The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 849
Paul’s Oskian language was indeed very good. If anyone closed their eyes and listened to them speak, no one would be able to tell that he was actually an American. Charlie was also very surprised and he shook Paul’s head before he said in admiration, “Mr. Paul, your Oskian language is indeed really very impressive.”Paul smiled humbly before he said, “Mr. Wade, you are thinking too highly of me!”Jacob hurriedly said, “By the way, Matilda, I have already booked a room at Shangri-La hotel for lunch today. Why don’t we head over there to have a welcome meal for you and Paul now?”Matilda smiled before she said, “Thank you, Jacob. I really appreciate the fact that you came all the way here with Charlie to pick us up and treat us to lunch today…”“It is only right for me to do so!” Jacob smiled awkwardly before he said, “Well, we happened to drive here today so we can go together in one car!”“Okay.” Matilda nodded before she said to Paul, “Son, tell your driver that we will not be ta

The foreign driver nodded hurriedly before he said, “Okay, chairman. I will go right now!”After that, he opened the trunk of the Rolls-Royce Phantom before he took all the suitcases from Paul’s hand and placed them in the trunk.After he was done, he asked Matilda, “Chairman, aren’t you and the general manager going to the Shangri-La hotel in this car?”Matilda nodded before he said, “I will be going there in my old classmate’s car. You can leave first.”Jacob looked at the new and luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom in front of him and he could not help but feel particularly uneasy at this time.He could clearly tell the value of this car.An ordinary car like this would have cost at least eight or nine million dollars. Furthermore, this car was equipped with a golden man logo which was made out of pure gold. This would cost them an extra two hundred thousand dollars!Jacob could not help but feel a little more inferior at this time.Therefore, he hurriedly said, “Oh, Matilda, perh

After the driver drove the Rolls-Royce Phantom away, Charlie drove Jacob’s BMW 5 Series over to the entrance of the airport.As soon as the car stopped directly in front of the three of them, the old man hurriedly opened the rear car door before he said in a gentlemanly manner, “Matilda, after you!”Matilda nodded slightly before she smiled and bent her body to get into the car.Immediately afterward, Paul walked over to the other side of the car as he prepared to get into the back seat with his mother. At this time, Jacob hurriedly said, “Oh, Paul! Since you and Charlie are both young people, you should have a lot of topics in common. You should have a good chat with him along the way to the hotel!”After that, Jacob quickly got into the back seat before Paul could even reply to his request.Paul had no choice but to get into the co-driver seat.Charlie drove toward the city and Jacob, who was sitting in the back seat with Matilda, could not help but feel a little embarrassed as

At that time, a young American boy was madly pursuing her. Out of anger and because she simply wanted to forget her past as soon as possible, she decided to accept the other party’s pursuit.Both of them got married quickly, started a family, and had children together very soon.That American boy was very kind to her and he cared for her throughout all his life. However, Matilda had always been unable to forget her ex-boyfriend even after more than twenty years had already passed by.When she looked back on their history, she realized that she had been too arrogant in the past and that was the reason why she was fooled by others. She realized that her roommate did not come to her just because she wanted to confess her mistake and ask for her forgiveness. In fact, although her roommate told her that she hoped that she would not mind this matter at all, she was secretly hoping that Matilda would mind it and take the initiative to back out of her relationship so that she would willin

Jacob’s mind drifted in the ocean of thoughts, reminiscing his past. His eyes turned red, and two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks.Matilda was perfect. Even in Charlie’s eyes, she was completely incomparable to Elaine. She was a million times better than Elaine, and Jacob had spent more than 2 decades with a shrew who was nowhere near the quality of his ex. It was undeniable that Jacob would feel uncomfortable and upset when he saw Matilda again.Matilda was sorrowful as well when she saw Jacob’s tears.She regretted her decision too.She regretted that she left him on the impulse.None of them were happy for the past 20 years.Both of them suffered the same torment, mentally and emotionally.If so, why did she choose to break up with him in the first place?She knew that he didn’t like Elaine.She knew that he must have completely lost consciousness, otherwise, Elaine wouldn’t be able to take advantage of him.She even knew subconsciously that it was Elaine’s plan all

Jacob prayed to God, hoping that Elaine would never come back again. She had tormented him for more than 2 decades, he had accomplished the unthinkable because of this, it was time to set him free.If Elaine never came back, he was certain that he could be with Matilda again and resumed their previous relationship.He even thought that Matilda’s son was a quite nice person who was open-minded enough to accept him as his stepfather.As for Claire, she was a sensible and filial daughter. If her mother was indeed missing, she wouldn’t object to him pursuing his true love. After all, he could not live alone for the rest of his life after Elaine disappeared.His only concern right now was whether Elaine would return.So he could only pray to God for his wish to come true.However, he didn’t know that it was not up to God to decide on this, but his son-in-law, Charlie.***When Charlie arrived at the entrance of Shangri-La, the hotel staff immediately marched forward and opened the d
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 855
Jacob’s concern was straightforward and simple, he was worried that Elaine would return home suddenly in the next two days. His precious chance to invite Matilda over to his house would be thrown out the window if she did return.He wouldn’t dare, even if anyone pointed a gun at him, to invite Matilda to his house when Elaine was at home. Elaine would kill him there and then!Hence, he should grab the chance when it comes his way as soon as possible.Matilda stumbled into the reminisce of her past too.Since she was from Sudbury, she had to live in a dormitory when she was studying in Aurous Hill.Moreover, back in those days, people were not open-minded enough to brag about them being in a relationship, they were rather shy and low-key, they didn’t even dare to let their family know. She always wanted to cook a meal for Jacob but they never found a suitable time and venue to do so.In fact, it was not as convenient as it was now.Nowadays, couples could simply rent a hotel apar

Charlie understood right away that the two elderly people must have some unusual memories of “cooking” or “coming home with him” that made them react so awkwardly.Paul also noticed the peculiarity, but he was too embarrassed to point it out, so he turned to Charlie and said, “Charlie, let’s go to our suite first.”Then, he turned to Matilda and said, “Mom, you’ve been on the plane for more than ten hours, you must be tired. Let’s go to the suite and talk if you have something to say to Uncle Wilson.”Matilda suddenly regained her composure. She was thinking about her past with Jacob and even recalled the details of their first love-making experience. She blushed shyly and said, “Oh, look at me, I’m so absent-minded! Yes, let’s go to our suite and talk!”Jacob echoed hurriedly, “Yes, let’s go to the suite. It’s my fault, once I started talking, I forgot about all of it!”Charlie shook his head and even sighed helplessly. They were like firewood and raging fire finding each other a

"Anyway, we have an issue," Helena continued. "Two days ago, Nvidia launched the B100 processor, their latest product, just two hours ago—a next-generation chip that will outperform our H100 considerably. I've instructed Harrison to pull some strings and preorder a batch from Nvidia before the B100 hits the market, at least ensuring that we can get our hands on 20,000 in the first quarter when the B100 circulates."Charlie asked, "What are Harrison's thoughts on the matter?" "Of course that old fox is going to be reluctant," Helena snorted. "But with the B100's processing strength outclassing the H100's, many AI institutions and multimedia giants are waiting with their wallets wide open. He's complaining that after pulling strings to get his hands on so many H100s, he is too embarrassed to do it again for the B100.""Bullshit," Charlie chuckled. "He's just not keen on us raising our prices after that previous agreement.""Exactly," Helena laughed as well. "He's about the shrewdest

By the time Jacob was sent home, he was almost passed out drunk.As Charlie took him off Walker's hands, Jacob's eyelids were but narrow slits.With his rough facial features, his flushed cheeks, and that strange smile of his, he looked just like those sleazy middle-aged men often seen in animated cartoons.Still, seeing that Charlie had come out of the house to get him, he chuckled drunkenly, "D-Dear boy… Your dad… was so amazing!"Charlie shook his head in exasperation. "You're drunk, Dad—get some rest already. Otherwise, you might wake Mom up and get an earful for this.""Earful?" Jacob's eyes widened ferociously as he snorted, "S-She'd never dare!"Charlie chuckled as he said quietly, "Come on, keep it down—Elaine is plenty daring. And in your state, you stand no chance if she starts to beat you."Despite being drunk a second ago, Jacob suddenly shuddered from the shiver running down his spine, and he promptly corrected himself, "A gentleman… never lays a hand on a woman!

Naturally, neither Mr. Bay nor Hal argued with this, thus following Albert and Jacob to the Diamond Room—the grandest room of Heaven Springs.After Albert led the trio there and smiled, "Gentlemen, if you would please take your seats, my people will be delivering Big Red Robe tea and our menu to your table shortly. I've spoken to the kitchen as well, and they will be preparing appetizers first. Please feel free to enjoy a game of poker until everyone arrives, and the main courses will be delivered right away."His arrangement was utterly detailed, and the trio were awash with gratitude.Hal and Mr. Bay especially were looking upon Jacob worshipfully, as if he was an unassuming bigwig on Charlie's level.Soon, as the invited guests arrived, Albert personally brought two bottles of 3-liter Moutai that cost an arm and leg to the Diamond Room.For politeness's sake, Hal ordered two more bottles of one-liter Moutai, meaning that it was one liter for the eight persons in attendance.Th

Don Albert was waiting at the front doors of Heaven Springs when Jacob's Cullinan arrived.He was absolutely enthusiastic in welcoming the man, even stroking his ego as much as possible as he knew Jacob and his vanity—which made that a must.Hence, as soon as Jacob stopped the Cullinan, Don Albert and the manager of Heaven Springs were immediately on hand to receive him.Mr. Bay was riding shotgun but recognized Albert right away, exclaiming, "Shit, he's coming personally to receive you too?"Jacob chuckled. "Well, he and my son-in-law have a lot of respect for each other, so I guess that respect is extended to us as well."As they spoke, Albert had reached the Cullinan and opened the door for Albert, nodding at him respectfully, "Greetings, Mr. Wilson. You can leave the keys with Mr. Carson while I escort you and your friend upstairs.""Thank you very much." Jacob grinned and turned to Mr. Bay. "Come on. Let's go.""Yes, yes, of course!" Mr. Bay smiled and nodded, a little nerv

Mr. Bay's friend promptly asked, "Was it the manager, Mr. Carson?""Nope," Mr. Bay chuckled. "Guess again.""Oh, come on!" Mr. Bay's friend whined. "You're still telling me to guess now? Just so you know, those bigwigs were so pleased when I told them we'd have the Golden Room and said they'd be bringing their cards. I'd be laughed at if I didn't give them the details right now!"Mr. Bay laughed. "Alright, alright, I'll quit being mysterious—it's Jacob Wilson, my vice president. He contacted Don Albert of Heaven Springs personally, and the man promised you the Diamond Room and the finest wines of his cellar!""Holy shit!" Mr. Bay's friend gasped. "Mr. Wilson did? For real?! And the Diamond Room on top of that?!""Indeed," Mr. Bay nodded. "And you know me. Would I kid when it comes to such matters?"Mr. Bay's friend breathed a long sigh as if he had just cheated death. "Heavens… Thank you so much, my friend! You've really saved my skin there! You have no idea how much persuasion t

Jacob wasn't really concerned with the invitation. He wouldn't be going anyway, and he wouldn't tell Elaine about it.Right now, he had a question.After hanging up on Walker, he asked curiously, "A designated driver would be just a few dozen bucks at most. Why get Walker?"Mr. Bay sighed meaningfully. "Jacob, my boy—it's not just my job description you must handle when you succeed me. You must understand the unspoken rules of the workplace as well as interpersonal relationships."Raising his right index finger, he chuckled, "Earning the loyalty of subordinates is a science. But it has to be a carrot and stick—never just the carrot, while offering them chances to be of service.""Take Walker, for example. As his boss, buying him lunch is 5 points. Ask for a favor, but it's 50 points instead!""As a leader, you should also make sure to give requests that are reasonable. That way, they will consider you to be their ally, or soon enough.""People are strange that way—psychology sim
Chapter 6392
Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

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,
