Chapter 663
Author: Lord Leaf
The crowd started to walk toward the banquet hall where the birthday celebration was about to begin.

Lord Moore exchanged a few words with Charlie and went to sit at the main seat.

Sitting next to him was his eldest son, third son, and fourth son.

Among the second-generation heirs of the Moore family, Reuben’s father was the eldest son, and Jasmine’s father was the second son, but he had died young, hence, Jasmine was the only one left in this line.

As for the family of the third and fourth sons, they were relatively young and their children were still in the teenage or elementary school age, thus, they were not considered in the inheritance competition.

The rest of the guests sat down at their assigned tables.

Charlie sat with the Quinton family, the White family, Albert, and so on.

Donald and Sean were sitting with a few local families. Some of them were families who were busy buttering them up, and they surrounded the Webb family’s father and son, continuously flattering them

    At this moment, he received a text from Jasmine: [Master Wade, I hope you don’t take what happened earlier personally. With the Moore family around, the Webb family will not be too presumptuous.]Charlie smiled and replied: [Of course, I don’t mind, they are nothing but a bunch of circus clowns.]Meanwhile, Donald and Sean were sitting in the VIP seats on the other side.Sean looked at Jasmine, then at Charlie, and saw that both of them were looking at their phones. When she put it down, he picked it up, and when he put it down, she picked it up again. It was obvious that they were exchanging texts.As he watched their exchange, he was even more agitated. He had added Jasmine as his Facebook friend, but she had set her profile as private!In fact, she rarely responded whenever he chatted with her.However, as he watched the frequency of her chatting with Charlie now, she was so acute and responsive, almost as though she was afraid to miss his message for even a second. She even h

    Sean shivered in elation at the thought of killing Albert tonight!His father was right, Don Albert was Charlie’s firearm in Aurous Hill!If they wanted to attack Charlie, they must first remove his firearm!Not only must they remove his firearm, but they also had to turn the firearm into their own!That way, the firearm would become the bridgehead for the Webb family to march into Aurous Hill in the future!At that time, Charlie would pay the price with his own life for insulting them and tackling Sean’s girl!The Quinton family and the White family would also pay the price for not taking the Webb family’s side!Donald looked at Sean and said flatly, “You must learn to calm down and put up a poker face, don’t let your true emotions show so easily on your face and body language.”Sean quickly retracted his grin. “Okay, Dad, I understand!”“Good.” Donald nodded, putting Charlie’s matter behind him, and he asked, “Have you prepared the birthday gift for Lord Moore?”Sean nodded

    After the three sons, Jasmine and Reuben walked on stage, knelt in front of Lord Moore, and presented their gifts.Oscar then announced:“The eldest grandson, Reuben Moore, presents a pair of imperial jadeite ornaments, worth 80 million.”“The eldest granddaughter, Jasmine Moore, presents a painting, The Blinding of Samson by Rembrandt, worth 70 million.”After the family finished their rounds, the guests stepped forward one after another, giving gifts.Although the guests’ gifts were not as valuable as the Moore family members’, they were also quite pricey between the range of 10 to 30 million.Next, Donald and Sean stood up. Sean held the gift carefully and walked toward Lord Moore with his father.On his way, Sean shot a scornful look at Charlie.He was about to give Lord Moore a priceless piece of authentic painting from Vermeer, it had to be the most valuable gift among all the guests!He was certain that Charlie’s gift would pale in comparison to his gift, he would know

    In Sean’s opinion, he was convinced that there was nothing Charlie, the deadbeat moocher, could give to Lord Moore that was comparable to Vermeer’s painting!Thus, he concluded that he would win over Charlie big time and also become the winner in the gift-giving round who surprised the guests and impressed Lord Moore the most.After all, in Sean’s view, Charlie was just a worthless loser who had chosen to marry into his wife’s family, it was impossible for him to come out with a decent gift, so no matter what his present was, it couldn’t possibly be on par with the precious painting he had given Lord Moore!Therefore, he sneered, “Grandpa Moore, I heard that Master Wade has been lingering in the feng shui fraud for some time now, he must have accumulated a significant fortune from all the scamming he did. I bet his birthday gift to you must be a precious treasure that is worth hundreds of millions, or maybe even billions of dollars!”Then, he turned his sneer at Charlie, “The paint

    Charlie smiled at him with feigned ignorance and retrieved a small wooden box from his pocket.Charlie had bought the wooden box by the street for five dollars. He had bought it because he thought it was inappropriate to put the pill directly into his pocket or wrap it with a napkin.Sean couldn’t conceal his disdain when he saw the wooden box and sneered, “D*mn, what the heck is that? Did you buy that by the street for ten dollars?”Charlie smiled. “You are half right. Yes, I bought it by the street, but it only cost me five dollars instead of ten.”Everyone gaped in shock at Charlie’s remark!Did he even take Lord Moore seriously?How could he come to Lord Moore’s birthday with a five-dollar wooden box?!Even if there was something in the box, it would be some lousy junk, right?He wouldn’t put something valuable inside such a shabby-looking box.Hence, everyone started booing at Charlie.Even Reuben covered his mouth and tutted contemptuously.Sean howled indignantly as i

    No one would have imagined that the 80-year-old Lord Moore would actually kneel to Charlie!Supposedly, when someone lived to be 80 years old, his parents and elders might have already passed away. No one, not even God himself, deserved the privilege of getting him to kneel before them.Moreover, Lord Moore was the head of the Moore family! The largest and most prominent family in Aurous Hill!Their 80-year-old family patriarch had literally knelt before a young man in his twenties!This was incredulously extraordinary and bizarre!Sean was equally dumbfounded.What the hell?!Had the old man actually knelt for a piece of enhancement pill?You should’ve said so sooner!I could’ve used the 400 million dollars on the Vermeer’s painting to buy enhancement pills, it would have been enough to cater to your needs until your 200th birthday!I didn’t even ask you to kneel to me, betrothing Jasmine to me was all I asked for!Meanwhile, the Moore family members were all donning differ

    Sean thought that the old thing must have lost his mind or someone had knocked him hard on the head, otherwise, why would he kneel and bow to Charlie?!Lord Moore was the most senior among all the attendees today. Even though the Webb family was at a higher level than the Moore family in terms of the social class pyramid, his father’s power and assets were lesser than the Moore family, not to mention, Lord Moore was an elder.As for the guests, many of them were from average and above average families, but they were still worth at least over 100 million.There was only one loser in this hall, and that was Charlie!Yet, Lord Moore chose to kneel before this loser and even bowed his head to him!Why?!What the f*ck did Charlie have that he didn’t?!Why did Lord Moore kneel to Charlie so humbly?!In other words, he would give his granddaughter to this loser, wouldn’t he?!Sean was extremely depressed and infuriated as he thought about it!If he didn’t tarnish Charlie’s influence

    Lord Moore had been very enthusiastic after receiving the Rejuvenating Pill, and he wanted to swallow it the minute he received it.After all, he had seen the magical effect materialize on Anthony after the latter had taken the pill, so he was very worried about damaging it when he held it in his hand.The only way to feel assured was to eat it!Since Charlie had said so, Lord Moore nodded and said gratefully, “Okay, Master Wade, I’ll take it now!”Then, he carefully put the pill into his mouth and swallowed it!As the pill was being digested, he felt that the pill had transformed into a stream of heat that surged into his limbs and veins, warming his body, and every cell in his body was full of vitality. It was as if he had returned to his teenage years, feeling youthful and energetic.Just like Anthony, Lord Moore felt that every part of his body had been nourished by the pill to the point that it was glowing with long-lost youth.Surprisingly, he found that the old wounds and

    Zachary's voice was choking with tears. "Please, don't just see how much it actually is—the problem is that we're just amateurs and sold that bronze sculpture as a forgery. That's something we can't change…"Jacob remained brazenly stubborn. "Don't give me that crap—that's not what I'm talking about. All I ask is for you to get that bronze sculpture back. I'll send you the 300 thousand later, and I don't care about anything else. Get it done, or I'm talking to Charlie. I'll even confess that I was up to no good, but I want it back! Hell, it's not like Charlie would do anything to me even if he finds out!"Zachary really burst into tears right then, sobbing, "Please, you can't do this! Master Wade won't punish you, but he will punish me! I'm where I am today only because he put a good word in with Don Albert for me… if he knew what we were up to such treachery and flips, I'm screwed!""What treachery?!" Jacob demanded, furious. "How is this treachery?! You came up with the plan, didn

    Seeing that their flight was being slowly towed toward the runway, Elaine quickly urged Jacob, "If you're calling him, do it right now! They're towing our plane to the runway, and we won't be able to call him once we take off!""Right!" Jacob exclaimed excitedly. "I'll call him right now—if he doesn't get it done, I'll tell Charlie to destroy him! He's Don Albert's henchman, and even Don Albert sucks up to Charlie. That would definitely pressure him enough!""Okay! Elaine nodded, excited too. "Then call him right now, or we might never find the buyer again!""Yeah!" Jacob promptly whipped out his phone and called Zachary.Meanwhile, Zachary had presumed that Jacob wouldn't find out before his flight took off, so he was immediately nervous when Jacob called him.His nerves aside, he was afraid to not answer at all.Who knew why Jacob was calling. It could just be a false alarm.Hence, as he answered, he feigned calmness and asked, "Hello again, Mr. President! Shouldn't your fli

    In reality, Jacob wouldn't usually be this bold, but he dared to run his mouth against the air marshal because twenty million was just too much money.Money emboldens, just like alcohol—while one wouldn't even mouth off for a couple thousand, one would murder for a million.And they were talking about twenty million here!Moreover, Jacob's rightful twenty million was going to his enemy, which incensed him further!Still, Elaine's words quickly calmed him because there was no scenario in which he would come up on top if he ended up behind bars.Elaine had been imprisoned for three days and ultimately ended up leaving with a broken leg.Heaven knows what would happen if he ended up arrested for fourteen days.With that in mind, he stopped arguing with the air marshall and returned to his seat, dejected. Clenching Elaine's hand, tears of grief rolled down his cheeks as he asked feebly, "What should I do now, dear? I thought it was junk and sold it for 300 thousand but it's actual

    Jacob bellowed at the middle-aged man right then, "Then don't give me shit if you can't pay up! I only have one request, and that is I want off this plane right now!"Elaine came to a realization then, and she quickly asked, "Don't tell me… That thing we just saw online… you're the one who sold it yesterday?!"Jacob was on the verge of tears as he nodded. "Yes, it was me! That's why I want it back no matter what it takes!"Elaine became anxious as well. They were talking about twenty million, after all! Even if they lived off bank interest, they could still afford to spend ten grand per day for up to eight years!How could they let that slip through their grasp?!Pointing at the air stewardess, Elaine immediately snapped, "Hey, he's talking to you! Open the door, you hear?!"While the air stewardess was unable to handle both of them at once, a young man in a white collared shirt and black pants strode over, telling Jacob and Elaine, "Sorry to interrupt, but I'm the air marshal of

    Seeing that comment, Elaine promptly turned to Jacob, "Dear, I don't think they made it up. It says the antique was treated like a Renaissance forgery and sold for 300 thousand to the dealer, but it actually was medieval and sold first thing this morning."Jacob's mind seemed to fade entirely in an instant, and he dropped his glass of champagne before he knew it, wetting his trousers.Elaine quickly pulled out a towel to wipe it, exclaiming, "What's wrong?! Why did you wet your pants?!"Then, realizing that Jacob's eyes and mouth were gaping wide while he sat frozen stiff almost as if he were dead, she promptly shook him, "What's gotten into you, Jacob? Are you alright?"As Jacob came to his senses, his eyes were suddenly blood-red.Suddenly on his feet, he bellowed in fury, "Fuck! My twenty million! Open the door! Open it right now! I'm getting off this plane!"The cabin crew and the other passengers were all shocked by his sudden bellow, and Elaine was just as confused. "Your t

    While Zachary was caught feeling utterly helpless, the news that Raymond had made 20 million in a day was spreading like wildfire. Even though Zachary had already threatened Mick to not spill the beans, the problem was that all of Aurous Hill's Antique Street knew that over dozens of customers had come to Raymond's shop first thing in the morning.As such, everyone was curious—Raymond had supposedly made a blunder just yesterday yet now had dozens of people going to his shop? What on earth was he pulling?Hence, when most of the other collectors started to leave after failing to get the bronze sculpture, many gossipers came up to them to ask about it.For their part, the collectors were not hiding the truth, so they gave them a summary.Soon, all the antique dealers of Aurous Hill were left pondering the meaning of their existence.After all, they were told these collectors had prepared 20 million before rushing over to Aurous Hill in the night, yet they had all failed to buy th

    Zachary was instantly relieved to hear that Jacob's flight was taking off soon.The issue at hand was troublesome, but he would at least have time to come up with a plan if he was given more time.Moreover, Jacob didn't know anything and would be in Dubai in a few hours. Most importantly, he wouldn't be bothered with Aurous Hill gossip when he arrived, giving Zachary more time to deal with this mess.As such, Zachary quickly said, "Oh, nothing, Mr. President. I was just calling to check on your flight, but since you're flying now, I'm sure the air stewardess will be asking you to turn the flight mode on. I shan't be a bother now—I wish you safe travels with the missus!" Seeing how cordial Zachary was, Jacob chuckled, "How nice of you. I'll definitely get you some local souvenirs!""Oh, then allow me to thank you ahead of time, Mr. President!" Zachary exclaimed, as subservient as ever."Uh-huh," Jacob replied. "Well, I'm hanging up now. Let's catch up later.""Yes, yes, yes, let

    Mr. Cardensky's forgery syndicate had made the bronze sculpture—all Zachary had done was talk Jacob into buying it, and Jacob himself had made some money after Raymond bought it.That meant the entire plot had nothing to do with Zachary as he was just a mediator at best.In other words, if the bronze sculpture was worth nothing, he didn't lose anything… although he wouldn't make a cent even if it was worth a hundred million.However, he also knew all too well what Jacob Wilson was like.In fact, in this world, he was only second to Charlie when it came to knowing what type of man Jacob Wilson really was—not even Claire or Elaine would win against them.He was a dead man.That was Zachary's immediate thought on the matter, should Jacob ever find out.After all, Jacob was precisely one of those people who didn't play by any rules—no buyer's regret? No seller's remorse? None of that applied to him.Not even the Gods could make Jacob offer a refund if he scalped them. And vice vers

    As Mick Crane had established a corrupted hierarchy in Vintage Deluxe, he had to make sure his position was never threatened by Raymond Cole.That was why he wanted Raymond gone, and it was obvious from that how important self-gain was to him.However, though he plotted to protect this job with a salary of several hundred grand per annum and incentives worth just as much, he didn't think that doing so meant he had missed out on 20 million.And to add insult to injury, that 20 million had ended up in Raymond's pocket.Mick wasn't just thunderstruck—he wished he was dead.Hanging up on Trippy right then, he called Zachary directly since Zachary had told him earlier that text notifications from his number would be silenced.Zachary was just about to fall asleep when his phone began buzzing.Already annoyed when he picked up his phone, he immediately snapped at Mick when he saw who the caller was.
