The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 915
Paul admired Charlie from the bottom of his heart.He was an American who was more like an Oskian! He was obsessed with Oskian traditional culture and Feng Shui metaphysics to the point of worshipping.Charlie’s earlier comments and remarks made him feel that Charlie’s insight and expertise in Feng Shui were unfathomable. He also understood why someone was willing to give Charlie a fancy villa worth hundreds of millions of dollars.Paul was very aware of the importance of a Feng Shui master. A competent master could not only help people improve their luck and gather wealth, but they could even help people change their luck and therefore their futures! Therefore, every Feng Shui master came with their own price tag, the better they were, the higher their appearance fees were. Rumors had it that Ka-Shing Li, Hong Kong’s wealthiest man, would pay hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars per visit for their designated Feng Shui master.This was also why he felt that the four million

Another example of the overwhelming politeness was when a few people rushed to pay the same bill at the same time after dinner.Everyone rushed to pay, but not all of them were sincere to pay. Their intention was simply to show their effort in being polite as if they would look immature if they didn’t.Therefore, it was quite a common scene for a few people to gather around the cashier, arguing and insisting on paying.Exhausted by such meaningless scenes, Charlie admired Paul’s wittiness and decisiveness. He stopped all the nonsense when Charlie stated that he was busy and saw him off. This was the wise way of communication between smart people.Paul walked Charlie all the way out of his office and came to the elevator lobby. He took the liberty to press the button for Charlie. Then, they both looked at the digital indicator that showed an elevator coming up from the first floor and stopped on their floor.Paul hurriedly gestured as soon as the elevator stopped, but before he man

At this moment, the graceful Jasmine exited the elevator.The purpose of her visit was to give Paul the flower baskets, but she could not take her eyes off Charlie.She was over the moon every time she saw Charlie as if she had returned to her eighteen-year-old self, the tender age when she had first experienced love and passion.In fact, a girl who was from a wealthy and influential family like her had to learn to grow up and be mature earlier than ordinary people. They had to get into the cruel reality earlier and learned to put on a disguise earlier.But ever since she bumped into Charlie and falling in love with him, her ability to put on her disguise failed whenever she was in front of him.She asked shyly while staring at Charlie, her eyes full of admiration and affection, “Master Wade, how do you know Mr. Paul? He just arrived in Oskia not long ago, didn’t he?”Charlie smiled warmly and answered, “My father-in-law and Paul’s mother were college mates, that’s how we knew ea

Jasmine glanced at Paul gratefully. “Okay then, I don’t want to be a bother either. Let’s get together sometime. See ya!”Paul was indeed very high in IQ and EQ. He could see that Jasmine had fallen head over heels for Charlie, hence the favor. If so, he might as well be the gentleman here and help her.Jasmine turned to Charlie and said, “Let’s go then, Master Wade!”Charlie nodded with a polite smile. “Thanks for the lift.”Jasmine smiled, her face blushing shyly. “You’re welcome, Master Wade.”***Jasmine gestured to her bodyguards to carry the flower baskets into Paul’s office. She pressed the elevator, reached out to block the door, and said, “Master Wade, after you!”Charlie nodded slightly and stepped into the elevator, and Jasmine followed in.When the elevator door closed, the faint and luxurious fragrance on Jasmine’s body slowly penetrated Charlie’s nostrils and tingled his sense of smell.He must admit that Jasmine had a great and refined taste.

After Elaine returned to the detention center from the police station for questioning, she was extremely anxious and restless while waiting for the results.She had no idea if the police would release her, so she prayed and prayed wholeheartedly.In the two days since being locked up in the detention center, she had suffered the torment that she had never experienced in her life. She was on the verge of collapsing right now. She feared that she would die here if they didn’t release her.Lady Wilson was in jitters when she knew that Elaine was called to the police station for questioning this morning. She was worried that Elaine would confess to the officer about the bullying she had suffered in the cell by her and Jennifer.She was also worried that Elaine would apply for a cell change.If the officer took her away, her greatest and only pleasure in the detention center would be gone!For so long, Lady Wilson was down in the dumps because of the misfortune and tribulations that s
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 920
Lady Wilson snorted coldly. “What did you do wrong, you ask me? Listen, you are wrong as long as you are alive and breathing! Your only choice is to die and not waste the oxygen in this world!”Sharp pain from Elaine’s ear made her shiver in fear. She felt like her ear was about to be pulled off, but she didn’t dare to show the slightest intention of disobedience. She could only swallow the bitterness and endure the pain and suffering with all her might. ‘Just a while longer, just a while longer and I’ll be out of this hell hole!’‘After I get out, this useless old fart will also be released in a couple more days. Until then, she will have no place to stay, no food to eat, and she will probably die on the street! By then, I’ll get my revenge!’Did the old fart really think that she would be held up for ten odd years? She even dreamed of going to stay at the Thompson First villa with that stupid letter! What a joke!The old fart must have never imagined that not only would she not

Elaine was very upset but she knew that the prison guards had absolute authority toward them, so she sheepishly followed everyone out of the cell.When they arrived at the yard, the guards commanded, “First, run three laps around the yard, then you can roam freely for half an hour. After that, line up at the entrance of the yard and return to your cell!”Everyone quickly formed up a line. Jennifer was the head of the cell, so she arranged the queue. She glared at Elaine in dismay and chided, “Hey, you, stand in the front. Everyone will keep their eyes on you. If you don’t run properly, I’ll blow your head!”Then, she turned to other inmates and said, “You and you, help the old lady and run slowly, don’t wear her down.”Lady Wilson chuckled warmly. “Oh, Jennifer, you’re too kind. I am old, but I’m still quite fit and strong. I don’t need anyone to help me, I’ll walk slowly behind you.”Jennifer nodded and shouted, “Get ready, run!”Elaine was in great pain from all the beating and

Everyone started to retreat when they saw how fearsome and intimidating the scar-faced woman was, but the delightful grin on Lady Wilson’s face was a stark contrast to their timid expressions. She was very happy as long as she saw Elaine being beaten.Wendy shared the same gleeful delight too. None of the beatings that Elaine had suffered for the past two days was comparable to the slap she had sustained today. The scar-faced woman must be very strong to be able to knock Elaine to the floor with a simple slap.Elaine, on the other hand, shivered in tremendous horror!Being beaten was not a big deal for her anymore as she had experienced it firsthand for the past two days, but she didn’t understand why the scar-faced woman had beaten her.Was she a member of the transnational scam group that was here to settle the score?Just when Elaine was shaking in fright, Jennifer smiled sheepishly at the scar-faced woman and said, “Sister, we don’t know this woman. If you want to beat her up,

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

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6599
Pausing, Charlie then said, "I'll call Steve to drop by later too. I'm sure folks in Aurous Hill won't know him, but your potential troublemaker might.""I-Is that really fine?" Yolden blurted."What's not fine about it?" Charlie chuckled. "He has been treated like a tool ever since he came to Aurous Hill, and now that he has a chance to strut about, he wouldn't ask for more."Yolden appeared slightly relieved at that, and Charlie asked, "By the way, where's Paul, Matilda, and Autumn?""Getting their makeup done," Yolden replied. "Paul's my best man while Autumn's the maid of honor.""Good," Charlie nodded with a grin. "Don't worry—the wedding's going to be a success."As they spoke, Matilda stepped out of the dressing room in a stark-white wedding dress, flanked by Autumn and Paul.Seeing Charlie, Autumn nodded politely, "Good morning, Mr. Wade."As Charlie nodded in turn, Paul started, "G-Good morning… Mr. Wade…"Seeing that he was nervous and tentative, Charlie knew that he
