Rosalie was only twenty-one years old this year and she was actually a year younger than Sophie.Nevertheless, for the past eighteen years since her birth, Sheldon had been unaware of her existence.Rosalie’s biological mother, whose name was Yashita Harker, was the eldest daughter in the Harker family, one of the top four martial arts families. She was one of Sheldon’s bodyguards a long time ago. She wasn’t only beautiful, but she was also a very capable woman and she was an elite among the Schulz family’s bodyguards back then. She was three years older than Sheldon. When Sheldon reached fifteen years of age and had to study overseas, Lord Schulz had purposely hired Yashita from the Harker family as Sheldon’s personal bodyguard to ensure his safety. That year, Yashita had just turned eighteen. Ever since that year, she had been staying by Sheldon's side.She had accompanied him through thick and thin—she was with him during his studies and when he furthered his educatio
She instinctively felt that it was her mother’s wish for her to choose the second option. Since then, Yashita had changed Rosalie’s surname to Schulz and asked someone to recommend her to Sheldon. At first, Sheldon was ignorant about Rosalie’s birth. He only felt that this young lady was very capable and had a very bright future ahead. Moreover, she resembled Yashita very much. Rosalie kept the secret from Sheldon prudently as advised by her mother. Nevertheless, the cunning Lord Schulz was able to detect certain peculiarities. He found out that the way the young lady looked at Sheldon was different.As such, this had alerted him. He was afraid that Rosalie might be a spy sent from his rivals. Therefore, he hired someone to investigate Rosalie’s identity. Pieces of information were investigated and finally, they managed to find out the source from Yashita.When Lord Schulz suspected that Rosalie could be Sheldon’s daughter, he had instructed his subordinates to coll
“To give you some face?”The moment Lord Schulz heard this, he sighed and said, “In the world we live in, everything has its own value. There’s a saying that goes ‘the vengeance of killing someone’s father is more than heaven can bear.’ If you give that person a billion, ten billions, a hundred billions, or even a thousand billions, there is always a price which can move his heart.” He then switched to his main point. “However, the main point is that you’d have to know how much something is worth. Would you take it even if it costs you thousands of billions?”Sheldon fell into silence. Indeed, he wanted to save Rosalie very much, After all, she was his own flesh and blood. Regardless of how merciless he was, he would never want to see her die like this. Besides, she was the Schulz family’s elite and she was still very young. If he were to be able to rescue her, she would still have much to contribute to the Schulz family in the future. After taking all the points int
“Okay,” Lord Schulz replied. “You have to adjust yourself so as not to focus too much on Rosalie. The Schulz family is in deeper trouble. After your return, we will hold a meeting to discuss solutions for the next phase. If we don’t fill up all that we’ve lost, other families will be eyeing us!”“Alright, I understand!”***At that moment, the Schulz family’s notorious news in Japan spread like wildfire over Eastcliff, even reaching the Wade family, and had become the hot topic. Every family was taken aback by the news as no one had expected that the prestigious Schulz family would suffer such tremendous defeat in Japan. Despite the news being a nightmare to the Schulz’s family, it was good news to the rest. The Schulz’s family had overwhelming influence in Eastcliff. Apart from the Wade family, the rest was definitely no match for the Schulz family. The other families were in high spirits because the severe losses suffered by the Schulz family would narrow the gap with
Charlie’s airplane landed safely at Aurous Airport around ten at night. Charlie had not informed Claire about his homecoming tonight as he wanted to give her a surprise. Isaac had already arranged transport for all of them. As soon as they got off the airplane, they boarded their transport respectively and headed home. Albert and Liam left separately, while Issac volunteered himself to send Charlie back to Thompson First, and Charlie did not object to his suggestion. After they had both boarded the car, Issac laughed and talked to Charlie while he drove. “Master Wade, I’m sure the Schulz family will fight hard with us if they know we are the mastermind behind their tragedy.”“It doesn’t matter.” Charlie smiled. “After all, the Schulz family is in deep water now after losing so many people in one shot. They will take a couple of years to restore themselves, so we’ll be safe in the next few years.” “This makes sense…” Isaac then sighed, “Even the notorious kid, Rosalie, f
As for those who were in the same generation as Charlie, they all would normally be greeted as Master and Miss.On the phone, Carmen spoke with a snobbish tone. She opened her mouth and asked, “Isaac, are you in Aurous now?” Isaac hurriedly answered respectfully, “Yes, Miss. I’m in Aurous now.” Carmen hummed, then continued, “Book a presidential suite at Shangri-la Hotel for me tomorrow. After that, you can arrange for transportation to pick me up from the airport. I will fly over there in the morning.” Whenever Carmen traveled, she would usually board a private airplane. So, the departure time was not fixed. If she was able to wake up early, then she would depart earlier. Likewise, if she woke up late, then she would depart later.As soon as Isaac finished hearing her words, he asked in surprise, “Miss, you’re coming over to Aurous?! Are there any other preparations that you’d like me to get ready for you?” Carmen opened her mouth and asked, “What has Charlie been doi
Upon hearing Charlie’s question, Isaac was puzzled too. “Master Wade, to be honest with you, I don’t really know much about your aunt. In fact, with my status, it’s difficult for me to have any direct contacts with the Wade family. Stephen has more contacts with them. Maybe you may want to give him a call?” Charlie shook his hand, then said calmly, “Forget about it, it’s pointless to call him. There’s always a solution to a problem. I’ll act accordingly when I see her.” Isaac then asked, “So, are you having a meal with your aunt tomorrow?”Charlie nodded his head, “I’m going. Let me know when she’s fixed the time. You don’t have to send me there, I’ll go there by myself.” “Noted!” Charlie thought of his aunt’s younger self. In his impression, his aunt was a rather mean woman. When he was five, his aunt married the master of an elite family from Eastcliff and she had given birth to a son. Since then, Charlie had no further updates about his aunt. Charlie asked Isaac, “Is
Charlie laughed and said, “I wanted to give you a surprise!”After he spoke, Claire ran up to him and leaped into his arms.For the past few days when Charlie was in Japan, Claire missed him day and night. Before this, she seldom had this kind of feeling. When Charlie went to Eastcliff, she also missed him but not as much as she did now. Therefore, when she saw Charlie come back, she couldn't hold back and hugged him immediately. Charlie never thought that his wife would hug him straight away in front of her parents. He felt both happy and shy too. So, he told Claire, “Darling, you should wait till we’re in our room to hug. After all, your parents are watching us.” Claire came to her senses and blushed. With shyness and fear, she said, “We just saw from the news that there was a massacre in Japan a few days ago. More than thirty people were reported dead. It’s so terrifying!” Charlie was surprised and asked, “Is this on national news?” ”Yes!” Claire
