Chapter 4523

Author: Lord Leaf
Charlie asked curiously, “How long has it been since the food street was bought over?”

Marianne thought for a while and said, “It must be for more than ten years now. My father bought it for me the year he got married.”

Charlie asked her, “Do you know how much it cost when he bought it?”

“I forgot...” Marianne said embarrassedly, “I’m actually not that sensitive in this aspect. I was still young at that time and simply thought that I wanted to keep the food street intact. So, I asked my father to buy it for me. I really do not know how much it cost.”

Charlie asked again, “How do you know that there is still a deficit of two hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars every month, then?”

“The manager was the one who told me.” Marianne said, “My father put someone else in charge of the operation of this food street before I became an adult. It was given to me to manage after I became an adult, but I do not know how to manage it. I only thought that I should not increase the rental to ensure

    “Go to Oskia?”Charlie looked at Marianne in surprise and asked, “Haven’t you always been reluctant to leave Hong Kong?”Marianne said a little unnaturally, “That was before... I was still studying before this, so I did not want to leave Hong Kong. However, if I were to consider employment, there will definitely be even more room for development after I leave Hong Kong.”Charlie nodded faintly and said seriously, “Miss Marianne, if you’re really interested in going over to Oskia, you can go to Oskia to take a look after your graduation. You should walk around first and then choose a city that you like so that you can try to develop there. After all, you are highly educated and come from a good family background, so it should be very easy no matter where you choose to settle down.”Marianne hummed lightly in response. She wanted to ask Charlie which city he was from, but she could not bring herself to say those words when they reached the tip of her tongue. Meanwhile, the rain in

    Unexpectedly, Solomon only wanted to avoid him.Rudy was helpless, and he could only sigh deeply as he felt extremely regretful in his heart.At this time, Solomon, who was aside, seemed to be very disgusted with him and he blurted out, “There is nothing else for you to do here. Why don’t you get lost? Must you continue standing here to be an eyesore for me?!”Rudy sighed before looking at Hunter and asking respectfully, “Excuse me, can I leave now?”Hunter threw Dillion, who was on his shoulders, in front of him and said coldly, “Take your son away.”Rudy glanced at Dillion in disgust, and he felt extreme anger. This prodigal son had cost him to lose ten billion US dollars in one afternoon. Rudy was already considered very benevolent for not killing Dillion on the spot, let alone taking him home.Rudy also planned to break off his father-son relationship with his son. He too did not want to see this loser son of his just like how Solomon did not want to see him anymore.So, h

    Dillion had just woken up and was in pain all over his body, and he was filled with grievances. Unexpectedly, he saw that his own father was about to release his anger on him. He never would have dreamed that his own father would treat him as an enemy and rush up to kick him violently!He was in great pain after getting kicked several times by Rudy. He cried and shouted, “Dad, are you insane?! Why are you beating me?!”“Why am I beating you?!” Rudy panted as he cursed, “I’m beating you up because you’ve caused a lot of trouble for me, you scoundrel!”After that, Rudy sat on Dillion, grabbed his collar with one hand, and then slapped his face with the other as he scolded, “You b*stard! You’re always causing trouble for me! You’re going to piss me off to death sooner or later!”Dillion cried and yelled, “Dad... What did I do wrong? It’s fine if you’re not going to avenge me after I got beaten up like this, but why are you still beating me?!”Rudy was about to explode out of rage, bu

    Shawn blurted out, “I like it. I like it very much!”Charlie nodded and said, “Mr. Long, you don’t have to worry so much. Miss Marianne took me to have a really good dinner tonight, so I cannot eat supper anymore. Anyway, it’s not early anymore, so we can continue discussing things slowly when we go to your company tomorrow.”Shawn waved his hand and said, “It’s nothing. We can discuss the collaboration at any time you want. I’ll ask Marianne to continue showing you around tomorrow. You are both young people so you must have a lot of common topics to talk about.”Having said that, Shawn hurriedly asked Marianne, “Marianne, you should have nothing on tomorrow, right? If you have nothing to do, you can continue to accompany Mr. Wade, then.”Marianne was overjoyed, and she was about to agree to Shawn’s request at that time. However, before she could speak, Charlie said directly, “Miss Marianne will have a charity sale in Tsim Sha Tsui tomorrow. I will not take up her time...”Mariann

    Charlie followed Marianne and took the elevator to the third floor of the villa.After that, Marianne took Charlie to the center of two room doors. She then pointed at the room on the right and said to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, this is the guest room where you will be staying. It is a suite with an area of about eighty square meters with a living room, bedroom, and a separate bathroom.”Having said that, Marianne then opened the door and walked in with Charlie. Upon entering the door, they were greeted by the living room of this suite, which was about thirty square meters. The decoration was very luxurious, and there were all kinds of furniture and appliances in the suite.Marianne said to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, you can treat this place as a hotel, and you can call the butler directly if you have any needs. He will arrange for someone to serve you as soon as possible. In addition, I’m staying in the room opposite yours, and you can also come to me if you need anything.”Charlie thanked he

    She was a little surprised as she asked Charlie, “Mr. Wade, what are you doing up so early?”Charlie smiled and said, “I wanted to go out for a walk and take a look around. I also wanted to see how many mansions there are on Steerlain Island.”Marianne asked in surprise, “Mr. Wade, are you planning to buy a house on Steerlain Island?”Charlie smiled casually and said, “Yes and no. Even if I were to buy it, I would not be the one buying it.”Marianne did not quite understand what Charlie meant, but it sounded as if Charlie was really interested in Steerlain Island. So, she was overjoyed and hurriedly said, “Mr. Wade, I can make the introduction if you are interested in the houses here. The Halbert Mansion next to us is for sale, and it belongs to the Halbert family from Hong Kong.”Charlie smiled and said, “I’ll go and take a look, then.”Marianne hurriedly asked, “Do you need me to accompany you?”“No, it’s alright.” Charlie said, “Don’t you have something to do in a while?”Ha

    Charlie walked around Steerlain Island, and he felt that this place really had a unique geographical location.The density of luxury mansions on the winding road was not high on Steerlain Island even though land was scarce in Hong Kong. Each villa had a manor and one courtyard on its own. Coupled with the warm and humid climate in the south, it would not only be quiet but also comfortable to live here.Charlie then saw the Halbert Mansion that Marianne had mentioned. The door was closed, and it seemed like no one had lived there for a long time. Although the front of the house was a little old, its overall look was still stylish and grand. Charlie strolled around, and when he returned to the Long family’s villa, Marianna had just come out. When she saw Charlie, her pretty face flushed red, and she asked, “Mr. Wade, how was it?”Charlie smiled and said, “Very good. Are you ready to go out?”“Yes.” Marianne smiled and said, “I will try to finish up earlier today and pick you up a

    Jenna, who was aside, smiled and said, “Oh, Shawn, your idea is really good. Mr. Wade must usually have his own businesses to attend to in Oskia, but he can definitely rest on weekends. Why don’t you buy the Halbert Mansion next door, renovate it, and give it to Mr. Wade? You can send a plane to pick Mr. Wade up and bring him to Hong Kong for a vacation every Friday, then.”Charlie smiled and said, “Thank you for your kindness. This matter does not sound very suitable for me, but it seems to be rather suitable for one of my elders.”Having said that, he changed the subject and said to Shawn, “Mr. Long, shall we head to your company for a chat later?”“No problem!” Shawn said excitedly, “I’ll get someone to prepare the car now!”Jenna, who was aside, asked, “Shawn, will you and Mr. Wade be coming back for lunch? Would you like me to prepare lunch in advance?”Shawn waved his hand and said, “I’ll not be coming back. I’m planning to take Mr. Wade to Alkova Dining at noon so that he c

    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
