“Ahh!” Claire exclaimed and realized that Charlie had just given her a sudden attack. She quickly pretended to be frightened and said, “Ah! I am so kind to feed the little puppy, but I got bitten instead!” Charlie opened his mouth. As he ate the strawberry, he mumbled, “If I am the little puppy, what are you?” Claire gave a lighthearted hum and answered, “Since I am the one who fed the little puppy, surely I am the little puppy’s owner!” Charlie laughed, “If I am the little puppy, then you are the bone which I hold in my mouth.” Claire laughed, “That’s so ‘nice’ of you to describe me as a bone…” Charlie replied seriously, “Don’t you know that bones are most protected by little puppies? Even if the sky drops, the little puppy would not let go. If anyone dares to snatch the bone, the little puppy will go all out to defend it!” Seeing Charlie’s serious expression, Claire was touched. She said shyly, “If that is the case, I will forcefully be the bon

The one thing Charlie was most grateful about Claire was that ever since she had gotten married to him, she had never despised his background.After all, a person who had lost both parents since he was eight years old, grew up in the orphanage with a high school level of education, and a loser who had nothing, would surely not be an ideal candidate for a marriage partner.However, Claire, who was the prettiest woman in Aurorus Hill, had decided to marry him without any complaints. To date, it had been four years.Throughout these four years, many people had instigated and tried to force Claire to divorce him. Nonetheless, she had not been influenced, not even once.Just from this point alone, Charlie was very grateful to her.Most recently, Charlie also thought of finding opportunities to tell Claire about his background. Nevertheless, he hesitated for quite some time whenever he thought of his unfulfilled revenge for his parents and the undiscovered reasons for his parents’ death

For the past hundreds of years, there were hearsays of the Rothschild family in Europe and North America.Some said that they ruled half of Europe, while others said that they ruled not only half of Europe, but even half of America.Their presence in Europe and America was almost everywhere—the most profitable bank was theirs, the most profitable oil refinery enterprise was theirs, the largest shipping consortium was theirs, even the largest military group was theirs.During the Industrial Revolution, this family was the one who had pushed for and controlled the railway transport in Europe and America. As for gold, diamond, and other important mineral resources, those were their traditional areas of strength.Based on rough estimates, the entire family’s asset value was worth at least trillions and above.This meant that based on the asset scale, one Rothschild was ten times of the Wade family. Even more terrifying was that as an established Jew, Rothschild had strong politic

This time, Charlie wanted to give them the medicinal pills, so for sure, they would be very happy. Once Travis, who was from Lancaster, heard of the news that Charlie was inviting guests, he immediately asked Harvey, Charlie’s friend from the orphanage, to drive him to Aurous Hill. Travis had quite a lot of properties in Aurous Hill. Thus, he planned to stay a night in Aurous Hill just in case any unforeseen circumstances might delay his journey. The reason for prioritizing this was mainly because, in his eyes, this opportunity was too rare. Emgrand Group’s Doris was the only one who had not received Graham’s notification.It was not that Graham had forgotten about her. The main reason was that Graham did not have Doris’s contact information. Before Charlie had taken over Emgrand Group, Doris had been the Vice President of Emgrand Group all this while. She was not a young lady from some big family nor was she a rich kid with power. Instead, it w

At this moment, at Aurous Hill’s People Hospital in the in-patient department.As the best-integrated hospital in Aurous Hill and even in the entire district, it was full of people at any time.There were no empty beds no matter which department it was.Not only was it full of patients, but many other patients were still lining up at home, waiting for beds, and seeking treatment.In the intensive care unit for nephrology, an unconscious man lay on the bed with tubes poking out from his whole body. He looked to be around fifty years old.Beside the bed, there was a middle-aged woman. This woman’s features were very similar to Doris.Outside the intensive care unit, there was a small living room and resting area for family members. After all, this was the intensive care unit with the best criteria. Hence, the interior structure was similar to a hotel suite.At this moment, in the living room stood two young people—a man and a woman.The woman was the Vice-President of Emgrand Gro

“Doris, as long as you are willing to leave Emgrand Group and join my company as the Vice-Chairman and also be my lover, I will immediately ask someone to use my private jet to bring the kidney to you. If you say yes to me today, Uncle will have a new kidney tomorrow. What do you think?” “Shameless!” Grinding her teeth, Doris said angrily, “Edmund, how dare you take advantage of me! Moreover, you are already married with kids! How could you disappoint your wife and kids with those kinds of actions?!” Curling his lips, Edmund answered with a carefree attitude, “For me, marriage is just part of fulfilling my family’s mission. Whoever my family wishes me to marry, I will marry her. As long as I’ve married the woman they have chosen, they will not interfere with my private life.” Then, Edmund continued with an oblivious sneer, “As for the kids, I don’t really care about them. They are still young. Wait till they are older, I will make them realize that money is more
Chapter 2321
Looking at Edmund’s back as he left, Doris was so mad that she was shivering as her tears flowed down her face. Two years ago, Doris’s father had had a severe kidney infection. It had been hard to find a suitable kidney because his blood type was RH negative. At that time, Doris had done a match test, but she was not suitable. Soon after, due to a stroke of good luck, one of her relatives had found a suitable match in Southeast Asia, and the other party had also been willing to donate. Subsequently, Doris had spent a million Oskian dollars to help her dad solve his kidney problem. Initially, she had thought that after finding the kidney, her dad would live for another twenty or thirty years with proper care. However, she never would have thought that just after two years, her dad’s replacement kidney would have a serious rejection response, and the kidney functions started to drop tremendously.Before the Oskian New Year, he had been fine. However, afte

Just then, someone pushed the room door open gently.A middle-aged woman came out and asked, “Doris, has Edmund left?”This woman was Doris’s mother, Faith Saunders.Doris quickly wiped away her tears and turned toward the woman as she nodded. “Yes, Mum. He has left.”Then, she hurriedly asked, “Mum, how’s Dad?”Faith sighed. “Still the same—unconscious.”Noticing that Doris had just cried not too long ago, she swiftly stepped forward and asked in concern, “Doris, why are you crying? What did Edmund say to you? Didn’t he give you his word that the kidney has been found? What did he say after that?”Doris sighed and whispered, “Yes, the kidney has been found, but he wanted me to work for him and be his lover…”“What?!” With her eyes wide open, Faith blurted out, “This… isn’t this person your former classmate? How could he be so shameless?!”Doris answered in extreme frustration, “I also didn’t know that he would become like this after a few years of graduation.”Faith hurried
