Chapter 3960

Author: Lord Leaf
Charlie shook his head and said seriously, “I’m not saying that you were abrupt. I’m saying that there’s no need for you to compete with them because you’re a VIP. Regardless of whether you have more assets compared to them or otherwise, your position here with me is higher than all of them.”

When the old queen heard this, her inferiority complex eased a little.

Although she wasn’t strong enough, the fact that Charlie was showing her so much respect was already more than enough for her to stand with confidence.

Although she failed to win the bid for the Rejuvenating Pill at the auction tonight, she did feel a little more respectable because of her presence as a VIP.

She said respectfully, “Thank you, Mr. Wade, for thinking so highly of me. The Elliot family also owe all that we have today thanks to you.”

After saying that, she hurriedly brought up her granddaughter, Helena, and said seriously, “Mr. Wade, Helena often talks about you to me. She’s been missing you very much and is

    The three VIPs didn’t dare to hope that they’d be able to participate in the auction or get the Rejuvenating Pill as a gift from Charlie, Charlie thought otherwise. Since he invited them, how could he possibly let them make a trip here for nothing?He divided a Rejuvenating Pill into three parts. In his opinion, giving his grandfather half of the Rejuvenating Pill and a quarter of the pill to both Old Master Lennard and the old queen was a reasonable way of distribution. Among these three, his grandfather, Jeremiah, had not eaten the Rejuvenating Pill yet.Jeremiah wasn’t too old, so half of the Rejuvenating Pill would give him great improvement. Moreover, Charlie needed a backup plan. If he were to give his grandfather a whole Rejuvenating Pill, it’d definitely be very troublesome for him if the old man suddenly got ambitious and had the desire to regain control of the Wade family.If he gave Jeremiah half a pill and let Jeremiah experience the pill’s effects, Jeremiah would ha

    Jeremiah’s expression contorted into an annoyed sneer. “Previously, your maternal grandfather’s family was rather dissatisfied with the Wade family. When your mother married here, her natal family didn’t even bother to come. I’ve never met with any of your uncles before. But I did meet your second uncle, Kaeden Acker, in a summit in Sweden some years ago. I saw him from afar because he was on stage, and I happened to be off stage. I thought of getting close to him and paying him a visit, but he wasn’t willing to see me.”Charlie laughed. “It seems the Acker family has no respect for the Wade family at all.”Jeremiah laughed to himself. “He didn’t look up to me, true. At that time, he said that among everyone surnamed Wade, he’d only acknowledge you.”Jeremiah continued, “To think your eldest uncle came to participate in the auction. He even wanted to take the Rejuvenating Pill away. I wonder who he is planning to buy it for? Perhaps your maternal grandfather or grandmother?”“I’m n

    For ordinary people, getting the contact information of a top tycoon like Jeremiah would be an impossibly difficult task.But it was not so for Christian, who was able to inquire Jeremiah’s contact information with ease.Very soon, he obtained Jeremiah’s cell number. He didn’t hesitate to call Jeremiah immediately.Jeremiah was chatting with Charlie when his cell phone rang. He picked it up, glanced at it, and saw that it was an American number. He frowned. “Charlie, I’m going to answer a call.”Charlie nodded and made an inviting gesture for Jeremiah to do so.Jeremiah picked up the call. “Hello, may I know who this is?”Christian, who was on the other end of the line, greeted with a smile, “Hello, Uncle Wade!” Jeremiah was momentarily stunned, puzzled by the speaker’s words. It was an unfamiliar phone number, and as soon as the call was connected, the person referred to him as Uncle Wade. Could it be a child of an old friend of his? In his surprise, he came to realize tha

    This made him relax a lot and so, he said over the phone, “Uncle Wade, you’re right. Both of our families are relatives, but we haven’t had much contact with each other for so many years now. We should have more contact when we have the opportunity to do so in the future.”“Yes, yes, yes.” Jeremiah was also a witty old man and so, he naturally would not lose out to anyone when it came to putting on an act. So, he said very politely, “Christian, there must be a reason why you’re suddenly calling me on my cell phone. Since we are all family, you don’t have to be so shy, and you can just get to the point directly.”Christian smiled and said, “Uncle Wade, you’re really a very straightforward person! In that case, I will not be so formal with you.”After saying that, Christian then said again, “Uncle Wade, I heard that the Wade family also participated in the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill in Aurous Hill. I even heard that you were a VIP at the auction. Was there really such a thing?”

    When Jeremiah saw that Christian was unwilling to reveal the purpose of buying the medicine, he followed Charlie’s previous instructions, and he casually made a promise to Christian first before using the delaying tactic on him.Christian also knew very well that Jeremiah had to be hiding something from him and so, he spoke up and said, “Uncle Wade, the Acker family will definitely not mistreat you if you can help with this matter!” As Christian spoke, he said again, “I heard that the Wade family lost a lot of money to Ten Thousand Armies some time ago. If the Acker family helps, it would not take long for you to make up for the loss!”Christian thought that he knew the mentality of the rich and powerful who had suddenly plummeted in value very well. In fact, they were no different from gamblers. As soon as there was a great fluctuation in assets, their mentality would also change greatly. The Wade family had lost half of their assets all at once, and as the head of the Wade fami

    As Charlie spoke of this, he smiled faintly and said casually, “It doesn’t matter. Just let them be since they feel good about themselves.”Immediately after that, Charlie then said again, “By the way, Grandpa, I will be going to the United States in a couple of days, and I will not be back for a month or so. I will have to trouble you to take care of the Wade family’s affairs at that time.”Jeremiah asked curiously, “Charlie, why are you suddenly going to the United States? You’re not going to visit the Acker family, are you?”Charlie shook his head and smiled as he said, “Why would I? I’m accompanying Claire to attend a training.”Jeremiah nodded and said, “Okay. Don’t worry about the Wade family. As for your eldest uncle’s side, I wouldn’t rush to look for him, anyway. I definitely won’t go to see him either even if he wanted to find me.”“Okay.” Charlie stood up and said, “Grandpa, it’s getting late. You should rest early. I should also go home. When will you be going back to

    Charlie waved his hand and said, “Jasmine, we are in a collaborative relationship, and we can each take what we need, benefit from each other, and grow together through our collaboration. So, you don’t need to keep thanking me.”Jasmine nodded slightly in gratitude before she hurriedly said, “By the way, Master Wade, the combined revenue for the Rejuvenating Pill and the amulets this time is 149.23 billion US dollars.”“However, from a financial point of view, there is no cost behind this revenue of more than 140 billion US dollars.”“If we do not have any cost, the 140 billion US dollars is basically net profit, and we will have to pay corporate income tax at 25%. How do you think this should be reasonably and legally coordinated? Can you include the raw materials for making the Rejuvenating Pill as well as the costs incurred in the production process?”Charlie laughed and said, “How much could the raw materials possibly cost? With a revenue of 149.23 billion US dollars, even thir

    Although Charlie was not a native of Aurous Hill, he had long regarded Aurous Hill as his second hometown.He had lived in Aurous Hill for nearly twenty years, and now that he had some abilities, he really wanted to be able to do something for Aurous Hill.This was especially so for the orphans in Aurous Hill and surrounding cities. This orphanage and twelve-year school were a dream that Charlie wanted to work hard to realize.In fact, he often thought back to his life and all of his friends from the orphanage.He would often think of his former self, his younger sister, Stephanie, his good buddy, Harvey, and the irritating and annoying Joey as well as Max, whom Charlie had personally killed off because he had gone astray. Before Stephen had found him, everyone was actually not very promising.The biggest reason for this was because every one of them had not truly undergone or experienced very good higher education.Of course, neither the orphanage nor Stephen could be blamed

    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

    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
