Chapter 11

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!”

    In that very moment, Penny felt herself pressed against a tremendous pressure that could crush her consciousness at any moment.Fortunately, Charlie was keeping her protected, his voice ringing in her very mind just as she was about to break, "Don't worry. Leave everything to me."Soon, Penny felt a great wave of Reiki enveloping her completely like one would swaddle an infant, making her feel safe from head to toe.Then, she felt Charlie pulling her divine sense down the depths of her Sea of Consciousness.She actually thought they would take their time diving, and hence didn't expect the realm around her to change dramatically the instant her divine sense hit the bottom.Suddenly, the depths were the skies, as if they had passed through an entrance into another world.They were suddenly up in the air, looking up at a bright blue sky in a realm with only sea and sky.It was a silent realm without clouds, and the azure waters below were also serene—aside from a little wave kicki

    The Sea of Consciousness was like that one place you often heard of, but never had a chance to visit.And like an otherworldly paradise, people couldn't help imagining visiting it.Having been a cultivator for two years now, Penny's understanding of Reiki and the discipline itself was lacking despite her prodigious talent. She wanted to venture into her Sea of Consciousness too, but just couldn't reach it.Now that Charlie said he would help, she was naturally thrilled and replied respectfully, "Thank you, Mr. Wade!"Charlie nodded. "With the Moutai, I dialed up your endoscopic ability—the energy of the alcohol guided your divine sense to venture deeper, showing you where to direct your endoscopic ability. "However, your divine sense isn't strong enough and you'll have trouble diving deeper anytime soon by your own strength… Even so, you should just keep going. Follow the energy signature of the alcohol, and I'll give you a push if you start stalling."A person's divine sense mi

    Puzzled, Penny asked, "Wait, then what was Ms. Sweet talking about? I don't get it…""And you don't have to," Charlie shook his head, and asked, "So? How do you feel?"Penny really wasn't familiar with sexual relations, and Tanya's innuendos left her confused all the more. Still, she didn't press the issue as Charlie didn't bother to explain, and solemnly recalled, "Mr. Wade, as you had instructed, I didn't do anything to impede the alcohol flowing in my body. And it really felt like I gained a clearer depth in endoscopic ability, and my senses seemed to have sharpened too.""Did you find your Sea of Consciousness?" Charlie asked."Not yet," Penny replied, shaking his head. "Lady Griffin once told me through the governor that I should try, but I just don't know how."Everyone had their own Sea of Consciousness, a boundless ocean within their divine sense.Dive beneath, and it's no different tapping into one's own unlimited potential.Most attain enlightenment before reaching t

    As Charlie instructed, Penny allowed the alcohol to flow within her body.Even as she relished the sensation, she suddenly felt as if she had gained the endoscopic ability to look within her own body from a third-person viewpoint, watching as the energy gushed and pervaded.In the past, her endoscopic ability was at best amateurish and could not be improved. And yet, with the alcohol, she seemed to be able to direct her Reiki to follow the stream, and it was a whole new sensation to look inside herself.Still, even as she felt the kick of the alcohol, she thought she lacked the strength to follow up, but Charlie poured her another glass of Moutai before she could speak.Penny chugged it once more—feeling like an engine burning alcoholic spirits as fuel, eager to consume more just as she was about to run out.Beside her, Tanya was left gaping and she reached for the Moutai bottle before she knew it."53 percent?!" She exclaimed in shock. "And you're drinking it like water! You r

    Tanya laughed. "Mr. Wade, can Ms. Singer hear you when you're talking so softly? The walls are especially soundproofed in hotels…"And yet, she barely finished when a door opened and Penny stepped out, asking shyly, "I've never drunk before, Mr. Wade…"Charlie exclaimed in surprise, "Never? Even after you become an adult?"Penny nodded sheepishly. "Father always said it affects mind, judgment, and cult—"She cut herself off, as she wanted to say cultivation, but remembered Tanya was there too.Charlie understood anyway, and smiled, "It's true that alcohol affects a person negatively as you put it. But on other occasions, it relaxes them, if not offering inspiration. There is also mental fatigue that can't be eased with physical rest, but a little rest can resolve it like a hot knife through butter."With those words, he poured a glass of red wine for Tanya and two glasses of Moutai, one for Penny and another for himself.Smiling, Charlie then said, "Alcohol can also be a form of

    Charlie led Penny to the suite, but just as he opened the door, the door to the Presidential Suite down the hallway opened, and Tanya stepped out.Seeing Charlie, she exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, Mr. Wade! Just the man I'm looking for!"Then, she turned to see the black-clad Penny, and was immediately drawn in by her atypical but stunning appearance. Still, she wasn't sure why Charlie would bring a woman to his suite this late at night.An extramarital affair? Or just a call girl?Charlie, however, remained calm as he said, "Ah, Tanya. This is Ms. Singer, my assistant."Penny was delighted to see Tanya and greeted her politely, "Nice to meet you, Ms. Sweet. I'm a fan!"Tanya nodded politely and came to shake her hand. "Nice to meet you, Ms. Singer."Still, she was puzzled even as she said those words.Feng Shui consultant was just a cover and not a real job—why bring an assistant?For his part, Charlie didn't explain himself, instead opening the door and telling Penny, "Your

    Claire said nervously, “Oh, no, I can’t make you do that…”Charlie took her hand and said with a gentle smile, “Dear, since Miss Young would like to offer her help, just accept her kindness as a form of respect.”“Huh, it’s not that I don’t want to accept her offer, but that’s too much help…”Charlie t

    Claire sighed heavily and said, “It’s hard to get a job now. I can only keep looking and see where my luck brings me.”“How about Emgrand?”Claire shook her head. “Are you kidding? Emgrand is not a supermarket. I can’t come and go as I please. Besides, they have a very strict employee evaluation and g
