Chapter 6051The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord Leaf"But why?" Charlie asked, bewildered. "How could my father, who was much better than me, not have the fate of the ascending dragon? Why me? An orphan who lost his parents at the age of eight and a loser who was a laughingstock in Aurous Hill! Why? I don't get it..." With a long sigh, Raymond lamented with a tearful hint, "Oh, Mr. Wade... You have no idea what the fate of the ascending dragon means. It isn't a fate that people are born with, but a fate that is changed artificially. Your father had the fate of the dragon, and your highest destiny is a dragon. To become an ascending dragon, you need the combination of two dragons..." As he spoke of this, Raymond choked up, tears flooding his eyes, "The reason you have the fate of the ascending dragon is because your father took away his destiny and gave it to you! "That combines with your own fate of the dragon, and you eventually acquired the fate of the ascending dragon!" "What? W-What did you just say?!" Charlie's heart skippRead more
Chapter 6052The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord LeafAt that moment, Charlie could no longer compose himself. He lowered his head, covered his face, and wailed aloud. His parents had been murdered when he was young. For many years after that, he often had survivor's guilt. If it weren't for Mrs. Lewis's decades-long care and guidance, he would have become depressed and disturbed, and at one point, he would have even committed suicide. Ever since receiving the Apocalyptic Book, he had been able to discover some of the hidden secrets behind his parents' death. When he learned it was his father's meticulous arrangement that enabled him to grow up safely in the orphanage, his sense of guilt and shame had intensified. And now, he learned that his father had left the Apocalyptic Book for him, and it was his father who had sacrificed himself so that he could have the fate of owning the book. The truth was so harsh and heart-wrenching that he felt immensely remorseful. Raymond's final remark was the last straw. He said that strippinRead more
Chapter 6053The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord LeafCharlie murmured, "I want to know what my father went through..." "I understand." Raymond nodded, asserting, "But too many attachments will only become your burden. Besides, I don't want to reminisce about the cruel and devastating past. I'm sorry..." Charlie pursed his lips and nodded gently. Raymond quickly changed the subject, "By the way, I hid the treasure tower in the same place. After you leave this hellhole, you must retrieve it and bring it back to Oskia as soon as possible." Charlie nodded and asked, "Where did you hide it?" Raymond chuckled and replied, "I hid it outside my family mansion's gate in New Jersey." He cleared his throat and continued, "Outside the gate is a pair of majestic lion statues. There is a secret compartment in the base of the male lion. That's where I hid it. It's easy to open the compartment. You just need a crane or forklift to lift the body of the male lion, and the base will open. You'll find the compartment there." "Huh?!" Charlie gaRead more
Chapter 6054The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord LeafNoticing the firm determination in Charlie's eyes, Raymond earnestly persuaded him, "Please don't get into a direct conflict with them for my sake. It isn't worth it, and it may affect our strategy." "Don't worry." Charlie nodded and reassured him, "They don't know who they are up against. It's easy to attack them when we're in the dark." As he said this, he looked at Raymond and said, "I still have some questions. I would like you to answer them for me." "Of course," Raymond replied hastily. Charlie swiftly asked, "I want to know how my father came into contact with the Preface of the Apocalyptic Book and the Apocalyptic Book. Also, how did he get involved with the Qing Eliminating Society?" With a sigh, Raymond illustrated, "Your father had similar experiences to you. The process by which he obtained the Preface is very similar to the process by which you obtained the Apocalyptic Book." Thinking of something his uncle had said, Charlie asked in surprise, "Did he also getRead more
Chapter 6055The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord Leaf"There were several palace collections that the Qing court recorded, and their prices were even more expensive." "Such a large number of highly valuable cultural relics could easily reach 200 million dollars even in the lowest bid, and that was 20 years ago." "Although my family business was on a relatively large scale at that time, the antique industry is capital-intensive. Our family's assets might be tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars, but a large part of it was inventory all around the world. It was hard for us to come out with 200 million right away." "Also, in the antique industry, you can't expect to liquidate inventory quickly. The more inventory you have, the more patient you have to be." "Because the antique industry is similar to the stock market. The worst thing that can happen is a concentrated sell-off that crashes the market. I can buy ten pieces of 14th-century porcelain at once, but there is no way I can sell ten pieces at once. The more IRead more
Chapter 6056The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord LeafCharlie hastily asked, "You must have read the Preface of the Apocalyptic Book, right? What exactly does it say?" Raymond replied, "The content recorded in the book is all-encompassing, but its real core is a map that needs to be deciphered from the text bit by bit. Back then, your parents were very interested in studying and deciphering the Preface. Thanks to your father, I studied it briefly too, but I wasn't good at the Oskian language because I was born and raised in the States. The content was too difficult and obscure for me to understand, and I soon lost interest in studying it." "After that, your parents left the States and returned to Oskia. I heard that they went to great lengths to search for the place mentioned in the book. Thankfully, they found the place after going through so much hardship. That place was where your father took the Apocalyptic Book." "Really?" Charlie gasped, astonished. "What's the place's name? Is it called the Longevity Haven?" "I don't know."Read more
Chapter 6057The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord LeafAs a close friend of Charlie's father, Raymond hoped that Charlie would not repeat Curtis's mistakes, but Charlie's remarks made him realize that Curtis's and Charlie's lives had already been determined when Curtis decided to study the Preface of the Apocalyptic Book. Charlie's life was also destined to be full of dangers. Peace and serenity were a far-fetched dream for him. Thinking about this, Raymond sighed. "When I learned that people's destinies were divided into different levels, I thought that your father's fate of the dragon would bring him luck and joy, but from the looks of it, even if you have the fate of the ascending dragon, there are still difficulties and challenges everywhere." With a gentle smile, Charlie said calmly, "Now it seems that everything is fated." After that, he looked at Raymond and said respectfully with gratitude, "Thank you for everything you have done for me. Don't worry. I'll take care of everything later. You only need to stay here for one moRead more
Chapter 6058The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord LeafCharlie huffed in surprise, "Wow, he's so bold. He can't wait to f*ck your wife before your plane takes off." Bruce clenched his fists tightly and snarled indignantly, "Yes! That's what pissed me off the most! Actually, the bastard had already arrived at my house before I even arrived at the airport!" "Don't you want to man up and solve the problem?" asked Charlie curiously. Bruce abruptly burst into tears and wailed, "What can I do? No matter how pissed I am, I can't go against the Rothschilds! They are rich and powerful, but I only make a few million a year. Besides, it's hard for a middle-aged person like me to find a job now. If I stop working with them, I can't even find a job that pays 300 grand a year. I have no choice but to swallow my anger." "Hah!" Charlie laughed out loud. "You're really something." Then, something crossed his mind, and he asked, "By the way, you said that you installed cameras at home and filmed Malcolm going to your house. Did you get anything spRead more
Chapter 6059The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord LeafIn order to ease Raymond's problem and turn the passive situation into an active one, Charlie planned to have Bruce turn against the Rothschild family. However, he had to first find out how loyal Bruce was to the family before executing the plan. If Bruce was extremely loyal to the family, asking him to turn against the family would only make him feel unsure and skeptical. For this very reason, Charlie had purposely asked Bruce about his satisfaction and loyalty to the family. To his pleasant surprise, the marital affair between Bruce's wife and a member of the Rothschild family was exposed. Bruce's wife was cheating on him with a core member of the Rothschild family. Under such a circ*mstance, it seemed reasonable and natural to have him turn against the Rothschild family. After all, no man could hold on for too long when his wife cheated on him. Hence, Charlie kept manipulating him psychologically, letting him know that money was nothing compared to a man's dignity. BRead more
Chapter 6060The Charismatic Charlie Wade/Lord Leaf"After you upload the video, you should immediately upload the video of Malcolm having an affair with your wife!" "Then, make another video in your office to explain why you want to attack the Rothschild family. Let them know that you will man up this time, and make the person who is sleeping with your wife pay the price!" "Remember, from now on, you are a fearless tiger! Use your sharpest teeth to bite their throats and never let go!" Shaking all over, Bruce howled almost fanatically, "Don't worry. I'll fight them to the end!" With a nod, Charlie instructed, "Include Mr. Cole in the first video and explain why the family imprisoned him here." "Yes, sir!" Bruce nodded without hesitation. "Roger that!" "You don't have to do it right away, though," Charlie said. "Send me up first and do what I just told you to do after I return to the cell." After that, he turned to Raymond and reassured him, "Once the video is released, I believe it will cause an uproar in the country. TheRead more
