Chapter 1951

Author: Lord Leaf
Lady Wilson felt as if the world was spinning around her after Jennifer slapped her.

Never did she expect that Jennifer did not make a move against her, despite all those insulting slanders being thrown at her earlier.

Yet when she showed the white feather, she rubbed Jennifer the wrong way.

Although Jennifer was a crude person, she was indeed a filial daughter.

When she heard about her mother attempted suicide by drinking pesticide, after being forced by her sister-in-law, she quickly rushed home from her in-laws.

At that time, her mother was already terminally ill and was beyond cure.

At the hospital, Jennifer’s mother told her in her weak voice that she wanted to go home because it was uncomfortable to stay there.

Jennifer knew that her mother knew she was dying, so she wanted to help her family save some money by discontinuing the unnecessary treatments in the hospital.

She wanted to take her mother back to her in-laws’ place to show filial respect for her in the remainin

    Lady Wilson was infuriated, but at this moment, she would not dare to retaliate even if she had the nerve.Donald’s men said in a cold voice, “We are here today on Mr. Webb’s order to empty all the assets in this villa. According to Mr. Webb, other than the hard decorations and large pieces of furniture like beds and sofa, all other appliances, valuable furnishings, as well as the wine in the basement need to be removed from the villa!”Upon hearing this, Lady Wilson was in incomparable despair.Initially, she kept thinking about selling the appliances in the villa and especially those wines in the basement cellar, which could be sold for at least a million dollars, for some extra cash if she had no money. However, she did not expect that rich Donald would take these things into account, and had his men removed them before she could do anything about them!Grimacing, Lady Wilson said, “Gentlemen, you can move the appliances and furniture, but can you keep the wines, please? We like

    Never in Lady Wilson’s wildest dream did she expect that Hannah, who was always so submissive, would retaliate and shout back at her.Hannah’s backbiting drove her up the wall. However, after realizing that she had no backup now, she was left utterly deflated and dared not say a word.If she had been nicer to Jennifer at the beginning, the three of them would have become her loyal lapdogs, and Hannah would not dare to make a fuss.Unfortunately, now she had made enemies with Jennifer and the ladies, and if she offended Hannah at this time, she would have no one else to help her.Therefore, she said sheepishly, “I don’t want to fight with you. Hurry and get Christopher back to his room, and then carry Harold in!”Grimaced in pain and choking with sobs, Christopher said, “Mom, thank goodness you still remember me. I can barely hold myself any longer…”Lady Wilson hurriedly said, “Wendy, Hannah. Hurry up and carry Christopher back to his room so that he can take a rest.”As the two

    Seeing Harold in such a miserable state, Hannah could not help but shed tears and said, “Harold, I’m sorry but my hands are tied. We have nothing edible at home and Donald’s men have taken everything that we can trade for money. Where can I find you something to eat…”Wendy cried, “Mom, why don’t I go find a job tomorrow?”Hannah nodded and said, “Good idea, but you can only look for a job tomorrow, and wait for the following month for the paycheck. It’s almost New Year’s Eve; we can’t possibly celebrate New Year on an empty stomach…”At this time, Lady Wilson suggested, “That won’t do. Just look for a job that pays on an hourly or daily basis!”Wendy said, “Seems like that’s the only way…”Meanwhile, on the third floor, Jennifer was having a meeting with Yara and Yulia too. They were facing the same situation as the Wilson family — they had no money.So, Jennifer said to the other two, “It’s a blessing that we get to live in such a big and luxurious villa, but we still need to f

    Charlie marveled at Elaine’s spiritual victory method, and at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief as the matter had been satisfactorily resolved.Before this, he was worried most about Carmen exposing his identity. After all, his aunt was always being so arrogant and cocky in her modus operandi. She would have gotten carried away, and inadvertently revealed herself as a member of the Wade family.Fortunately, Carmen came up with a tawdry idea by directly giving Elaine a 100 million cheque, which caused her to immediately raise a red flag and classify her as a fraud.Moreover, the word “Citibank” stung the deepest and most painful wound inside Elaine, resulting in her direct response to Carmen’s bribe by means of force.At this point, Charlie could not help feeling amused.This aunt of his had been living in a prosperous and privileged environment in Eastcliff for so many years that she was used to being treated with respect everywhere she went. However, never did she expec

    Carmen was born with a silver spoon stuck in her mouth, and she had enjoyed a good, wealthy life. Due to the privileged and lavish upbringing, she was always arrogant and aloof.The best punishment for her was to let her live a hard life and take the edge off her spirit.With that in mind, Charlie sent a voice message to Albert that said, “Albert, the room and its surroundings look just fine to me, but you must have your men guard her 24/7; never allow her to buy anything online or order takeout!”“If she buys something or orders takeout, your men must intercept the delivery man and make sure it never reaches her.”“As for her daily meals, just let your men buy whatever they feel like buying for her, but bear in mind that it must not exceed fifty dollars a day.”Presently—in Cliffcouls.Albert played the voice message that Charlie had just sent through the loudspeaker.When Carmen heard it, she instantly grimaced. Irritated, she shouted. “This is too much! I can’t do online shop

    Carmen never expected what Albert said would really happen.She thought of asking for preferential treatment from Charlie, but instead of submitting to her request, Charlie instead reduced her daily meal budget from fifty to a measly thirty dollars.She finally experienced the pain that Lady Wilson had been put through.If she had known that this would be the consequence, why did she even bother making a fuss?Looking at Carmen’s face that was awash with agony, Albert mocked with a playful smirk. “What did I just say? I told you Master Wade would surely decrease your meal budget, but you refused to believe me. So, are you beginning to now?” Donning a gloomy expression, Carmen said nothing, nor did she dare say anything, because she knew that the more she spoke up, the worse the consequences would be. She might really end up eating bread and hotdog if she went on.Albert smiled when he saw her being submissive and continued taunting. “Miss Wade, I hope you enjoy your seven days

    Even if Carmen was at fault for going to Charlie’s mother-in-law on her own accord, Charlie should not have treated Carmen so harshly. He even forced her to stay in Aurous Hill’s shantytown for a week on New Year’s Day.This proved that it was absolutely not as easy as Jeremiah had imagined if he wanted to tame Charlie, let alone have him return to Wade family and follow his command.Jeremiah decided that he should not rush this matter. Otherwise, it might backfire.Realizing this fact, he said, “Carmen, you were at fault in this matter after all. So even if Charlie did go a little too far, there is no need for you to completely turn against him. I’ll have to ask you to bear with him for a few more days, and we’ll come up with a better solution in the long run.”Relieved, Carmen quickly replied, “I know, Father. I’m sorry that I can’t be by your side during this period of time, especially during the New Year…”Jeremiah smiled faintly. “It’s okay. It’s not a big deal, don’t you min

    “The man who rescued Jaime Schulz?”Jeremiah asked in surprise. “Is this the same mysterious man we talked about the other day?”“Yes!” Clayton nodded. “Rumor has it that when Sophie and Jaime were kidnapped in Japan, they were rescued by this mysterious man.”Jeremiah quizzed again as his curiosity increased. “The mysterious man rescued the siblings in Japan, and Schulz family is looking for him here. Are you saying that this man is an Oskian?”Clayton nodded slowly in response. “Highly likely, yes. Why else would Schulz family look for the man appearing in Japan here in Oskia?”Jeremiah grinned delightfully and said, “Whoever this mysterious man is, one thing’s for sure, his ability is beyond anyone’s imagination!”“Yes!” Clayton agreed. “He could kill so many Iga ninjas and rescue both siblings at the same time, which meant his power is absolutely extraordinary!”Jeremiah blurted, “If our Wade family can have such a talent under our wings, we have nothing to fear about in the

    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
