Charlie sighed.He said grimly, “My parents passed away, but I survived.”Then, he asked Jordan, “Do you know anything about the reasons why my parents passed away?”Jordan shook his head. “Mr. Wade, the news of your mother’s death in Oskia was a great shock to the United States’ high society. Many claimed that she was murdered, but no one knew who the perpetrator was. It’s said that the Acker family has also been investigating her death, but to no avail. Outsiders like us wouldn’t know the reasons.”Kathleen also added, “Mr. Wade. After your mother’s passing, her peers at Stanford and several Silicon Valley bigwigs who have become top entrepreneurs through her investment have been trying everything to uncover the truth behind her death. Until today, they haven’t found any clear clues yet.”Charlie was disappointed to hear that. At first, he thought his parents were murdered by the Schulz family. When he finally found the Schulz family, however, he realized they weren’t capable of

Chandler’s words gave Jordan a huge reality check. Truly, Jordan couldn’t refute any of Chandle’s arguments. Chandler wanted to give his old friend a wake-up call once and for all, so he continued, “Jordan, you have to understand. Your son didn’t just seize your power willy-nilly. He even instigated everyone on the board of directors to overthrow you. Your obsession with the Rejuvenating Pill had gone overboard. You’ve even prepared two hundred billion US dollars just to win the auction! That must have alarmed your children, your board, and all the other shareholders.”“In other words, you’re no different than an old king who didn’t hesitate to exchange the power of his country in pursuit of longevity. Your descendants and followers couldn’t stand it anymore, so they lost their trust in you and stopped supporting you. They even regarded you as a failed king and a tyrant. They simply wanted to overthrow you so that everything will be normal again.”“You should think about it careful
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3943
Charlie’s words led Jordan to an epiphany. He realized he had been overly optimistic about his current predicament.His son wanted to see him dead overseas. His son thought that the faster he died, the better. What would happen if he defied his son’s expectations and continued to live on? After all, the Healing Pill guaranteed that he wouldn’t be dying anytime soon.Thought made Jordan shudder in fear. Kathleen began to panic as well. She hurriedly asked Charlie, “Mr. Wade, what should Grandpa do now…?”Charlie replied indifferently, “At a time like this, you shouldn’t think of trying to return to your peak. First, you must accept your failures and find a way to survive.”Chandler, too, grew slightly worried. “Mr. Wade, both of them don't have any support in Aurous Hill. They have Sir Jarvis with them, but if Jordan’s son discovers that Jordan is still alive, Jordan won’t be able to live in peace. When that happens, I fear that man might lose his patience and send someone after

Charlie’s revelation dumbfounded Kathleen and Jordan. He said it so easily, but it hit them like a bolt out of the blue.They had never expected the rumors to be so vastly different from reality. Word had it that the Wade family had to give away half their assets to the Ten Thousand Armies in order to be freed from Porter, the leader of Ten Thousand Armies. The truth turned out to be the complete opposite.The Wade family never ceded half their assets to Ten Thousand Armies. Instead, Charlie had taken the whole Ten Thousand Armies under his command. The Ten Thousand Armies, which was made of thousands of powerful mercenaries! A mercenary group couldn’t be compared to the American army. However, a wealthy family like the Fox family was incomparable in terms of scale and combat strength,Kathleen could barely process the newfound information. On the contrary, Jordan came to a sudden realization. He blurted out, “No wonder… That explains why Master Yant found it odd when we entered

Despite Charlie’s nonchalant words, Kathleen’s tears wouldn’t stop no matter how much she tried. She kept nodding as she sobbed, “Thank you, Mr. Wade… Thank you truly!”Charlie gave her a small smile before turning to Jordan again. “Lord Fox, please cooperate with us to make this work.”A few minutes later, several security personnel carried Jordan on a stretcher and rushed out of the VIP room in a flurry of panic. They hurried out of the hall with great fanfare while everyone watched in shock.The security personnel shouted as he ran, “Please give way! The patient is in a critical condition! We have to send him to the hospital at once!”Kathleen followed them, running and crying unstoppable tears.Everyone at the auction watched with widened eyes as they carried Jordan away. They burst into loud murmurs, speculating about the sudden incident. None of them expected Jordan to suddenly faint and force the auction to a pause. Issac quickly arranged a car to carry Jordan to the hosp

To Charlie, there was no need for him to expose his identity to the Acker family, particularly when he was still unsure if they were friend or foe.As for who in that family needed the Rejuvenating Pill, he wasn’t bothered to look into it for the time being.Chandler was in full agreement with Charlie’s conjecture.Since the Acker family could afford to send Christian to the auction to check the truth, it proved that their need for the Rejuvenating Pill was not so urgent. Otherwise, the one who needed it would have come over in person, just like Jordan did. Chandler nodded to Charlie and said with a smile, “Very well, Mr. Wade. I’ll be making my leave first.”Charlie said, “You may return and wait. I need to make some arrangements before resuming the auction.”At last, Chandler left the VIP room.Charlie waited until Chandler was gone before giving the person in charge of Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group a call. Once the call connected, he asked Autumn, “Autumn, are there any sh

“Understood, Mr. Wade.” Rosalie said immediately. “I’ll get to it right away.”…Charlie made all the necessary arrangements between returning to the control room.From the control room, he could see everyone in the auction hall was in complete silence. Everyone was patiently waiting for the auction to resume again. Bernard was particularly eager.His experience tonight was no different than riding a roller coaster. It finally reached its peak when Jordan announced his forfeit. But as time ticked away, Bernard’s anxiety reared its ugly head once more. He started to worry if anything would change again.At last, Jasmine finally received Charlie’s order and made an announcement on the microphone.“Ladies and gentlemen! Number 35 has been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment due to a sudden illness. Since he has cancelled his purchase, Number 16 will be on the waiting list for a chance to purchase the last Rejuvenating Pill.”Bernard was so excited to hear, he clenched his
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3948
Bernard grew distressed at Jasmine’s words. His face turned ugly, for he knew he was targeted. Worst of all, the people around him cheered for his misfortune.This was the moment he finally learnt his lesson. His customers weren’t the only ones disgusted by him. Even the other billionaires hated him.He finally realized the evil of a forced bundle sale. The deal targeted those who liked a certain item. The seller knew of the targeted market’s obsession with the product, so they used an alternative way to make the buyer pay more for the goods.If the buyer refused, the seller would claim that it was their sales policy. For those who wanted the goods, they must agree and pay. If they refuse, they could choose not to buy and leave.Bernard’s obsession with the Rejuvenating Pill was not just because he liked it. It was related to his health and lifespan.With his body’s current state, he would most likely end up dying if his lung cancer were to recur. Besides, the anti-cancer treatm

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6609
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
