The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 2147
At such a close distance, the power of the heavy-duty compound crossbow was enough to penetrate a human skull.Also, Mr. Good was a top assassin who was extremely good at using a crossbow as his weapon, so he had absolute certainty that he could kill Charlie with a single blow.He had been working as an assassin for fifteen years and had never failed to kill his target with a crossbow. In the blink of an eye, he aimed the crossbow at Charlie and pulled the trigger without any hesitation!The bowstring produced a crisp buzzing sound followed by the release of the arrow made of titanium alloy and carbon fiber that sped straight toward Charlie’s temple.The speed of the arrow exceeded one hundred meters per second, not to mention that this heavy-duty compound crossbow was a modified killing machine, so its speed was almost close to two hundred meters per second.At such a speed, the target had less than 0.5 seconds to respond at such a close distance, which meant he wouldn’t even a

Although Rosalie was unwilling to admit her own failure and inadequacy, she couldn’t help but be impressed by Charlie’s unbelievably strong power and extraordinary strength. It had completely exceeded her own perception of martial arts.Charlie sneered and turned his head to look at the opposite vessel.Mr. Good, who was holding the compound crossbow, was startled by his glare. He hesitated and then whispered to the captain, “No matter if I manage to shoot this last arrow or not, you must turn the ship’s horsepower to the maximum and leave this place at the fastest speed this vessel can muster! That man is too powerful. We’d better stay as far away from him as possible!”The captain immediately put his hand on the engine power gear while saying to the first mate beside him, “After Mr. Good shoots the second arrow, you immediately hard a-port, and I’ll simultaneously turn the horsepower to the maximum. Do you understand?”The first mate immediately answered, “Yes!”“Good!” The capt

Everyone in the vessel screamed in horror upon hearing that remark!At this moment, there was no one on the vessel who could fight Charlie!Rosalie had been hit by a poisoned arrow and was about to die soon, while the remaining martial artists of the Schulz family had all been thrown into the sea. Some of them had sunk into the cold seawater due to exhaustion.What remained was Mr. Good, who was hidden secretly in the vessel, and his existence had been kept secret even to Rosalie. However, he was now dead through and through as well.The only people left in the cabin were a few crew members besides the captain and first mate. They had never practiced martial arts at all, so they were even less of a match for Charlie.Just as they were all jittery, not knowing what to do, Charlie suddenly kicked the door of the cockpit open and walked in.Upon his appearance, the crew members were so scared that their legs went weak. One of them knelt on the ground, crying and begging, “Please s

The captain was so scared that he pissed his pants on the spot and cried out, “Spare me! I’ll talk! I’ll tell you everything!”Then, he choked, “I’ve always been in charge of driving the cruise ship for Lord Schulz, but this time, he sent me here specifically for this task. Originally, he did not intend to rescue Miss Schulz tonight as it would not only cost a lot of money, but it would also mean getting himself into a great deal of trouble, so he deliberately set up a scheme…”Charlie frowned and asked, “What scheme?”The captain answered frankly, “According to the plan, after the ship leaves tonight, I would sail it directly to the designated location on the sea where the Maritime Self-Defense Force will be waiting in ambush there. Once we arrive at the designated location, they will immediately siege our ship and capture Miss Schulz…”Charlie was even more confused. “Capture her? But why? Why does he want Rosalie to be captured again after putting in so much effort to rescue her
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 2151
The captain simply wanted to survive at this moment. So, he asked Charlie in a trembling voice, “Would you spare my life if I listened to you and obeyed everything you ask me to do?”Charlie nodded as he gave his word, “As long as you are willing to cooperate with me obediently, I will certainly spare your life. I can even arrange for you to have a new identity so that you can start a new life.”As soon as the other party heard this, he immediately said with gratitude, “I will certainly obey you, then!”Charlie was very satisfied, and he said, “Okay. You should do everything as I say, then!”Having said that, Charlie thought for a while before he said, “Since that old man, Cadfan, has already come up with his own contingency plan, you can just tell him that Rosalie has already been killed as per his contingency plan.”After that, he immediately whispered a few words into the other party’s ear.The captain then nodded before he picked up his satellite phone immediately.

At this time, the captain hurriedly said, “Lord Schulz, I will set off now. I will certainly find the body and send it to the Japanese Self-Defense Force!”Cadfan replied, “You don’t need to come back if you cannot figure out a way to get this done!”“Okay, Lord Schulz!” The captain agreed immediately. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Charlie with a pleading look on his face as he said, “Sir, if Cadfan Schulz finds out that I lied to him, he will certainly hack me into a thousand pieces…”Charlie replied indifferently, “Don’t worry. Since you have already acted according to my instructions, I will naturally keep my word and honor my promise!”Having said that, Charlie continued, “The few of you should come to Aurous Hill with me tonight. I will help all of you settle down in a safe place after arriving in Aurous Hill. At that time, all of you can live incognito for a while first. After I am done dealing with the Schulz family, all of you will be able to return to your own i

When Charlie saw that Rosalie’s face was full of curiosity at this time, he smiled slightly as he said, “This story tells of a rich heir who wanted to pursue and go after a very beautiful girl. However, this rich heir was very stingy, and he did not want to spend too much money just to win this beautiful girl over. So, he put on an act as he pretended to tell this beautiful girl that he was going to buy her a Ferrari…”“After that, the rich heir bribed a Ferrari salesman and asked the salesman to help him put on a show.”“When he brought the beautiful girl with him to look at the car, the car salesman told them that there was no stock available at the moment. So, they could only place a booking first. After that, the rich heir pretended to place a deposit of one hundred thousand dollars before he received a contract for the booking of the car.”“The beautiful girl thought that the Ferrari the rich heir was buying for her was already certain, so she climbed into the rich heir’s bed t

At this time, Jasmine also walked out onto the deck and asked Charlie in surprise, “Master Wade, are these people here for me?”Charlie shook his head. “No. They are here for me.”Jasmine was even more surprised when she saw Rosalie, who was motionless as she had an arrow stuck in her leg. So, she hurriedly asked him, “Master Wade, this woman is…”Charlie looked at Rosalie before he smiled slightly and said, “This little beauty here was our enemy before this, but she should not be considered as our enemy anymore.”After he was done speaking, he raised his brows at Rosalie again before he smiled and asked, “Little beauty, am I right?”Rosalie felt a little angry and embarrassed.Although she had already seen the Schulz family’s true colors, and although Charlie had indeed saved her life, she did not have a good impression of Charlie at all.After all, Charlie was the one who had reported her companions and herself to the Japanese Self-Defense Forces in the first place.Amongst h

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6609
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

Naturally, Jimmy couldn't care less about Julien's suggestion, even looking at him pointedly from head to toe while smirking in contempt, "What, do you think I'd just do what any nutjob tells me to do just because they're claiming to be the Rothschilds' heir apparent?"Julien nodded, still smiling. "Good point, but don't worry—it's the same whether you call him or he calls you."Jimmy laughed. "I was offering you a way out, but you want to keep pressing your luck? Since you don't care to back off, let's see how you're going to finish this fight."Then, he shrugged while pointing at Yolden. "Well, it's the perfect chance to measure Matilda's husband, I guess."Based on what he saw of Yolden, there was no way he would buy Julien's claims, and thus labeled him an impostor in his mind.An ordinary lecturer in Aurous Hill, being friends with the Rothschilds' heir apparent? Not to mention that there had been plenty of fraudulent cases outside the States where the Rothschild name was use
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6607
Jimmy was taken aback since he didn't recognize Julien at all, mainly because the Rothschilds had always kept out of the public eye.In fact, it was basically impossible to gather genuine information about the Rothschilds online, as it was a mix of press releases and gossip. Most online biographies would only be about the older generations or certain frivolous figures. Any information about key members like Steve would never be searchable online.Matilda was confused as well, not quite understanding who Julien was since he wasn't on the list of guests invited.Seeing that she was confused, Julien turned and smiled at Yolden, "So, Professor, shouldn't you introduce me to the bride?"Yolden finally remembered that and quickly nodded, "Sorry, it slipped my mind."Turning toward Matilda, he smiled, "Darling, this is Julien Rothschild… A friend of mine from the states…"Julien's full name left everyone within earshot gaping as the Rothschild name was way too famous across the globe.

Seeing that Jimmy was getting a little nervous, Charlie smiled and assured him, "Please, you have nothing to worry about. No one's going to do anything to you, but if you feel threatened in any way, you can call the cops. The Oskian emergency hotline is 110, by the way."Jimmy was slightly relieved as he could see that Charlie really wasn't trying to make things awkward for him, and he straightened his collar as he said, "Actually, I didn't mean to cause trouble—I'm pleased that Matilda has found true love once more, and if we can be friends, I can set aside my claim and stay for the rest of this wedding, offering the newlyweds our best wishes as a representative of my family."Still, his expression showed contempt as he turned toward Yolden. "Also, I'm really curious and looking forward to seeing what connections Professor Hart might have that you say could be better than Bill.""You'll see soon enough," Charlie smiled and nodded.Jimmy remained skeptical and scoffed, "I really do
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6605
If Charlie really did get Jimmy to stay, who knew what other rubbish Jimmy would spout.As for Jimmy, he was actually surprised Charlie was asking him to stay, and his instincts told him that Charlie definitely didn't mean well.Not only that, he was on foreign soil—wouldn't he be defenseless if Charlie called in his friends to beat him up?Hence, he shook his head without hesitation as he said, "I'm sorry, but my sister-in-law is quite keen for me to leave, so I have no reason to stay and add to her problems. And it is her big day. I can afford to let her save face instead of spilling the beans on her all at once.""Oh, but you were complaining about the lack of important people just now!" Charlie quickly interjected. "It just so happens that we have a big-shot on his way here, and he's a good friend of the groom. When I told him about you over the phone, he said to keep you here no matter what it took, since he would like to talk to you face to face."Jimmy frowned. "What, are y
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6604
And with those words, Jimmy turned to leave.Despite threatening Matilda, there was no such agreement, and he knew that Matilda was well aware of that.Regardless, the only strategy he had in mind when he came to Oskia was harassment. As such, he simply came up with a lie to make Matilda look bad in public. All it took from there was just for one person to relay what he had said—even if it were all lies, Matilda's character would still be called into question.He made himself very clear so that Matilda would understand that if she didn't give in, his family would keep hounding her to take their two pounds of flesh. Even if she wouldn't surrender the stateside estates and human resources of Smith Group Corporate Law, they would still claim a sizable chunk.But if that failed too, they would just have to destroy Matilda's reputation along with Smith Group Corporate Law.Either way, they were not letting her off easy!And reading that much from Jimmy's behavior, Matilda snapped co
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6603
Jimmy didn't expect Matilda to break down the share ownership of Smith Group Corporate Law to such detail, and he hollered as he was starting to feel embarrassed, "Now, you're just being irresponsible, Matilda. My father gave my brother a million to start the law firm in the first place, and they had agreed that the family would have a stake, albeit only at 49%, to not deny your decision-making as a startup. Or are you denying it?"Matilda immediately became furious and snapped, "Bullshit! That was just a loan of one million, and the agreed term was three years. However, your brother returned it in one! I even asked him to return the money with every single one of his siblings watching, since you might all get skeptical, yet suddenly, you're calling it an investment?""You said he's returned it? Well, what proof do you have?" Jimmy quickly shot back. "Our entire family can testify that the money hasn't come back to us!""So, this is how you're going to play it?" Matilda smirked. "Th
