’s forehead from the rearview mirror.After observing him for a long time, he could not help but ask in surprise, “Young man, are you hurt?”Marcus replied angrily, “This has nothing t

    The police officer replied coldly, “Okay, then. You are insulting a law enforcement officer now! That means that you are blatantly resisting the law! Don’t blame us for taking actions against you, then!”As soon as he had finished talking, the police officer took out his pepper spray and aimed it directly at Marcus’s face before spraying it on the latter’s face.Marcus could feel the burning pain in his eyes at this time, and he subconsciously reached out his hand to rub his eyes, completely forgetting that as soon as he removed his hands, the two bloodied words that were engraved on his forehead would be instantly exposed.“Oh, my God…” One of the police officers exclaimed out loud. “Just look at him! He has some words engraved on his forehead!”“What kind of tattoo is that? That’s really very hardcore!”“Hahaha! It’s no wonder why this young kid likes to call other people a pathetic jerk. It is simply because he has the words ‘pathetic jerk’ engraved on his forehead!”When Marc

    Harold was also slowly losing his temper.What the hell was this?He had seen Marcus being handcuffed at the side of the road by the police officers. That was the reason why he decided to come over to say hello to him. However, he did not expect this guy to actually curse at him and spit at his face instead. This was f*cking disgusting!Harold said angrily, “Mr. Lloyd, you are too much! I just came over to ask you about the situation out of concern since we are friends. So, how can you treat me like this?!”Marcus yelled immediately, “Who the f*ck do you think you are? Do you really think that a poor man like you is actually worthy enough to become my friend?! You are nothing more than a pathetic jerk in my eyes! Are you trying to butter up to me so that you can get closer to me? Get lost!”“I…” Harold felt seriously wronged.However, he did not dare to go against Marcus at all. After all, Harold knew very well that the Lloyd family was countless times more powerful and stronger

    At this time, Claire suddenly asked, “Don’t you have to go back to work?”Loreen stuck out her tongue before she said, “Well, my job was originally to run around outside. Moreover, I have never met the chairman of Emgrand Group before ever since I started working there. Therefore, he has no way to control me at all. In a way, I am actually an unsupervised employee. So, I guess it is okay for me to skip work occasionally.”After that, Loreen spoke up once again. “Since both of you have something on, I will send you home first.”Upon arriving at the carpark, Charlie realized that Don Albert was standing next to Loreen’s car. Moreover, the spot where Loreen’s car had been badly scratched yesterday had also been repaired.When Albert saw them walking toward the car, he immediately greeted Charlie respectfully. “Mr. Wade, did you have fun?”“Not bad.” Charlie looked at the rear of the car for a few moments, and when he realized that it was looking as good as new, he knew that Albert ha

She did not even realize that Loreen had always been trying to get closer to her husband!Claire even invited Loreen to move into their villa to live with them. His silly wife! She was inviting and leading a wolf directly into their room!However, Charlie could not explicitly refuse this kind of thing. Moreover, he did not have a solid reason to refuse.Therefore, even if he was dissatisfied, he could only hide his feelings for the time being.On the other hand, Loreen was extremely ecstatic.If she could truly move into the villa with them, she could spend time with Charlie day and night!

    Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

    Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

    While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

    "Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

    Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

    Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

    That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

    Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

    Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
