Chapter 646
Author: Lord Leaf
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 slightly before he said, “Thank you for coming all the way here to pick me up today.”Jasmine hurriedly replied, “Yes, this is my responsibility. After all, it is the Moore family’s honor that you are able to attend my grandfather’s birthday banquet today.”As she spoke, Jasmine hurriedly trotted two steps forward as she took the initiative to open the door of the co-driver seat before she bowed slightly and made a gesture at Charlie as she blushed and said, “Master Wade, please get into the car.”Charlie nodded before he got into the car directly without being courteous or polite to Jasmine at all.If anyone saw Jasmine, the famous and prestigious young lady of the Moore family, personally taking the initiative to open the car door for a young man, they would be so shocked that their jaw would be hanging out in the open.However, no matter which aspect it was from, Charlie felt that it was only natural for him to be worthy of Jasmine’s act of opening the car door f

    In the car.Jasmine drove as she spoke to Charlie, “Master Wade, my grandpa has been talking about you for a few days now. He was afraid that you would not have the time to come and attend his birthday banquet. I believe that he will definitely be very happy to see you!”Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “Since I have already promised you that I will be coming to attend the birthday banquet, why would I break my promise to you?”“Mm!” Jasmine nodded happily before she said, “I think that the person my grandpa wants to meet the most today is you.”As she spoke, Jasmine could not help but sigh as she said, “I do not know what is going on with my grandpa. He has been talking about you continuously over the past few days ever since he went to see the genius doctor, Dr. Simmons, a few days ago. He also told me in secret that his greatest wish is to see you at his birthday banquet today.”Charlie was stunned for a moment before he chuckled lightly.He knew the reason why Lord Moo

    Charlie smiled before he said, “This is the price they have to pay for harming others.”“Yes!” Jasmine nodded as she said, “These people should be held responsible for their own actions!”As they spoke, Jasmine had already driven her car into the Moore family mansion.At this time, Zeke, Graham, Albert, Liam, and Doris had all already been waiting in the Moore family courtyard for a long time. As soon as Charlie stepped out of the car, the group of people quickly surrounded the both of them.When Jasmine stopped the car, she quickly said, “Master Wade, please sit down and wait for me to open the car door for you.”Charlie hurriedly replied, “You don’t need to be so polite to me. I can just get down by myself.”Jasmine quickly replied, “No! No! Master Wade, you are our most distinguished guest today! I have to give you the most common courtesy. Otherwise, my grandpa will definitely scold me!”As she spoke, Jasmine quickly pushed the car door open as she ran over to the passenger

    Sean’s loud growl attracted a lot of curious glances from the guests who passed him by on the second floor, wondering why the young master of the Webb family suddenly became angry.Sean glared at them in annoyance and shouted, “What are you looking at? Get lost!”The frightened guests quickly turned their heads and looked away. Sean, with his gloomy face, gestured for Cain to come to him.Cain sprinted toward him like a loyal puppy and asked diligently, “Yes, Young Master Webb, what do you need?”Sean pointed to Charlie who was standing beside Jasmine in the yard and muttered indignantly, “Check that dude’s identity. I want to know who the heck he is!”Cain looked curiously in the direction where Sean was pointing and was shocked when he saw the person, so much so that his eyes opened wide!Wasn’t that Charlie Wade?!He recognized the guy even if he turned into ashes!Charlie was the reason why Marcus, his precious son, had the words ‘pathetic jerk’ carved on his forehead by Al

    Jasmine was so attentive and gentle toward Charlie, yet so cold and stern toward him, this was so insulting!Sean gritted his teeth in dismay and commanded Cain coldly, “I’ll give you a task right now. If you do it well, wait for awesome rewards, but don’t come to see me ever again if you fail!”Cain spruced up and burst out, “Alright, Mr. Webb, speak your orders. I’ll do my best!”Sean shot a ghastly glare at Charlie in the yard and said, “Later, think of a way to humiliate Charlie in front of Jasmine! Teach him a lesson. I want him to be embarrassed so badly in front of Jasmine! It’s best if you can make him leave this place like a defeated dog!”Cain grinned excitedly upon hearing Sean’s demand. It was the best chance to take his revenge! He blurted excitedly, “Okay, Mr. Webb! I’ll go down and meet him now!”He had done some investigations on Charlie. The latter had managed to fool some of the VIPs in Aurous Hill with his feng shui tricks that had earned him the title ‘Master W

    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

    Jacob couldn't even be bothered by the looks others were giving him, and he called Mr. Bay immediately.Mr. Bay had already gone home and was seated on the couch with his wife, watching his phone and waiting for Jacob to call and demand an explanation.Mr. Bay knew that he had to answer for this and that if he avoided Jacob, it may well be a confession that he had screwed Jacob over.So, to avoid unnecessary trouble, he decided to come clean with Jacob.Naturally, by coming clean, he meant passing the buck as his wife had suggested.Hence, as he answered Jacob's call, he immediately sighed in embarrassment, "Hey, Jacob. I'm so sorry about that…"However, Jacob was so furious he immediately started bellowing, "Mr. Bay! Are you fucking with me here?! You said that the resignation letter was more of a formality, but you just made it public instead! So, all those things you said about helping me were just a trap, was it?! You're despicable! And to think I've been so good to you, even

    The repeated flights had left Jacob tormented.Even before he actually had the time to enjoy Dubai, he had already gotten sick of the place and didn't want to ever return.And on the flight, he couldn't stop his thoughts from going astray.Now that he was not getting back the money he had lost, his only hope was Mr. Bay.Fortunately, Mr. Bay was serious about his promise that he would at least save him a job as department head. That was why, despite his thoughts running astray, he never considered the thought that he would be kicked out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.As soon as his flight landed, he didn't wait to turn off his phone's flight mode, waiting for the internet connection to return so that he could ask Mr. Bay about the meeting.Once he did, he received a ton of messages from public accounts to acquaintances—many had already found out that he had resigned from the post of administrative vice-president and wanted to ask how he was doing.And Matilda was

    The Calligraphy and Painting Association was certainly efficient—soon after the meeting was dismissed, the news that the administrative vice-president had resigned was posted on their official page and social media.The notice was simple and never mentioned what Jacob had done, only that the administrative vice-president had asked to resign for personal reasons. The request had since been voted upon, and all members had agreed to it.And that was how a simple and short message kicked Jacob out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association entirely.In the city, other associations closely connected with the Calligraphy and Painting Association were the various cultural societies and circles of antique enthusiasts and the Senior University. In fact, most fans of the public page of the Calligraphy and Painting Association were from the Senior City, and every lecturer, student, and even guest lecturer were subscribed.As a matter of fact, that was entirely Jacob's doing. After his lect

    There weren't that many members in the Calligraphy and Painting Association—just a handful over twenty.Hence, at Mr. Bay's request, everyone showed up at the conference at 1 pm.He chose the afternoon as there were a handful who were away on outreach, including Walker, who was subbing for Jacob's lectures.Once the entire Calligraphy and Painting Association save for Jacob was informed of the mandatory meeting, every member was there on the hour, seated primly and in attention in the huge conference room.Mr. Bay didn't waste his breath on the preamble either—as soon as he saw that everyone had arrived, he announced, "Everyone, I've gathered you here today because our administrative vice-president, Jacob Wilson, has been alleged to be involved in a certain malicious scheme."Last night, Mr. Wilson submitted his resignation to me, and after a discussion with my vice-presidents, we've all decided to hold a vote. It will be open to every member in the association as we will be decid

    Having sent his resignation letter, Jacob had no idea that it would be the catalyst for his dismissal.He didn't sleep well at the rundown motel either and had dark circles under his eyes as he rushed to the airport early the next morning.Clearing the checkpoint and boarding his flight, everything went smoothly until his flight to Dubai lifted off at 10 am.-Meanwhile, the other vice-presidents of the Calligraphy and Painting Association had arrived at Mr. Bay's office.They all had the same goal—pressure Mr. Bay and get Jacob kicked out of the association no matter what it took.Naturally, they knew that Mr. Bay most definitely would have to help Jacob since Jacob was close with Don Albert. If Mr. Bay insisted on protecting Jacob, they shouldn't insist, or Jacob would hear about it, and the man would bear a grudge.Even so, as the vice-presidents entered Mr. Bay's office and closed the door behind them, one of them couldn't help asking, "So, Mr. Bay—how do you intend to deal
