Chapter 756

Penulis: Lord Leaf
Claire almost fainted from all the preposterous scenes.

Her mother wanted to commit suicide when her dad wanted a divorce, but in the middle of the commotion, she picked a fight with someone who they only heard his voice, cursing such ear-piercing expletives…

Jacob was also a little flustered.

He knew that Elaine could be very ferocious verbally, but he didn’t expect it to be so ruthless…

If he insisted on divorcing her, would she spend the rest of her life crying and cursing in front of him?

It would be a horrifying living hell!

Jacob sighed dejectedly and thought, ‘Damn, it seems that the divorce plan doesn’t go as planned. Besides, I won’t dare to now…’

After winning the raucous debate at the balcony, Elaine felt a bit relaxed.

Leaning against the railing, she thought for a few minutes, then, she climbed down, sweeping the dust off her body, and walked back to the house.

“Jacob Wilson, you can get a divorce, here’s my term. I get the house, you have to pay fifty thousand

Charlie could back him up! How the hell can there be someone so ruthless and then so wimpy when it comes to his in-laws for his wife. Tell Claire about how she was born. If I were Claire, I’d be grateful to a point but to know you were the offspring of a deceptive mother like Elaine is too much

Jacob and Claire appear to be suffering from some twisted form of Stockholm Syndrome. They're too easily swayed to follow Elaine's every warped whim. Elaine hasn't a leg to stand on, yet makes such obtuse demands, and they fold like a house of cards.

    Seeing that Jacob was hesitating, Elaine hurriedly shifted into a flattering mode and said, “Dear, we can still earn money! Claire’s company is starting to grow, so when her business starts to make money, she will give you all her money for safekeeping, and you will be the financial power of our family, okay?” Jacob started to feel a little relieved when he heard the idea. He figured that since he couldn’t be in the upper hand now, it would end up bad if he bumped his head against her, hence, the better option right now was to compromise and accept the proposed solution.Elaine, on the other hand, was thinking, ‘Jacob Wilson, you’ll never be able to escape my grip! I put you in charge of the family’s finances because we don’t have any money now, you are nothing but a puppet. When we have money in the future, I will snatch the power back!’She was extremely delighted as she thought of it, so she started, “Dear, you are the best! I’ll cook tomorrow and make your favorite braised praw

    “Alright, I’ll take a shower.”***Meanwhile, as Charlie and Claire lay on the bed preparing to sleep, a heavy-lift helicopter flew by the Sudbury sky, soaring loudly. After spending two hours on the helicopter, Donald and Sean Webb finally arrived above the exclusive mansion in Sudbury. All the Webb family members were waiting on the big lawn of the mansion including Kian and his mother who were waiting by the side of the lawn. They already knew about the unfortunate incident in Aurous Hill and were eager to greet and comfort them.As the helicopter slowly descended, warm tears drenched Donald and Sean’s eyes as they saw their family waiting on the ground.The incidents that had happened in Aurous Hill were like purgatory which caused great suffering and misery to both of them.They were filled with relief and warmth now that they had finally returned home!As the helicopter landed and the door opened, the servants hurriedly rushed forward to help Donald, Sean, Johnny, and

    At this moment, Lord Webb was lying weakly in the ICU room of his luxurious mansion. Wires and cables scattered on his body like a million worms. The ECG monitor, blood pressure machine, blood oximeter, and so on were hooked to his body to monitor his condition round the clock. In fact, in order to sustain the old man’s condition, the doctors infused nutrient solutions through a tube and installed an oxygen inhalation system for him.The TikTok video was such a disastrous blow to Lord Webb that it triggered a severe heart attack instantly. Couple with his old age, he wasn’t physically and mentally strong enough to withstand the blow that he succumbed to a heart attack. It was fortunate that it didn’t escalate to a full-blown myocardial infarction.The old man was lying in bed, angrily cursing, when Donald, Sean, Kean, Derrick, and the rest of the family members came into the ICU room.“Those two shameless bastards, how dare they openly insult my family! If I don’t kill them, the W

    Sean knew that his grandfather adored him since he was a kid. He burst into tears and quickly wiped his tears away and said firmly, “Grandpa, don’t worry about me, I can handle it. You must take care of yourself!”Lord Webb, similar to Lord Moore, was the face of the Webb family. Moreover, he was very influential and had very wide and diversified social connections. He had friends in politics, business, and even the underworld. This was not only due to his rich experience but also because he remained close and direct relationships with many people and had helped a lot of people in the process.If Lord Webb passed away, these people would not be respectful to the Webb family like they did now. By then, the family’s influence would inevitably decrease by a large margin.In addition, Lord Webb was very wise and nimble. He did not hold the power for too long, instead, he chose to retire and hand over the power to Donald. In this way, his descendants would not resent or disgust with hi

    The Webb family quickly released a new house rule: ‘TikTik app is strictly prohibited within the compound of the Webb family mansion and will be considered a violation of the house rule and be punished with severe punishment!’Of course, the Webb family members adhered to the rule religiously because the video was a literal insult to their family. They wouldn’t want to watch it even if someone paid them to watch. However, the servants found the house rule repulsive.They were just working for the Webb family, they didn’t mind at all regarding the video that was transfixed in the app. On the contrary, they loved watching the video as it was very thrilling and exciting!This was mainly because the servants were subjected to a set of very strict and stern restrictions and regulations. There were many house rules that mainly controlled the servants which mostly would be punished physically or mentally once they violated the house rules.Because of the inhumane house rules, the se

    Kian barged forward and started kicking and punching the driver!The driver yelled in pain, but he didn’t want to provoke Kian further, hence, he could only raise his arms to protect himself from the punches. When he couldn’t hold it anymore, he quickly pulled his pants up and ran out of the toilet, didn’t even bother to wipe his buttock first.Kian shouted behind him, “Hey, hey, f*ck! Don’t you dare run away from me! I’ll break your leg!”Once he took a step forward, he suddenly felt dizzy and whimpered softly, “Oh damn…”He knew that the time had come again!In an instant, Kian Webb’s consciousness was replaced by the disgusting desire. His eyes blinked ecstatically when he saw the filthy excretion that the driver didn’t manage to flush away. He ran back into the toilet, squatted down, reached into the toilet bowl, grabbed the excrement, and stuffed it into his mouth… A few servants glanced in confusion when they saw the driver running out of the toilet while holding his pants

    Seventy men from Sudbury combed Aurous Hill, not leaving any missing sight.However, they could not find any clues regarding the whereabouts of Cain and Marcus. In fact, Cain and his family were in the car, leaving Aurous Hill and speeding towards the north. It was easy to catch a fish in a washbasin, but it was very difficult to find the precise fish in a freaking lake!Marcus was behind the wheels in the middle of the night, the lavish Mercedes Benz running wildly on the road. Suddenly, Cain’s phone rang.It was Cain’s neighbor who called. They retained a good relationship as they always hung out and had a drink or two together.Before they left town, he called his neighbor to ask him to take note in case there were any unusual activities around his house. So, when his neighbor called at a time like this, Cain assumed that there must be something happening at his house.Sure enough, as soon as he answered the call, the man on the other end of the line said in a low voice, “

    Tyler, Reuben’s father, was also stunned as he watched the scene. He was even more depressed than Reuben. As an heir apparent, his biggest fear was that his father would stay alive too long.Kangxi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty held the reigns for 61 years, and Yinreng, the son of the emperor’s first spouse, was the crown prince for forty years. Eventually, the crown prince got tired of waiting for succession and challenged his father to abdicate his throne.As Lord Moore was still holding the majority power of the family, the longer he lived, the more miserable Tyler would be.If the old man lived for another ten years, he would be in his 70s already, how could he still be the head of the family?It was even possible that he would die before his father…Tyler felt dejected when he thought of it.Jasmine, however, was delighted as she watched her grandfather getting healthier and more energized than before.Seeing that the old man was showing some signs of fatigue, she quickly m

    However, Jimmy realized something important even as he sighed in relief. "Wait, Mr. Wade… I know I should settle things in the family Stateside, but won't I be arrested upon arrival?""That's Julien's department," Charlie chuckled and turned toward the man. "Tell your butler not to send the evidence to the feds. If it has reached them already, ask to have it back and tell the feds they saw nothing."Julien promptly nodded. "I'll text him right now. You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Wade."Jimmy remained worried. "But sir, I think Nate's not going to let this slide. The man is cunning—he deliberately dug a pit so we'd fall into it, and he gathered all the dirt he could on us to be used as leverage when necessary."Charlie shook his head. "That's no big deal. Julien can make sure that you're fine even if the feds get the evidence."Julien nodded nearby. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. The decision remains in your hands, either way. Just say the word, and it's 25 to life… otherwise, not e

    The fact that Jimmy was a partner in Ares LLP already meant he had skill, while Matilda had herself been retired for years and definitely had lost her touch a little. So, having someone like Jimmy who had stayed on the frontlines all this while would definitely be no issue.And in turn, it was a good thing for Jimmy as it was better than the kennels either way.Charlie then asked Jimmy pointedly, "You say you're interested, but are you sincere about it?"Jimmy nodded without hesitation. "Yes, absolutely!""No regrets? We're talking about ten years here.""None, absolutely none!""Do you know what to say if anyone asks?""Yes, of course! I chose to further my career here in Oskia, and it was absolutely voluntary! That's what I'd say even if my family asked!"Charlie nodded. "Good. Then, you will have two weeks. Go home and set your affairs in order and report in for work afterward.""No problem!" Jimmy nodded repeatedly, actually surprised and grateful that Charlie would let hi

    And yet, Julien was suddenly clapping his hands, and exclaiming excitedly, "Yes, right! We should get his wife and son over too for a happy reunion!"He then paused and quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no! I mean, they should each be caged with one empty cage separating each of their cages. They can see each other and talk, but there will be no touching. How dare he flex on me—I gotta teach him a lesson to remember!"Jimmy dropped limply on his rump, and Matilda beckoned for Paul to help him up while turning toward Julien as she pursed her lips. "Please, Mr. Rothschild… Even if you don't accept his apology, don't bring his family into this. It's against Oskian tradition—you'd insult your family's name!"Julien shrugged, not hesitating to retort, "What do your traditions have to do with me? If I mean to hurt him, forget his family—I'll drag his dogs over too!"Seeing that Julien was so furious, Charlie decided to stop him, or he might actually go through with it."That's enough, J

    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
