Chapter 3752

Penulis: Lord Leaf
She entered the country earlier than expected. It was before he told Liam Weaver to bring the Apothecary Restoration Pill to the United States, and before the Vintage Deluxe announced the news about the auction event for the Rejuvenating Pill.

In this way, Charlie could completely rule out the third possibility. She was not here for the Apothecary Restoration Pill. When she crossed the borders and landed in Oskia, the pill was not even out yet.

Thus, Charlie could rule out the Rejuvenating Pill as her motive.

However, he did not dismiss the possibility completely for one reason. Before they announced the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill, the Rejuvenating Pill was already out.

Lord Moore, Travis Lane, Albert Rhodes, Chandler Lennard, Yule Golding, and the old queen from the Nordic countries had taken the Rejuvenating Pill before.

Kylie might have heard about the Rejuvenating Pill before the auction announcement!

Therefore, Charlie narrowed down his guesses of Kylie’s real motive

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6629

    When it came to investment, Jimmy was willing to invest with anything but money.If he had to choose between making a million without investment or making two million by investing a hundred thousand, he would definitely choose the former.That was why it suited his character to want money instead in this deal.Knowing that, Nate didn't have any qualms. Who cared if Jimmy wanted money or anything else? As long as he signed the 10-year contract without any chance for reneging, he wouldn't be leaving Ares LLC.Moreover, since Jimmy had Julien's backing now, Nate had nothing to worry about just by keeping him in Ares LLC. If Julien invoked the termination clause, that would be his loss when the company's revenue kept improving every day, and he couldn't blame Nate for it.Hence, he said cheerfully, "No problem, Jimmy! If you insist on cash, let's go with that. In addition to the ten-year contract, I will pay you an additional ten million to buy back your shares.""There's also my s

    Nate still wasn't aware that Jimmy had other plans.While he was really reluctant to part with the 200 thousand shares, he had no choice but to restrain himself as he remembered that Jimmy now had the Rothschilds' backing."Very well, 200 grand shares, it is!" He exclaimed. "I dare say the 120 million dollar split per year is quite reliable since that commission will increase along with our firm's growth. You have a really bright future ahead if you stay in our firm, Jimmy!"Even though Nate's decision didn't come lightly, Jimmy was left frowning slightly.After doing some simple math, he came up with the conclusion that right now, he needed cash and not shares.Shares were a gamble, as one would be betting on whether the company would improve in the future or not.If the company did grow like clockwork, shares worth a million this year would be worth tens of millions in the next.If the company were on the decline, the shares might be worth less than a hundred thousand by the n

    In other words, if Jimmy wanted more money for the next ten years, he needed to increase the income he received from Ares LLC. The more, the better.That was why he told Nate he was willing to work at Ares LLC for the next ten years. He could never escape the fate of working in Oskia, but he was still technically working for the law firm and drawing their salary, so he decided to use that as his betting chip in this negotiation.After his trip to Oskia, he had come to understand that society was just a giant food chain. If the likes of Julien Rothchild were food to someone like Charlie Wade, frivolous figures like Jimmy himself would be positioned further beneath.But even though he was food for Charlie, he would still prey on Nate.On the other hand, Nate was left as concerned as he was delighted.Naturally, he was delighted that keeping Jimmy was no issue—the man was even onboard for a ten-year contract extension, and he wouldn't offend Julien Rothschild on top of that.However

    Pausing, Nate then added, "A lawyer always needs five to ten years to accumulate experience. If they do well, we will promote them and increase their salary or induct them as a partner if they're outstanding."You know how things work for partners in law firms—shares and increments. A partner is always paid better and allocated shares that will be redeemable in five to ten years, and they will eventually reach executive levels. All in all, the system is aimed at keeping partners in the firm to bring us further value."Jimmy held out a hand, stopping him. "That's common knowledge. What I mainly want to know is how you set them up and what dirt you have on them.""Oh, well…" Nate paused awkwardly, but he eventually sighed and said, "Once a partner has been promoted, we need two-fold insurance. After all, if they are highly skilled, they would eventually grow their own clientele and develop an appetite, which in turn means they would be demanding more shares or demanding a seat on the

    The board members of Ares LLC had all been waiting in the conference room, all of them aware that Jimmy was now friends with the Rothschilds and therefore afraid to appear insulting. Whether they resided in New York or elsewhere, they traveled over early on and waited.It was as if they were just some third-rate noble family in a feudal kingdom—they would never have a chance to even meet the royal family until a daughter was taken in as a consort. With one of theirs finally skyrocketing in importance, the rest of the family was hoping the daughter could rise all the way and become queen, bringing riches and prestige to the rest of them.Naturally, Nate planned to do the same.Placating Jimmy was one thing, but it was not particularly important—what mattered was how to get him to contribute further for Ares LLC after the fact.As Nate and Jimmy entered the room to meet the board members, it thundered with applause as everyone's eyes glowed as they watched Jimmy.The meaning was c

    "Alright!" Nate grinned. "My car's right outside. Let's go!"They left the airport and got in Nate's Bentley, and Nate drove him straight to the Ares LLC Manhattan office.Along the way, Nate sighed remorsefully. "Look, Jimmy—I really regret what I did yesterday. We've been working alongside each other for years, and I truly approve of you. If the Rothschild's butler hadn't pressured me, I wouldn't even think of abandoning you. I hope you understand."Jimmy didn't answer and instead asked, "You said over the phone that you keep dirt on every partner. What dirt, specifically?"Nate rubbed his nose in slight embarrassment. "More or less the same stuff as you did. We keep an eye out for easy, high-profile jobs, and then get a proxy who would convince the client to get the partner to work the case in private. It would spare the client some fees, and they'd be keen since it's easy. "Most partners wouldn't be able to turn down such an offer. So, when they work on the case, I ask those

    Hence, after twelve hours, Jimmy Smith was still livid as his flight landed at Kennedy Airport while Nate Ares waited eagerly to receive him. Jimmy never slept throughout his journey as he was contemplating endlessly on how he could destroy his boss.Ares LLC's yearly net profit was around five hundred million dollars, and being the founder and major shareholder, Nate Ellis made at least 150 million per year.As for the top ten partners, Jimmy calculated that their yearly salary, bonuses, and commissions would also range around a hundred million altogether. Even though they were paid 20% out of the firm's profits, the value they brought to the firm had to be 80%, if not higher.Still, now that Jimmy had an understanding with Julien, he would be banking on the man's influence to poach those ten partners from the firm. Once they were out of Ares LLC, the firm's yearly profits would at least go down by half.Worst of all, Ares LLC would still be paying their salaries even if they ce

    Jimmy was only left with seething hatred toward Nate.So, hearing that Nate would pick him up at the airport, he quickly replied, "Sure—I have things to discuss with you too, chief. I'll send you my flight details later.""Of course, of course," Nate replied eagerly. "Send it to me whenever. I'll see you soon!"After Jimmy hung up and returned Julien's phone, Nate was left pacing around in his room, muttering to himself, "Shit. This is bad… Jimmy's definitely not going to let this rest…."Surprised, his wife asked, "What's going on here? Didn't you just fire Jimmy? Why are you letting him on board and picking him up at the airport on top of that?""Oh, don't even start," Nate sighed grumpily. "Julien Rothschild, the heir apparent of the Rothschild family, just called me personally to say that he had a mere misunderstanding with Jimmy… Honestly, what the hell is with that?! "I thought I was doing them a favor, sending the dirt I had on Jimmy to the feds so that he'd go to prison.

    Julien then remembered with a start. "I'll have my butler call him right now… Wait, no. I'll do it myself."After getting Nate's number from his butler, he then had his butler call Nate first to inform the latter that he would soon be calling personally.Just hearing from the butler that the Rothschilds' heir apparent would soon call left Nate endlessly thrilled.He was under the impression that Julien approved of how he had dealt with Jimmy and was calling personally to commend him. As such, he waited excitedly by his phone for Julien's call.And when Julien called his number, he answered right away, greeting him politely, "Hello! This is Nate Ellis!""Uh-huh," Julien replied quietly. "Julien Rothschild.""Yes, greetings, Mr. Rothschild!" Nate quickly said. "It's my honor to receive your personal call… how may I be of service?""I just called to inform you that you must never harass Jimmy Smith from now on," Julien replied quietly."Huh?" Nate was left gaping. "But your butl
