Chapter 3808

Author: Lord Leaf
Kelly looked at Kathleen in surprise. She did not expect that this young lady from the Fox family would be so perceptive and that she would find the key point almost immediately.

So, she smiled slightly, nodded, and said, “In fact, she had very, very high fame in the American high society thirty years ago. There are still many people who talk about her with respect even now.”

When Kathleen heard this, she was even more curious, and she asked, “If that’s true, I might have heard of her before. What’s her name? Is it convenient for you to tell me?”

Kelly thought for a moment and then laughed slightly as she said, “She has already left this world for many years now. So, it wouldn’t be inconvenient.”

As Kelly spoke, she put her smile away, and she had a nostalgic expression that was filled with admiration and a little sadness as she said, “Her name is Ashley Acker. She was called Silicon Valley’s Queen of Investment thirty years ago. I don’t know if you’ve heard of her before, but it w

    Kelly did not expect that Kathleen, who was so young, would actually have such a deep impression of Ashley as well.Moreover, looking at her appearance, it seemed as though she really admired Ashley.This made her feel a sense of relief, and she could not help but sigh, “It’s great that so many people still remember her even after so many years have passed...”Kathleen nodded and hurriedly questioned her, “Kelly, how did you get to know Ashley Acker?”Kelly had a nostalgic expression as she said, “When I first entered the design circle, it did not go well for me. Although I did high-end private house designs, many high-end customers were still very disdainful of me as a fledgling designer. Moreover, many women in many jobs were being discriminated in the American society during that era, and the design industry was naturally no exception...”As Kelly spoke of this, she sighed slightly and said with immense gratitude, “I was frugal, and I took out five thousand US dollars to open m

    By the time Claire had returned home and had just sat on the sofa, she was already tired, and her whole body was sore.When Charlie saw the appearance of several blisters on her feet after she had taken off her socks, he could not help but feel a little distressed as he said, “Honey, what have you been doing all day? Why do you have so many blisters?”Claire smiled shyly and said, “I was silly today and forgot to wear sneakers. I also took them to several scenic spots and walked more than twenty thousand steps...”Having said that, she smirked and said, “It’s alright. It will certainly be much better after I change into sneakers tomorrow!”Charlie blurted out, “Your feet are already like this and you’re still going shopping tomorrow?!”Claire nodded and said seriously, “Of course I’m going! Honey, you don’t know this but I can really learn a lot of things just by following Miss Jane and Madam Wearstler. I feel that I’m not from the same world as them, and I have never heard of man

    When Charlie heard his mother’s name actually coming out of his wife, Claire’s mouth, he was instantly shocked, and he stood frozen in place as if someone had cast a spell on his body.At this moment, Charlie’s consciousness also seemed to have lost contact with his body, and he was also feeling extremely shocked. He also lost control of his emotions as he questioned her with much urgency, “What did they say to you?!”When Claire saw Charlie getting so agitated, she asked in astonishment, “Honey, why are you getting so agitated? Could it be that you’ve heard of Ashley Acker before?”Claire’s question caused Charlie to feel a lump in his throat.In the past, Claire had also asked Charlie about his parents’ situation several times. Charlie could not bear to lie about his parents’ death and so, he had told Claire truthfully that his parents had died in a car accident when he was eight years old. However, although Charlie could not bear to lie about this matter, he also had his res

    After that, he suspected that these were inextricably linked to the Rothschild family, but he still had not found any valuable clues.Therefore, what Claire was saying today had immediately given Charlie great hope. He felt that if he could find a way to get Kathleen’s grandfather to talk, there would be a real chance and possibility of him uncovering the truth behind this matter!As he thought of this, he decided in his heart immediately. When Jordan came to Aurous Hill, he would have to force him to speak up no matter what it was! He would have to get Jordan to tell him all of the inside stories and everything that he knew even if he had to take his consciousness away and give him strong psychological hints!At the same time, Charlie’s expectations for the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill had already surpassed everything at this moment!As for Kathleen, she could continue putting on a show and play games if she wanted to. Charlie did not care about what she wanted to do anymor

    The grade of Houlmount cars was certainly not as good as Rolls Royce.However, in Charlie’s eyes, the Houlmount was the most nationally representative car brand in Oskia, and there was no other.Therefore, it was also the best option that he had in mind.Isaac obeyed Charlie’s words and so, he spoke up and said immediately, “Okay, Young Master. I’ll coordinate the resources and make sure that all the vehicles are in place within the next two days.”Charlie nodded and instructed, “Don’t forget to raise the room prices. The price of the rooms at Shangri-La should be at least a hundred times more during the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill. Moreover, you should not give them a discount of even a single cent.”“Okay,” Isaac smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Young Master. I’ve already made all the arrangements for this. The listed price of the hotel rooms this time will not only be raised more than a hundred times, but there will also be an additional 20% service charge, 20% security fee

    Moreover, this price was really a black-market price that was extremely high, and the profit margin was also as high as 99.99%...At this time, Charlie was very serious as he said, “Mr. Cameron, look. This group of people usually wear LV and carry Hermes, and they think that they are so amazing because of that. A piece of their clothing printed with the LV logo would cost tens of thousands of dollars, and the price of a Hermes bag is also extremely expensive and out of the world. Since all of them have so much pride and ego, my Rejuvenating Pill clothing would be the best luxury good. How can Hermes compare to a set of sportswear that costs 1.5 million dollars?”Isaac instantly perspired out of embarrassment. He knew that this young master of his was sometimes very black-hearted, but he did not expect him to be so black-hearted...If word about this were to get out to the public, people would say that Shangri-La was shameless. However, he also knew Charlie’s style of action and

    When Sherry heard Kathleen’s words, she immediately asked nervously, “Young Lady, wouldn’t you be exposing your identity if you were to bring Lord Fox to have dinner together with Charlie Wade?”“That will not necessarily be the case.” Kathleen said, “I plan to invite Claire first, and then I will let Claire help me invite Charlie Wade. After that, I will bring Grandpa there directly and introduce them at the dinner table.”Sherry could not help but ask, “Then, how are you going to introduce your relationship with Lord Fox to Charlie Wade?”Kathleen said, “It’s simple. I will simply say that Grandpa is my distant grandfather. After all, the Jane family is originally closely related to the Fox family. So, there will be no loopholes in terms of its reasonableness.”Sherry was very puzzled as she asked, “Young Lady, I don’t quite understand. Why would you want to arrange for a meeting between Lord Fox and Charlie Wade? This matter is originally two sets of plans, and the two sets of p

    Charlie nodded gently and asked, “Miss Jane, you should have already found a place to stay, right?”Kathleen nodded and said, “Yes. I’ll be staying at Aurous International Hotel.”Charlie smiled and said, “That’s good.”After saying that, Charlie looked at the time and said, “I still have something to do, so I will not hold you up any longer, Miss Jane.”Kathleen said with great understanding, “Mr. Wade, please go ahead and get busy if you have things to do.”Having said that, Kathleen then suddenly added, “Mr. Wade, I would like to invite you and Claire to have dinner together with me if you have time some other day. After all, we have already known each other for many days now, and I have not thanked you properly for the help that you and Claire have given me.”When Charlie heard this, he immediately deduced that there had to be something fishy about Kathleen’s intention.So, he did not reject her directly. Instead, he nodded and smiled as he said, “Sure, but I might be busy o

    However, Jimmy realized something important even as he sighed in relief. "Wait, Mr. Wade… I know I should settle things in the family Stateside, but won't I be arrested upon arrival?""That's Julien's department," Charlie chuckled and turned toward the man. "Tell your butler not to send the evidence to the feds. If it has reached them already, ask to have it back and tell the feds they saw nothing."Julien promptly nodded. "I'll text him right now. You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Wade."Jimmy remained worried. "But sir, I think Nate's not going to let this slide. The man is cunning—he deliberately dug a pit so we'd fall into it, and he gathered all the dirt he could on us to be used as leverage when necessary."Charlie shook his head. "That's no big deal. Julien can make sure that you're fine even if the feds get the evidence."Julien nodded nearby. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. The decision remains in your hands, either way. Just say the word, and it's 25 to life… otherwise, not e

    The fact that Jimmy was a partner in Ares LLP already meant he had skill, while Matilda had herself been retired for years and definitely had lost her touch a little. So, having someone like Jimmy who had stayed on the frontlines all this while would definitely be no issue.And in turn, it was a good thing for Jimmy as it was better than the kennels either way.Charlie then asked Jimmy pointedly, "You say you're interested, but are you sincere about it?"Jimmy nodded without hesitation. "Yes, absolutely!""No regrets? We're talking about ten years here.""None, absolutely none!""Do you know what to say if anyone asks?""Yes, of course! I chose to further my career here in Oskia, and it was absolutely voluntary! That's what I'd say even if my family asked!"Charlie nodded. "Good. Then, you will have two weeks. Go home and set your affairs in order and report in for work afterward.""No problem!" Jimmy nodded repeatedly, actually surprised and grateful that Charlie would let hi

    And yet, Julien was suddenly clapping his hands, and exclaiming excitedly, "Yes, right! We should get his wife and son over too for a happy reunion!"He then paused and quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no! I mean, they should each be caged with one empty cage separating each of their cages. They can see each other and talk, but there will be no touching. How dare he flex on me—I gotta teach him a lesson to remember!"Jimmy dropped limply on his rump, and Matilda beckoned for Paul to help him up while turning toward Julien as she pursed her lips. "Please, Mr. Rothschild… Even if you don't accept his apology, don't bring his family into this. It's against Oskian tradition—you'd insult your family's name!"Julien shrugged, not hesitating to retort, "What do your traditions have to do with me? If I mean to hurt him, forget his family—I'll drag his dogs over too!"Seeing that Julien was so furious, Charlie decided to stop him, or he might actually go through with it."That's enough, J

    Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h

    Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des

    As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside

    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

    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
