Some of them would even sell their own bodies for money.However, Quinn was an exception.Money had no real practical meaning to her.Furthermore, after she had reunited with Charlie, Quinn had already made plans to quit the entertainment circle for good.She wanted to quit the entertainment circle first. After that, once Charlie had already dealt with his current marital issues, she would then marry Charlie before placing all of her focus and attention on her husband and children at home.She had even thought of announcing her withdrawal from the entertainment circle at the concert site when she reached the final stage of her concert tour. She would stay away from all music, film, and television dramas and programs in the future.Therefore, Quinn did not have any interest at all in the kind of collaboration that Sophie had just mentioned.So, Quinn replied bluntly, “I am sorry, Sophie. I have no plans to look for a sponsor for my concert tour. Besides, the relevant promotional

As soon as Jaime heard Quinn’s promise, he was immediately overjoyed.He quickly turned around to look at his sister, Sophie, with a face that was filled with admiration.At this moment, Jaime was genuinely filled with admiration and praise for his sister, Sophie.He knew that although his sister was a few years younger than him, she was even wittier and smarter compared to him!Using charity as a means to persuade Quinn into accepting his collaboration proposal and sponsorship was a solution that Sophie had already come up with earlier.Sophie had already analyzed Quinn thoroughly. She was not short of money, nor was she short of love and affection or even suitors. Therefore, it would not be easy for any ordinary man to try and impress her.Don’t talk about pursuing her. Even if anyone wanted to collaborate with her, it would certainly be a very difficult task.Therefore, Sophie felt that if her brother wanted to impress Quinn, he would have to find another way to impress her.

Quinn smiled slightly before she said, “I will thank Mr. Schulz on behalf of the orphans in Aurous Hill, then.”Jaime hurriedly waved his hand and said, “No, no. This is what I should do. What’s more, I am simply winning favor and influence using this money that I am going to donate. After all, this money was originally intended to be used as a sponsorship fee. So, the person that they should thank is not me, but you, Miss Golding.”Quinn could not help but smile as she said, “Mr. Schulz, since our collaboration details have already been decided, let’s proceed with this after the New Year. I still have something to do now, so I will have to excuse myself.”As soon as Sophie heard this, she quickly stood up as she smiled and said, “Quinn, since you are busy, we will not bother you and keep you any longer!”Quinn nodded slightly before she said, “In that case, I will get someone to see the both of you out first.”After she was done speaking, Quinn called for one of the maids as she
Chapter 1989
Jaime and Sophie were on the way home. Jaime was driving, and Sophie was sitting in the co-driver seat.It was obvious that Jaime was in a very good mood, and he was smiling from ear to ear.When she saw this, Sophie smiled helplessly as she said, “Brother, since I have already done this for you, you must help me find our benefactor!”Jaime did not hesitate as he blurted out, “Sophie, you can certainly rest assured that I will definitely go all out to help you. Even if I have to watch the surveillance videos until I go blind, I will make sure that I help you find our benefactor!”Sophie nodded in satisfaction as she said, “At least you have a conscience!”At this time, Jaime could not help but sigh as he said, “Sigh… there are truly too many surveillance videos for us to go through. Only both of us have seen how our benefactor looks like, so we cannot ask anyone else for help at all. I really do not know how much time the both of us will have to take to go through all of that info
Chapter 1990
To make matters worse, since the New Year was coming soon, many employees had already applied for leave to go home for the holiday. The passenger flow in the supermarket had doubled, but the number of employees working was lesser than usual. Therefore, there was a shortage for all of the various jobs in the supermarket.There was a shortage of salespeople, cleaners, and also cashiers. Even the employee responsible for weighing the groceries was far from enough. Anyone who wanted to weigh their groceries would have to wait at least ten minutes in line.When Jacob saw so many people in the supermarket, he was very frustrated, and he said, “Sigh! We should have come out earlier to buy the goods. If that was the case, I could be lying down at home and watching television right now instead. I would not need to come in here and join in the crowd!”“That’s right.” Charlie smiled helplessly before he said, “I wanted to come here yesterday, but Mom got hurt.”Jacob hummed as he said, “Don’t
Chapter 1991
The commotion immediately attracted Jacob’s attention. He was so bewildered and astonished when he saw his mother.After a long moment, he turned to Charlie and asked, “Hey, Charlie, i-is that my mother? That is my mother, right?”Charlie smiled faintly and said, “Yes, Dad, that is indeed Lady Wilson.”Jacob gaped in shock. “W-Why is she wearing a staff vest?! Did she come to work here?”Charlie nodded. “It seems like it.”Jacob said, baffled, “Something’s wrong. Didn’t Donald Webb give the Wilson family a capital injection? He even bought them the Thompson First villa. They should be living a very prosperous and comfortable life now!”Jacob didn’t know what had happened over the past two days. He didn’t know that Elaine had been kidnapped by his own brother and nephew, and he didn’t even know that Donald had surrendered a considerable part of his family assets and become Albert’s slave. So, of course, he didn’t know how miserable the Wilson family had become over the past two da
Chapter 1992
Charlie asked, “So, Dad, do you have any plans?”He did not know what Jacob was thinking at this moment. Seeing Jacob’s sorrowful expression, he assumed that Jacob might want to lend Lady Wilson a helping hand.Jacob simply sighed and said, “As her son, it breaks my heart to see my own mother living such a hard-knock life and doing such a tedious job. I should not just sit on my hands and watch.”The next second, he closed his eyes and said, “However, I didn’t see anything! It was nothing but an illusion!”With that, he quickly turned around and said, “Charlie, let’s go buy some fish, shrimp, meat, and eggs. As for the vegetables, let’s buy them at another supermarket. What do you think?”Knowing Jacob’s intention, Charlie immediately smiled and said, “Yes, Dad. I’m thinking the same thing. The vegetables in this supermarket are not so fresh. Let’s go to the wet market later to buy the vegetables! First, let’s go see if they have a larger Boston lobster, and we’ll buy some back!”
Chapter 1993
Charlie also saw Hannah.When he laid eyes on Hannah’s green vest, he felt that it was somewhat comical. He started wondering what she looked like when she was working at the coal mine back then and if she was given a uniform. He even started to imagine what she would look like in the coal mine uniform.Hannah was feeling very frustrated now, shooting a vengeful glare at Charlie.Charlie was the one who had brought all these miseries upon her. It was he who had ruined it all when she tried to spring a trap on Elaine.That was not all.The worst part was that he had donated all her money to charity and then sent her to the coal mine!When she thought of her wretched moments in the coal mine, she couldn’t help cursing, “This d*mned Charlie! He sent me to that hell hole! I gave up so much when I was there, but what I got in return were STDs and a child! If it were not for him, I wouldn’t be so miserable today…”The more she thought about it, the more agitated she felt toward Charli
