However, Donald never expected reality to be so cruel even though he had already planned everything perfectly.Anthony had directly rejected Donald’s proposal without any hesitation whatsoever. Besides that, he even said that his youngest son could only blame himself for the predicament that he was in. This made him very angry.After getting into the car, Donald continued cursing as he said, “Anthony, that old dog! He really does not know what’s good for himself! I would have taken his life if I did not have to worry about getting into a lot of trouble!”On the contrary, Sean was secretly feeling very happy.He had initially been very worried that Anthony would truly be able to cure his younger brother.Unexpectedly, after visiting his clinic, Anthony had actually completely refused to treat his younger brother. As a result, Sean would not have to worry about having a strong competitor on his path to inheriting the Webb family fortune.However, he could not publicly display his f

When Donald saw that Sean had already begun to take action, he nodded in satisfaction as he praised him, “Good job, Sean! You have already learned to observe the fine details so that you can take advantage of the situation to advance forward!”Sean smiled before he said, “Dad, I have already been following you around for so long, thus, I have learned and picked up some of your skills. However, I still have a lot to learn from you as I am still far behind you.”“No,” Donald said seriously, “It is good enough that you noticed that Jasmine’s bracelet is relatively old and worthless. That is already a very big improvement. Moreover, you even took the initiative to buy her a nicer and more expensive bracelet. That proves that you are already learning to take action because you are much more mature and stable now! That is not bad at all. You did very well!”Sean was overjoyed when his father praised him. When he saw Cain looking at him with a desperate expression on his face, Cain smiled

Sean felt a little sullen in his heart. Both he and his father were standing in front of Jasmine right now. Yet, unexpectedly, Jasmine had actually said that there was an even more important guest compared to them. Who else in Aurous Hill could be more important than his father and himself?In other words, who else in Aurous Hill could possibly have even greater status or power compared to the Webb family?Even though he was feeling a little upset, Kian continued speaking in a very gentlemanly manner as he said, “By the way, Jasmine, I’ve specially prepared a gift for you. I am not sure whether you will like it or not.”Jasmine frowned before she said, “Mr. Webb, you should keep the gift. I do not need anything, and I do not want you to spend so much on me. Besides, I simply cannot accept your gift for no reason at all.”At this time, Sean hurriedly took out the gift box Cain had given to him before he said earnestly, “Jasmine, why are you being so polite with me? In fact, I notice

Sean truly felt like dying at this very moment.He would never have dreamt that the broken bracelet on Jasmine’s wrist would turn out to be a relic left behind by her mother…Moreover, he had even said that the relic left behind by her mother was nothing more than a piece of garbage…This was a complete disaster!Jasmine was already originally cold and indifferent toward him. Therefore, he was initially planning to rely on this bracelet to earn himself some points.Unexpectedly, he had only dug his own grave…This time, his score in Jasmine’s mind had probably been reduced to a negative score.At this time, Donald, who had been standing not too far away, could not help but feel a little puzzled as he stared at his son who was left standing all alone in a daze.Didn’t his son go over to give Jasmine the gift just now?Jasmine must have been very happy to receive such an expensive gift.If so, why did Jasmine drive away in such haste?As he had some doubts in his heart, Donald

Claire came out of the bedroom as she stretched her waist and asked Charlie, “Do you have something on today?”Charlie replied, “I am going to attend a friend’s birthday party later at noon.”After that, Charlie asked Claire, “Wife, did you need something?”Claire nodded slightly before she said, “Yes, I wanted to do some shopping, but if you’re busy, you can go ahead and do your own thing! I will ask Loreen to accompany me.”Charlie replied, “Sorry, my dear wife. You can go shopping with Loreen today. I will accompany you some other day.”Claire smiled slightly as she said, “Okay, then.”Charlie’s mother-in-law, Elaine, had a very black face as she said, “Oh, Charlie, are you going to attend your friend’s birthday party? Is he old?”Charlie nodded as he said, “Yes, he is eighty years old.”Elaine sneered before she said, “Are you trying to use your set of silly skills to try and fool those old men so that you can cheat them out of all their money?”Charlie simply replied, “I

Charlie truly felt like laughing when he saw Elaine’s performance.He knew that Elaine was really short of money right now. She usually spent a lot of money all by herself, but she had to be very sad now that all of her money was completely exhausted.Now, Elaine felt even more depressed when she saw that Jacob was going to The Heaven Springs for dinner tonight.Sure enough, Elaine said to Jacob, “No! I want you to give me the twenty thousand dollars you are going to spend on dinner tonight!”“Why should I do that?” Jacob was also very anxious and he blurted out, “Elaine, I am warning you not to go too far! All of our family’s savings are already in your hands. Even if you do not want to give it to me, it’s fine. Yet, you are still trying to ask me to give you my own money?”Elaine had a guilty conscience, but she continued speaking stubbornly, “Can’t you just go to a cheaper place for dinner tonight? You can just spend ten thousand dollars on dinner and give me the other ten thou

After that, Claire looked at Elaine before she said, “Mom, can you stop making things difficult for dad already? He does not usually spend much money anyway. Why are you confronting him now that he simply wants to treat some of his friends to dinner?”Elaine said, “I am simply trying to save some money for the family! Are we the kind of family who should be spending twenty thousand dollars just for a meal?”After that, Elaine glared at Jacob before she said, “No matter what it is, you will have to give me the money today, whether you want to or not!”In truth, Claire already knew what her mother was up to.She knew that her mother was just a very materialistic person who was mad about money. If her father refused to give her mother the money today, it would be impossible for him to leave the house.At this time, Claire quickly cut in. “Mom, stop making things difficult for dad. You want ten thousand dollars, right? I will give it to you.”“Okay!” Elaine replied in excitement, “Th

When Charlie saw how persistent Claire was, he nodded as he said, “Alright then, wife. Thank you for your hard work. I will leave now.”“Alright, go!” Claire then quickly asked, “Since you are attending a friend’s birthday banquet, did you prepare a present for him?”Charlie hummed before he said, “Yes, I’ve prepared a gift for him already.”Claire hurriedly asked, “What gift did you prepare for him? Make sure that it is not too petty or cheap, otherwise, he might feel a little dissatisfied!”Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “I have already prepared something that I made myself for him. It is not the gift that counts, but the thought behind it that matters anyway. After all, my friend does not really care that much about money. Therefore, I believe he will definitely love my gift.”“That’s great!” Claire nodded before she smiled and said, “If that is the case, you should leave now!”“Okay.”At this time, Charlie got up before he put on an ordinary coat. After that, he bid

Charlie smiled. "All is well. Aurous Hill is a safe place."And with that, he introduced Yolden to his maternal grandparents, who were enthusiastic to learn that he was a classmate of Ashley's.As the family invited Yolden to take his seat, Keith told his sons, "Be sure to make our guest feel at home—the professor was your sister's old friend, after all."Then, turning to Yolden, he said, "Do drink more if you can, but feel free to refuse if you can't. We're not that strict with drinking around here."Yolden could stomach his alcohol despite rarely drinking, and he did not hesitate to agree to drink with them, seeing that it was a pleasant evening for the Ackers.Keith then turned to Charlie, "You drink too, boy. Just ask your aunt to drive you home later."Charlie smiled. "It's alright, Gramps. Everyone on this hill is a friend—I'll ask Don Albert to send a car."Keith laughed heartily. "Wonderful! I shall drink with you too!""Really?" Holly quickly interrupted. "Did you get

Yolden didn't go into detail despite apologizing, as he was sure the Ackers would understand, so he didn't have to rub it in twice.However, it had been twenty years since Ashley's passing, and they certainly could take a brief mention in stride. That was why none of them found it offensive, especially since Ashley and Yolden were good friends and classmates.Charlie was just going to introduce Yolden, and so he said, "Yolden, I'm sure you recognize Uncle Kaeden? He often makes public appearances."Yolden nodded. "Yes, it's only natural. Your reputation precedes you, Mr. Acker!"Kaeden politely replied. "You flatter me, Professor Hart."After a brief handshake, Charlie moved on to the others and was surprised when he arrived at Merlin as Yolden spoke before he could, "This must be Chief Merlin Lammy, pride of the Oskians! I've seen your interviews and articles, and I really admire you!"Merlin smiled humbly. "I'm just a police chief—nothing to be proud about. The rest of you have

Yolden was inwardly relieved, hearing that Charlie really didn't mind revealing himself to his future wife and stepson. He had led a down-to-earth life and earnestly loved Matilda and wanted to spend the rest of his life with her.That was why he hoped that whenever they mentioned Charlie, Matilda wouldn't merely think of Jacob Wilson's son-in-law, who had coincidentally met some locally influential figures through his feng shui business.He was rather bad at pretending and even worse at lying.Still, he would have understood and respected Charlie's decision if the latter had refused, and he was therefore surprised Charlie had agreed to it so easily.Naturally, he was not aware that Charlie intended to take his new family under his wing and was happily riding shotgun as Charlie drove up to the Champ Elys villa.Keith Acker and the rest of his family were already there waiting, and Charlie's three uncles, aunt, and Merlin were outside to receive them.Keith and Holly would have

Yolden then asked, "By the way, there's something I'd like your opinion for.""Do tell," Charlie replied politely."Autumn and I know who you really are," Yolden said. "But that's not the case for Matilda or Paul… Well, Paul's smart, so even if he had no idea who you are specifically, he'd still have a hunch that you're someone incredibly wise and influential. That's why he really respects and worships you."Pausing, he then continued, "Well, now that Matilda and I are going to start a new family, I hope that I can be honest with her in every way possible as her husband. However, I still think I should ask about your opinion when it comes to your identity, so if you think I can tell Paul and Matilda, I'll find a time to tell them. But if you think I shouldn't, Autumn and I will understand and respect that."Charlie was actually surprised that Yolden would ask permission over something like that, and it made him even more sure about Yolden's personality.When it comes to the reall

Charlie chuckled. "Don't sell yourself short, Mr. Hart. There are plenty of business folk who got so used to their comfort zone that they became caught in the illusion that they can be successful in anything they do. It's a mindset that leads to them blindly developing new projects and new competition, and then they end up losing big."If memory serves, there have been real estate businesses that started mineral water brands, search engines that tried the car industry, e-commerce sites attempting social media, and vice-versa. All of them are multi-billion-dollar companies venturing into new frontiers, but all to unimpressive outcomes."Pausing, Charlie then continued, "You've mentioned rising above the competition amidst the development of the new energy industry. That would get anyone's attention, and it is why I believe that you definitely will make a strong impression with your strategizing and knowledge of the basic principles."Yolden found it hard to refuse, seeing that Charli

Having lost it all, Jacob really looked like he wouldn't be getting back up.But fortunately, he had a pillar in the form of Elaine.In fact, Elaine would serve to be a container, whipping Jacob into shape if he got too full of himself.But on the other hand, now that Jacob was utterly despondent, she would be forcing him to smile and function in general.Elaine's attitude to the entire issue was clear as well. Even though Jacob had just lost his job, she would make him go shopping with her in Dubai even if he fell into a coma. Even if he was dead, she'd just cremate him and bring his ashes along.Hence, with Elaine's firm grip around Jacob's leash, he went on strolls, going shopping and taking selfies with Elaine everyday, eventually easing the toll on his mood and spirit.-Back at Aurous Hill, Charlie was preparing for Yolden Hart and Matilda Hall's wedding as it approached.Yolden was a schoolmate of his mother, Ashley Layna Acker, as well as Charlie's elder.And while Cha

"See you." As soon as Charlie hung up on Matilda, Don Albert's call came right after.He sounded nervous as Charlie answered the phone, saying, "Master Wade, I think I might have gone too far…""Wait, what's this about?" Charlie asked."Your father-in-law, of course…" Don Albert sighed. "You asked me to leave him hanging for a while, so I did. I even refused when he asked to book a room in Heaven Springs.""Well, that's not a problem, is it?" Charlie shrugged. "He and Zachary ganged up for some real mischief. As you are Zachary's boss, it's right that you refused him because you didn't appreciate what he did.""That's just it. I thought that approach was just right as well," Don Albert quickly said. "I wasn't playing nice when Mr. Bay of the Calligraphy and Painting Association called me either. That's when he said he'd try to save Jacob's position as vice-president, but I told him it's none of my business."I then hung up on him without much thought, only for Zachary to tell m

Meanwhile, Charlie was downstairs in Claire's office, waiting to pick her up and head home.That was when Matilda called him, asking as soon as he answered, "Charlie, do you know how Jacob is doing? He never answered any of my texts—is he going to be alright?""I wouldn't know," Charlie replied. "Both he and Elaine are in Dubai on a trip… What's wrong?""He resigned," Matilda sighed. "I only saw the public statement that the Calligraphy and Painting Association posted this afternoon. It says that he tendered the resignation himself, but it doesn't really feel that way. I wonder if he's at odds with other members of the association…"Charlie was actually surprised to hear that Jacob had resigned.He had told Zachary to expose the truth of the bronze sculpture fraud case to teach Jacob a lesson so that Jacob would understand the meaning of true pain.However, he anticipated that Mr. Bay would at least keep Jacob around with an unimportant job even if Jacob did lose some money and e

Falling apart in both mind and spirit, Jacob was crying as he disembarked and took a cab to the hotel.Elaine, who had been lying around for 24 hours, was stunned speechless as she watched him enter, crying like a child.In contrast, Elaine looked like a mother to Jacob just then as he threw himself into her arms and bawled, "Darling… That prick Mr. Bay screwed me over… I have nothing left now…"Taken aback for a moment that Jacob would bawl in her arms like that, Elaine soon came to her senses and patted his back as she comforted him, "Oh, stop crying already. Who cares about some Calligraphy and Painting groupies? We certainly don't! Just hear me out and don't ever go there again!"Jacob kept sobbing, "But I care… I want to go…"Annoyed, Elaine's hand that had been patting Jacob a moment ago slid down to his hip and pinched him viciously before he noticed."Ow!" Jacob yelped in pain, and he demanded indignantly, "What was that for?!""Shut up!" Elaine snapped, glowering. "I wa
