Nodding, Charlie said, "I'll tell her when I see her and ask her if she'd like to visit.""Good!" Jeremiah laughed cheerfully. "Well, it's dinner in this house tomorrow… Oh, and since Quinn is coming, why not invite her parents too?"Charlie was at once uneasy. "What are you up to, Gramps?"Jeremiah chuckled. "Nothing. It's been a while since we've all had dinner together, and there's no problem with inviting friends over for dinner, right?"Charlie sighed in exasperation. "It's your call, but I think you should call Mr. Golding personally if you want to invite him over. I'd rather not have to play messenger.""Sure thing!" Jeremiah nodded without hesitation. "Once you pick Quinn up from the airport, go visit Yule and his wife, and I'll call him in the afternoon to invite him over. I'm sure he won't refuse.""Alright," Charlie nodded and stayed silent.He was completely on the back foot, and anything he said would be used against him.So, he simply stopped talking.Jeremiah th
Chapter 7176
Jeremiah's earnest talk only left Charlie in despair.He had never considered the issue before in-depth—it was just not necessary to make that choice at this time, and there was no ideal solution.But Jeremiah was right about one thing.If Charlie did succeed in taking down Fleur Griffin and the Qing Eliminating Society, he could make his triumphant return to the fold of the Wade family.Then, he would make it known to the world that the son of Curtis Wade and Ashley Acker lives.But when that day came, what would he tell Claire?She would find out—it was just a matter of time, and the thought left Charlie weary.Lies beget more lies, and he had been lying from the start. Not only did he lie to Claire about who he was, but he had also lied about many other things, including about his parents.Other matters aside, he was the one who had had Elaine thrown in prison for stealing his debit card and wiring all his savings to her own account. While Claire had been worrying, he had be

Pausing, Jeremiah continued, "When that happens, how much flak do you think they would give Ms. Wilson? And the legions of fans who admire Quinn so zealously, who are eager to see you tie the knot with her. Have you considered the idea that they would mob her? And run their mouths in her presence?"Charlie really couldn't argue against Jeremiah, because his grandfather was right.Claire simply wasn't a celebrity like Quinn and didn't have legions of fans like Quinn.Over the years in show business, Quinn had had no scandals or rumors affecting her. Everyone knew that she was the only daughter of a millionaire family, and that she wasn't working in showbiz for fame or the money, but to seek her lost fiancé.It was such a refreshing change that countless people quickly became her fans, and one might even say that there was no one else like her in showbiz. Naturally, there were other celebrities who had worked in show business for decades without scandals, too, but they would often

Charlie was stunned speechless. "Yule's entire family?!"After a while, he asked, "But why make such a decision? It's so unfair to Quinn, and I am not worthy enough for them to go that far…"Jeremiah sighed wryly. "I don't get it myself. I've even tried reasoning with Yule, but he insists that he has made up his mind and even asked me to talk to you about it. What more can I say?"Charlie remained flustered. "I mean, this just isn't the solution! Have they not considered how terrible the backlash would be for Quinn if word spreads? Even when she retires from showbiz, her influence will remain for sure—both the public and the media will be watching!"Jeremiah shook his head. "Don't worry about that. Yule has already thought of a solution. Years ago, he bought a private island in the Maldives, which he planned to develop as a resort. But now, he's planning to cancel those plans and simply use it as a private residence."Once Quinn gets pregnant, Yule will bring his wife and Quinn ov

Pausing, Charlie then added, "And as I'm sure you know, my in-laws can be a handful. If they knew how important I am, they'd be shouting it to the whole world, and all of my plans would be left in disarray.""Makes sense," Jeremiah nodded solemnly after some thought.Both Elaine and Jacob, especially Elaine, were so volatile that they couldn't care about anything else once they got upset.Jeremiah sighed gloomily at the thought. "Charlie, your father and you are both the single pillars that keep the lineage going. You really should be more serious about leaving heirs, as I'm sure only you could produce a progeny as stellar as yourself and your father. So, whether you will eventually come clean to Ms. Wilson or not, having children should still be your foremost priority."Charlie nodded. "That's true, and I will be serious about it eventually, but now's still too early to have children. There's still Fleur—what if she beats me while I have had a kid, and I die just like my father? S
Chapter 7172
Charlie didn't tell Quinn about performing at Tanya's concert right away.And although he flew to Eastcliff on the same flight as Tanya, he didn't stay with her, as Isaac was already waiting to pick him up.He had already informed Isaac beforehand, who had arranged for him to stay with the Wades tonight.When the plane landed in Eastcliff, it parked at a hangar further away to keep Tanya out of sight.Two prestige cars were already waiting—one for Tanya, the other for Charlie.They both got off the plane, and when Charlie saw Isaac waiting by the car, he told Tanya, "Get some proper rest and prepare for the concerts. I'll be sure to inform you when Ms. Golding accepts your invitation.""Yes, Mr. Wade!" Tanya nodded, watching as he got into Isaac's car before getting in the other herself.Isaac got in as well, asking in surprise, "Sir, were you actually speaking with Tanya Sweet?"Charlie chuckled. "I'm her Feng Shui consultant, and since she's coming to Eastcliff for the concer

Charlie says he loves his wife but it doesn't fit, because if he loved Claire he wouldn't want to see her in sorrow, Jacob has never loved his wife and daughter. He is just as happy with them, he only thinks about himself, and what kind of love he talks about that he has missed Matilde for so long
Jacob is so sweet. I want him and Matilda to be happy together. And Elaine can just suck it. Let her rot in the mines with Hannah and the girls.
She's just that distracted. Ha ha ha Besides, you know the author loves to exaggerate. It's always "hundreds of millions of dollars", or "thousands of years", or whatever. Ha ha ha
They were college sweethearts, who had planned to wed. But Elaine got Jacob drunk, and slept with him, supposedly resulting in Claire, and forcing them to marry. That was over 20y ago.
Or they are truly in love. My HEA and I dated for a couple years, then life took us in different directions for about 5y. When we reconnected, it was as if no time had passed at all. We just celebrated our 26th anniversary, our oldest grandchild just graduated HS, and our 6th was born in January.
Jacob loves his daughter very much. He just never loved the shrew who tricked him into marriage. And Charlie loves Claire very much. He knows removing Elaine would both bring, and remove Claire's sorrow. That's why he hasn't gotten fully rid of Elaine yet.
Jacob and Matilda must have been animals in the sack to have this much desire for each other after 20 years
Cheaper doctors
soul mates finding each other again.
what does twenty over years mean? I can't keep silent about this any longer
It's cute love
so sad hope it won't twist
Oh snap. Makes sense. She most likely was pregnant before. She knew it and conned Jacob into believing that he was the father. Elaine is such a nasty person. Wouldn’t put this past her. ??♂️
I’m gonna guess Jacob pleasured her well to carry this intimacy for over two decades. At this time I feel safe in my assumption. ??
She sounds like a terrible cook if she almost lost her whole hand. And no just cut her finger or something lol
Good for them
I been thinking tht too
Claire is not jacob’s daughter. I’m willing to bet
