Chapter 1874

Author: Lord Leaf
Isaac was following closely beside Carmen with a very respectful attitude.

When Charlie was still a few metres away from her, Carmen smiled and said, “Oh, Charlie! I have not seen you for so many years. You have grown up into such a fine young boy now!”

Charlie looked at Carmen and he could recall some remnants of the memories that he had from his childhood by looking at her face.

So, Charlie laughed slightly before he said, “I’m going to be twenty-seven years old soon. I’m no longer a young boy!”

Carmen had a very doting and affectionate look on her face as she smiled and said, “Oh! You really look so much like your father! You are really a chip off the old block!”

Charlie nodded before he smiled and said, “Aunt, it seems as though you’ve not changed much from how you were in the past.”

Carmen laughed before she said, “More than ten to twenty years have already passed by in the blink of an eye. I’m about to turn fifty soon, so how can I possibly still look the same as I was befo

    “Go home to take a look?”Charlie could not help but laughed when he heard Carmen’s words.When Carmen saw the fake laughter on his face, she said, “Charlie, you left home when you were so young, so it’s about time that you come home now. You aren’t young anymore. You’ve already been away from home for so many years, so it’s about time for you to come home and take a look.”Charlie nodded in agreement as he said, “You’re right. Since I’ve already left home for such a long time, I should really make some time to go back and have a look then.”As he spoke, he smiled before he said, “Well, if that is the case, then I’ll arrange a time at a later date. I will go back and visit home if I have time.”Charlie seemed to have already agreed to Carmen’s proposal, but in fact, he was simply trying to delay time.If he were to say that he was going to arrange a time to pay a visit after a period of time, then that was basically tantamount to the far and distant future. Anyway, he simply want

    As she spoke, Carmen stretched out one finger before she said arrogantly, “First of all, regarding Emgrand Group, when the time comes, you can continue to ask Doris to continue helping you look after the company. We’ve already investigated and looked into Doris’s background and she is a pretty capable person. During this period of time, Emgrand Group has developed and grown well in her hands. So, you can feel rest assured to hand the group over to her.”After that, Carmen lifted another finger before she said, “Secondly, you will have to deal with your current wife, Claire, and her family. We have also investigated and looked into the current situation and background of the Wilson family. To be honest, this kind of family is worth nothing at all to the Wade family. The Wilson family is not worthy of anything at all. So, how can they possibly be the Wade family’s in-laws?”Carmen had a disgusted look on her face at this time as she said, “So, I would advise you to divorce Claire as so

    Carmen never expected that Charlie would dare to talk to her like that!Moreover, when she heard him say that he had the right to inherit a quarter of the Wade family’s assets, she was enraged in an instant!Thus, she shouted sternly, “B*stard! You think too highly of yourself! Inheriting a quarter of the Wade family’s assets?! Who do you think you are?!”Charlie said in a cold voice, “I am Charlie Wade, and my father is Curtis Wade!”Carmen rebuked, “Your father has been dead for so many years, besides, do you think you have what it takes to inherit the Wade family assets? Dream on! You don’t deserve a penny of it!”Charlie stared at Carmen and laughed coldly. “For how my father fought for the Wade family back then, he should even be the patriarch of the family! You, on the other hand, have absolutely no say in this. According to the rules of the big families, a married daughter no longer has business with her maiden family. Since you have already married, you are no longer a mem

    Carmen thought that her threat had successfully made Charlie yield. Thus, she immediately sneered, “First, divorce your wife of unimportant origin. Then, return to the Wade family at your grandfather’s command. Now, Yule Golding has unified the Golding family, and his control over the entire Golding family has reached an unprecedented peak. You and his daughter were engaged. If you marry his daughter, it will be of great help to the Wade family.”Then, she added, “Otherwise, you can also try to win the heart of the eldest granddaughter of the Schulz family, that is, Sheldon’s daughter. She is very favored in the family, moreover, her mother was one of your father’s suitors. She may adore you just like how she loved your father, so she may be willing to let her daughter marry you, and it will be of greater help to the Wade family!”“Therefore, after you divorce your wife, first try your luck in pursuing the Schulz girl. If you guys hit it off, marry her. If not, marry Yule Golding’s d

    Seeing Charlie leave without hesitation, Carmen screamed in anger, “Charlie! I haven’t even finished talking yet, how dare you leave now! I’m your aunt! I’ll make you pay for being so disrespectful to me!”Charlie ignored her.In his opinion, this aunt of his was just a spoiled, foolish woman who grew up in a lenient and wealthy upbringing. She would always be so pompous and cocky, bossing people around. Although she was here for an official business on the order of Lord Wade, she only cared about her own larger-than-life reputation. Such a person would hardly become important even in the Wade family.Therefore, Charlie saw no reason to waste his time with her.After exiting the door, he immediately left Sky Garden. Isaac hurried forward and said nervously, “Mr. Charlie, why are you doing this to yourself? It will do you no good if Miss Carmen complains to Lord Wade later!”“So what?” Charlie grunted, “Even if she is a member of the Wade family, she is nothing but Lord Wade’s mess

    The steak and cutlery were scattered all over the floor as Carmen had swept them all off the table.As there were many broken pieces of glass on the floor, the female foreman of the Sky Garden was afraid that Carmen might hurt herself, so she hurriedly ushered two waitresses to clean up the mess.As Carmen was still in the spur of the moment, she was infuriated when she saw the foreman approaching her with the two waitresses, so she grabbed one of the waitresses and started slapping her face while cursing indignantly, “Did I ask you to come? Did I call for you?”The girl was crying and begging as she was slapped several times, “I’m sorry, Miss Carmen, please forgive me. I was afraid that you would cut yourself, so I’m here to clean up the broken glass…”Becoming even more infuriated, Carmen increased her strength as she started slapping the girl once again and shouted, “B*stard! Only come when I ask you to come! Don’t even let me see your face if I never call for you!”The foreman

    As soon as Carmen had left, Isaaz hurriedly asked the three employees, “What the hell just happened?!”Lizzy choked, “Mr. Cameron, Miss Carmen got angry and flipped the table, so Nancy brought us over to clean up the mess, but suddenly, Miss Carmen slapped us and even kicked Nancy in the stomach. Nancy is pregnant! I wanted to call the ambulance, but Miss Carmen smashed my phone…”Nancy, who was sitting on the floor in great pain, said, “Mr. Cameron, it’s all my fault. Please don’t punish them, punish me alone!”Isaac sighed and said, “No, I’m to blame for this. I didn’t manage to protect you all. I’ll have someone send you all to the hospital immediately, and I’ll give you a month’s leave and two hundred thousand each as compensation for your injuries.”Then, he looked at Nancy sitting on the floor and said seriously, “Nancy, I will contact the best gynecologist in Aurous Hill to check on you and your baby. I’ll ensure that the baby is okay at all costs. If the baby is okay, I wil

    “That’s not good!” Elaine said stubbornly, “Those green hats are my ultimate weapons against the Wilson family. I want them to remember every single day that Hannah was pregnant with an illegitimate child!” Suddenly, Elaine thought of something. She laughed and said, “Hey, I’ll hang these lanterns and green hats next to each other in a while. When the lanterns are switched on, they will be in contrast with the green hats. It’s absolutely striking! This will certainly drive the Wilson family mad!”  Claire advised her, “Mum, it’s the New Year. Let us forgive others!”Elaine quipped, “Don’t you advise me. It’s no use advising me. Don’t you know that my leg was broken by your grandma? And my two lost teeth were also because of her?! I’ll never forgive her for this matter!”   Seeing her mom’s determined face, Claire felt helpless. It was impossible to change mom’s decision.   Having said her piece, Elaine carried a bunch of red lanterns by herself and walked toward the elev

    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
