Charlie smiled before he said, “Don’t worry. I’ll just give it my all and ask them for help. Who knows if someone will agree to help me? They are much more powerful and more capable than we are, so they’ll definitely have stronger connections and contacts than we do. Perhaps they’ll be able to figure out what happened to Mom.”Claire breathed a sigh of relief and she said gratefully, “Charlie, thank you so much for everything!”Charlie smiled as he said, “Silly girl. I’m your husband, why are you being so polite to me?”As he spoke, Charlie patted her gently on her shoulder before he said, “Let’s go down and have dinner first, okay? After dinner, I’ll go out and look for some of my friends to see if they would be willing to help me. If they aren’t willing to help me, then I’ll beg them for help. No matter what it is, I promise to bring Mom back home safely!”Claire nodded repeatedly and she felt a lot more comforted and relieved at this time.Before this, Claire always felt that s

Charlie had a very big appetite as soon as he saw all of the dishes prepared by Matilda. However, out of politeness, he did not raise his chopsticks to try the dishes immediately. Instead, he took the bottle of liquor before he poured out a few glasses of liquor.After that, he took the wine glass in his hand before he smiled and said, “Aunt Hall and Paul, I would like to welcome you back to Oskia and Aurous Hill. I would also like to give you a warm welcome here in our house as our guest. Let’s enjoy a drink together today.”Jacob also hurriedly said, “That’s right! Let’s enjoy a drink together today!”Matilda picked up her wine glass before she said sincerely, “I really appreciate your kindness and hospitality towards my son and I. I really did not expect to be able to enjoy a home-cooked meal at my old classmate’s house on the first day that I’ve returned to Aurous Hill. I really want to thank you for this opportunity.”Jacob smiled before he said, “Matilda, we’ve been old class

At this time, Matilda gave Claire some steamed fish in vinegar sauce before she smiled and said, “Claire, why don’t you try the fish? This is also one of my specialty dishes. However, I’ve not cooked this in a long time so I’m not sure if it will suit your appetite.”When Claire saw Matilda enthusiastically placing the fish in her bowl, Claire nodded slightly in order not to hurt her feelings. After that, she said, “Thank you, Aunt Hall. You don’t have to keep giving me food. You should eat first.”Matilda nodded before she smiled and said, “Alright then. Make sure that you eat more today. If you can’t reach any dishes, ask Charlie to take some food for you then.”Claire nodded immediately. After that, she tasted the fish that Matilda had placed in her bowl. Claire could not help but marvel in shock as soon as she tasted the fish.Matilda’s cooking was really delicious and amazing. The fish was soft, chewy, and very fragrant.Jacob was also dumbfounded.He has never eaten such de

Since Matilda’s cooking skills were so amazing, everyone really enjoyed the meal tonight.Although Claire was somewhat dissatisfied with Matilda and felt a little repulsed by her, she did not have the ability to resist her delicious cooking at all. She would usually pay close attention to her diet but she actually ate three times the usual amount of food that she usually ate tonight.This was also the same case for Charlie and his father-in-law, Jacob. Both of them ate to their heart’s content and they finished up almost all of the food on the table.After he was done with his meal, Jacob secretly put his hand under the table to loosen his belt so that he could temporarily relieve his bulging stomach.At the same time, Jacob could not help but secretly thought to himself: “Matilda is really the most perfect woman in every aspect. It would be great if I could really divorce Elaine and get together with Matilda instead. I’d definitely be ascending from the eighteenth level of hell

After all of them had walked away, Claire closed the door before she asked Charlie, “The feelings between Aunt Hall and my father are too obvious. Do you think that my dad will cheat…”Charlie replied seriously, “I’m certain that Aunt Hall isn’t that kind of person. She is the kind of person who adheres very closely to principles. Even if she is really in love with Dad, she’d definitely wait until Dad and Mom are already divorced before she starts a relationship with him.”Claire rebuked him angrily, “What nonsense are you talking about? Why would Dad even divorce Mom?”Charlie knew that Claire would definitely not be able to accept it. Therefore, he did not continue discussing this matter with her in depth. After looking at the time on his watch, Charlie said, “My dear wife, you should stay at home and rest well tonight. Don’t go out to look for your mother anymore. I will try asking some of my friends to see if they will be able to help me out at all.”Claire nodded slightly befo

Charlie’s words awakened the old man in an instant.At this time, he finally realized that evasion was not the solution to the problem. Instead, the best solution was for him to face the problem and find the best way to resolve the issue.If he really wanted to start a proper relationship with Matilda, then the only way for him to do so was to divorce Elaine.He could only marry Matilda and officially make her his wife after he divorced Elaine.As he thought about this, Jacob felt much better and he quickly told Charlie, “Okay, I understand now. You should go and look for your friends now. I’ll ask around to inquire about the divorce procedures. I will ask your mother for a divorce as soon as she comes home.”After bidding farewell to his father-in-law, Charlie took a cab to Shangri-La.Isaac was already patiently waiting for him.The lobby manager invited Charlie to Isaac’s office in a respectful manner.As soon as he closed the office door behind him, Isaac immediately said r

After Charlie was done sorting out all the procedures for tomorrow with Isaac, Charlie took a cab home without rushing at all.At this time at the Aurous Hill Detention Center, Elaine was still living a nightmare.She had been beaten up and tortured in all sorts of manner ever since she was locked up in the detention center. Lady Wilson did not only pour a whole bucket of water over her head, but Elaine has not eaten anything at all in two days and nights. At this time, Elaine really felt that she was on the verge of collapse. She was down with a bad cold and a high fever.The high fever made Elaine feel as though she was burning all over and she felt that she was going to faint. However, she was still not allowed to lie on her bed. Instead, she could only curl up and shiver as she hid in the corner of the cell in the detention center.Elaine could not help but feel extremely cold because of her high fever. She trembled uncontrollably at this time.Elaine felt that she would not b

When Jennifer heard Elaine’s tearful accusations, she suddenly realized that what Elaine said actually made complete sense.The old lady was constantly accusing Elaine of being an unfilial daughter-in-law and she also said that Elaine was scolding her, beating her up, and stopping her from moving into the villa at Thompson First with her.However, the old lady did not look like a person who had been tortured or tormented for a long time. She was very healthy physically and mentally and she also had a very strong spirit. Furthermore, she was not fragile at all when she hit Elaine.Therefore, even though Elaine might have ten points deducted for her unfilial piety, the old lady’s hatred and revenge for Elaine would be at least one hundred percent!When Jennifer saw that the old lady was still hitting Elaine at this time, she immediately felt that something was wrong.She hurriedly said, “Stop hitting her, old lady. I think that you’re really being a little too ruthless. No matter wh

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6604
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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6602
In the first place, Jimmy had come to Oskia to claim a stake in Smith Group Corporate Law, ideally strong-arming Paul and Matilda into splitting the firm in two, with Jimmy taking everything in the States while Paul kept what was left.The way Jimmy saw it, Paul and Matilda were going to be permanently residing in Oskia anyway. There was no way they could manage things over in another country properly, so it was basically returning the firm to the rightful owner.Naturally, Jimmy also knew that despite bearing the Smith family name, the success of Smith Group Corporate Law was all the work of Jimmy's brother and Matilda. Jimmy's father had helped to a certain extent, but that extent of financial support wouldn't amount to an investment at all. No judge in the world would support his claim to the law firm's shares.Therefore, when he learned that Matilda was remarrying, he thought he could seize the moment to cause a scene. Nothing could be better if she and Paul decided to sacrifice
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6601
Jimmy deliberately raised his voice as he said coolly, "Oh, but I didn't want to intervene. It's you and your mother who left the States in a split second, taking with you the law firm which bears the Smith family name. Don't you think such behavior is inappropriate?"Seeing the surprised reactions of the guests, Paul promptly retorted, "The law firm uses the Smith family name, but it is my parents' legacy! They worked blood and sweat to build it from the ground up, and as their only son, I have a veto when it comes to decisions. Or did we need your permission to move to Oskia?""Where's your conscience, Paul?" Jimmy pursed his lips. "Even if you don't know how Smith Group Corporate Law was founded, is that the case for you? It would have been a joke if it weren't for my father's connections!"Hell, it's no exaggeration that it was my father who fought to expand the law firm across America, and just using the family name means you're borrowing the family's influence. The family hono

The blonde man's voice drew everyone's attention in an instant.Despite his foreign appearance, he spoke Oskian fluently and walked with a haughty gait, almost as though he was above the rest.Paul's expression turned grim the instant he saw him, and he hurried over with Charlie.Still, before Paul could speak, Charlie stopped him, frowning at the man as he said, "Don't you think it's inappropriate to come slinging personal attacks at someone else's wedding?"The man clearly didn't know Charlie, and he wasn't worried, seeing that he was young.Snorting in disdain, he asked, "You must be from the groom's family, yes? Please tell him that he doesn't deserve my sister-in-law.""It's up to the happy couple to decide that," Charlie retorted quietly. "Deserving someone is no issue as long as they both love each other."The man pursed his lips and looked pointedly around him. "Just look at how simple this wedding is. Forget picking an unassuming city like Aurous Hill—is there a single
