The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 689
At this time, the energetic Lord Moore brought a group of Moore family members with him to give Charlie a toast.The group of people followed closely behind Lord Moore as they greeted Master Wade respectfully.Charlie stood up and picked up his wine glass before he said, “Lord Moore, you don’t have to be so polite with me. I wish to give you a toast with this glass of wine and I wish you a long and healthy life!”After he was done speaking, Charlie raised his head before he finished the glass of wine. After that, he said, “I am going to the Serene World Clinic to see Anthony after this so I will leave in a short while.”Lord Moore sighed before he said, “Oh, it is really sad to see Dr. Simmons’ medical hall being smashed and destroyed. I should also go over and take a look myself. However, there are still so many guests at the scene here today so I really can’t get away…”Charlie nodded slightly before he smiled and said, “Lord Moore, it’s your birthday today, so it’s only natural

Jasmine hurriedly waved her hand before she said, “Actually, my brother is pretty capable too. In fact, I really have no intention of inheriting the Moore family in the future. I simply want to make sure that my grandfather will not just be swept out of the house after he dies…”Charlie smiled slightly before he replied in a serious manner, “As long as I am around, I will never allow this sort of thing to happen.”Jasmine was really very grateful and she was overwhelmed with emotions at this time. She rubbed her eyes before she said, “Master Wade, I will send you to the Serene World Clinic now.”After that, Jasmine started the car before she drove out of the Moore family mansion.At this time at Serene World Clinic, Anthony and Xyla were both cleaning up all the herbs and materials from the medicine cabinet that had been smashed to the ground by the Webb family’s bodyguards.When Anthony saw Charlie and Jasmine walking into Serene World Clinic, he hurriedly stepped forward and sai

As Jasmine, Xyla, Charlie, and Anthony were talking about Kian’s affair, Charlie’s father-in-law, Jacob, was dressed in a suit as he happily walked out of his house and took a cab to The Heaven Springs.Since he was going to enjoy a little wine tonight, Jacob left his BMW at home. He had already given Charlie his car keys so Charlie could drive to The Heaven Springs to pick him up after his dinner.Jacob has no other hobbies during this period and he simply enjoyed studying antiques, cultural relics, and calligraphy and painting. That was the reason why he joined the Calligraphy and Painting Association.The reason why Jacob decided to buy everyone dinner tonight was because he wanted to contest for the position of the standing director of the association.In order to show his respect for the leaders of the association, he deliberately took the twenty thousand dollars that Charlie had transferred to him before he booked a bronze room at The Heaven Springs.Even though this was the

“Chester Scotson?” Jacob could not help but frown as he asked, “Are you talking about that old man who likes to brag to the point that he doesn’t even remember his last name just because he has a little money?”Morgan nodded before he said, “Yes. My support for you alone won’t be enough. When the other guests arrive later, you’ll have to try to win the support of the president and the other directors. That way, you might actually have a chance to defeat Chester in the internal voting and become the executive director instead. Do you understand what I’m saying?”Jacob nodded hurriedly as he said sincerely, “Brother Morgan, thank you for your sincere advice. You’re really inspiring! Thank you so much!”Morgan smiled slightly before he said, “Brother, why are you being so polite with me?”After that, Morgan glanced at the time on his watch before he said, “The chairman and the rest of the guests will also be here soon. Let’s wait for them at the door. That way, it will seem that you a

When everyone in the room heard that Chester had actually booked a Gold Room upstairs, they were all shocked!The Heaven Springs was one of the top restaurants in the entire Aurous Hill.Even some of the savvy and prestigious figures from the upper class society in Aurous Hill hardly had the opportunity to book a Gold Room even if they spent a lot of money or made use of the connections that they had to do so.Among everyone present here tonight, even Mr. Bay who had the highest status had never had the chance to enter the Gold Room for dinner. They had never been able to step into the Gold Room to see how luxurious it was.Now, Chester was actually offering to entertain all of his guests in the Gold Room at The Heaven Springs tonight. All of the guests in the room were in fact very surprised and excited when they heard that they would have the opportunity to go in and see the Gold Room for themselves!In comparison, Jacob’s small Bronze Room was now completely incomparable to the

Therefore, among all the people present here today, not one of them had even been up to the fifth floor of Glorious Club.Even Chester himself could only afford the lowest Classic membership tier at Glorious Club. Therefore, everyone naturally did not believe it when Jacob said that he had been to the tenth floor of Glorious Club before.Jacob really did not expect everyone to think that he was only bragging when he was simply telling them the truth. Therefore, he replied uncomfortably, “My son-in-law was the one who arranged for me and some of my old classmates to go up to the tenth floor of Glorious Club that night.”Chester laughed before he said, “I know who your son-in-law is. He is just a useless and casual son-in-law in Aurous Hill, isn’t it? I heard that he’s just a vagrant who is living off his wife. He’s almost as pathetic as you, so can he really afford to bring you to Glorious Club?”Jacob snorted coldly before he said, “It is entirely up to you whether you believe me
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 695
The expression on Jacob’s face was obviously very ugly after getting ridiculed by Chester.However, Jacob kept Morgan’s reminder in mind and he reminded himself that the most important thing was to win the position of the executive director at the end of the day. Therefore, he should not lose his temper and get angry at Chester.Jacob held back his anger and he did not say anything anymore. Instead, he simply followed the crowd of people as they followed Chester all the way to the Gold Room that he had already booked upstairs.As soon as they stepped into the Gold Room, everyone was very surprised as they admired the luxurious decorations in the Gold Room.At this time, one of the directors could not help but exclaim out loud, “It’s all thanks to Chester that we can get this opportunity to take a look at the Gold Room inside The Heaven Springs today!”Someone echoed, “Yes! Not too long ago, a friend of mine who had tens of millions of dollars wanted to book the Gold Room. However,

Jacob could only grit his teeth in anger.If he knew that Chester would be so vicious to keep insulting and humiliating him like this, Jacob would not have agreed to come up to the Gold Room at all.***Jacob was completely speechless and at a loss for words.At this time, Albert has just stopped his car at the entrance of The Heaven Springs.The first thing that he did after getting out of his car was to hurriedly ask the manager who opened the car door for him, “Is there a customer named Jacob Wilson who reserved one of the rooms at our restaurant today?”“Yes. He booked the Bronze Room No. 3.” The manager kept a careful record of the guests who came to the restaurant every day. Therefore, he naturally knew every single guest who booked a room at The Heaven Springs today.Albert nodded slightly before he hurriedly said, “Come. Come with me to the Bronze Room No. 3 now!”While he was still at Lord Moore’s birthday banquet, Master Wade had informed him that his father-in-law wo

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6611
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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6609
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
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.
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6606
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
