Even if he was still the former Christopher, he couldn’t go up against Charlie in any way.He wasn’t sure when and how Charlie had become so skillful and amazing in martial arts that he could defeat the Wilson family’s brawny bodyguards. He definitely couldn’t withstand Charlie’s beating!Dejected, Christopher contained his fury and said in a low voice, “Jacob, it’s my fault for being so rude earlier. I’m sorry, but could you please ask Elaine to see me? I have something important that I must ask her.”Jacob was utterly happy right now. He wanted to just hug his darling son-in-law and kiss him! He had been so frustrated by Christopher’s provocation when suddenly, Charlie slapped him! It was such a refreshing scene!Smiling gleefully inside, Jacob donned an emotionless face and said, “Brother, did you and Hannah want to buy a villa two days ago?”“How did you know?” asked Christopher suspiciously.“Elaine told me. She was at her friend’s house playing mahjong when you and Hannah

Christopher was trembling with anger at Jacob’s deliberate sarcasm!Indeed, he occasionally saw such news on virtual news portals. In fact, he admitted that he had even imagined such a scene before. He imagined that one day when he was super rich and bumped into a young and beautiful girl who told him that she didn’t want to work anymore, he would just send her an address and let her come to him…Of course, it was nothing but a figment of his imagination. He had never had the courage nor the ability to turn it into a reality.However, when Jacob talked about his wife like that, for some reason, a very vivid and realistic picture showed up in his mind!In the imaginative picture, there was a young man leaning against his wife’s embrace and calling her name sweetly…Christopher was extremely agitated, wondering how many times his wife had cheated on him. He stomped furiously and cursed, “Jacob, don’t you dare mock my wife like that! Your wife isn’t any better! You should be thankful

At this moment, the gleeful Jacob said, “Oh yes, dear, give me twenty grand. I want to have a get-together tomorrow.”“A get-together?” Elaine asked nervously, “Why do you need twenty grand for a get-together?! Did you invite the president?”“I joined the Aurous Calligraphy and Painting Association, I’ve told you that, remember? Now, there’s a vacancy for the executive director of the association and I want it! So, I’d like to invite the chairman and other directors to dinner to enhance our relationship.”Then, he added with a smug look, “If I’m elected as one of the executive directors, I’ll be popular in the antique social group in the city!”Elaine shouted angrily, “Are you crazy? Why do you need twenty grand for a dinner? Do you really think we own a money printer at home? No, I don’t allow you to!”Jacob hurriedly said, “Oh, dear, I just want to climb the ladder one step at a time! Once I become the director, I will have more opportunities to get in touch with the rare and pr
Chapter 623
As Charlie was preparing dinner, Donald and his son, Sean, also left the Moore family mansion and drove to The Heaven Springs.Donald has invited some of the more powerful and prestigious people in Aurous Hill to attend the banquet dinner that he would be hosting at The Heaven Springs tonight. On one hand, he wanted to find more clues relating to his youngest son, Kian’s sudden illness, and on the other hand, he wanted to lay down a little foundation for the Webb family in Aurous Hill.Although the Webb family was the top family in the South Region, this did not mean that they had sufficient control and power over the entire South Region.The Webb family’s base camp was in Sudbury, and this meant that they had extraordinary control and power in the Sudbury area. However, since the Moore family’s base camp was in Aurous Hill, this meant that the Webb family’s influence and power in Aurous Hill were relatively worse than the Moore family.As these wealthy and powerful families in the

Besides that, even if the girls admired him or were interested in him, their family might not necessarily be able to accept him into their families.Donald sighed before he said, “I received news from home that your younger brother’s condition is not very optimistic now.”“What’s wrong?” Sean hurriedly asked. “Did his condition deteriorate any further?”“No, that did not happen.” Donald continued speaking, “His illness is the same as it was before. He still has to eat shit every hour. However, it seems as though your brother’s emotional and mental condition is in very bad shape. In the past, he would feel like committing suicide if he did not get to eat shit every hour. However, now, whenever he has finished eating shit and regained his consciousness, he would feel like committing suicide. He said that it is too painful and pointless for him to continue living like this.”Donald could only sigh after he was done speaking. He really did not know who Kian had offended and why he woul

”Oh, my God!”Sean could not stop himself from exclaiming out loud when he heard this. “Don Albert actually used a knife to carve the words ‘pathetic jerk’ on Cain’s son’s forehead?! You would not be exaggerating if you said that there was a deep hatred between them!”“Yes.” Donald smiled slightly before he said, “I guess Cain and his son can only dream of killing Don Albert and getting rid of him in their dreams!”When he heard his father’s words, Sean could not help but ask, “Dad, since you know that there is an enmity between Cain and Don Albert, why did you still invite Cain to come for the banquet dinner tonight?”Donald smiled again as he said, “Don’t you think that this is an opportunity for us to make use of Cain? He is nothing but a stray dog who wants to bite but does not dare to open his mouth. What he is currently lacking is a host that will back him up and support him so that he can open his mouth and bite with confidence in the future.”At this time, Sean replied, “D

Before their car had even stopped properly, Sean looked out the window and saw a middle-aged man hurriedly rushing forward to greet them from outside the car. At this time, the middle-aged man also saluted both the father and son respectfully.Donald nodded slightly at him before he told Sean, “This is the Cain Lloyd I was telling you about.”Sean was slightly surprised.As soon as the car stopped, Cain came forward in a hurry as he opened the car door for Donald. After that, he quickly greeted them with a smile on his face, “Cain Lloyd at your service, Mr. Webb and young master Webb…”Donald nodded before he said, “You’ve arrived rather early today.”Cain hurriedly replied, “I truly would never have expected you to invite me to come for your banquet dinner tonight. I was afraid that I would be late if I did not come earlier.”Cain originally would not have the opportunity to come to The Heaven Springs in his lifetime.This was because Albert not only engraved the words ‘patheti

Donald was very satisfied with Cain’s attitude. He nodded slightly before he walked into The Heaven Springs.Albert had already arranged for the employees of The Heaven Springs to make all the necessary preparations and prepare all the dishes for the banquet dinner that night. At the same time, all the other people who were invited to the banquet had also arrived early, and they had already been waiting for Donald for quite a long time.Albert, Graham, and Zeke had the same attitude toward the Webb family. They were not here to flatter Donald or to curry any favor with him, but they also had no intention of offending him and the Webb family.This was the reason why they accepted the Webb family invitation to attend this banquet dinner tonight.In fact, the three of them had already thought everything through. They had even met up in private to discuss this matter amongst themselves. They decided to simply give the Webb family some face and to be polite and respectful toward Donald,
