The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 765
Early the next morning. Claire went to her office after eating breakfast.Jacob sat in the living room, sulking and glowering. He shot a silent and disdainful glare at Elaine when she walked into the living hall.When he thought about the two million dollars that Elaine lost in the silly mahjong game, the wrath of fury reignited inside him.He didn’t have much money himself. The two million dollars were the savings they had accumulated over the years, including the money that he earned from reselling the antique, but now, it had all gone down the drain.In fact, Jacob felt that he should pick up his old tricks and begin trading at Antique Street again, and thus, he asked Zachary to sell his antiques.Elaine pasted a sheepish smile on her face when she saw Jacob, feeling guilty and sorry, but Jacob treated her as if she was invisible.She dared not complain about it, so she turned to Charlie and chided agitatedly, “Hey, Charlie, since you have nothing to do around here, quickly

“Oh?! A very wealthy client?” Elaine asked in surprise.“Yes, we have an appointment at noon.”“That’s awesome!” Elaine shrieked in glee and said, “Hurry and go! Make more money while you’re at it, it’s best if you can earn enough for the furniture and appliances purchase!”“Hmm, I’ll see what I can do.”In truth, Charlie already had the plan sorted out. He planned to take out two million from his card to buy the furniture and claim that it was from the feng shui job.He didn’t want his wife to live in this dilapidated house anymore. Besides, their room was only a wall’s gap from Elaine’s, they even had to share a bathroom. It was getting quite annoying and irritating now.If they moved to the villa, they would occupy one floor while Jacob and Elaine stayed on a different floor. That way, they could reduce the chances of bumping into each other and the friction along the way.Therefore, he bluffed about the feng shui job, but his plan was to go to the bank after lunch with Lord

Before Charlie arrived at Heaven Springs, the Moore family’s statement had spread throughout Aurous Hill and even to the upper-class society in the South Region.No one would have imagined that the Moore family, the number one family in Aurous Hill, would openly challenge the Webb family, the number one family in Sudbury.It seemed that an exciting thriller was on its way.Tyler and Reuben, however, were enraged when they heard the news.What the hell was going on in Lord Moore’s mind?!It was considered a small matter when Lord Moore was angry with Donald at yesterday’s banquet. They could talk it out in private and clarify the misunderstanding in the future.However, now that the old man had openly challenged the Webb family, which meant to say that they publicly declared that they cut ties with the Webb family, in fact, they were becoming enemies!Tyler and Reuben couldn’t help but whine, “Old man, why?! Even if you want to curry favor with Charlie, there’s no need to openly

Jasmine quickly said, “Master Wade, Grandpa has always respected you, please sit in the main seat.”Charlie hesitated for a while. Then, he nodded and said, “Okay, then. Thank you for the honor.”Then, he sat down on the main seat.Albert spoke graciously as he slowly retreated to the door, “Master Wade, Lord Moore, Miss Moore, please enjoy your lunch, I’ll see myself out!” He left the room and closed the door.Once there were only the three of them in the room, Lord Moore retrieved a golden-colored bank card from his suit pocket and presented it to Master Wade graciously. “Master Wade, thank you for the rare gift that you gave me yesterday, I am very grateful! I prepared this card for you as a little token of my affection, it has one billion dollars of balance in it. Please accept it.”Charlie glanced at the card. “Lord Moore, I have enough money. Please take the card back.”He was telling the truth. He had more than 20 billion in his account that he didn’t know how to spend.L

After lunch, Charlie declined Jasmine’s offer to send him home. He bid farewell to her and Lord Moore at Heaven Springs’s entrance, then walked to Construction Bank that was located not far from the restaurant.When he was at the bank, he transferred 998 million from the card that Lord Moore gave him to his own account and went home with the card that only had a balance of two million dollars.At home, Jacob and Elaine had just eaten takeaway.When Charlie entered the house, Elaine barged forward like a dog welcoming her owner and asked, “Hey, Charlie, how’s the job? Did you make any money?”Charlie nodded and said flatly, “Some.”“How much is ‘some’?” Elaine blurted frantically, “Quick, take out the money now!”Charlie took out the card and said, “There’s two million in this card.”“Two million?!” Shocked, Elaine’s eyes opened so wide they almost fell out of her eye sockets!She quickly snatched the card off Charlie’s hand and blurted, thrilled, “Are you sure? You’re not bluff

Charlie pretended not to see her vicious glare. He turned his head around and said, “Dad, use the money to buy furniture and home appliances so that we can move into the villa as soon as possible.”Alright!” Jacob carefully kept the card in his pocket and asked, “My good son-in-law, what is the password?”“I’ll text you later.”“Okay! I’ll head to the bank now to transfer the money into my card. This money must be earmarked. Remember to text me the password.”“Alright. You go ahead, I’ll text you later.”Standing at the side like an invisible person, Elaine was enraged.What did Charlie mean anyway? Why couldn’t he just say the password in front of her? Did he deliberately try to keep her out of the loop? D*mn!Indeed, Charlie wanted to keep her out of the loop. He knew how unethical she was. As she might steal the money quietly, it was better to be safe than sorry.Jacob got changed and headed out. He received the password from Charlie when he was almost at the bank. He insert

Elaine was instantly infuriated when Jacob threatened her with divorce again, but she couldn’t vent her anger at all. She had to suppress her wrath and endure the threat.She was on the losing side because of all the money she had lost.Hence, at this moment, she had to bear with Jacob for a while and wait for a chance to settle the score with him.She sighed and said, “Dear, you’re right, the spa is really expensive. I’d better save some money for our family, then.”Seeing her soft side, Jacob was relieved and even a little proud.For so many years, he had never been able to subdue Elaine. In fact, whenever he raised different opinions against Elaine’s words, he would definitely earn a scolding from her.However, from the looks of it now, Elaine seemed to have begun to compromise with him. If she could persist with her gentle and timid side to him, that would be so awesome!However, Jacob couldn’t help being cautious. This woman had been so domineering and overbearing all her

Elaine remembered when Jacob had changed his phone, she had asked him, in her usual bossy way, to register her fingerprints in the security setting of the phone, so that she could check it at any time. Did that man delete her fingerprints?!Elaine gritted her teeth in great dismay.D*mn it, that man had started to take precautions against her!Putting her anger aside, she tried the unlock code.Back then, not only did she register her fingerprints on his phone, but she also knew the six-digit unlock code for his phone.However, after she entered the passcode she remembered, the phone prompted that the passcode was wrong!Elaine frowned in confusion and tried again, but it was still wrong!She was burning in fury now!D*mn it, Jacob the old dog! He had deleted her fingerprints and changed his password!Did he already know that she would try to take his phone to transfer the money? Or had he become so cautious after getting the two million?This was outrageous!Infuriated, Ela

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…

Charlie was driving Jacob to Thompson First when the latter received the text from Matilda.Seeing that they were reaching the front gates, Jacob promptly snapped at Charlie, "Charlie, stop the car now!"Charlie did so and asked in curiosity, "What's wrong?""Matilda just texted me," Jacob replied, showing the chat log between him and Matilda.Charlie was just glancing at it nonchalantly when he saw that Matilda's contact name was 'AAA July Florist'."Wait, why is that Aunt Matilda's contact name?" He exclaimed in surprise."I changed it."Jacob explained gingerly while reading through the text Matilda sent. "Her profile picture is an iris, so I changed her contact name to a florist since I'm mostly worried Elaine would peek into my phone.""Anyway, she's asking if I'm attending her wedding with Yolden. They would send us an invitation if I accept, extended to our whole family… what do you think I should say?"Charlie asked in return. "You're planning to skip it, aren't you? T

Then, Matilda suggested, "How about this—I'll ask him before deciding." "I'll pass on inviting the rest of my former classmates too. They're too vain and love comparing, so I'd rather not have anything to do with that. Also, there are our Korean friends who have it together, and they were telling us to invite them if we were going to get married. We have to keep our promise, right?""Yeah—then, it's basically decided. Aside from Charlie, we shall invite our colleagues and Korean friends while we wait for an answer from Jacob."Yolden nodded and said, "Now, I'll talk about the honeymoon—cut me short if you have a different opinion."Matilda nodded, resting her chin on her hands and smiling. "Shoot. I'm all ears."Feeling a little embarrassed by Matilda's glowing stare, Yolden took a sip of his ice water before continuing, "My idea is to head to the States for our honeymoon after the wedding…"He trailed off, staring at Matilda and waiting for a response.However, she was merely

"Oh, Jacob…?"Matilda chuckled awkwardly. "Just today, he offered to buy me dinner, but I said I didn't have the time, and I also told him about our wedding… So, we should invite him since he's aware of it.""Jacob offered to buy you dinner?" Yolden exclaimed in surprise. "Did he say why?""Nope," Matilda shrugged, smiling. "Probably just dinner between old classmates."However, she was actually smart enough to guess Jacob's intention even though Jacob was inviting her somewhere near campus. That was why she had also mentioned she was marrying Yolden while turning down Jacob, all so that he would give up on her.After she had managed to get over their past fling completely, she didn't want to give Jacob false hopes before she walked down the aisle.In the same regard, she didn't want to worry Yolden, and therefore, had deliberately discouraged Jacob.Be that as it may, Yolden was smart too.He knew about Matilda and Jacob's past and that her son, Paul's full name was Paul Jam
