Chapter 2642

Author: Lord Leaf
Charlie felt very moved in his heart, and he said softly, “My dear wife, to be honest, I really do not want to leave right now either. However, the customer this time is a regular customer of mine, and I really cannot turn him down.”

Having said that, Charlie paused slightly before he continued, “Wife, why don’t we do this instead? I promise you that I will not accept any new requests for the next month after I am done with the job this time!”

The reason why Charlie promised that he would not accept any request for one month was because it would be the Tomb Sweeping Festival slightly after a month, and he would have to go to Eastcliff to participate in the ancestor worship ceremony then. When the time came, he would definitely have to use Feng Shui as an excuse to explain things to Claire, then.

When Claire, who was on the other end of the line, heard Charlie saying that he would not be accepting any Feng Shui jobs for one month, her mood finally eased up a little. She also spoke in

We cannot be wasting our dollars to be reading rubbish. The writer should be mindful of what she writes. Finito!

In fact, his gift was the first one the whole family went to relax and enjoyed themselves. It was from there Charles went to Japan to rescue Jasmine. So, why is Clare now acting dumb about hearing of Isaac for the first time. This writer should start writing maturely. We can’t be wasting our dollars

This writer needs to realize that those reading this book are not at kindergarten level. An elementary student of this time and age can easily see all these flaws. Isaac Cameron was part of those that came to visit and gave them New Year gifts.

    As soon as Charlie said that he wanted to head to the airport, Isaac subconsciously asked, “Young Master, you want to go now?”Charlie blurted out, “What else are we waiting for if I am not going to set off now? I estimate that the plane has already taken off. It will arrive at the Aurous Airport in more than twenty minutes. If the helicopter is a little slower, the Concorde might even arrive before us.”At this time, Isaac finally came to his senses as he smiled awkwardly and said, “Yes, yes, that’s right. I forgot that the Concorde is extremely fast. Please wait a moment. I will arrange for the helicopter to prepare for takeoff, then.”After he was done speaking, Isaac picked up the walkie-talkie on the table before he blurted out, “The helicopter crew should prepare and get ready immediately. We will be taking off to head to the Aurous Airport in five minutes!”Very soon, Charlie could hear the sound of the helicopter engine starting coming from the rooftop.Isaac hurriedly sai

    A few minutes later, the helicopter that Charlie was in arrived at the Aurous Airport.The Concorde was parked at the end of the airport runway.The pilot spoke up at this time as he said, “Young Master, Chairman Cameron, the people from the airport gave us feedback saying that the Concorde is already prepared to take off. We can land directly next to the Concorde before boarding and taking off immediately!”“Okay!” Charlie nodded. He became more aware of the reason behind the success of many big and influential families, and a large part of it was because of the support and guarantee behind the success.If ordinary people wanted to go to Syria according to the conventional route, it would take them at least twenty-four hours from the moment they boarded the plane.However, with such a complete support system, the time taken to arrive in Syria could be reduced to nearly six hours.The eighteen-hour difference might not seem like a big deal during any ordinary time, and it would b

    Yolden would never have dreamt that Charlie was already prepared to head to Syria!His original intention in calling Charlie was not to ask for his help either. This was because he felt that Charlie would not be able to help him in any way either. After all, his daughter was currently in Syria, which was six to seven thousand kilometers away from him, and she was also in the hands of the opposition force who were heavily armed with military equipment.Under this kind of situation, even the Syrian government would not be able to help in any way. So, he never would have thought that Charlie would be able to help him.The reason why Yolden was making this call to Charlie was simply to give him an update about the latest situation. So, when he heard Charlie saying that he was already prepared to head to Syria, he was shocked and completely at a loss for words.After a short while, he subconsciously asked, “Charlie, you… how are you going to get to Syria? No civil aviation is connecte

    Yolden did not know of Charlie’s plan.When he heard that Charlie was planning to use money to solve the problem, he was a little relieved.He had originally hoped that the United States Embassy would be willing to pay for the ransom. However, the United States Embassy seemed to have a very firm and determined attitude, and they did not give the opposition force room for any negotiations at all.Now that Charlie was willing to pay the ransom in their place, Yolden felt that as long as the opposition force’s core demands were met, they would naturally honor their promise.So, he was very grateful as he said to Charlie, “Charlie, I will have to leave everything to you, then!”Charlie smiled slightly as he said, “Uncle Hart, you don’t have to worry. The plane is about to takeoff, so I will not continue talking to you anymore.”Yolden quickly replied, “Okay, okay. I will wait for your safe return, then!”After hanging up the phone, Charlie was already seated in the Concorde. Both Ch

    “How would I rescue them and bring them out safely?”When Charlie heard Isaac’s question, Charlie smiled bitterly before he replied frankly, “To be honest, I do not know how I am going to rescue them or bring them out safely either.”Isaac asked nervously, “Then, how confident are you this time?”Charlie said seriously, “I have never been to Syria, and I do not know anything about the strength and defense of the Syrian opposition force. However, judging from the situation that you have just mentioned, the information seems to prove that the other party is still very strong and powerful. Even if I am a little capable, it would be impossible for me to take on thousands of soldiers who are armed with live ammunition. So, I can only find a way to sneak in quietly.”As he spoke, Charlie sighed slightly as he said, “If I am lucky, I might be able to sneak in, but if I am not that lucky, I might not even be able to get in at all.”Isaac was very worried as he said, “Young Master, you are

    Charlie nodded. “Alright, then. Ask them to arrange for a skydiving instructor to board the plane with me so that he can teach me how to release the parachute and control the direction along the way!”***After flying for more than four hours, Charlie’s Concorde finally landed at the Beirut Airport, in the capital of Lebanon.It was the afternoon in Beirut, and the temperature had already reached about 30 degrees Celsius. The sky was a little hazy, and the air was a little damp. It seemed as though a heavy rain had not fallen even after being held back for a long time.After Charlie’s plane had landed, the plane taxied directly into a huge hangar. At this time, there was also a transport plane with four propeller engines parked in the hangar. A group of crew members was surrounding the plane to conduct a detailed inspection.After the plane had stopped, the ladder was docked. The crew opened the door, and both Charlie and Isaac walked out of the cabin together.At this time, th

    After Charlie had boarded the plane, Gary pointed at a foreigner who was checking the parachute bag and said, “Young Master, this is Vladislav from Russia. He was a paratrooper instructor, and he has twenty years of professional experience in skydiving from a high altitude. He is extremely rich in experience.”The Russian man who was referred to as Vladislav stood up before he saluted Charlie as he spoke up in non-fluent Oskian dialect, “Hello, Mr. Wade! I will be temporarily acting as your skydiving instructor. If you are not confident, I can jump together with you when the time comes.”Charlie nodded before he asked, “If I were to jump on my own, what should I be paying attention to?”Vladislav explained, “When we are approaching the destination, I will choose the most suitable skydiving location based on the altitude, airflow, and wind speed around the destination. If you decide to skydive on your own, you will have to be very decisive and jump as soon as I ask you to jump when i

    “This…” Gary hurriedly looked at Vladislav.Vladislav was placed in a tough spot, and he replied embarrassedly, “Mr. Wade, if your landing point is too close to them, I am afraid that it will be very likely for them to spot you in advance before you even have the opportunity to land. So, this is also for your own safety.”Charlie replied indifferently, “It’s okay. I have a way to prevent them from discovering me.”At this time, Gary was helpless, and he had no choice but to take out an engineering plastic box from under the seat. Upon opening it, there were two black pistols, a pile of bullets, a stainless steel tactical dagger, and also several grenades in it. Then, he told Charlie, “Young Master, you should take all these weapons and equipment with you in case you need it.”Charlie shook his head and said, “I do not know how to use a pistol.”Gary exclaimed, “You do not know how to use a pistol?! Then… then how are you going to defend yourself?!”Charlie smiled as he said, “If

    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

    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

    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 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.
