Chapter 7205
Basically, Curtis had chosen to wage an open war against the Rothschilds because he didn't want his family to suffer, while also anticipating that they would disown him after making enemies against such a terrible entity.It's like person A knowing one's lover would cheat, but willingly allowing them the chance to do it and leave person A so that the lover wouldn't have to stay out of obligation.Even in death, Curtis still cared for his own family—for his father, who didn't care what happened to him, and for his siblings who just wanted him gone.Yule, aware of what had happened back then, had a fair idea of what was on Charlie's mind, too.Sighing, he said earnestly, "Charlie, there are lives that are meant to be lived for oneself. It was your father's duty to take care of his family and your mother's. In that sense, I think he more than succeeded."Charlie nodded quietly in agreement.He had met many other children at the orphanage, some of whom were born ill.Even though the

Even now, Charlie didn't think too highly of Carmen.As a child, all he remembered was how Carmen had constantly hounded his parents before they had left town.And when he met Carmen again years later, she had just had a huge fight with Elaine.Things had only gotten worse since, and Charlie had even planned to keep her in Cliffcouls for at least a couple of years and see what happens.That was why he wasn't concerned with Jeremiah's words.Seeing his indifference, Jeremiah knew he was still unhappy with Carmen.Hence, before she returned, he said seriously, "There are many things where you only see one side, Charlie. Your aunt used to be close with both your mother and father… but the entire family turned against your parents, and I myself didn't try to defend them either. To be honest, she abused your parents out of self-preservation."Pausing, he sighed. "It was a time of crisis where everyone was just trying to survive—just like on Mount Wintry. That's why they weren't stand

And when Curtis had gotten married, Ashley had treated Carmen like a sister.She was proud, but she was a good girl around Ashley and Curtis, never once being rude or overstepping.She worshiped both of them, but was also codependent on them. As the couple were both prodigies in their own right, she was convinced that they would take good care of her for her whole life… only for them to die young.The Wade family fell and never rose again ever since, and Jeremiah had been too busy mourning to worry about her. And as she had always been distant from Clayton, she was left marginalized by her own family.Even Carmen's husband, who had scored some degree of success thanks to Curtis' help, found opportunities denied after Curtis death. After years of mediocrity, even Carmen lost patience with him.And yet, at this moment, Carmen suddenly realized that her existence was even more tragic.Her brothers remained distant, considering her insignificant. Her father still cared, but he was
Chapter 7202
Meanwhile, Carmen, who was always talkative and readily expressed her opinions, was silent as she poured tea for everyone.Her eyes were darting toward Rachel frequently, the envy in her heart growing the more she peeked.Just seeing Rachel's appearance, style, and the healthy complexion on those cheeks of hers left Carmen feeling ugly, unable to look up at all.As she brewed tea, she noticed that her own hands were getting dry and wrinkled from age.Naturally, she was always consistently taking good care of her own skin, but skin and complexion simply weren't resistant to the passage of time. Even with all the moisturizers and other beauty products, Carmen's skin quality was aging significantly.As such, she felt all the more inferior as she watched Rachel raise her teacup with a pair of hands that were fair and blemish-free like a teenager's. On the other hand, Rachel was curious about Carmen.She had always been labeled as strong-willed and self-centered, and she was known t

Most importantly, when Ten Thousand Armies had stormed Mount Wintry, the Goldings knew the Wades were helpless, but they still stood firm by their side regardless.That loyalty was worth more than its weight in gold.However, Jeremiah still understood that he couldn't make the decisions for Charlie, or he would have made his grandson marry Quinn already.As for the Goldings, they felt a little embarrassed to keep harping about marriage when they had just received Charlie's Rejuvenation Pill.That afforded Charlie much breathing space in turn, and a lot less stress.Meanwhile, Carmen was preparing the tea set and brewing a premium tea called Beautiful Golden Eyebrows for everyone, while everyone chatted and somehow avoided the topic of marriage.After all, Jeremiah cared about the fight against the Qing Eliminating Society as much as Charlie's marriage.When he asked, Charlie gave him a quick rundown and soon remembered about Stephen Thompson. "Do you have any news on Stephen?"
Chapter 7200
Jeremiah and Carmen never felt cold despite the pelting winds, only the misery of being ostracized.They were certainly a far cry compared to Yule and Rachel's radiant faces, but they would never hold any grief against Charlie.After all, it was all their own damned fault.Inviting everyone inside, Jeremiah quickly told Carmen, "Go, make some tea for our guests. I'd like to have a little teatime with Yule and Charlie."Having lost her heiress schtick, Carmen nodded, smiling humbly and respectfully—just like a professional waitress. "Just wait for a while. I'll get it right away."Even as she got to work, she was afraid to ask for the Rejuvenation Pill, while yearning for it at the same time.The idea was that if she properly humbled herself to Charlie and his impression of her improved, wouldn't he find some goodness in his heart to give her half?On the other hand, Rachel raised a brow.Carmen was Charlie's aunt, after all, and such menial work simply seemed inappropriate.Tu

gold digging family..hahaha..
Wendy will be the kept mistress as long as the money is flowing to float the Wilson Group
to save their company but its shameful
Wendy's parents were embarrassed that their daughter slept with an older man... But ceased being embarrassed once she was paid very handsomely for her tryst. ......... That's rather backwards IMHO. ...
am I the only one that noticed Wendy was prosituted from her own family,, and plus come on yea he's old but he's also related right? I mean come on she got his last name and he got hers,, that's gotta mean they're cousins right
