Chapter 2178
After all, Charlie was known as the true dragon. Therefore, Reuben dared not neglect him at all. Seeing Charlie arrive alone, he immediately stepped forward and said to him respectfully, “Master Wade, you’re here!” Charlie nodded slightly. With a tinge of regret, he said, “Reuben, I’m sorry. In regards to Jasmine’s case, I’ve tried my best…” Charlie purposely said “tried my best”, these three words, but there was no response. On the other hand, when Reuben heard these three words, he immediately assumed a scenario where a patient was brought to the hospital with little hope of survival, and these words were spoken to the patient’s family. Thus, in his mind, he added elements that were not meant by Charlie. He quietly mulled, ‘Indeed, it looks like Charlie couldn’t find Jasmine’s whereabouts. Moreover, Charlie is now back in Oskia, so he must’ve given up on searching. This means Dad and I can finally have peace of mind.’ Reuben’s heart was invigorated, but he pret

Once the female secretary finished her opening address, the crowd gave a roaring round of applause. The ten board members of Moore Group entered through the side door one by one. Charlie did not know these people who walked in front except for the last two, which were Reuben, and his father, Tyler. Despite entering last, the central seat on the podium was empty and reserved for Tyler. After he went on stage, he straightaway sat in the central seat. Just as he was seated, he saw a person who was seated in the VIP seat in the first row—Charlie. Seeing Charlie, Tyler became a bit nervous inside, just like Reuben. As the saying goes, a thief was bound to have a guilty conscience. Tyler was also worried that all his evil deeds would be exposed one day. He was especially scared of Charlie, because to him, Charlie posed the biggest threat. If his deeds were to be exposed one day, he would not be scared of the police looking for him. Instead, h

Now, Tyler himself had acknowledged this fact. Thus, this matter was cast in stone and could be regarded as official news to be announced to the public right away. However, at this moment, Charlie suddenly asked coldly, “Mr. Moore, Ms. Jasmine Moore is only lost at the moment. There is no confirmation of her death. I would like to ask. If Ms. Jasmine comes back safely one day, would you return the position of chairman to her?” Tyler thought that today would be the easiest transition of power. Moreover, he also felt that he had convinced the entire board. The only thing left was to announce it to the public. Under these circumstances, it would be impossible for anyone to cause trouble. However, he would never have thought that Charlie would actually trouble him suddenly at this moment. Despite feeling very furious in his heart, he still answered politely, “Don’t worry, everybody. During the board meeting, we agreed on a basic principle. Even though I was v

The moment Jasmine appeared, everyone was struck dumb except Charlie. No one would have imagined that Jasmine, who was missing with no news about her life and death, would suddenly appear at the press conference. Just a second ago, Moore Group had just announced Tyler as the new chairman after a board meeting because the company could not confirm whether Jasmine was still alive. However, the next second, Jasmine was suddenly back! Almost no one could accept this huge twist. Even the movies were not scripted this way! The one who could not accept this reality the most was naturally the new chairman of Moore Group—Tyler. At this moment, Tyler looked at Jasmine. He was so angry that eye sockets were about to crack open! His eyes goggled widely, his eyeballs reddened. At the same time, blood veins crawled all over them. That pair of eyes almost fell out of its eye sockets. He would never have dreamt that Jasmine could return from Japan ali

Under the gaze of the crowd, Jasmine strode toward the podium. At this moment, many journalists reached out their microphones. There was one journalist who sounded breathless and crazed as he asked, “Ms. Moore, Ms. Moore. I’m a journalist from the South Region Financial Times. I would like to know, how did you escape alive from the accident over the cliff in Japan?” Jasmine stopped walking, smiled, and answered, “When the accident happened, fortunately, I wasn’t in the car.” Another person asked, “Ms. Moore, since you were not in the car, after so many days, the Japanese police were still looking for you, so why didn’t you show up?” Jasmine replied lightly, “The reason I didn’t show up was because I suspected the accident had purposely been set up by people who were out to get me. For my safety, I decided not to show up.” Once these words came out, the crowd gasped! Jasmine’s accident had been purposely set up?! If this was true, that meant there were p

At this moment, Tyler was still under the impression that what he had done had not been exposed. At the same time, he mumbled to himself, “It doesn’t matter if that d*mned Jasmine has come back. Now that that old thing has lost his mind, she will lose her only support in Moore Group, and I have all the chances in the world to trap her in the future!”At this time, Jasmine looked at Tyler and asked in a crisp voice, “Uncle Tyler, I heard that the board of directors elected you as the new chairman because I was not here, am I right?”Tyler rubbed his hands rather awkwardly and forced a smile. “Haha… I… Uh… Everyone agreed that the company couldn’t be without a leader, so they elected me to replace you.”Jasmine nodded and said seriously, “In that case, I thank you for supporting me and the company while I wasn’t here.”With that, she diverted the subject and asked, “Uncle, you just said that if I came back, you would voluntarily return the chairman position to me. That’s still vali

Charlie smiled faintly. “Don’t worry, Mr. Moore. There will be no confidential matter discussed in today’s board meeting.”“Uh…” Hearing this, Tyler became even more nervous, and his heart began beating violently.He thought, ‘What the hell does he mean by that? Why does he sound like he knows everything?’Just then, the door of the conference hall was pushed open, and more than thirty people in black barged in.The directors of the Moore Group were all startled by this shocking scene.Tyler shouted nervously, “Who are you?! Who let you in? Where are the security guards? Hey, come and kick them out!”Reuben also hurriedly yelped, “You’d better leave right now or we’ll call the police!”Charlie, who hadn’t spoken much, said indifferently, “Tyler, I asked them to come. Do you have a problem with that?”Horrified, Tyler blurted out, “M-Master Wade, you asked them to come? Why?!”Charlie replied emotionlessly, “They are here to support Jasmine. She has just returned to Moore Group
Chapter 2185
When Tyler and Reuben saw Hashimoto Kazumi, they were so frightened that their legs turned to jelly.At this moment, they realized that their schemes and plots had come to light, otherwise Charlie would not have brought Jasmine as well as Kazumi back to Oskia.After all, Jasmine’s fatal incident in Japan was entirely a private sordid affair between the three of them.Tyler and Reuben had wanted Jasmine dead so that they could inherit the entire Moore family. Kazumi, on the other hand, wanted to gain greater personal benefits by cooperating with them.A payoff of hundreds of millions of dollars and at least ten percent shares were enough for Kazumi to take the risk.Until Kazumi appeared, they had been using him as their firewall. To them, as long as Kazumi had not yet gotten into trouble, they were absolutely safe.However, never in their wildest dream did they expect that Charlie would move this human firewall from Japan to right in front of their noses!At this moment, Tyler a
