Chapter 5671

Penulis: Lord Leaf
Charlie listened in amazement and couldn't help but ask her, “Back in Northern Europe, you had an old man accompanying you. You referred to him as ‘grandfather’ in front of me, but was he actually another orphan you raised?”

Vera smiled faintly and said, “The old man you mentioned is called Mr. Raven, and he is the last abandoned infant I adopted in Eastcliff after the July 7th incident just before heading to the United States.”

After pausing for a moment, Vera continued, “In fact, the majority of such children would establish businesses themselves with my assistance after reaching their twenties. Some assets might be entrusted to them for management purposes, but it's essentially a gift from me. In these more than two hundred years, I have given away countless fortunes.”

“Only a very small portion, such as Mr. Raven, who has deep affection, will willingly stay by my side. I will keep them by my side as well. After all, being just a woman and lacking self-defense skills, when I’m on

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 5672

    Over the past three hundred years, she had contemplated ending her own life countless times. However, the thought of her father sacrificing his life in exchange for her immortality always dispelled her thoughts of suicide. After all, she knew in her heart that her father's greatest wish before his death was for her to keep living. He hoped his beloved daughter would live a long life, not just for a hundred years, but preferably five hundred years. Meanwhile, his own life had ended at the age of forty-one.It was because of this that Vera, who was on the verge of collapse numerous times, clenched her teeth and persevered. Nevertheless, her heart had long been tormented and ravaged by immortality.Charlie truly felt pity for the young girl in front of him even though she was nearly four hundred years old.At this moment, Vera sighed deeply, and her eyes turned red as she sobbed and said, “Thank you for your compassion, Young Master…” After saying that, Vera continued, “I have inve

    When Vera heard Charlie’s words, she exclaimed, “A woman? Young Master, do you remember what that woman looked like?”Charlie furrowed his brows, recalling the brief glance he had, and said, “I feel that the woman appeared to be in her thirties, and she has a pretty decent appearance.”Vera nodded gently and said, “That should be Miss Dijo, one of the four great earls of the Qing Eliminating Society!”Charlie asked in surprise, “You know about the four great earls?” “I know a little.” Vera replied, “Although only Fleur has survived to this day in the Qing Eliminating Society, there are still descendants of my father's former subordinates within the organization. Due to the special poison concocted by Fleur, they are bound to serve her through generations. However, they are aware that I am still alive and have been trying to inform me in every possible way. Therefore, I still have some understanding of the internal situation of the Qing Eliminating Society.”“Although the four gre

    Rosalie was already on the verge of an emotional breakdown. She suddenly sat on the ground and burst into tears, immediately drawing the attention of others.People quickly stepped forward to comfort Rosalie. Although Albert was also deeply troubled, he still took the lead and spoke up, “Miss Rosalie, don't worry too much for now. Perhaps Master Wade has God’s blessing over him!”“That’s right, Miss Rosalie,” Isaac, though red and teary-eyed, tried to reassure her, “As long as there's no concrete evidence that Young Master is in danger, there's still hope for everything.”Rosalie knew they were all just trying to comfort her. In reality, everyone was deeply worried and sorrowful because they couldn't find Charlie. It was just that she was the first to lose control of her emotions.Just then, Merlin walked up with a confident look on his face and said to everyone, “Don't be too pessimistic for now. From what I see, the chances of Mr. Wade surviving are very high!”The crowd suddenl

    Albert was momentarily bewildered when he heard Charlie’s voice. His mind couldn't snap back to reality immediately. He just stared blankly at the sky, muttering, “Oh, my… Am I dreaming? Is God really this miraculous?”Charlie, who was on the other end of the phone, asked, “Albert, what are you muttering to yourself?” Only then did Albert snap out of it, asking in astonishment, “Master… Master Wade?! Is it really you, or am I hallucinating?!”As soon as Albert spoke, everyone around him had countless questions in their minds. They questioned him, demanding to know if the call was really from Charlie. Charlie asked Albert again, “You can't recognize my voice anymore?”It was then that Albert confirmed that the person who was talking to him on the other end of the line was actually Charlie. Albert instantly burst into tears of joy, asking, “Master Wade, where are you?! We've been searching the valley for nearly an hour and still haven't found you. We were getting so worried…”C

    As she spoke, Vera blushed slightly and said, “Besides, you’re not even clothed. If word about this gets out, it wouldn't bother me, but how would you explain things to your wife? Furthermore, Mr. Raven and the others live downstairs. If a helicopter flies in at night and several men come to my room, and another man without clothes is taken away, what would they think of me, then?”Charlie nodded and said helplessly, “You’re right about all that, but how are we going to get there now?”Vera said, “Wait a moment, Young Master. I'll make the necessary arrangements.”After saying this, Vera immediately stood up, went downstairs, and changed into a simple T-shirt and a pair of jeans.She made a phone call, and twenty minutes later, a two-seater light helicopter swiftly flew above the courtyard, then slowly landed in the yard.Once the pilot got out of the helicopter, he left through the courtyard gate without looking back.After he left, Vera came to the courtyard, took down a new se

    As Charlie flew with Vera toward Champs Elys hot spring villa, Merlin, Isaac, Albert, and others heaved a sigh of relief, stopped their search, and headed back to Champs Elys hot spring villa ahead of time.Merlin knew that the Ackers were worried about Charlie’s safety, so he hurried back to the villa as soon as he got off the plane. The Acker family members were anxiously waiting in the living room, hoping that Merlin would bring back good news. After all, Charlie was of great significance to the Ackers and had been a great concern for them for twenty years. Furthermore, Charlie’s other identity was actually the benefactor who once saved the Ackers, which further elevated Charlie’s status in the eyes of the Acker family members. When they saw Merlin walking in briskly, the Acker family members instantly stood up and looked at him eagerly. Lady Acker subconsciously walked toward him and murmured, “Merlin, have you found Charlie’s whereabouts?”Merlin smiled and said, “Lady Acker

    Lord Acker chuckled and said, “You deserved to get kicked out. Charlie already said that the pill must be taken directly on the spot, but you challenged his rules, so isn’t it natural for him to kick you out?” Christian was depressed and said, “Dad, who was I challenging Charlie’s rules for?”Kaeden, who was aside, patted Christian’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Come on, Christian. Although you were kicked out of the auction by Charlie, we should all be grateful for that incident. If it weren't for you, the Ackers might not have caught Charlie’s attention so soon. It's a good thing, and our whole family benefitted from it!”Christian sighed and said sincerely, “Oh, it’s not a big deal for me to get kicked out by my nephew. I just didn’t expect that my nephew would be so capable and end up being our benefactor. I just feel a little embarrassed when I think back to my words and behavior back at the auction.” At this moment, the sound of a helicopter could be heard outside the v

    Vera subconsciously said, “That’s different…”Charlie asked her, “How is it different? You can accept it when you call me Charlie, but you can't accept it now that you’re addressing me as ‘Young Master’?”Vera replied awkwardly, “I… I didn't mean that… I just feel that these pills are too precious. The reason I accepted the remaining part of the pill before this was because I was afraid that you would encounter danger one day. In that case, I could keep the remaining part of the pill for emergency use. Now that you’re safe and sound, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to accept any pills from you anymore, Young Master.”Charlie said unequivocally, “Then you'd better adjust your perspective as soon as possible and tell yourself that there's nothing inappropriate about it.”With that said, Charlie stuffed the pill into her hand directly. After that, he did not wait for her response and took out another Rejuvenating Pill, handed it to her again, and said, “This is a Rejuvenating Pill.

    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
