As he thought about the future collaboration between both sides in the future, Charlie did not hide the truth from Sophie. He walked out of the house and went into the courtyard as he replied with a voice message: “That’s right. Your elder brother came to Emgrand Group today. He made it seem as though he wanted to meet with Doris on the surface, but in fact, he actually wanted to pry and look into my identity.”Sophie sent another voice message to follow up: “Then, is the reason why he is suddenly in this state also because of you?”Charlie admitted it frankly: “That’s right. He asked people to investigate and look into my wife’s car license plate. This behavior makes me feel very dissatisfied. That is not all, but he even wanted to find out about my true identity. Since he personally wanted to make things difficult for himself, I could only fulfill his request, then.”Sophie hurriedly pleaded as she said: “Benefactor, my elder brother has very little social experience, and sometime

...Just as Sophie was being enlightened by Charlie’s well-thought-out intentions, Quinn had just finished her last dress rehearsal.Quinn, who was on stage, had already sung all the songs that she would be singing in the concert tomorrow night three times repeatedly. However, the good thing was that she would not need to sing too hard because the main purpose of the rehearsal was to confirm all the procedures and details of the performance, especially so for the lighting, sound, choreography, as well as the live accompaniment of the band and backup dancers.After all the processes had been determined without any flaws or mistakes, Quinn was already extremely confident about the concert tomorrow.Dorothy walked up onto the stage and handed a bottle of water to Quinn as she exclaimed, “Quinn, the stage visual and auditory effects this time is really great! It has not only surpassed all of your previous concerts, but in my memory, I don’t even remember ever seeing any concerts with s

When Charlie heard this, he could not help but feel a little moved in the depths of his heart.He was not moved because of Elaine’s attitude. After all, Elaine had always been the kind of person who was easily swayed, and she would do anything for anyone who could give her money.What really touched Charlie was Claire’s sincerity. It would certainly be much more tiring and tedious to celebrate his birthday at home as compared to going out to a restaurant to eat some ready-made food. The fact that his wife had this thought and intention proved that she truly placed utmost importance on his birthday.Moreover, over the past few years when he was not welcomed at home because he was not successful and did not have any future prospects at all, Claire would still remember his birthday. She would always secretly buy him a cake and bring him out to an affordable restaurant so that the both of them could enjoy a quiet meal together.Thinking back on these matters, Charlie was filled with

Elaine asked curiously, “Oh! That Calligraphy and Painting Association of yours will be paying you a salary now?”Jacob had an arrogant look on his face as he said, “It is not just paying me a salary, but it’s even a pretty substantial amount!”As he spoke, Jacob said again, “Look, I am the executive vice-president. So, from this month onward, my monthly base salary will be twelve thousand dollars. It is the second-highest salary that is being paid in the entire Calligraphy and Painting Association after the president, Mr. Bay!”After that, Jacob then said, “This is only the base salary that will be given to us by Aurous Hill city. In fact, there are many private enterprises that want to take up the business of cultural development. So, they have donated a lot of funds and docked a lot of resources to the Calligraphy and Painting Association. The Calligraphy and Painting Association has recently undertaken quite a lot of calligraphy and painting activities. So, the days in the Calli

However, the one person that Charlie did not expect to wish him, was his grandfather, Jeremiah. Even an old man in his sixties was actually keeping track of the time to send him a text message to wish him a happy birthday at 12.00 am. This was something that Charlie truly did not expect.And his aunt, Carmen, who had suffered various sufferings in front of Charlie, also surprisingly sent him a text message wishing him a happy birthday. She even apologized for what she had done before, hoping that she would be able to get Charlie’s forgiveness.When Claire saw Charlie receiving various text messages continuously, she could not help but feel a little surprised. She did not look at the content of these text messages, but she simply guessed that the people who had sent these text messages should all be Charlie’s customers.When Elaine, who was sitting opposite them, saw Charlie receiving all kinds of text messages continuously, she could not help but smile as she said emotionally, “Si
