Chapter 2279
Jayden knew very well that Charlie had ordered Hebron to be a restroom attendant at the nightclub as his punishment. If he openly helped him, it was the same as going against Charlie.He clearly did not have the guts to do so, hence, the only solution he could think of was to quietly and appropriately look after Hebron, and only by a little bit.For example, if he stumbled upon Hebron at the restroom entrance handing out hand towels, he would give him spare change such as five, ten, or twenty dollars, but not more than fifty, as it would raise Charlie’s suspicion. If Charlie felt that he was intentionally generating revenue for Hebron, he would be welcoming trouble for himself.After Charlie had finished discussing the standard operation of the etiquette company, he turned to Jayden and said, “Jayden, later, take Wendy and Hebron to settle the company management transfer, and also, keep an eye on Hebron and Xavia and make sure they transfer their money to the company’s account.”Ja
Chapter 2280
Wendy looked at Charlie and wanted to say something, but she felt as though there was a lump in her throat that blocked the words from coming out.Seeing her frozen and stunned expression, Charlie directly stuffed the phone in her hands without a word and turned to Jayden and said, “Jayden, in the future, if your friends, business partners, buddies, or whoever need hostesses for their events, remember to look for Wendy here, understand?”Jayden said confidently, “Master Wade, please rest assured that once Miss Wendy starts her company operation, I’ll help her promote her business everywhere! I, Jayden Marquez, have quite a broad connection in Aurous Hill. I’m sure these friends of mine will definitely recruit Miss Wendy’s hostesses for my sake, and her business will prosper in no time!”Then, he hurriedly added, “By the way, Master Wade, tomorrow is the anniversary of several of my nightclubs, and I happen to need to hire a group of hostesses for the event. I’ll need Miss Wendy’s he

After leaving Pearl River Point, Charlie rushed to the wet market.He had spent too much time dealing with Wendy’s matter. If he didn’t hurry to buy the food back to cook, Claire would not be able to eat lunch when she got home from work.Although Aurous Hill was an ancient city, it was getting more and more modernized nowadays. Most of the old buildings were either destroyed, demolished, or renovated to suit the modernization of the city. They had basically turned into skyscrapers and high-rise buildings of the modern metropolitan city.Many traditional craft stores and markets were gradually being replaced by a variety of luxurious shop lots as well as integrated supermarkets.In the early years, there were a lot of roadside barbers who had excellent skills in haircutting and shaving. A simple haircut or shave was only about two to three dollars.However, these ancient and old-schooled barbers had long since disappeared and were now replaced by the dazzling and high-end hair sal

After Uncle Walters had stepped out of the car, he pulled the door of the back seat open and said respectfully to the woman sitting in the car, “Miss Helen, we have arrived.”The woman sitting in the car was none other than Helen.Upon disembarking the plane, she had first taken Jaime and Sophie back to the Dunn family’s old mansion with Uncle Walters to settle down and put away their luggage. Then, she had hurriedly asked Uncle Walters to bring her to see the place where Curtis had lived before he passed away.As for Jaime and Sophie, they each had their own plans in the city.Jaime went to the orphanage to talk about the donations while Sophie was sitting in her room with her laptop, continuing to search for Charlie among the thousands of people in the video.Helen was happy with their own arrangement, though. After all, she was visiting Curtis’s old residence, who was the love of her life. She didn’t feel it was appropriate to bring along her children.At this moment, Helen wa
Chapter 2283
Helen subconsciously substituted herself as Curtis’s wife in her mind, and she instantly felt that her eyes were already filled with tears.She wanted to hold the tears back, but she really would not have expected that big drops of tears would gush out of her eyes because she could not control it or hold it back at all. The tears slid down her wrinkle-free face which seemed to show no signs of aging whatsoever.The old butler who was standing aside could only sigh silently when he saw this.“Sigh… who in the entire capital would not know that the second lady of the Dunn family has been deeply in love with Curtis for so many years…”“However, who would have known that the second lady would still have such deep feelings and affection for him even after Curtis has already passed away nearly twenty years ago…”Ever since time began, love and sentimental affections would leave nothing but everlasting hatred behind.According to the ancient time, regret would be more suited for the wor

As soon as Helen heard this, she suddenly became very excited, and she blurted out, “Help me look further into it. I want to win the bid for this mansion.”The old butler nodded and said, “This mansion occupies a small area and cannot be demolished in the future. So, it is considered a low-quality asset that cannot be circulated. Therefore, it should be relatively easy for us to win the bid for this mansion when the time comes.”“Okay.” Helen replied determinedly, “We have to win the bid for this mansion no matter how much it is going to cost!”After she was done speaking, she hurriedly asked, “Uncle Walters, did you help me to speak to anyone from the judiciary? Can I go in and take a look at the mansion now?”“Yes, yes.” The old butler hurriedly said, “When I was on the phone with them just now, they told me that they will be coming over here for the asset registration and evaluation over the next two days because they will have to collect some materials in preparation for the ju
Chapter 2285
There was about an eighty percent resemblance between Charlie and his father, Curtis’s appearance.As the father and son were both from different generations, there was a big difference in their hairstyle and fashion sense. If Charlie had dressed according to his father’s style back then, the similarity in their appearances could actually make Charlie seem as though he was his father.Therefore, as soon as Helen saw him, she was so shocked, almost as though she had just seen something unbelievable.She was stunned, and apart from feeling extremely shocked, she was also completely at a loss.She did not even know if she was having hallucinations because she missed Curtis too much.Otherwise, why would a man who looked so similar to Curtis suddenly appear before her very eyes?!Moreover, when Curtis had died, he was only in his thirties.The time when Helen and Curtis had had the most contact with each other was the period before Curtis’s marriage. The both of them had barely had

Charlie felt his eyelids twitching wildly. So, he immediately turned his head around without any hesitation at all. After that, he stepped on the accelerator and left in a hurry.When Helen saw Charlie disappearing before her eyes, she hurriedly ran out to chase after him. However, when she came out, Charlie was already gone.She stood at the entrance in a daze as she looked around anxiously. After that, she murmured, “Was I hallucinating?”As she spoke, she hurriedly turned around and asked the old butler who had followed behind her, “Uncle Walters, did you see a young man who looked particularly like Curtis just now?”Although the old butler had only caught a glimpse of Charlie, he could still reply with great certainty, “Miss Helen, I saw a young man riding an electric bike just now. He certainly looks just like Mr. Wade!”As soon as Helen heard this, she was so excited that she was trembling a little as she spoke up and said, “That’s right… that’s right… Uncle Walters, since y
