Jacob instantly blushed at her words, and he stuttered as he tried to defend himself, “Who said I was asking my dear son-in-law for money? Did I say that?! I have other reasons for talking to my dear son-in-law. Don't make false accusations against me!”Instead of arguing with Jacob, Elaine turned to Charlie and said, “My dear son-in-law, you heard what he said. No matter what he's scheming, don't give him a single penny!”Jacob was immediately furious, and he angrily exclaimed, “Elaine, why are you like this? Why are you always just talking about money?”Elaine playfully shook her head and grinned as she said, “What's wrong? Since you're not asking my dear son-in-law for money, why does it bother you if I tell him not to give you any?”Jacob was speechless. Elaine's strong defense had thwarted his intentions completely. With her words, he couldn't bring himself to ask Charlie for money anymore. How could he, after being put in such a situation?Jacob, who was at the losing end, w

Jacob felt incredibly uncomfortable when he saw Charlie go upstairs, but he felt even worse as if it was no longer worth living when he saw Elaine's triumphant smile. As Charlie went upstairs, he couldn't help but sigh, wondering when his father-in-law would break through his hesitation and weakness and truly live the life he wanted.-After packing everything, Charlie left home alone at night, intending to drive to the airport. As soon as he took the elevator to the first floor, he saw Jacob, holding a cigarette, stand up from the sofa with a smile, saying, “My dear son-in-law, are you leaving now?”Charlie nodded slightly and said, “Yes, Dad. I'm leaving for the airport now.”Jacob rubbed his hands and was about to say something when Elaine suddenly limped down the stairs, saying loudly, “Oh, my dear son-in-law, let me see you off!”Both Elaine, who had received one million, and Jacob, who missed out on it, wanted to see Charlie off.Jacob wanted to find an opportunity to sub

Late night at Qi Temple.In a secluded meditation room that was closed to the public, a beautiful woman sat on a wicker chair, gazing up at the starry sky of autumn. A bald elderly woman emerged and placed a blanket over the woman's legs, saying respectfully, “Madam, Young Master's plane has taken off.”“He has left?” The beautiful woman looked toward the direction of the airport upon hearing this.Upon seeing some distant flickering lights in the sky, she couldn't help but sigh as she said, “I wonder which one of those shimmering lights belongs to the plane that my son is on.”She then asked the old woman, “Did Janus go with Charlie?”This beautiful woman was Charlie's mother, Ashley. The old woman beside Ashley was Jade Sun, who had disguised herself as a nun. Jade had been serving by Ashley’s side for many years, playing a role equivalent to that of a housekeeper.Jade then said to Ashley, “Madam, Young Master is indeed on the plane with Janus. Their plane flies fast, and it i

Janus said, “Not yet. I was in a hurry this time, so I didn’t tell him because I was worried that it wouldn’t be good if I couldn’t make time to come and see him.”Charlie smiled and said, “In that case, you don't need to call him. Let's just go over and give him a surprise.”“Okay!” Janus readily agreed, with clear anticipation in his expression. He couldn't help but say to Charlie, “Young Master, to tell you the truth, I've always treated Angus as my own son. It's been a while since I've seen him, so I really miss him.”Charlie understood completely.Janus had lived a very tough life in the United States in the past. In the earlier years, it was somewhat better with Jenna accompanying him and providing some comfort in tough times. However, after Jenna left, he was left alone, managing a roast goose stall with an illegal immigrant status. He was truly living a tough and hopeless life.For him, Angus was not just an orphan he adopted or an assistant, but he was more of a sustenanc

Upon seeing Angus's nervous expression, Charlie, who had been silent all this time, immediately realized that the increasingly closer sound of motorcycle engines outside might be coming for Angus.At this point, Janus realized that Angus might have gotten into big trouble, so he asked sternly, “Angus, tell me the truth. Who have you offended?”When Angus saw that he could not conceal the matter any longer, he had no choice but to explain, “Uncle Janus, these people who are here are all from a new gang in New York…”Janus exclaimed, “Did you borrow money illegally?”Angus quickly explained, “No, Uncle Janus! They just took over Oskiatown a couple of days ago, and now, they're going door to door collecting protection money. It's three thousand US dollars a month, and if you can't pay, they'll beat you up and threaten to smash your shop.”Janus furrowed his brow and asked, “Hasn't Oskiatown always been managed by the Oskian gangs? It's been three hundred US dollars a month for protec

Charlie simply sat down and said with a smile, “To be honest, I have never seen gangsters collecting protection fees. This would be a good opportunity for me to witness it. Angus, go and get me a plate of roast goose rice so I can eat while I watch.” Angus hurriedly said, “Mr. Wade, they really dare to kill people! You should…”Before Angus could finish speaking, Janus interrupted him, patted his shoulder, and said, “Since the young master has already asked you to prepare a plate of roast goose rice for him, you should prepare it quickly. Make me a portion as well so I can taste whether your cooking skills have regressed.”At this time, five young black men dressed in trendy street clothes stepped in. The leader was thin and tall and wore a large hoodie, which covered his head and half of his face. His hands were in the horizontal pockets in front of the hoodie, and he looked like he was carrying a weapon. When the man came in and saw Angus, he immediately sneered and teased, “

“Damn it!” The man was furious when he saw that Charlie did not seem to be afraid and was even taunting him. He used the bottom of the pistol to push all the bottles and jars on the table to the ground, then stood up and held the muzzle of the gun against Charlie’s head as he cursed with a sinister expression, “Oskian! This is the United States! If you dare to cause trouble here, no one will let you go back to Oskia but will shoot you directly in the head with a pistol!”Charlie smiled and said, “You’re really arrogant,”After saying that, Charlie stopped smiling and said contemptuously, “Unfortunately, I’m not afraid at all.”The man clenched his teeth and said, “Damn it! You must be really tired of living!”Charlie spread his hands and said calmly, “I’m sitting here today, so regardless of whether it’s a burning angel or a wild dog in the crematorium, if you dare to come and challenge me, you will have to come and appease me. If you satisfy me, I might spare your life, but if I

No one dared to say otherwise when Charlie asked Homer’s father, grandfather, and even great-grandfather whether they were convinced that he had killed Homer. Now that a few gang members who did not know any better actually dared to threaten Charlie with a pistol, Charlie would never let them off easily. At this point, the leader stared at Charlie, but Charlie was not afraid at all. Instead, he looked at Angus and said, “Get me another plate of rice. This piece of trash wastes food, but I will make him kneel on the ground and lick all the grains of rice on the ground like a dog.”The man was on the verge of breaking down. He had already fired the pistol, but Charlie was still not afraid at all. This caused him to feel a little frustrated.He opened his mouth in an exaggerated manner, smacked his thick lips, and clenched his teeth in anger as he said, “Oskian! Since you’re courting death, I’ll send you on your way to meet God, then!”With that said, the man then pulled the trigge

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6607
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

If Charlie really did get Jimmy to stay, who knew what other rubbish Jimmy would spout.As for Jimmy, he was actually surprised Charlie was asking him to stay, and his instincts told him that Charlie definitely didn't mean well.Not only that, he was on foreign soil—wouldn't he be defenseless if Charlie called in his friends to beat him up?Hence, he shook his head without hesitation as he said, "I'm sorry, but my sister-in-law is quite keen for me to leave, so I have no reason to stay and add to her problems. And it is her big day. I can afford to let her save face instead of spilling the beans on her all at once.""Oh, but you were complaining about the lack of important people just now!" Charlie quickly interjected. "It just so happens that we have a big-shot on his way here, and he's a good friend of the groom. When I told him about you over the phone, he said to keep you here no matter what it took, since he would like to talk to you face to face."Jimmy frowned. "What, are y

And with those words, Jimmy turned to leave.Despite threatening Matilda, there was no such agreement, and he knew that Matilda was well aware of that.Regardless, the only strategy he had in mind when he came to Oskia was harassment. As such, he simply came up with a lie to make Matilda look bad in public. All it took from there was just for one person to relay what he had said—even if it were all lies, Matilda's character would still be called into question.He made himself very clear so that Matilda would understand that if she didn't give in, his family would keep hounding her to take their two pounds of flesh. Even if she wouldn't surrender the stateside estates and human resources of Smith Group Corporate Law, they would still claim a sizable chunk.But if that failed too, they would just have to destroy Matilda's reputation along with Smith Group Corporate Law.Either way, they were not letting her off easy!And reading that much from Jimmy's behavior, Matilda snapped co
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6603
Jimmy didn't expect Matilda to break down the share ownership of Smith Group Corporate Law to such detail, and he hollered as he was starting to feel embarrassed, "Now, you're just being irresponsible, Matilda. My father gave my brother a million to start the law firm in the first place, and they had agreed that the family would have a stake, albeit only at 49%, to not deny your decision-making as a startup. Or are you denying it?"Matilda immediately became furious and snapped, "Bullshit! That was just a loan of one million, and the agreed term was three years. However, your brother returned it in one! I even asked him to return the money with every single one of his siblings watching, since you might all get skeptical, yet suddenly, you're calling it an investment?""You said he's returned it? Well, what proof do you have?" Jimmy quickly shot back. "Our entire family can testify that the money hasn't come back to us!""So, this is how you're going to play it?" Matilda smirked. "Th
