Chapter 1240

Author: Lord Leaf
Elaine was lying on the bed, watching a drama on her phone. She was bored to tears since she couldn’t go anywhere due to her injury, hence, she spent her time watching dramas.

When the drama was at the peak of its plot, the loud and ear-deafening honk echoed continuously from outside her house which irritated her to the extreme. She stomped to the balcony to have a look and saw a brand new Bentley parked in front of her house. The annoying honking came from the same car.

Elaine shouted angrily, “Hey, who the f*ck are you? Are you f*cking crazy? Why are you honking in front of my house?”

Christopher saw Elaine standing on the balcony yelling expletives through the car window. He grinned and said, “Look, Mom, the shrew is out cursing!”

“Haha!” Lady Wilson was overjoyed by Elaine’s reaction and said, “That shrew loves money the most, and if she knows that we are getting back on track, she’ll be so pissed off and jealous. I’ll create an illusion inside her head that I’m willing to acce

    Upon hearing Lady Wilson’s words, Elaine was taken aback and upset.Did someone really invest in the Wilson family? Was he or she crazy?Among the lousy few that were left in the Wilson family, who could they bring to the table? It was absolutely impossible that these people could get Wilson Group back on track! Investing in their company would be like throwing money down the drain!Thinking of this, Elaine immediately sneered. “Hey, old bat, please drop your pathetic act in front of me. Based on what I know about you and your lousy family members, even if Wilson Group reopens, it will definitely go bankrupt again in a few days. Just look at what you have left in the feeble family of yours! What can you expect from Harold the loser anyway? You should be thankful if he doesn’t spend all your money!”Elaine’s remarks also hit Lady Wilson’s sore spot.Although Donald Webb had invested in their company, it in no way meant that they would be able to be at ease in the future.After all

    In Lady Wilson’s opinion, vanity was the great flaw in Elaine’s character. Besides, she was also very greedy and a freeloader. If Lady Wilson were to give her a Bentley for real, she would definitely try to persuade Claire to succumb to her request.However, Lady Wilson overlooked another attribute in Elaine’s character, which was holding a grudge!Elaine loved to gain advantages by unfair means, but she held grudges to the extreme.Previously, she had been persuading Claire to return to Wilson Group because she had no grudge against Lady Wilson other than some minor conflicts.These minor conflicts wouldn’t have any effect on Elaine when it came to money.The tables had turned now!Elaine’s hostility towards Lady Wilson went off the charts!When they were in the detention center, Lady Wilson had influenced Jennifer to torture Elaine severely. Not only did they torture her by all means but they had also broken her leg before she left. Because of these tormenting experiences, Ela

    Charlie was initially planning to take his wife out for a drive. However, as he was about to open the gate using his remote, the gate had already opened by itself.He did not know that this was all Elaine’s credit. As he was wondering about it, he saw a black car parked outside their gate. It seemed as though there was an old lady standing beside the car.Upon taking a closer look, Charlie discovered that the old lady was actually none other than Claire’s grandmother!Claire was also very surprised. She did not understand why her grandmother was outside their gate.Charlie could tell that the car next to the old lady was a Bentley Continental.He could not help but feel a little surprised. How could the Wilson family possibly have the money to buy a Bentley? Was it given to them by Donald? This grandson was really willing to spend just to disgust him.At this time, Harold, who was sitting in the car, was too shocked to even speak when he saw an Aston Martin being driven out of Ch

    Harold felt as though he had suffered a few consecutive blows.He asked in astonishment, “How did that pathetic jerk Charlie get such an expensive car? Moreover, it isn’t just one, but two cars!”Christopher also had a very ugly expression on his face. “I guess Charlie has gone out to cheat people again! I don’t understand. Are all the wealthy and powerful people in Aurous Hill out of their minds? Why do they trust in that pathetic jerk Charlie so much?”Harold also felt very uncomfortable and he said angrily, “I want to know the reason too! D*mn it! I’ve been waiting for that b*stard Charlie to suffer terribly. However, he’s still living extremely well now!”Wendy’s eyes were flushed red as she said aggrievedly, “If it weren’t because of Charlie, Gerald and I would have already been married now. Our family will not be in such a miserable state then. Besides that, my mother would not have been sent to the coal mine and suffered so much injustice there.”Christopher snapped angrily

    When Lady Wilson heard that the estimated value of these two cars would amount to almost one hundred million dollars, she could not help but shudder at the thought of it.Two cars would add up to one hundred million dollars? What the hell was this? These two cars were almost worth the price of a first class villa at Thompson First.She had already felt that she was very incredible because she had spent three million dollars on a car. That could only mean that Charlie’s car was worth more than thirty of the cars that she had bought.The old lady could not help but feel extremely uncomfortable.She initially thought that she would be able to humiliate others. Unexpectedly, she had only ended up humiliating herself.The point was, would someone actually be willing to spend so much money on an expensive car? Was he crazy?Only a car made out of pure gold would be worth that price, right?Lady Wilson was feeling very indignant. Harold, who was standing aside, was afraid that the old

    Lady Wilson shook her head.She really could not come up with any good plans under this kind of situation.Wendy said, “Grandma, why don’t we try to use Wilson Group to suppress Claire’s studio then?”“That does not make any sense.” Lady Wilson replied solemnly, “All of Claire’s orders are from Emgrand Group, the White family and the Quinton family. How are we supposed to suppress her in any way?”“That is also true…”Wendy could not help but feel extremely annoyed.She had always been comparing herself to Claire in various ways. This made her feel a lot of hatred and resentment towards Claire deep down in her heart.Unexpectedly, Claire and Charlie were not suffering or having a bad time at all. Instead, they were both enjoying a very good life right now. This made her feel extremely uncomfortable.Wendy felt a lot of hatred and envy towards Claire when she thought about how Charlie could afford to own two top luxury cars that even Gerald could only hope for.How could Claire

    What Christopher hated the most was not Hannah who had made a cuckold out of him but instead, it was Elaine who had insulted him again and again.Christopher really felt like crushing Elaine to pieces whenever he thought about the twenty green hats that were fluttering in the wind on Elaine’s balcony.Every time those twenty green hats swayed as the wind blew, it was like a merciless lash whipping at him.So, he felt that if they wanted to exact revenge, it would definitely be most appropriate for them to start from Elaine.Most importantly, they would not arouse Charlie’s hatred if they exacted revenge on Elaine.Otherwise, if they started attacking Claire, then it would be tantamount to rubbing Charlie the wrong way. That way, it was very likely that they would lose their lives then.Even Donald did not dare to attack Claire. So, his family would naturally not dare to cause such trouble for themselves.Christopher’s suggestion immediately gained his whole family’s approval.A

    Claire’s high school classmate was getting married the next day.The couple drove a super sports car each as they set off at dawn from the villa at Thompson First to Wylland Park, which was a suburb in Aurous Hill.Wylland Park was about sixty kilometers away from the city center. Although it was a little far away, fortunately, there was a direct highway leading from the city center directly to Wylland Park.Claire’s high school classmate lived in the outskirts of Wylland Park. When they had both followed the directions on the navigation system to the community where the other party lived at, they discovered that it turned out to be an old community that was probably at least twenty to thirty years old.All the houses in this community were no more than six floors high and the houses were all built very densely together. The green paint on the outside of the houses was all already mottled, revealing the color of the cement.The entrance of the community was also very narrow. In ad

    However, Jimmy realized something important even as he sighed in relief. "Wait, Mr. Wade… I know I should settle things in the family Stateside, but won't I be arrested upon arrival?""That's Julien's department," Charlie chuckled and turned toward the man. "Tell your butler not to send the evidence to the feds. If it has reached them already, ask to have it back and tell the feds they saw nothing."Julien promptly nodded. "I'll text him right now. You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Wade."Jimmy remained worried. "But sir, I think Nate's not going to let this slide. The man is cunning—he deliberately dug a pit so we'd fall into it, and he gathered all the dirt he could on us to be used as leverage when necessary."Charlie shook his head. "That's no big deal. Julien can make sure that you're fine even if the feds get the evidence."Julien nodded nearby. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. The decision remains in your hands, either way. Just say the word, and it's 25 to life… otherwise, not e

    The fact that Jimmy was a partner in Ares LLP already meant he had skill, while Matilda had herself been retired for years and definitely had lost her touch a little. So, having someone like Jimmy who had stayed on the frontlines all this while would definitely be no issue.And in turn, it was a good thing for Jimmy as it was better than the kennels either way.Charlie then asked Jimmy pointedly, "You say you're interested, but are you sincere about it?"Jimmy nodded without hesitation. "Yes, absolutely!""No regrets? We're talking about ten years here.""None, absolutely none!""Do you know what to say if anyone asks?""Yes, of course! I chose to further my career here in Oskia, and it was absolutely voluntary! That's what I'd say even if my family asked!"Charlie nodded. "Good. Then, you will have two weeks. Go home and set your affairs in order and report in for work afterward.""No problem!" Jimmy nodded repeatedly, actually surprised and grateful that Charlie would let hi

    And yet, Julien was suddenly clapping his hands, and exclaiming excitedly, "Yes, right! We should get his wife and son over too for a happy reunion!"He then paused and quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no! I mean, they should each be caged with one empty cage separating each of their cages. They can see each other and talk, but there will be no touching. How dare he flex on me—I gotta teach him a lesson to remember!"Jimmy dropped limply on his rump, and Matilda beckoned for Paul to help him up while turning toward Julien as she pursed her lips. "Please, Mr. Rothschild… Even if you don't accept his apology, don't bring his family into this. It's against Oskian tradition—you'd insult your family's name!"Julien shrugged, not hesitating to retort, "What do your traditions have to do with me? If I mean to hurt him, forget his family—I'll drag his dogs over too!"Seeing that Julien was so furious, Charlie decided to stop him, or he might actually go through with it."That's enough, J

    Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h

    Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des

    As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside

    Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e

    Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott

    Fuming, Jimmy snapped at Julien, "If you insist on playing it like that, I will call my boss, and you can talk to him yourself!"Julien chuckled. "That's unnecessary. I've never met him. He would never recognize my voice."Jimmy laughed and nodded despite himself. "Impressive—you can really come up with anything! You don't have his number because he's beneath you, you refuse to call him because he's beneath you, and when I say I'll call him for you, you say he won't recognize your voice. Well, how do you suppose we should sort this out? At least prove you're a Rothschild, or anyone could claim that they are—"Julien held up a hand to stop him. "Then, how about this? I'll ask my butler to talk to your boss."Jimmy laughed even more loudly as if it were the best joke ever. "Hahaha!!! Butler, you say?! You really know how to talk! Alright, I'll wait and see what your 'butler' can do… I mean, what you can do. We'll see whether my boss calls me!"Julien ignored him and whipped out his
