Chapter 11

ผู้เขียน: Lord Leaf
After the three bows, tears were swirling in Harold’s eyes but he didn’t dare to do anything rash now.

He knew that his grandma was very disappointed and agitated at him now, so no matter what, he shouldn’t enrage her any further.

Lady Wilson heaved a sigh of relief after seeing Harold bowing and admitting defeat.

She didn’t wish for his precious grandson to bow his head at Charlie the loser, but they had made a bet that involved her.

She was a very devoted Buddhist. If Harold didn’t keep his promise, she would certainly be so afraid of the retribution and karma to come at her that she would have trouble eating and sleeping.

Thus, she looked at Harold and said flatly, “Harold, treat these three bows as a lesson for you. Next time, don’t bet on something that you have no absolute certainty of. Even if you wish to make a bet, keep your family out of it!”

With a pouty face, Harold grumbled, “Okay, Grandma, I know better now. I’ll never do it again…”

As he spoke, his eyes glared towards Charlie viciously, thinking, ‘You b*stard! How dare you force me to kneel and bow before you. You made me lose face today, I swear I’ll get right back at you sooner or later!’

Then, Lady Wilson stated, “It is a joyful day today, now that Claire has won the contract. Come on everyone, we must hurry and make our preparations now. We must take this opportunity to build a good partnership with Emgrand Group!”

Charlie reminded, “Grandma, since Claire has succeeded in striking the deal, don’t you think you should announce the appointment of Claire as the director of the company as you’ve promised?”

Lady Wilson arched her eyebrows, thoughts were running in her mind.

She did say that whoever won the contract would be appointed as the company’s director.

However, Claire was not her favorite all this while. Her loser husband had always irritated her too and some ideas were slowly brewing in her mind again.

What if Claire got out of her control after she was appointed such a high position in the company? What would she do then?

In that instant, she wanted to withdraw her promise. After all, she didn’t swear on an oath when she made such a promise, so she wouldn’t feel bad at all if she took it back.

However, saying such a statement right after Claire struck the deal would be unwise, so she said, “Let’s do this instead. Tomorrow night, I’ll hold a banquet, inviting all the prominent and influential people in Aurous Hill to the party. At the banquet, I’ll officially announce our collaboration with Emgrand Group and the appointment of the new director.”

Charlie was relieved with satisfaction after Lady Wilson’s statement.

Claire also smiled, reassured. Finally, the position of the director was hers. She didn’t have to be elbowed and isolated anymore, and her parents could finally stand upright and be proud!

Lady Wilson turned to look at Claire and said, “Claire, I need you to do something for me.”

“Yes, Grandma, what is it?”

“I want you to contact the chairman of Emgrand Group and invite him to attend tomorrow’s banquet.”

After a pause, she continued with anticipation, “If he is able to attend our banquet, it will be an extravagant boost to our family! It will also push our name out to the public, making us more famous!”

Claire pondered for a while and said hesitantly, “But… I only met Doris Young, the vice-chairman, I didn’t see the chairman himself…By the way, don’t you think it’s a little too deliberate to organize the banquet when we’ve just gotten the contract…”

“So what? I want to tell the whole Aurous Hill that we’re now bound to Emgrand Group. We’re going to be very successful and rich!”

Lady Wilson continued, “Even if their chairman doesn’t want to come, you can invite Doris Young, it’s the same. She is the second person in charge of Emgrand Group, she would also be an honorable guest to have at our banquet.”

She was already grinning in excitement when she thought of it. She felt her body pumping with hot blood when she imagined how those big cooperates and families who had discriminated against the Wilson family would have to humble themselves and serve under the Wilson family.

The Wilson family would become more brilliant and lavish in her hands!

Claire pondered for a moment before answering gingerly, “Okay, I understand, I’ll try…”

“Don’t try it! You must!”

Claire nodded reluctantly, then turned to Charlie and whispered, “What should I do? What if the chairman doesn’t attend? What if Doris Young doesn’t want to come too?”

Charlie chuckled and said, “Just try and see. You have Doris Young’s number, don’t you? Maybe she’ll agree as soon as you call her, who knows?”

The purpose of the banquet was not only to demonstrate the strength of the Wilson family but also to announce Claire’s promotion to the director.

As her husband, it would be a joyful event to support his wife and to celebrate her promotion.

At this time, Claire didn’t know that her husband was the chairman of Emgrand Group. She fidgetted her fingers anxiously and sighed before saying, “He is the chairman of Emgrand, I heard that he is some young master from an extremely wealthy family in Eastcliff. This kind of person must be very busy with his daily business, how would he be able to spare the time to attend some whatnot banquet…”

Charlie laughed and said, “I don’t think so. Perhaps he’s someone who spends his time with his wife at home every day, cooking and doing the laundry all day long. Who knows?”

Claire rolled her eyes at him and teased, “Do you think everyone is like you?”

Charlie nodded. “Yes, maybe the boss of Emgrand Group is just like me…”

Claire pursed her lips and snorted, “Cut it out! That’s impossible!”

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 7775

    For Ruby and Penny, Vera's statement was as enlightening as it cleared doubts or embarrassment they felt inside.In the end, the greatest gift a cultivator could give another cultivator wasn't mystic pills, spirit stones, or weapons, but cultivation manuals.It was basically the principle of 'Teach a man to fish', and the fact that Charlie wasn't holding out on them on anything—whether it was mystic pills, spirit stones, or cultivation manuals, made them understand one thing.There was just no point in refusing Charlie's generosity, and using his gifts to the best of their ability was the only proper way to repay that kindness.Hence, Ruby stood up first and bowed her head at Charlie in gratitude. "Thank you for taking such good care of us, Mr. Wade. I vow to dedicate my life to your service!""It's the same for me!" Penny nodded.Their gratitude was clear as day, and Charlie smiled. "That's enough courtesy talk. Anyway, you shall both stay here, and do your best to cultivate wit

    Charlie smiled and nodded. While he believed that mastering the incantation to activate the portals was as amusing as it was practical, he wasn't in a rush.The subterranean city filled with Reiki already surprised him plenty. Whether it was the ring with a void storage or the portal connected to different corners of the world, all of it was there and waiting for him to use them to their maximum potential.Hence, he told the three women, "Wait here."He returned to his room, summoning four chicken-egg-sized spirit stones into his palm with just a thought.Then, returning to the women's room, he handed Ruby and Penny the spirit stones. "Keep these. They are spirit stones—you can absorb the Reiki from one, and save the other."Both Rub and Penny were left gaping.They had never seen spirit stones, but hearing Charlie telling what those spirit stones were immediately prompted them to reach out through Reiki and see if the pebbles really were spirit stones.Naturally, they were bo

    "Spirit stones?!"Both Ruby and Penny were stunned just hearing the world, with Ruby exclaiming, "Well, the Qing Eliminating Society does have a permanent bounty on those. Anyone who finds it and hands it over to Fleur will be rewarded with cultivating pills, cultivation manuals or even promotions within the Qing Eliminating Society… but most never ever encountered one, including myself."Penny nodded in agreement too. "That's right—in the years I've spent in the Qing Eliminating Society, there's always rewards put on offer for bringing Fleur spirit stones. But forget getting one… I've never seen one myself.""So any spirit stone found goes straight to Fleur?" Charlie asked in curiosity. "Yes, as it's to be handed to one's superior immediately," Ruby replied, nodding. "It's always the top in the Qing Eliminating Society's cultivation resource priority list, and even the military governorates must report to headquarters immediately should there be any found."Charlie was surprised

    Ruby and Penny noticed Charlie too, and delightedly rushed to the door with Vera.They felt both shock and pain seeing Charlie's condition, as they didn't expect that he would end up so bruised and battered.His clothes were shredded and barely strips dangling over his body, though it did cover the front and his privates.Vera quickly held his hand, asking worriedly, "Are you alright? Are you hurt?""Just a little," Charlie replied, smiling. "But mostly healed, although the clothes are a problem."Vera's pain was obvious on her face, and she squeezed his hand. "Come inside—I'll get a bath ready and some fresh clothes."Charlie nodded. "Thanks, Ms. Lavor.""You're always welcome," Vera replied, and hurried to the bathroom.Perhaps because Norway had fewer research crew members, they had actual bathtubs instead of showers, as they do at research bases with larger teams. Charlie knew that he was a mess, but it didn't matter and spent his time soaking in the bath and cleaning up,

    However, the negative promotion kept eating at Fleur. It was not as if she didn't trust Elder Barlin's abilities, but her luck always failed her whenever she came up against her mystery foe, and it was always she who lost in what few run-ins they had.So now it wasn't just the four earls or their bases being uprooted one after the other… All the scholars and members she had sent to find out anything they could still couldn't find a thing!That was why, knowing that Barlin had been fighting at the South Pole, Fleur immediately presumed things didn't look good for Barlin.She didn't even have any idea how many foes she actually had, but she knew that Barlin had been alone when he traveled to the South Pole, and then was almost hunted down by the Americans.That meant he was already in dire straits, and wouldn't stand a chance fighting a formidable cultivator on top of that.That was when Tarlon pointed out, "My Lord, the fact that Barlin traveled alone to the South Pole and mind-b

    Most importantly, the fact that Vera's ring didn't teleport Charlie to her side meant he had won, and the thought relieved her right then.Smiling in embarrassment, she explained, "No, I was just feeling a little headache, but I'm better now. We should just stay here and wait for Mr. Wade."Seeing that she was calm, Ruby was relieved and assured her, "There's no reason to worry. Mr. Wade is a great man, and I'm sure he's not in any trouble.""Yes," Vera smiled and nodded. "He'd return to us safely.-Meanwhile, at the Qing Eliminating Society headquarters, Tarlon rushed to Fleur's chambers, entering when he had permission and reporting urgently, "My lord, there's been a situation!"Fleur frowned. "What is it? What's so urgent?""Please take a look at this…" Tarlon said respectfully, handing over a specialized cellphone.Fleur took it skeptically and played the video that was loaded—the news of lightning sighted in deep Antarctica, and her brow creased further and warily. "Forge

    Charlie spoke up and said, “Mom, you don’t need to worry, and you don’t have to be afraid. We will certainly be able to successfully resolve this matter. It might be a little troublesome, but you will have to suffer a little grievance during this period of time.”Elaine cried and asked, “You have to

    Charlie once felt that the search for the specific address of 547’s lineage of dead soldiers might be as difficult as reaching for the sky.The reason for this was that the mysterious organization had extremely tight control over the dead soldiers, preventing them from perceiving the exact time, and
