“Enough!” Lady Wilson was very angry and she yelled violently as she glared at Elaine before she cursed and said, “You b*tch! So what if the Wilson family is in despair right now? We’ll definitely have a chance to rise again sooner or later. When that day comes, it will be completely impossible for me to accept you back into the Wilson family even if you beg me to accept you!”Jacob hurriedly said to Elaine, “Elaine! How could you speak to Mom like this? Hurry up and apologize to her now!”Elaine frowned as she stared at Jacob and said coldly, “Have you forgotten that this old woman drove you out of the Wilson family? Are you starting to defend her and protect her again? You may treat her as your mother but has she ever treated you as her own son?”After she was done speaking, Elaine pointed at Lady Wilson before she said coldly, “Old lady, I hope that you can get your facts right and figure out the exact situation that you’re in right now. Are you still pretending as though you’re

The salesman nodded slightly before he said, “You can come back here again if you want to buy the sofa set from us.”When they turned around, Lady Wilson had already disappeared with the rest of her family.Jacob went to several shops selling Lexington wood furniture but he did not see any sofa sets that he liked.Elaine felt very anxious at this time and so, she proposed that they should just buy the other furniture for the bedroom and dining room first. Otherwise, they would have just made a wasted trip to the Furniture City today.Jacob also felt that it was not feasible for them to continue wasting time like this. Therefore, they went to check out the other shops instead.Elaine chose a bed that cost tens of thousands of dollars for herself whereas Claire simply chose a bedroom set that cost about ten thousand dollars. At this time, they also bought some furniture such as wardrobes, a dining table, and so forth for the bedrooms and the living room.They even bought all the ho

Jacob was very excited when he heard his brother’s question. He replied excitedly, “Of course it’s true! I’m willing to pay 1.2 million dollars for it!”Christopher replied, “Okay, since you really want it, then you can transfer the money over to Mom’s bank account. After that, we’ll consider the furniture sold to you.”Jacob was very satisfied and he quickly replied, “Alright then. Why don’t you send the sofa set over to our villa at Thompson First now? After the sofa set is unloaded at the villa, I’ll pay up immediately.”Christopher hesitated for a moment on the other end of the line before he replied, “Okay then. The sofa set is already in the truck now and we can transport it over to the villa at any time now.”Jacob hurriedly replied, “Okay, I will meet you at the villa at Thompson First then! See you there!”After he was done speaking, Jacob hung up the phone immediately before he said excitedly, “Charlie, you’ve guessed it correctly! They are going to sell the sofa set to

However, the person who was going to live here was none other than Claire, whom she had always despised and looked down on!As she thought about this, Wendy also said, “Grandma, I’ll come with you too!”After she was done speaking, she quickly hurried forward as she supported her grandmother’s arm on one side while her brother held onto her grandmother’s other arm.The grandmother and her grandchildren walked into the living room as they observed the splendid and amazing decorations and renovation in the house. They were so amazed that they could not even say anything at all.The ceiling in the oversized living room was more than ten meters high and there was a huge, luxurious golden crystal chandelier in the middle of the living room. The light reflecting from the crystal chandelier was so colorful and bright. It was so beautiful that it was simply suffocating!Lady Wilson could not help but feel her legs trembling as she stood in the luxurious living room.Compared to this vill

The expression on everyone’s faces changed as soon as they heard Lady Wilson’s words!The first person who had a change of expression was none other than Elaine!She instantly understood the old lady’s intentions!She was really incredible! She was really a sly fox! She was simply pretending to give them the set of furniture because she wanted to move into their villa!She was finally able to get rid of the old lady and the Wilson family. She was finally able to live an even better life compared to the Wilson family and she was finally able to crush the Wilson family under her feet.As a result, the old lady was simply trying to suck up to them just so she could move into their huge and luxurious villa, wasn’t she?Why didn’t she just take a piss and look at her own reflection instead? Did she really deserve to stay here in the villa with them?Jacob was not a fool either. In fact, he had been seriously moved with the old lady’s generosity at first. However, in the very next sec

Jacob also nodded repeatedly at this time.He already knew what it felt like to have a shrewd woman in the house. It felt as though he was constantly treading on thin ice.If there were two shrewd women in the house, then it would not be a home at all.Therefore, he could only harden his heart as he said, “Mom, why don’t you give me your bank account number? I will transfer the money over to you right now. Otherwise, you can take your furniture back and we can just ask the porters to move the furniture out of the villa now.”Lady Wilson was very angry as she pointed her finger at Jacob. At this time, she rushed forward to give him a slap across her face. Fortunately, Jacob reacted fast enough and he took two steps backwards quickly, so the old lady did not manage to hit him.Lady Wilson was trembling in anger because of her Jacob’s attitude. What was even more depressing was the face that she would not have the opportunity to enjoy living in such a huge and luxurious villa. This m

Christopher was waiting for them outside the villa. When he saw the old lady coming out of the villa with his son and daughter, he hurried forward and asked immediately, “Mom, did you get the money from them?”Lady Wilson had a very black face as she said, “Yes. Let’s go!”When he saw that Lady Wilson seemed to be very angry, Christopher hurriedly grabbed Howard before he asked in a low voice, “What happened? Why is your grandmother so angry?”Harold waited for his younger sister and grandmother to walk a little further away before he whispered, “Dad, Grandma is really the worst!”“Why are you talking about your grandma that way?” Christopher could not help but reprimand his son at this time. “We’re all depending on your grandmother now. How could you say that about her? What’s going to happen if she hears you?”Harold replied angrily, “Dad! Do you know what Grandma said to Second Uncle? She told him that she would be willing to give him the sofa set for free as long as he was wil

The layout of the second floor was exactly the same as the third floor. There were three rooms on each floor and two of it were large bedrooms with two smaller bedrooms.The large bedroom was similar to a suite with a living area outside and a bathroom inside.Charlie and Claire naturally chose this bedroom. After that, they decided to give the bedroom next to them to Loreen.There was another room on the second floor and Claire planned to turn it into her study room. She often had to do design drawings and construction plans for her company and she needed a room where she could do all of her work.Charlie and Claire looked around the bedroom. At this time, Charlie deliberately asked Claire, “My dear wife, the bed that we’ve bought for the room is about two meters wide, right?”“Yes.” Claire nodded before she said, “Since the bedroom is so big, it wouldn’t look nice if we choose a smaller bed.”Charlie chuckled before she said, “Then, wouldn’t it be a little too big for you to sl

As Ian Cash's trio turned and left Treasure Measure, Trippy was still standing there, staring blankly as they headed off to the distance, utterly dispirited.Seeing that, Raymond returned his phone and said coolly, "We had agreed on some ground rules, but not only did you break them, you even tried to sabotage me.""Since you refuse to be honorable, you can't blame me for being cold—starting now, we shall have nothing to do with each other. We'll be strangers even if we bump into each other."Trippy was already choking, and he snatched his phone back before dashing out of Treasure Measure, calling Mick Crane as soon as he left.Mick had just arrived at Vintage Deluxe and hadn't even sat down when Trippy called, and he asked as soon as he answered, "How did it go? What did you find out?"However, Trippy was so exasperated he burst into tears right then, "M-Mr. Crane… My dear Mr. Crane…"Mick was left reeling from shock, and he promptly snapped, "Can't you fucking talk? Why are you

Seeing that the transaction was complete and that the bargain deal had been taken, the other collectors all excused themselves and left.As for Ian, once he had bagged the bronze sculpture, he nodded at Raymond. "I apologize for leaving early, Mr. Cole, but I must return to Eastcliff. However, you can contact me again should you pick up another treasure. I'm quite a spendthrift, and I pay up right away if the item is good and the price is right."Raymond smiled. "Very well. I shall contact you first the next time I get something good."Ian nodded and was ready to leave with his two friends when Trippy chased after them."Please, Mr. Cash!" He cried urgently, his anxiety overcoming him. "You shouldn't buy that! It's a forgery!"Ian frowned at him. "Are you trying to sabotage Mr. Cole? Aren't you supposed to be his friend?""Hell, no!" Trippy promptly replied. "I'm no friend of his—I'm just here to watch, but I didn't think he dared to trick you for 20 million! I can't bear to see

No one except Raymond expected that the terms would be agreed upon so quickly.He was utterly confident in his judgment and even more so in his value appraisal.He was convinced that once they had a good look, any one of these collectors who could afford twenty million wouldn't miss this bargain.After all, an opportunity to secure an item worth millions more than the price they paid was very rare.In fact, when the other nine collectors heard that the first collector was buying it, it was only to be expected even if it left them all gloomy. They had all held the bronze sculpture in their hands—they knew it was definitely worth that much.However, no one in the room was more shocked than Trippy.He looked utterly flabbergasted, his eyes wide and bulging as he stared at the bronze sculpture while asking himself the same question repeatedly.Was that crap really worth twenty million? How?!While Trippy was still stunned, Raymond had already sent his payment details to the first

Unable to nitpick on the air stewardess' response, Elaine pouted, "Well, try to ask management to improve on your first-class cabins anyway. Maybe even make a premium-class or something since it's not like we can't afford it."The air stewardess quickly said, "We will definitely relay your message to the management."Nodding in satisfaction, Elaine waved her off. "Alright. You can go back to work now."Clearly relieved, the air stewardess bowed her head respectfully. "Always happy to be of service."After the air stewardess left, Jacob asked Elaine in curiosity, "Was the private jet that good?"Elaine rolled her eyes. "Didn't you see the stuff I posted in the chat group?""Not really," Jacob blurted. Elaine was ready to snap at him for not caring, but considering that they had made up now and she shouldn't fuss too much over the little things, she snorted, "Just remember to like and comment on all my posts in the chat group, otherwise, I will make you regret it!""No problem!"

While the ten collectors were taking turns studying the bronze sculpture, Jacob and Elaine were boarding their flight.As they were flying first-class, they had priority over the other passengers and boarded from the separate plug door at the first-class section.The capacity of the Boeing 777 was huge, and the wide-body aircraft could be connected to a special double corridor bridge where first class and business class passengers boarded separately from the economy class passengers.As the terminals to economy class and business class were connected, Elaine and Jacob were able to get through the first-class terminal unimpeded, but the passengers in economy class had a queue of over two hundred passengers. Even as she walked, Elaine was looking over her shoulder and exclaiming at Jacob, "Must be nice being rich! We used to have to queue like the rest of them, waiting for over thirty minutes just to board our flight." "In first class, we may be in the same plane, but we don't hav

Meanwhile, once Raymond had briefed everyone about the rules, he opened the door and invited everyone into Treasure Measure.It was not that wide but appeared spacious since the interior was mostly empty—it was not really crowded even with thirty-ish people.Then, locking the door from the inside, Raymond told them, "I can tell from everyone's faces that we are all veterans here, so I'm sure you understand the rules while appraising: no photos or videos, thank you very much."Indeed, there were many rules that governed the hobby, the most important being respecting the seller's requests and privacy.As the collectors listened, they knew that Raymond was selling but did not want the public to know too much about him.They all nodded, and those who had their phones out slid them back into their pockets.With that, Raymond took out the bronze sculpture that he had brought, leaving Trippy a little surprised.He had never seen the bronze sculpture with his own eyes before, only from
Chapter 6494
"Alright!" Trippy was at once fawning, tagging along behind Raymond like a little child.Around thirty people were waiting in front of Treasure Measure by now. The collectors came in twos or threes, and all ten numbers had since been taken.Before Raymond arrived, he had a brief look at the collectors' faces through the security cameras before walking over, and he was really relieved to see no familiar faces.Having traded Oskian antiques for years abroad, it was only natural that he was acquainted with some of the elite collectors in the country.He also knew that they were especially demanding with the quality of their collection and wanted almost flawless items. As such, the bronze sculpture which had been completely lost wouldn't interest them.Still, he was also a little concerned that amongst the elite collectors he knew, there might be some who were losing money and losing purchasing power in turn. If they happened to take an interest in the bronze sculpture on top of that,

Trippy grinned. "I mean, just look at my stall—ain't no way I'm getting any business here. Why not let me check out this item of yours? And see how interested they are? I'm really interested in learning and upping my game."Then, as if worried that Raymond would refuse, he quickly added, "Don't worry—I promise to stay in a corner and just watch."Still, Raymond could guess right then that someone must have sent Trippy to spy on him.It didn't matter whether it was Mick, Jacob, or Zachary either—they were all in this plot together, and one knowing meant all three knowing.Trippy was a gossiper in nature. If he was allowed to witness the whole process, everyone down Antique Street would definitely know before long.In fact, he could use someone like that right now, and Trippy had come straight to his doorstep.With that in mind, Raymond smiled, "Come join me if you're interested. It's not like there's anything to hide…"Pausing, he then warned Trippy, "But since you're going in my

After watching Mick's video, Jasmine's opinion of the man improved considerably.She was actually well aware that the decline of Vintage Deluxe was mostly due to Mick's incompetence.However, as Jasmine was now managing a billion-dollar company, she couldn't spare any time to ask many questions about Vintage Deluxe's performance. In her opinion, as long as Vintage Deluxe didn't lose too much money or ruin the reputation they had worked so hard to build, she wasn't interested in a regime change.It was the same mindset as Marianne Long, who begged her father to keep that lane full of food stalls in Hong Kong over sentiment.As such, seeing that Mick actually had some skill pleased her considerably.She couldn't resist checking out the comments of the video too.She saw that many were praising the manager of Vintage Deluxe for taking a tough stand against the scammer as well as how Vintage Deluxe's reputation was long-standing and without comparison.She soon noticed Jacob's comme
