When he heard of Lord Schulz’s arrangement, Sheldon nearly wanted to vomit blood! ‘It was clearly Lord Schulz who f*cking created so many problems, but I need to go to Australia to avoid the spotlight?! What the f*ck is going on!’ Thinking of this, he immediately said, “Dad, I can accept it if you want me to avoid the public eye. However, there’s no need for me to go to Australia, right? There are still many things to do in the company, plus I need to think of ways to salvage my relationship with Helen!” Lord Schulz coldly replied, “If you stay here, the paparazzi will follow your every move. Don’t you forget, there are so many families out there who are just waiting for a chance to bring us down. You’re their breaking point!” “Thus, I think it’s better if you hide in Australia. Don’t we still have a seaside villa in Queensland? You can go and relax there. As for the matters here, I’ll help you.” Sheldon almost collapsed. He angrily sneered in his heart, ‘T

For any teenager in their twenties to suddenly find out about their father having an illegitimate daughter, it would be hard to accept this kind of reality. This was especially so for Sophie. She was the same as her mother, Helen. Both had serious mysophobia in regards to relationships. Despite never having dated anyone till today, Sophie would certainly be like her mother and insist on divorcing her husband if the same thing happened to her. Thus, even though it was hard for her to accept this reality at the moment, she fully agreed with her mother’s decision. Regarding this matter, Jaime had a little bit of male chauvinism. To him, it was impossible for his father to be loyal to marriage for a lifetime based on his identity. A wealthy man would rarely be satisfied with only one partner of the opposite gender. Hence, it was normal to flirt outside. After all, he grew up in an upper-class social circle from a young age. In this circle, he had

Helen had been wanting to visit Aurous Hill for almost twenty years.Ever since the death of Curtis and his wife, she had wanted to visit Aurous Hill at least once. After all, that was the place where Curtis had finally resided and perished.As a woman who had loved him for most of her life, she especially wanted to visit Aurous Hill to walk, see, and live for a while, trying to find traces of Curtis’ existence in the city.However, as a married woman, her morality had always gotten the upper hand over her that she should not go to Aurous Hill because that would be unfair to her husband.The secret visit to the Wade family’s ancestral tomb to pay respect to Curtis was already making Helen feel guilt toward Sheldon, so it would be inappropriate to visit Aurous Hill.But now, she no longer had those moral constraints.Sheldon had cheated on her in the first place and broken the marital vow, so she no longer needed to be bound for any reason. It was time to realize her wish to visit

Sophie quickly said, “Okay, Mom. Have a good rest tonight. I’ll call you in the morning!”“Okay.”After Sophie ended the call, Jaime said with some concern, “Sophie, Dad has always been a bit evasive about Aurous Hill. If he finds out that we’re going there with Mom, will he be mad?”Sophie snorted coldly, “Who cares? He has an illegitimate daughter, and he even dared to bring her home and put her under the eyes of our family. Why doesn’t he think that we will be mad too?!”After a pause, Sophie said angrily, “Seriously, I want to confront him about this! Us going to Aurous Hill is a sign for him to know that it’s all his fault!”Jaime said awkwardly, “Hey, we are his children. It isn’t nice for us to bring this up or even confront him about it…”With that, Jaime added, “Think about it, how many of those rich and famous guys in the world are completely loyal to their wives? I bet most of them have an affair or two outside. Dad was just confused at that time. He is still considere

That night, the entire Eastcliff was greatly shaken.After the big stir the Schulz family had caused in Japan and the family had then been targeted by the Japanese National Security Bureau, it had brought a huge blow to the reputation as well as the influence of the Schulz family.At the same time, other families in Eastcliff, led by the Wade family, were restless and ready for action.Now, the Schulz family had not only lost a large number of martial artists, but they had also offended their overseas plutocrats, causing them to shrink in power and be humble. Because of this, it was the best opportunity for other families to seize the Schulz family’s wealth and power.Jeremiah was particularly excited about this. He felt that this was God’s blessing for his family to rise again!Therefore, he gathered all his children except Carmen and immediately made a three-year plan.From now on, for the next three years, the Wade family would launch an all-out attack on the Schulz family, ju

Eastcliff, the Dunn family.Before Helen arrived home, her parents, as well as her siblings, knew about the scandal of the Schulz family and also Sheldon’s illegitimate daughter.Therefore, before she returned, Lord Dunn urged the other siblings to go home.Lord Dunn and Lady Dunn knew Helen’s temperament and character very well. They knew that as soon as Helen learned about this, she would definitely come home, so they didn’t call her, nor did they let others call her, and they gathered at home to wait for her return.When Helen’s car drove into the Dunn residence, her parents and siblings came out to welcome her.When Helen saw her whole family appearing in front of her, she was exceptionally moved.Unlike other families who were into business and industrialization, the elders of the Dunn family held important positions in politics and academics, hence, money was never an issue in the family.It was because they didn’t care about money that there was not much of a rivalry betw

When Jefferson let out a sigh, it made everyone somewhat grimace in regret.Lady Dunn hurriedly pinched him on the waist and chided in a low voice, “Shush! Stop rubbing it in! Hurry and get in to get ready for dinner!”Jefferson sighed and said, “Well, Helen is so big now. She is more open-minded than we are. I’m also just stating my opinion. You don’t have to be too discreet about it.”Helen nodded and said seriously, “That’s right, Mom. I’m not angry or sad at all. You don’t have to be so sensitive.”Lady Dunn was shocked. “Helen, you’re truly not angry at Sheldon for keeping this secret from you for so many years?”Helen said earnestly, “Nope, I’m not angry. Instead, I feel relieved.”Jefferson laughed. “Wonderful! I’m happy to know that you’ve moved on! Frankly speaking, I’ve always felt that you’ve been unhappy over the years. Now that you’ve moved on, I’m heartily happy for you.”Helen nodded with a smile. “Thanks, Father!”Jefferson laughed out loud and beckoned, “Let’s

After smoking the same cigarette for twenty years, the tobacco company had improved its factory’s production line, upgraded the formula, and replaced the cigarette paper and filter material.Everyone felt that the upgraded version was more exquisite and upscale than before, but Jefferson felt that the taste was not right and could not adapt to it. Later, he had even fallen sick because of this.When his subordinates had heard about his hospitalization, he had hurriedly gone to visit him. After learning that Jefferson’s illness had been caused by the difference in the taste of the cigarette he had smoked for twenty years, he immediately called and made the tobacco company restart the discontinued production line that had been dismantled and was ready for scrapping, and they produced the original version of the cigarettes for Jefferson alone. Miraculously, it had instantly cured his illness.However, Jefferson felt guilty for abusing his influence and power, so he specifically ask

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

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

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

In the first place, Jimmy had come to Oskia to claim a stake in Smith Group Corporate Law, ideally strong-arming Paul and Matilda into splitting the firm in two, with Jimmy taking everything in the States while Paul kept what was left.The way Jimmy saw it, Paul and Matilda were going to be permanently residing in Oskia anyway. There was no way they could manage things over in another country properly, so it was basically returning the firm to the rightful owner.Naturally, Jimmy also knew that despite bearing the Smith family name, the success of Smith Group Corporate Law was all the work of Jimmy's brother and Matilda. Jimmy's father had helped to a certain extent, but that extent of financial support wouldn't amount to an investment at all. No judge in the world would support his claim to the law firm's shares.Therefore, when he learned that Matilda was remarrying, he thought he could seize the moment to cause a scene. Nothing could be better if she and Paul decided to sacrifice

Jimmy deliberately raised his voice as he said coolly, "Oh, but I didn't want to intervene. It's you and your mother who left the States in a split second, taking with you the law firm which bears the Smith family name. Don't you think such behavior is inappropriate?"Seeing the surprised reactions of the guests, Paul promptly retorted, "The law firm uses the Smith family name, but it is my parents' legacy! They worked blood and sweat to build it from the ground up, and as their only son, I have a veto when it comes to decisions. Or did we need your permission to move to Oskia?""Where's your conscience, Paul?" Jimmy pursed his lips. "Even if you don't know how Smith Group Corporate Law was founded, is that the case for you? It would have been a joke if it weren't for my father's connections!"Hell, it's no exaggeration that it was my father who fought to expand the law firm across America, and just using the family name means you're borrowing the family's influence. The family hono

The blonde man's voice drew everyone's attention in an instant.Despite his foreign appearance, he spoke Oskian fluently and walked with a haughty gait, almost as though he was above the rest.Paul's expression turned grim the instant he saw him, and he hurried over with Charlie.Still, before Paul could speak, Charlie stopped him, frowning at the man as he said, "Don't you think it's inappropriate to come slinging personal attacks at someone else's wedding?"The man clearly didn't know Charlie, and he wasn't worried, seeing that he was young.Snorting in disdain, he asked, "You must be from the groom's family, yes? Please tell him that he doesn't deserve my sister-in-law.""It's up to the happy couple to decide that," Charlie retorted quietly. "Deserving someone is no issue as long as they both love each other."The man pursed his lips and looked pointedly around him. "Just look at how simple this wedding is. Forget picking an unassuming city like Aurous Hill—is there a single
