“You agreed?!”When Merlin heard his son-in-law’s reply, his whole body felt both surprised, and he was vaguely leaping out of joy.Although he had said that Lord Acker was old-fashioned, he had actually also been convinced by Lord Acker long ago.He knew that this kind of old-fashioned thinking should be criticized to a certain extent, but he also agreed with Lord Acker’s logic, which was that the family’s last name should be passed on. Regardless of whether it was male or female, as long as there was an offspring with the last name, the lineage would continue to be passed on. However, once there was a break in the middle, this lineage would exit the stage of history completely within a few decades.Therefore, if his son-in-law agreed to let his daughter’s children take the last name, Lammy, the family name would be able to continue to be passed down the line. Merlin was very excited to hear that his son-in-law had agreed because of this.However, he did not expect that his

Merlin was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, and he could not help but ask, “A hundred million US dollars could have such an impact?!”Merlin’s son-in-law nodded heavily without hesitation, “That’s right! Dad, a hundred million US dollars has that much power in the hands of rich people!”With that said, he continued, “Of course, the most important point here is that the Acker family can guarantee us an annual net interest rate of eight percent. Uncle Christian said that if the market environment goes down and cannot reach the net interest rate of eight percent or if there was a loss, the Acker family will also make up for our trust’s eight percent net profit. For example, under normal circumstances, a hundred million US dollars will become a hundred and eight million US dollars in the first year, but if the market environment is no good this year and the hundred million US dollars is only ninety million US dollars in the end, the Acker family will take out eighteen million US

Merlin suddenly felt that this world was somewhat magical when he saw his son-in-law’s nervous and eager expression.He originally admired his son-in-law very much and always felt that this boy had an unyielding spirit, was not afraid of poverty, and would never lower his head or admit defeat. To put it bluntly, he felt that his son-in-law was very similar to himself, and he could even see a bit of himself in his son-in-law.It was precisely because of this that Merlin sincerely treated his son-in-law as his own son since he had no son of his own.But at this moment, his son-in-law’s behavior made him realize that as a detective who had seen countless people, his view of his son-in-law had been one-sided, wrong, and naïve. He used to think that his son-in-law was the kind of noble character who would not lust after wealth, but now, it seemed that he was already lustful from a somewhat high starting point, and this starting point was completely inaccessible both to him and his so

All of them would have to wait eighteen years, whether it was for a luxury mansion, a luxury car, or to live a luxurious high society life.If they took into account that there was still eight months to the baby’s expected due date, that would be equivalent to waiting for nineteen years.However, the ten million US dollars cheque that Kathleen had given to Merlin was different. This was not a conditional family trust, but it was a real cash cheque. As long as Merlin took this cheque to any bank in the United States, the cheque could be exchanged for ten million US dollars in cash directly. When Merlin heard them asking about the ten million US dollars, he could not help but say, “My original idea was to put the money into a trust, but the trust that I checked did not have an annualized return as high as eight percent. I calculated it at an annualized interest rate of 3.8%, and there would be almost twenty million US dollars in the trust after eighteen years. The interest can then

The next day, while Yahiko and Hiroshi were wearing masks as they jogged in Central Park, Rosalie and her parents bid farewell to Charlie with immense gratitude before they headed to the airport and took a flight back to Aurous Hill.Charlie stayed in New York for two more days. After spending some time with Nanako and the other Ito family members for two days, Nanako also said goodbye to Charlie reluctantly before her family set off and returned to Japan.After Nanako had left, Charlie gave Porter the order to take Clarissa, who had handed the contraband over to Elaine, back to New York.Clarissa’s real name was Clara Holt. In recent years, she had been working as Martha’s underling. Her main task was to pose as a businesswoman with the false identity of Clarissa Zinn and hand contraband goods that needed to be brought out of the country over to the mules chosen by Martha.Although this woman had never killed anyone with her own hands, she had aided the evildoers and harmed many i

At this time, Elaine looked at the female prison guard before slowly putting down the magazine in her hand as she said with some dissatisfaction, “Lucia, it’s not that I want to complain about you, but the magazines that you’ve been delivering to me these days are all too boring. The stories in the magazines are bad, vulgar, and not educational at all. Can’t you get me a few copies of ‘Soulmates’ instead?” “‘Soulmates’?” The female prison guard was a native Oskian-American, so she did not know what Soulmates was at all. So, she asked nervously, “Elaine, what is this ‘Soulmates’ you’re talking about?”Elaine said arrogantly, “Soulmates is a very deep and literary Oskian magazine. It has been my favorite literary publication for many years. If it weren’t for prejudice, the author of Soulmates would have already won the Nobel Prize for Literature! Imperialism is indeed taking over!”The female prison guard said embarrassedly, “Elaine, the Nobel Prize is not judged by Americans. It’s m

Elaine’s icy cold voice made Chloe and Jacelyn’s faces turned pale out of fear.Their lives had been comparable to hell over the past few days.The two of them were doomed to a terrible end considering what they had done to Elaine before, coupled with Elaine’s vengeful character.In the beginning, Elaine would beat and torture them, but now, she had gradually changed to humiliating and treating them as her slaves instead. Denying them food, finding all kinds of coolie jobs for them, and then watching them struggle like captives who had been imprisoned without being able to catch their breath was Elaine’s favorite thing to do. For example, when the weather was hot, Elaine liked to be barefoot in the cell, so the two of them would have to take turns wiping the floor at least five times a day. If the soles of her feet got dirty after walking in the cell for a day, the two of them would not be able to sleep that night. While the others were sleeping, they would have to kneel on the

As she was thinking about this happily, the Oskian female prison guard from earlier rushed to her dining table and said happily, “Elaine, Elaine! There’s good news, Elaine!”When Elaine saw her excited expression, her heart skipped a beat, and she could not help but blurt out, “What’s the good news? Why are you so excited?”The female prison guard hurriedly explained, “Elaine, your lawyer is here!”“My lawyer?!” Elaine’s expression instantly froze and she exclaimed, “Is it Jakel White? What is he doing here?!” The female prison guard said excitedly, “He’s here to meet with you. He said that he has some good news that he wants to convey to you in person.”Elaine was stunned and frowned as she said, “Could it be... Could it be that he has cleared me of suspicion?!” The female prison guard said without hesitation, “That should be it. Otherwise, how could it be good news?! Congratulations, Elaine! You will soon be cleared of all suspicion and regain your freedom!”Elaine’s express

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6608
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
