The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3610
Porter had already arranged for Ten Thousand Armies’ financial staff to complete the money transfer immediately, and Sayid had personally started preparing for the release of the men, expecting to transport all fifteen thousand men to Damascus as early as in the evening.Porter planned to let the fifteen thousand soldiers from Ten Thousand take a week's vacation first. So, they would be allowed to return to their respective countries of permanent residence from Damascus by plane to take a good rest before he would then arrange their next tasks after a week.Charlie did not have any opinion on his arrangements and so, he allowed Porter to make his own full arrangements.Since then, all the important issues in the Middle East had been satisfactorily resolved. As for how high Porter could lead Ten Thousand Armies, the future would mainly depend on himself.***Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, Liam arrived in Washington with twenty boxes of the Apothecary Restoration Pills.

Because he realized that the other party might have truly encountered a difficult matter of great magnitude, Liam was not angry at all about the other party’s tardiness. On the contrary, he nodded in understanding and said politely, “It’s okay, Mr. Smith. I didn’t have anything else to do, so there’s no rush.”“Thank you!” Jameson thanked him and smiled politely before sitting down in front of Liam.After the both of them had casually ordered some dishes, Jameson asked Liam, “Mr. Weaver, you’ve come so far from Oskia. Is there something important?” Liam smiled and said, “Mr. Smith, you should have heard of The Apothecary Pharmaceutical, right?” “I've heard of it.” Smith nodded and said, “You have a drug under review by our FDA, right?”“Yes.” Liam said, “The review cycle has passed for quite a long time, but it has not entered the next stage yet. So, I would like to inquire if there is any way to speed up the process?” Smith said with some difficulty, “The FDA is very

As Smith spoke of this, he then added, “This is just like a kind of hemorrhoid suppository that is very popular in Oskia. Some patients in the United States bought it through online shopping as well as through some black-market channels. The patients feel good after using it, and they have been hoping that this medication will pass the FDA’s review, but we have not been able to approve its application. Do you know why?”Liam was confused, so he asked, “Why exactly?” Smith said, “Because, in our opinion, that kind of hemorrhoid suppositories is just the use of some cooling analgesic ingredients. This kind of ingredient can let patients relieve their pain, but that’s as far as it goes. In our opinion, these ingredients cannot really treat the illness, but will also probably cover up the disease, thus delaying the scientific treatment for patients. So, we have also issued a warning some time ago reminding patients using this drug to pay attention to screening and not to ignore the core

As Smith spoke of this, he then suddenly said, “Besides that, there are many things that we have in Western medicine that you don’t have in Eastern medicine! For instance, psychological and mental diseases, viral diseases, immune system diseases such as AIDs, and auto-endocrine system diseases such as hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism...”At this point, Smith shook his head and laughed as he said, “There are too many similar examples! I will not list them one by one, but in short, I think that it would not be a loss for our people if we refuse to sell and introduce your medicine into our market because we have better options at home!”Liam’s pride and self-esteem were deeply stung because of Smith’s deep pride. He was well aware of Smith’s attitude which appeared to be respectful to the other party on the surface, but in reality, Smith was full of contempt and disdain for Eastern medicine. When Liam saw that Smith was indiscriminately belittling Eastern medicine, he could no

“Otherwise, I’ll leave now!”“I will not return a single penny of your thirty thousand US dollars to you either!”Liam did not expect that there was such a thing in the other party's family, and for a moment, he also felt a little empathy.So, he said apologetically, “Mr. Smith, I’m very sorry to hear such a thing. Can I take the liberty to ask how is your son's condition now?” When Smith heard this question, all of the aggression that he had been feeling just now instantly disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a heartfelt feeling of despair and helplessness.He let out a long sigh and muttered, “Half a month ago, he just received four hundred and seventy thousand US dollars worth of T-cell immunotherapy from Novartis Pharmaceuticals, but with little success...”“Now, his tumor has recurred, and it has spread throughout his body...”“Just three days ago, the largest tumor in his brain compressed his optic nerve and so, he is currently blind...”“The reason why I was late
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3615
After saying that, Liam grabbed his suitcase and strode out of the restaurant.At this time, Smith felt as if he had been humiliated.At that moment when he was still in a daze, Liam had already left the restaurant. He looked down at the box of Apothecary Restoration Pill on the table, and he felt so angry in his heart that he threw the box of pills into the garbage as he became consumed by his rage and said, “What kind of f*cking restoration pills are these?! It’s all f*cking bullsh*t! I've spent millions of dollars trying out all kinds of cutting-edge technology to cure my son! Even if the president had cancer, he would never get even more treatment than my son! He cannot even be cured after all these efforts, so how can he be cured by this kind of b*llsh*t Oskian medicine?!” At this point, the public relations person who had been hiding in the back and hadn't come out to disturb the two men hurriedly came out and asked after him, “Mr. Smith, what happened? Is Mr. Weaver
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3616
However, after taking a few steps, he suddenly thought of the words that Liam had left behind before leaving. Hence, Smith also questioned himself. ‘What that Oskian man said seems to be right. Why would he have bothered to fly halfway across the world and spend fifty thousand US dollars to come and see me just to tell me a bunch of nonsense?’After hesitating for a moment, he hurriedly turned back around. When he saw that the public relations officer was about to take the trash can away, he hurriedly blurted out, “Don’t move! Put that trash can down!”The public relations officer was surprised and asked, “Mr. Smith... You... What’s the matter with you?” Smith took a big step forward and snatched the trash can from the other man’s hand. He then took the box of Apothecary Restoration Pills out from it, turned around, and left the restaurant with the box of medicine in his hand. At this time, Liam was no longer anywhere to be seen outside the restaurant. Just a minute ago, Li

When cancer reached the end stage, any part of the patient's body may be in danger at any time, and it would subsequently be life-threatening. This was because the entire body system was like an ever-higher stack of building blocks that were already on the verge of collapse and could come crashing down at any moment. What's more, Smith's son was only twelve years old, and his body had long been stretched to the breaking point throughout his years of fighting cancer. In addition, the tumor in his brain was getting bigger, and after his vision and hearing were affected, his emotions were so intense that the doctors had had to give him a sedative. All of these were factors that were speeding up his demise. Smith looked at his son in the hospital bed through the window, and he felt extremely desperate at this moment. He knew that he had lost even after working hard for so many years. Just then, a doctor came up to him and said with a little respect and sympathy,

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
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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6602
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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6601
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

Pausing, Charlie then said, "I'll call Steve to drop by later too. I'm sure folks in Aurous Hill won't know him, but your potential troublemaker might.""I-Is that really fine?" Yolden blurted."What's not fine about it?" Charlie chuckled. "He has been treated like a tool ever since he came to Aurous Hill, and now that he has a chance to strut about, he wouldn't ask for more."Yolden appeared slightly relieved at that, and Charlie asked, "By the way, where's Paul, Matilda, and Autumn?""Getting their makeup done," Yolden replied. "Paul's my best man while Autumn's the maid of honor.""Good," Charlie nodded with a grin. "Don't worry—the wedding's going to be a success."As they spoke, Matilda stepped out of the dressing room in a stark-white wedding dress, flanked by Autumn and Paul.Seeing Charlie, Autumn nodded politely, "Good morning, Mr. Wade."As Charlie nodded in turn, Paul started, "G-Good morning… Mr. Wade…"Seeing that he was nervous and tentative, Charlie knew that he
