There was no way he would let such a good opportunity slip by.

So, he stubbornly said, “I want cash, and I'm waiting right here. If you don't give me the money, I'll wait for the police to arrive!”

Jilian looked nervous and desperate as she pleaded bitterly, “Sir, please take me away from here, and I'll give you two hundred thousand US dollars!”

Charlie remained unmoved as he insisted, “I want cash, and I want it now!”

Jilian was on the verge of tears as she anxiously looked back toward the estate, fearing her father might come chasing after her. However, Charlie didn't give her any chance.

At that moment, a tall, stout man in a suit hurriedly approached with a large group behind him. Jilian fell into despair when she saw this because the man in the front of the group was her father, Antonio.

Antonio was furious and alarmed. He never expected that just moments after Jilian had accidentally damaged her dress and was supposedly mending it, he would receive reports that she had cras

    As Albert entered the front door, Jacob rushed toward his family excitedly, "Everyone, Don Albert is here! Come, let's all welcome him together!"Charlie naturally knew why Albert was there since he was the one who had arranged it in the first place.On the other hand, Claire and Elaine were quite shocked that Albert had come, and the latter certainly knew how important Albert was in Aurous Hill."Oh, good evening, Don Albert!" She exclaimed fawningly, springing to her feet in greeting. "Please, take a seat!""Good evening, Mrs. Wilson," Albert nodded at her politely before turning toward Charlie and Claire. "Master Wade, Mrs. Wade."Clarie nodded and smiled while Charlie made a surprised face as he asked, "To what do we owe the pleasure?""It's a matter of utmost urgency," Albert quickly said. "You really have to help me on this one!"Just hearing that the don had something to ask of Charlie, Jacob promptly told Charlie, "Please, son—Don Albert has helped us plenty for a while

    While Jacob was making tea, the female news anchor was reporting after her male co-anchor finished, "Just this morning, Aurous Hill officials called for a meeting where it was unanimously decided that the construction of the Curtis Autos megaplant will be supported with all utility providers ranging from electric, water, gas, and traffic assistance for the next year…"Jacob frowned as he listened, groaning in annoyance, "Curtis Autos again? Why can't they stop talking about it?""They explained it on TV, didn't they?" Elaine replied offhandedly. "It's the biggest investment since the city was founded, so local news is going to stay on it for a while."That only left Jacob further annoyed as he sighed unhappily, "Well, I don't get it. Are the Curtises and Wades both blind? They could have gotten anyone else for CEO, but it had to be Yolden Hart! What can some professor like him even hope to achieve?"Elaine jerked in realization and quickly asked, "Yolden Hart? As in Matilda's husba

    After dinner, Julien reluctantly left to prepare for this journey back to the States.As for Charlie, he sent Raymond back to Antique Street while asking Albert to post some guards at Treasure Measure to prevent trouble.After that, he called Helena to confirm when he would be traveling to Europe.She also informed Charlie that the AI module would be put through a comprehensive test by tomorrow. Since it was replicated out of the Silicon Valley, it wouldn't cause much delay, with the finer details estimated to be combed through in a couple of days before it could be handed over in three.As the first party, Helena would be there personally, just as Harrison would be there incognito as the representative of the second party.After learning that Charlie would be traveling to Europe, once Helena was done reporting, she couldn't help asking, "Are you going to be there for the handover?""No. You can get that done with Harrison," Charlie chuckled. "In fact, we will each be contacting

    Albert smiled and nodded. "Exactly. We're all friends here, Mr. Rothschild, and you have my number. Just call whenever you're coming again.""Yes! Definitely!" Julien nodded, smiling before he knew it.He didn't know why he felt surprised and touched to be called a friend by Albert, even overwhelmed.And Albert was supposed to be no more than Charlie's lackey—his wealth, position, and connections were barely a sliver of what Julien had!Hence, he stood up and raised his glass again, smiling at Albert, "You're right, Mr. Rhodes! We're all friends—let's drink to that!"Albert was surprised too, and he mused to himself that working for Charlie was truly granting all the boons possible!After all, they were talking about the motherfucking heir apparent of the Rothschild family here! If he told his old man when he visited his grave next week, the old-timer would probably leap out of his coffin just to snap at him for spouting bullshit…Seeing that Albert was just smiling without retu

    Charlie simply smiled and didn't respond to Julien's question.After all, the reason Helena had managed to shorten the time needed to build the AI module from a couple of years to just a month was because she had offered Harrison the right to purchase half a Healing Pill for fifty billion USD.There was no question that it was the chief reason that motivated Harrison to invest all the resources he had in the project, making possible what was supposed to be impossible before.Given how strongly he felt about the Healing Pill, he most definitely would travel to Europe personally to pass Helena the AI module and make the purchase.In fact, Charlie was positive he would take the half-pill on the spot.Still, that wasn't good news for Julien. His father would live longer the more pills he consumed, while he had even less chance of succeeding him in this lifetime.Raising his glass at Julien, Charlie smiled, "Come, let's drink to your safe journey home."Seeing that Charlie was changi

    Still, Charlie decided to throw a bone and stroke Julien's ego.Pretending to be displeased, he said, "Backstabbing?! I'll definitely make Harrison pay! Hell, I will show him what comes of it when he arrives in Europe in a few days."Celebrating inwardly, Julien quickly said, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade! I'm the only person not involved who knows. Rest assured, my lips are sealed, and no one will know about the Whittakers."Charlie nodded just as Albert knocked on the door and entered. "Shall we start serving the food now, Master Wade?"Charlie beckoned, "Hold on, take a seat. "There are things I need to tell you and Julien here."Albert quickly took a seat, nodding respectfully, "At your service, Master Wade."Charlie glanced at Julien before asking, "Well, Julien said he'd donate a hundred million USD for upgrades and renovations. Is that true?""Yes, yes, I did!" Julien answered before Albert could. "Don't worry, Mr. Rhodes. I will arrange for the transfer once I return to the Sta
