Chapter 852
Author: Lord Leaf
At that time, a young American boy was madly pursuing her. Out of anger and because she simply wanted to forget her past as soon as possible, she decided to accept the other party’s pursuit.

Both of them got married quickly, started a family, and had children together very soon.

That American boy was very kind to her and he cared for her throughout all his life. However, Matilda had always been unable to forget her ex-boyfriend even after more than twenty years had already passed by.

When she looked back on their history, she realized that she had been too arrogant in the past and that was the reason why she was fooled by others.

She realized that her roommate did not come to her just because she wanted to confess her mistake and ask for her forgiveness. In fact, although her roommate told her that she hoped that she would not mind this matter at all, she was secretly hoping that Matilda would mind it and take the initiative to back out of her relationship so that she would willin

    Keith smiled affectionately at Charlie just then. "My boy, revenge isn't really the most important thing for our families; it's for you to live on. So, remember that even if revenge is important, that must only come under the condition that you're safe and sound. I'd rather not have revenge if you have to risk your life."You're the only child of your parents, and your mother was the most successful among all my children. I'm sure you're also the best that Jeremiah's bloodline has to offer, so your life comes before all else. Otherwise, it would be the worst loss both our families suffer!"Jeremiah couldn't help nodding in agreement. "That's right. Revenge doesn't come first—your life does."While Charlie understood their intention, revenge for his parents' deaths had been his goal since he was eight. He had been enduring it for years so that he could catch their killer himself, and he wouldn't forgive himself if he gave up just because he was risking his own life.Still, he couldn

    Jeremiah nodded without hesitation. "For sure—even if it's against the doctor's orders!"With that, everyone followed the three elders into the villa, where the long table in the dining hall had already been laden with a ton of exquisite dishes.Keith led Jeremiah to sit beside him, pouring him and then himself a full glass, before turning to Charlie and his children, "You kids must drink tonight as well!"Hearing that, Charlie got up and poured for his uncles, aunt, and Merlin, while Keith picked up his glass and nodded at Jeremiah. "Here, I earnestly apologize for my family's many transgressions against you over the years, old friend. Please don't hold it against us!"Jeremiah nodded. He had certainly been harassed plenty by the Ackers over the years, with even Kaeden not showing him due respect despite being younger at an important conference.Still, he knew how to be objective when it came to dealing with people, and he understood that the Ackers resented him because Ashley h

    Even before Charlie properly parked his car outside the villa front gates, the Ackers all emerged with Keith and Holly leading the way while their children and Merlin followed.Jeremiah was surprised as he was nervous to see everyone in the Acker family come out to receive him, and he undid his seatbelt before he knew it, ready to get off to greet them in turn.As Charlie stopped the car with the seatbelt indicator beeping out loud, Jeremiah quickly opened the door and got out impatiently.Keith quickened his pace too, reaching the car just as Jeremiah alighted, holding out his hands as he exclaimed emotionally, "Jeremiah, my friend! It's been a while!"Jeremiah nodded as he grasped Keith's hands in turn, "Indeed, it has!"There was just a single exchange between them, but they must have shaken their hands a thousand times over.Holly walked up just then, immediately polite as she said, "Long time no see, Jeremiah!"Jeremiah smiled and nodded at her. "You've been well over the y

    Over the years, the rift between the Ackers and the Wades had grown, but it was a result of misunderstandings.After the Qing Eliminating Society had set their sights on Charlie's parents, Curtis had gone on a campaign against the Rothschilds so that the Wades had plausible deniability. And when pressured by the Rothschilds, the Wades did indeed cave under pressure as expected, and they had exiled Curtis in response.Back then, Jeremiah was completely unaware that his beloved son was already being hunted, and he was simply under the impression that his son's campaign against the Rothschilds had been completely misguided, thus hampering the family's progress into the international stage.To get on the Rothschilds' good graces and to make it clear that the Wade family meant no harm, he thus had to exile Curtis, though he intended for it to be merely a temporary solution.On one hand, he could prevent Curtis from accessing the family's wealth and influence in his personal campaign whi

    With those words, Charlie didn't wait for Jacob to say another word and stood up. "I'm going up if there's nothing else, pops."-Early next morning, Jacob drove to the Calligraphy and Painting Association.While most members had a lot to talk about seeing him return, the respective vice-presidents had made sure behind closed doors that none would do so openly.Jacob was at first apprehensive about being scorned, so he was surprised that everyone was polite and stopped worrying altogether.And days later, Yolden and Matilda returned to Aurous Hill after their honeymoon trip while the press conference to announce the launch of Curtis Automotive was at hand.The Ackers had their hand in plenty of cookie jars, but the press conference and the new car company were their current priority.To showcase that, the Ackers and Charlie all decided that Keith would also be present for the press conference to take the post as board chairman. Jeremiah Wade would be present too, both to represe

    When Charlie saw Jacob strutting into the room smugly, he knew that Jacob had made it back into the Calligraphy and Painting Association.Still, he asked out of feigned curiosity, "Did something good happen, pops?"Jacob chuckled and said, "Why, yes! My boy, Don Albert is truly the man! You just asked him to do something about Kenny Bay this afternoon, and now, Kenny's begging to have me back!"To be fair, the head of department is way less glamorous than being administrative vice-president, but I guess it's acceptable. I've already agreed to report in to the association tomorrow too."Charlie nodded quietly—Jacob was incompetent, but sending him outside was better than having him stay home all the time."That's good," he said, smiling. "At least you won't be bored."Jacob nodded, immediately thrilled. "I really left Kenny flabbergasted! I told him outright that since I'm living in Thompson first, why the hell would I care to stay in the Calligraphy and Painting Association? He w
