As he spoke, Yolden said jokingly, “By the way, Mr. Wilson, you look like you should be about fifty years old, right?”“Yes. I am fifty years old.” Jacob replied as he nodded.Yolden smiled before he said, “In that case, you cannot refer to me as a young man anymore. I am a few years older than you. I am fifty-five years old this year.”“What?!” Jacob asked as he was dumbfounded. “You are fifty-five years old this year?!”“Yes.” Yolden smiled as he said, “I just celebrated my 55th birthday in January this year.”The expression on Jacob’s face suddenly became a little ugly.It was not out of anger, but it was mainly due to Jacob’s inferiority complex.Jacob had initially thought that Yolden should be around forty-five years old. However, he really would not have expected that this guy would actually be five years older than him!At this time, Yolden looked at Matilda before he asked her, “By the way, Matilda, since Mr. Wilson has to go first because he is in a rush, what about y

As he thought about the fact that he had never been to the United States before, Jacob could not help but hate Elaine even more in his heart.He sat in the co-driver seat as he cursed, “That b*tch, Elaine, is the one who ruined my whole life! If it weren’t because of her, I would have been a top student who graduated from a university in the United States! Perhaps I would have also been a professor working at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology or even a professor working at Harvard in the United States!”As he spoke, he continued complaining angrily, “What happened in the end? As soon as I graduated from a local university, I got married to Elaine! I cannot get rid of her at all even up to this day!”Charlie could not help but comfort Jacob as he said, “It’s okay, Dad. There are some things that you cannot simply consider most optimistically. Although you are not in a happy marriage now, at the very least, you are in very good health. If you think about it from another point

At that time, many famous people from Silicon Valley had accompanied him and his mother when they visited Stanford University. They were not well-known at the very beginning but now, all of them were internationally renowned.If it weren’t because of his parents’ accident back then, Charlie would have headed to the United States to study in a university there first. After finishing his MBA at Stanford University, Charlie would have chosen to stay back in Silicon Valley to start his own career there, or he could even return to Oskia to help his father in their family business, then.It was a pity that the car accident that had happened when Charlie was eight years old had completely changed his life trajectory. Charlie was not even given the opportunity to finish his undergraduate degree.Charlie could not help but feel a little sad and melancholic as he thought about this.When Jacob saw the melancholic expression on Charlie’s face, he could not help but ask, “Charlie, what’s wrong

Early the next morning.The earliest high-speed train from Sudbury slowly stopped at the Aurous Hill Railway Station.There were an old man and a young man who stepped out of the business cabin at this time. These two people were none other than the Feng Shui master from the United States, Carvalho, and his great-grandson, Mason.After Mason stepped out of the train, he stretched out his hand to support Carvalho as he asked, “Great-Grandpa, have you already made a divination in advance to figure out if our trip to Aurous Hill this time would be a good or bad trip?”Mason knew his great-grandfather very well. He had already been cautious for so many years and so, he had already long formed a habit of his own. As long as he would be traveling, he would always draw a hexagram, to find out whether it would be a good or bad divination before he sets out on his journey.Carvalho was a little hesitant as he said, “I drew a hexagram between 3 am to 5 am in the morning, but this time, the

The taxi driver’s face flushed red in an instant, and he hurriedly said, “How about one thousand five hundred dollars, then?”Mason wanted to continue haggling with the taxi driver. However, Carvalho interrupted him at this time as he said indifferently, “Alright, then. We will give you two thousand dollars for the ride. Mason, pay up.”Mason subconsciously said, “Grandpa, he just said that he will only charge us one thousand and five hundred dollars…”Carvalho said decisively, “Have you already forgotten what I told you earlier? Pay him the two thousand dollars.”Mason suddenly quivered before he nodded immediately before he counted and took out twenty pieces of hundred-dollar bills from his wallet before handing it over to the driver.In fact, Mason was not a stingy person, nor was he unable to afford two thousand dollars. However, he simply felt that he could not accept it when he obviously knew that the taxi driver was trying to make more money out of them.However, when he t

Claire’s words made Charlie’s heart feel very warm.Over the years, Claire had always been very patient and accommodating toward him. Even when everyone was pointing their fingers at him and despising him over the past few years, Claire had never once complained about him, and she had never had any thoughts of divorcing him at all.Now that Claire was saying this from the bottom of her heart, this made Charlie feel even more touched.However, Charlie knew very well that Claire did not know anything about his true identity, his current wealth, or even the ocean shipping business that he had in mind.He assumed that Claire probably thought that he wanted to start a small-scale business when he mentioned the fact that he wanted to do his own business. She did not know that what he wanted to do was actually a large-scale project that was worth tens of billions of dollars.Charlie did not want to worry Claire too much, so he simply smiled and said, “Okay, I will listen to your advice t

Charlie said, “That will not be necessary. The reason why I am calling you is because I want to ask for your advice on certain matters.”Doris hurriedly said, “Young Master, you are being too polite with me. You can just speak up if you have any questions for me, and I will certainly try my best to answer you.”Charlie replied, “I am interested to venture into the ocean shipping industry. It so happens that the Ito family from Japan would be able to provide me with a lot of help and resources. Besides that, I also have a lot of funds in my own hands. So, I want to find an opportunity to start working on this ocean shipping business.”“However, the current problem that I am facing right now is that I cannot find a suitable person to help me to take charge of this project. So, I want to ask you if you have any good ideas, or if you will be able to temporarily help me to build up this ocean shipping business?”“If you can do so, I will not be stingy with your salary, and I will certai

Charlie truly did not expect that Yolden, whom he had just met yesterday, would actually be such a great and brilliant man in the field of economics and management.Just as he felt as though he had successfully encountered and found Yolden without putting in any effort at all, he could not help but feel sorry for his father-in-law at the same time.He naturally knew that his father-in-law’s feelings toward Aunt Hall came from the bottom of his heart.However, in the final analysis, his father-in-law had always been a coward in front of Elaine. Even though his father-in-law had been constantly thinking about renewing his relationship with Matilda, at the same time, he did not dare to divorce Elaine. If he were to carry on acting this way, his father-in-law and Matilda would never be able to have a happy future together.But Yolden was different.This man was not only highly educated and capable, but he also had an extraordinary appearance and temperament. Even his living habits wer
