Charlie slowly stood up as everyone gaped in disbelief.In an instant, the gaze of the entire banquet hall focused on him.“Charlie, what are you doing! Sit down!” Elaine shrieked in horror.Didn’t he look at where he was at now! None of the fearsome bosses dared to stand up at a moment like this, but what did this loser aim to steal the limelight right now!Gerald and Kevin exchanged glances and whispered, “D*mn, is he really the chairman of Emgrand Group?”Immediately after that, they shook their head earnestly.No way, if he were really the chairman, how could he be scolded by his mother-in-law now?“Loser, what do you think you’re doing? Sit down!” Harold shouted in an annoyed tone on the stage.Charlie glared at him coldly. Then, ignoring everyone’s bewildered and confused glances, he went straight to Doris and whispered in her ear.Doris nodded slightly while listening.The scene made everyone’s hearts skip a beat!Doris Young! The vice-chairman of Emgrand Group! The f

After Charlie ran out the door, he realized that Claire didn’t go far. She was crouching in the corner of a pillar, sobbing in grievance.He approached slowly, took his coat off, draped it on Claire, and said, “Dear, don’t be sad. The director of Wilson Group is just a mediocre position, you can do better than that…”“No, you don’t understand. If I become the director, my parents will be able to stand upright in the family again. How could Grandma go back on her word…” Claire whimpered dejectedly.Charlie continued, “Who knows? Maybe they’ll come begging you to become the director. Look at you with your crybaby face, you won’t be pretty when you go on stage later…”“No way, it’s impossible. Grandma has already made the announcement, there’s no turning back. You go ahead, get back inside. Let me be alone…”At this moment, Lady Wilson and Harold ran out of the hall too.The old lady was huffing and puffing after running, with a large crowd of busybodies behind her to watch the dram

Chapter 23

Everyone returned to their seats while Lady Wilson walked on stage hand-in-hand with Claire.She gave a gentle and sweet smile as she said, “I’m really sorry for what happened earlier, I made a mistake. Actually, Claire is the outstanding descendant of our Wilson family. Thanks to her, we are able to score such a lucrative contract with Emgrand Group. She has made great efforts for such an amazing achievement.”Standing next to them, Doris glanced at the old lady contemptuously. She waved her hand, gesturing at her to stop talking, and said, “Allow me to correct something. Miss Claire has not only made great efforts for this project but she has accomplished it by her own efforts entirely. It has nothing to do with anyone.”She sounded very impolite and rude, but everyone was accustomed to it. With Emgrand Group’s status in the city, even if Doris slapped Lady Wilson right there and then, she dared not say anything.Lady Wilson nodded quickly. “Yes, Miss Young is absolutely right. C

Charlie was totally clueless. He could only imitate the elders around him and protest. As they were chanting, he asked the uncle beside him to understand what was going on.It turned out that this Axel Insurance company was offering some insurance packages with extremely high returns. This group of elders had been attracted by the high returns that they became the company’s clients by buying a lot of insurance products under the name of the company.According to their agreement, today was supposed to be the day they received their dividends, but when these people came to claim their money, they found out that the door was locked tight and only a few employees were left at the door to block them using lame excuses.Eventually, they realized that they were victims of a fraudulent investing scam.No wonder Elaine had urged him to come and help her to protest.Charlie massaged his forehead in agitation. He asked Elaine, “Mom, how much did you buy?”Elaine said frantically, “They said

The call was answered quickly.Elaine hurriedly said, “Hello, is it, Kevin? Hi, I’m Claire’s mother…”Ever since meeting Claire at the banquet, her beauty knocked him off his feet. He couldn’t get her out of his mind.He was frustrated as to how he was supposed to approach Claire when coincidentally, her mother called him. He figured that Elaine must be in some kind of trouble and of course, he would not miss the chance to woo her.Thus, he put up a sincere tone and said, “Auntie, are you in any trouble?”“Well, there is something I need you to help me with,” Elaine hurriedly said, “Kevin, some old friends and I have bought some participating policies from an insurance company called Axel and we literally used all our money to buy it. However, the company isn’t paying us our dividends now and they don’t even want to return us our money! Could you find a way to help me get the money back, please?”Kevin was delighted upon hearing it, figuring that it was time for him to perform. H

“Yes! If my daughter can marry him, I can die in peace!”“Phew, stop dreaming! Even if you are dead, he will not like your daughter!”As soon as Elaine saw him, she rushed to his side and said earnestly, “Hey, Kevin, you’re here finally! I was so anxious waiting for you!”Indeed, it was Kevin.Kevin said with a smile, “Auntie, I’m very sorry to have kept you waiting!”“Oh no, Kevin, you’re too kind. I think it had taken you only ten minutes to get here, you came so fast!”“As soon as I heard that you’re in trouble, I drove over quickly. I even ran some red lights on the way here.”Elaine looked very smug, but asked with concern, “Will it get you into trouble for running the red lights?”“No,” Kevin said indifferently, “The guys in the traffic department are all my acquaintances. A phone call is all I need to settle the traffic tickets.”Kevin cleared his throat and started again, “Anyway, back to your business. How much have you been scammed out of in total?”Elaine sighed de

Just as Elaine was extremely thrilled, Kevin announced loudly, “Uncles and aunties, relax, I’ll go speak to them now. Please wait for my good news!”Elaine felt that with Kevin’s presence here, they were the most invincible of them all, so she blurted excitedly, “Kevin, I’ll go with you!”Charlie quickly interjected, “Mom, I think you’d better stay away from it. If Kevin can’t solve the problem, you might get into trouble!”“Bah!” Elaine growled angrily. “How dare you doubt Kevin’s abilities, you loser?!”The other seniors expected that Kevin could help them get back their money. Now that Charlie was singing a different tune, they were irked and irritated by him.Facing the resentful glare and murmur, Charlie said flatly, “Mom, it’s better for you to wait here. It’s best to be a bystander.”Elaine found his voice disgusting and she immediately cursed, “Shut your stinky mouth! This is not a place for you to speak!”Pompousness and arrogance were written all over Kevin’s face. He

Meanwhile, in Axel Insurance’s chairman’s office, the owner, Axel Jordan, was serving a man in his forties in a respectable manner.His face was radiant with a wide smile. He retrieved a bank card from the drawer and handed it to the man with respect and said, “Don Albert, there are thirty million dollars in this card and the pin number is your birthday. This is the bonus for you, please check.”The middle-aged man was dressed in a smart suit. His face was quite rough and haggard but his predator-like eyes were as sharp as a lion.If there were other people present, they would definitely recognize the man immediately.He was Don Albert Rhodes!Everyone in Aurous Hill knew that Albert was the mafia boss of the underworld and no one dared to mess with him!Albert looked at Axel and said with a satisfied smile, “Axie, not bad. You’re pretty tactful, I’m impressed!”Axel said in an anxious tone, “Don Albert, what do we do about the old folks who are protesting out there?”Albert sa

At this moment, Kevin was standing in front of Axel Insurance’s main door with a proud face.He knew that today was the best opportunity for him to show off himself in front of Claire’s mother. He must seize the moment to prove his worth!If he could win her mother’s heart, she would be his in no time!When the time came, he could finally be with Claire Wilson, the most beautiful woman in Aurous Hill. He was in jitters as he thought of it!Hence, he announced in a loud voice, “Uncles and aunties, don’t worry. The boss will refund everyone!”Everyone cheered with joy and excitement upon hearing his statement, wide smiles were plastered on their faces.Everyone but Charlie, who looked at Kevin with a sneer. That dude was too full of himself right now, he wouldn’t even know how he would end up being later.Just when Kevin held his chin high and enjoyed the cheers, someone suddenly pushed open Axel Insurance’s door from the inside.Later, Axel and a middle-aged man in a smart suit

Just as Kevin finished his so-called intimidating threat, a studly man behind Don Albert abruptly stepped forward, grabbed Kevin by his hair, and slapped him multiple times on his face!“God d*mn it! How dare you raise your voice at Don Albert! Do you wish to die?!”Then, he grabbed Elaine and slapped her across the face, and shouted, “D*mn you old coot, how dare you to insult Don Albert! I’ll tear that stinky mouth off your face!”Boom!It felt as if Kevin and Elaine were struck by lightning!What?The man in a suit in front of them was the fearsome Don Albert of Aurous Hill?Yet they had ridiculed him ignorantly just now…Soon, blood drained their face, looking as pale as two sheets of paper. Cold sweat covered their forehead and their bodies shook uncontrollably in fear.Kevin was quick to react. He threw himself on the floor, knelt in front of Don Albert, and cried as he pleaded, “Don, I’m sorry, it’s my bad! Sorry for not recognizing you, sorry for insulting you! I have n
