Max glared at Charlie indignantly and said, “Do you think I’m afraid of you? If it wasn’t for the accident, I would have won!”Stephanie said with an irritated pout, “Yeah, keep up with your bluff! Just now, Charlie simply stepped on the accelerator, and you were nowhere to be seen! In my opinion, you would definitely lose if that accident didn’t occur.”“Huh! Are you kidding me?” Max huffed, trying to make an excuse, “Charlie was able to overtake me in the first place because I forgot to switch the function into sports mode.”Then, he quickly changed the subject, “Ah! You don’t understand cars, this conversation is meaningless. Hurry, let’s go in. I’ve made a reservation.”Charlie shrugged nonchalantly and entered the Hyatt Hotel with the crowd.The Hyatt Hotel was a comprehensive hotel integrating dining, entertainment, and leisure, but due to its remote location, its popularity and scale paled in comparison to Shangri-La and Glorious Club.Max led the group into the hotel.

Charlie and Claire sat down on Mrs. Lewis’s right-hand side at her request. The others took their seats one by one.As soon as everyone sat down, Mrs. Lewis glanced at all of them and donned a gentle smile. “Kids, I’m so happy and thankful that you still remember me for all these years and even visit me!”Everyone on the table quickly said, “Mrs. Lewis, what are you talking about? It’s what we should do.”Mrs. Lewis asked, “How have you all been all these years?”They answered with a smile, “Thanks for your concern, we are doing quite well.”After leaving the orphanage for many years, everyone led their own lives in the direction they could head, but in general, they were just ordinary people. Regardless of the ideology and ambitions in the past, all of it diminished by the cruel reality. They eventually returned to ordinary life.Everyone had changed a lot. As they talked about their lives, they sounded casual and relaxed, but the listeners fell silent. Apparently, not all of th

Scott was one of Max’s lackeys who had been following him around for years.Charlie asked curiously, “Oh, does Scott work in the same company as you?”“Yes,” Max answered with a smile, “He is one of my assistants.”Then, he turned to Charlie and said, “Come and help me. I don’t need any working experience from you nor do I expect you to have any, you just need to do some errands for me. You know, make me coffee, clean my office, etc. You are the best at serving people. I’ll give you three thousand dollars a month. What do you think?”Make him coffee, clean his office, etc?Three thousand a month?Charlie answered with a smile, “Oh, your offer is so lucrative. I don’t deserve it, I’ll pass.”Max nodded triumphantly and said, “I don’t want to brag, but trust me, you’ll make a lot of money if you work for me. Just look at Scott. He would have starved to death if it weren’t for me.”There was a tinge of embarrassment on Scott’s face, but he dared not contradict Max.Max said with

Max was literally illustrating his personal experience.He was the one who had assumed the car was a Passat simply by seeing the Volkswagen logo, missing the ‘Phaeton’ entirely, and crashing into it.He was in a hot mess now. He now had millions of dollars of debt that he didn’t know how to settle.He would be so screwed if his conning strategy failed.“D*mn it!!! It’s really a Phaeton?!”A guy recognized the Phaeton’s car key. He blurted in excitement when he saw the word W12 on it, “D*mn it, this is Volkswagen’s most expensive model! The top-spec model costs more than 2 million dollars! It is known as the most underrated super luxury car. D*mn, Max, you actually bought the legendary Phaeton! You’re d*mn awesome, man!”On the other hand, the guys who had come in Max’s car and witnessed the entire incident exchanged awkward glances with each other.They didn’t expect Max to literally use Jayden’s story and start to brag. But, of course, they wouldn’t expose Max’s lies as they

The reason why Max was rejecting Joey’s request was simply because he was putting on an act and trying to play hard to get.He was the investment director of a scam fund, just like those thunderous P2P. His job was to do everything within his ability to try to fool those who did not understand this so they would invest all of their money in this so-called fund.In fact, none of these funds would possibly make them any money. As long as anyone invested in the fund, they were doomed to lose all their money and they would not even be able to get back a single penny.When Charlie’s mother-in-law, Elaine, was previously defrauded of her investment, she had also been deceived by this kind of fake funding company. As long as the money had already been entered into their company’s account, it would be completely impossible for them to get back their money.However, what Max was trying to do today was not to get them to invest in his own fund. Instead, he wanted to trick them into giving hi

The man blurted out, “Brother Max, count me in! Count me in!”Mrs. Lewis had not said anything so far but when she heard this, she could not help but say worriedly, “Max, there are a lot of online loan platforms with high interest rates which have been exposed on television nowadays. Their profitable interest rates are really scary. I think that it would be best not to get involved with any online loan platforms if it isn’t a last resort.”Max really did not expect Mrs. Lewis to come out and try to spoil his own plan. After that, he said, “Mrs. Lewis, the interest rates for the online loan platforms that you’ve mentioned are indeed very high. However, the online loan platforms operated by my friends are all very formal and upright. Their interest rates aren’t that high compared to the interest rates of other loan companies. In fact, their interest rates are almost negligible.”After a pause, Max said again, “Actually, under any normal circumstances, I wouldn’t do this kind of thing

Charlie had never been a good person anyway.He would only try to save someone if he pitied them.However, the premise was that the other party should be able to differentiate between the good and bad.However, if the other party did not know what was good for himself, then he would not allow himself to be snubbed despite his good intentions.Since some people were so stubborn, then it would be best for them to experience misfortune for themselves.Anyway, they had made the decision on their own and they would not be able to push the blame on anyone else for their misfortunes in the future.Therefore, Charlie deliberately changed the topic. At this time, he immediately said, “If you want to talk about making money, then I think that you should go back and talk about it in private. The reason why we’re here today is because we want to treat Mrs. Lewis to dinner. We haven’t even ordered any food after sitting here for so long.”Max immediately smiled as he said, “Come, come. Let’s

Max waved his hand before he said, “Yes, of course! Why not? Just serve us the dish!”After he was done speaking, Max continued saying, “Oh, by the way, please bring us two bottles of Ace of Spades champagne!”The waiter replied, “Sir, a bottle of Ace of Spades champagne is $18,888.00. It is also non-refundable once the bottle of champagne is opened. Is that okay?”Max replied immediately, “Yes! Hurry up and serve it as soon as possible!”When they heard that he had just ordered two bottles of champagne which cost $18,888.00 each, all of them could no longer sit still.After doing the calculation, this meal had already cost more than sixty thousand dollars. Even if they would only have to pay for half of the bill for dinner tonight, wouldn’t they still have to pay thirty thousand dollars then?Even if they were to split the bill equally among the rest of them, each of them would still have to pay two thousand dollars each!Harvey was a little embarrassed as he said, “Max, we don

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

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
