Chapter 6469

작가: Lord Leaf
However, neither Zachary nor Jacob expected Raymond to confuse them further as he asked Billy, "If you can afford to wait, you can leave the bronze sculpture with me as a consignment. I'll only take 10% off the sales while you get the rest—how about that?"

Jacob was stunned and asked Zachary, "What the hell is he up to? Did he get too deep into character?"

Zachary shook his head. "I don't get it either… is he trying to keep the bronze sculpture to use as evidence against us?"

Jacob frowned. "I thought you said there was a gentleman agreement in this business, and the cops won't really care anyway?"

Zachary snorted. "He said he would keep it as a consignment, meaning that he won't spend a dime. What if he told all the antique dealers instead of going to the cops? He would prove that he's sharp, making a name for himself… and what can we do? Do we take back the bronze sculpture? Even if we do, can we really ask for it?'

"Fuck!" Jacob swore. "Then what are we waiting for? Tell Billy

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6654

    Don Albert sighed. "You have definitely been dishonorable, but I won't make things hard for you either. By that, I mean I won't demand that you restore Jacob's position as the Calligraphy and Painting Association. Still, you need to at least afford him a mid-level management position."On top of that, I would like you to apologize to Mr. Wilson—after such a farce, a face-to-face apology is necessary.""Yes! Definitely!" Kenny promptly agreed, not daring to breathe anything that sounded remotely like a no.Nonetheless, a face-to-face apology to Jacob was easy—the mid-level management position was the hard part.If only he had never listened to his wife and blindly seized the chance to chase Jacob out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association…. If he had just stuck with the original plan to demote Jacob while promoting the other vice-presidents, everyone involved would be happy.Alas, he had missed that opportunity to keep everyone happy. Now, it was an uphill battle, and it was

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6653

    Kenny absolutely did not expect his move to trick Jacob.He was at first sincere about keeping Jacob in the Calligraphy and Painting Association, but because his wife Ivy advised against it, he decided that it was not worthwhile protecting Jacob.Hence, he used the resignation email he asked Jacob to write and approved it like it were the real deal, thus expelling him from the Calligraphy and Painting Association altogether.He expected no consequences aside from Jacob's discontent, since what did he have to worry about when Don Albert was clearly not concerned about what happened to him?What he did not expect was for Don Albert to suddenly change drastically in attitude, demanding an explanation as to why Kenny had approved the resignation.Caught out cold and absolutely nervous, Kenny quickly argued, "It's not what you think, sir! I was just under a lot of pressure—I mean, you know how terrible the backlash against Zachary and Jacob's fraud case was! Countless eyes were on me a

    Jacob's face lit up at Don Albert's words as Charlie spoke over the phone, "It's no big deal—it's about my father-in-law. I'm sure you're aware of his dismissal from the Calligraphy and Painting Association?"Reading between the lines, Albert said, "Yes, I've heard—it seems that Mr. Wilson resigned?"Jacob was at once indignant as he spoke up right then, "Don Albert, it's Jacob here—I think I should explain that I didn't resign. It was Kenny Bay who set me up. He lied to me, asking me to write a resignation email that was supposed to placate the angry mob. I did just that, only for him to approve it as if it was the real deal, denying me even the chance to rescind. It was absolutely despicable!""Really?!" Don Albert exclaimed, feigning surprise. "That's way out of line!"Encouraged by finding a kindred spirit, Jacob cried out in agitation, "Exactly, Don Albert! He was way out of line! Please, you have to help me out here!""Of course!" Don Albert agreed to it right then. "You are

    "That position… was removed?!"Kenny's heart thumped loudly at those words, and he promptly pressed, "Please, chief! We're talking about an entire ministry handling the entire province's cultural development! Yet you're saying a position just went poof?!"The man on the other side sighed. "Actually, it's precisely because it's so big that it needs to be streamlined. There's nothing I can do about that."Clearly reluctant to discuss the issue further, he then added. "I'm really sorry about this, but there's no need to rush, really. Just stay in the Calligraphy and Painting Association for a while, and I'll tell you right away should new opportunities arise."Kenny was naturally shrewd enough to read between the lines, and though despondent, he still replied politely, "Yes, sir. Thank you for telling me this—and do keep me in the loop if there are any developments.""Not a problem," the man on the other side agreed right away. "Oh, I have to hang up now. Let's catch up again sometim

    Charlie chuckled as he asked, "So, you're still keen for a return to the Calligraphy and Painting Association?""Yes! Why not?!" Jacob huffed before he knew it. "I've been thinking about it over the last few days, but I've made up my mind. It's like they say—why do we fall? So that we can learn to pick ourselves up! I've already been thoroughly humiliated, so at this point, nothing can hurt me."Charlie nodded. "I'll try asking.""Well, you have to be quick, like I said," Jacob promptly told him. "Don't wait until he gets promoted…""Promoted?" Charlie chuckled. "I don't think that's going to happen with his character. Who knows, he might stay in the Calligraphy and Painting Association forever."Jacob was naturally unaware that Charlie had already tasked Don Albert with calling in a few favors from Isaac Cameron's old connections to snuff out any chance Kenny Bay had for a promotion.He wanted to dump Jacob and rise above on his own? Charlie would tie him to the Calligraphy and

    Nate and the rest of Ares LLP didn't stay in Aurous Hill for too long since they were done with business on the first day.As such, they put aside all their differences and enjoyed their trip in Aurous Hill for the next three days, with Julien hosting a banquet at Heaven Springs in their honor.On that occasion, Julien dispensed with his poise as the Rothschilds' heir apparent and the aristocratic demeanor refined over decades. He was no different from a respected local head honcho, drinking to the honor of these subordinates, who were immediately shocked yet worshipful.As Julien was a VIP, Don Albert also put aside his work and came to Heaven Springs as well, seeing reflections of himself in the Rothschilds' heir apparent just then.It had been a while since Julien had come to Aurous Hill, and having observed Charlie's business management philosophy as well as how Albert ran things around Aurous Hill, he was starting to adopt local customs too.While Julien did extend an enthusi
