Chapter 7305
Jacob and Elaine didn't take photos or talk loudly to keep up appearances and looked like they always flew first-class.That in turn pleased Charlie. Fortunately, the conflict ended before they boarded their flight, and now there was peace and quiet.The flight lasted a handful of hours until they landed in Male, the capital of the Maldives.Male was a small island, so the airport was small—but there were private jets and other luxury aircraft as far as one's eyes could see.As a globally renowned vacation spot, the economy was modest and the average GDP was nothing to brag about, but the rich and privileged were always drawn here.Naturally, they loved this place because everything was great here—the scenery, the sea, the climate, and most importantly, it was an island country.It was basically thousands of islands of varying sizes far away from the mainland. Some were populous, inhabited with so many locals that they looked like slums.Others were all private properties, cover
Chapter 7304
As Claire recalled all the things that happened to her mother, she had come to understand a truth—she and her parents were very ordinary people, and very ordinary people wouldn't have miracles rolling in one after the other, let alone wealth that seemed to fall right on their lap.That was why as Claire started thinking back to all the things they had been through for the past few years, she was sure that everything unbelievable or lucky was Charlie's work behind the scenes.Her own father used to be directed by his family, but somehow became the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association—that must be Charlie too.Most embarrassingly, her father managed to lose that job because of the scandal he caused, but Charlie stepped up again and restored him to a leadership position.As such, even if her father was less self-centered and less of a troublemaker compared to her mother, he caused Charlie plenty of trouble anyway.At that moment, Claire's heart swelled with mela
Chapter 7303
Elaine actually didn't think that Mr. Larcelle would give in that easily from just a video post, when he was being so pompous outside the airport just earlier.Still, even as she grinned triumphantly, she was thinking to herself that it really didn't hurt to post so much on social media—that was something she used to great effect now, no?With that in mind, she snorted coolly and told Mr. Larcelle, "Young man, I don't mind giving it to you straight—never overestimate your own importance. Always understand that there's always a bigger fish… See, my husband is an important man in the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so he can't show off too much. If it were just me alone, I'd be flying to the Maldives on a G650. Why would I even get on the same plane as you?"Any pride Mr. Larcelle had completely vaporized under Elaine's menacing glare just then, and he kept bowing his head in apology, "Yes, you're right, ma'am. I should know better and tone it down!"Nodding in satisfaction, El
Chapter 7302
While Mr. Larcelle knew what he was dealing with, Mrs. Larcelle definitely didn't.Although she had hooked up with Mr. Larcelle for a while now, she never really enjoyed the privilege of a private jet, only hearing him talk about it a couple of times.And Mr. Larcelle definitely couldn't bear to splurge on a long journey with a private jet, only hitching rides after a flight had been chartered, or just for a short trip back to Aurous Hill. As the cost-effectiveness of private jets was simply that low, private jet owners usually had agents negotiating bargains with interested parties—a few dozen thousand Oskian dollars to cover fuel costs, and they'd happily let someone else ride along. It was very much like a cabbie picking up a fare on his way home after a long journey.Still, to put on airs, Mr. Larcelle once spent a hundred grand flying from Aurous Hill to Coleham, and he had since been bragging about it, even telling his new wife that he would fly private jet wherever he went.
Chapter 7301
There weren't many others waiting in the luxuriously decorated lounge, as the first-class lounge was separate from the guest lounge. The latter was meant for everyone else, whether flying economy or holding the airline's VIP card. In contrast, the first-class lounge was only open to the guests who spent hundreds of thousands for a transoceanic flight.After Charlie, Claire, Elaine, and Jacob showed their tickets, a young waiter led them to the couch inside.By sheer coincidence, both Mr. Larcelle and Mrs. Larcelle were there too, having breakfast.Grudges were never easily forgotten, and Elaine started toward them as soon as she saw them, rolling up their sleeves.Mr. Larcelle was himself surprised to see Charlie and the others, as flying first-class from Aurous Hill to the Maldives costs up to 70,000.In his mind, he was even cursing—it really hurt his wallet to spend 140,000 Oskian dollars on two first-class tickets. And yet, all four of those losers could afford first class?
Chapter 7300
Jacob was himself sulking after being humiliated.But there was no helping it when Mr. Larcelle had already left, giving him no chance to salvage his dignity.He hence had no choice but to take the loss and head into the airport with Charlie and Claire.Elaine was sulking too, muttering, "Shit, I never had to suffer such an insult before! Not even back in the day, when we all just opened our windows and yelled at our neighbors… But that prick had to rub it in! It's killing me!"Claire knew her mother's temper and hence quickly reasoned, "That's enough, Mom. It's no big deal in the first place—don't obsess over it. Remember, we're all supposed to be having fun."Elaine groaned, "I overheard them saying they're going to the Maldives too… Are they going on the same flight?"Charlie shrugged. "It's not like there's direct flights from Aurous Hill to the Maldives every day. This is also the season for tropical vacations, and that means there'd be a flight on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sat

thanks for your hard work.
Very interesting,very good too
I wonder how Claire reacts to Charlie's gesture
Finally, Claire will learn about the true Charlie; not the fake Charlie she has been married to for years.
Someone is after Loreen and Charlie saved her again. Now its time to deal with the bastards who want to kill her
looks like Super Man Charlie at work again hahaha haha.
I no fool hahaha haha
I purchased yesterday and I have not received the new chapters what might be wrong?
Charlie was the one who helped her twice
where is Claire? I hope she wasn't hit by a dagger...
I have read for 45 minutes slowly...and it only shows 3 minutes....I'm getting frustrated.
"At this time..." is over used and is becoming quite annoying. I like the story but some better editing would have helped.
fluttered in the air ? drenched in a downpour ? Ok flutter away
What in the world??

I am in chapter 260. Is it possible for dagger to be flying. So annoying and interesting
