The longer Jasmine had gone missing, the more relaxed Tyler felt.He felt that over time, Jasmine’s chances of survival had already become smaller and smaller.Reuben was not as open-minded as him. He simply stood aside as he nervously said in a low voice, “Dad, Charlie will certainly have his own means of doing things. We have to be careful not to leave any clues!”Tyler nodded as he said, “That is for sure. All we need to do now is to play our roles well.”Reuben said again, “By the way, Dad, I’ve still felt a little uneasy in my heart over the past two days. Where did Jasmine go? How could she just have gone missing? How could there be no news about her at all, no matter whether she is dead or alive?”Tyler sneered as he said, “I think Jasmine is very likely to be dead already, but they simply have not found her body yet.”Reuben hurriedly asked, “How can you be so certain?”Tyler replied indifferently, “Everything depends entirely on the survival rate. If a person suddenly g

Therefore, even though he was currently in Aurous Hill, Tyler could still get through to him. Coincidentally, the helicopter had landed near Moore Group at this moment. Charlie heard a ringtone in Hashimoto’s pocket. He took the phone out and saw the name ‘Tyler’. When the Japanese saved the names of people in their phones, they normally used Oskian characters. Hence, when they recorded the names of Oskian people, the Oskian characters would be used as well. Once Charlie saw that the call was from Tyler, he immediately warned Hashimoto, “If you want to stay alive, obey me. If not, I’ll send you to the dog butcher, and you’ll be chopped into pieces and fed to the dogs. Do you understand?” Nodding frantically, Hashimoto’s face turned pale as he pleaded, “As long as you spare my life, I’ll do whatever you ask of me without any hesitation…” Charlie coldly uttered, “When you answer Tyler’s call, if he asks about your current situation, tell him that eve

At 10.55 am in the morning. Suddenly, Moore Group had a stock suspension. The stock suspension signified the temporary halt of trading. From this moment, the shares of Moore Group were sealed. There was no rise and fall until trading resumed. To apply for a stock suspension from the commission required a very strong reason. For Moore Group, the reason for the stock suspension was because the group had a huge announcement to make. Generally, stock suspensions happened before a listed group made an important announcement. This was to prevent insider trading and stop the informed from being opportunistic. For example, in the past, Amazing Tiger 360 used to be a very famous internet company. They sought to be listed in Oskia and were able to be listed in the local A-shares albeit via the backdoor. This was the so-called backdoor listing. To put it plainly, when a company could not fulfill certain requirements set by the commission for public listin

After all, Charlie was known as the true dragon. Therefore, Reuben dared not neglect him at all. Seeing Charlie arrive alone, he immediately stepped forward and said to him respectfully, “Master Wade, you’re here!” Charlie nodded slightly. With a tinge of regret, he said, “Reuben, I’m sorry. In regards to Jasmine’s case, I’ve tried my best…” Charlie purposely said “tried my best”, these three words, but there was no response. On the other hand, when Reuben heard these three words, he immediately assumed a scenario where a patient was brought to the hospital with little hope of survival, and these words were spoken to the patient’s family. Thus, in his mind, he added elements that were not meant by Charlie. He quietly mulled, ‘Indeed, it looks like Charlie couldn’t find Jasmine’s whereabouts. Moreover, Charlie is now back in Oskia, so he must’ve given up on searching. This means Dad and I can finally have peace of mind.’ Reuben’s heart was invigorated, but he pret

Once the female secretary finished her opening address, the crowd gave a roaring round of applause. The ten board members of Moore Group entered through the side door one by one. Charlie did not know these people who walked in front except for the last two, which were Reuben, and his father, Tyler. Despite entering last, the central seat on the podium was empty and reserved for Tyler. After he went on stage, he straightaway sat in the central seat. Just as he was seated, he saw a person who was seated in the VIP seat in the first row—Charlie. Seeing Charlie, Tyler became a bit nervous inside, just like Reuben. As the saying goes, a thief was bound to have a guilty conscience. Tyler was also worried that all his evil deeds would be exposed one day. He was especially scared of Charlie, because to him, Charlie posed the biggest threat. If his deeds were to be exposed one day, he would not be scared of the police looking for him. Instead, h

Now, Tyler himself had acknowledged this fact. Thus, this matter was cast in stone and could be regarded as official news to be announced to the public right away. However, at this moment, Charlie suddenly asked coldly, “Mr. Moore, Ms. Jasmine Moore is only lost at the moment. There is no confirmation of her death. I would like to ask. If Ms. Jasmine comes back safely one day, would you return the position of chairman to her?” Tyler thought that today would be the easiest transition of power. Moreover, he also felt that he had convinced the entire board. The only thing left was to announce it to the public. Under these circumstances, it would be impossible for anyone to cause trouble. However, he would never have thought that Charlie would actually trouble him suddenly at this moment. Despite feeling very furious in his heart, he still answered politely, “Don’t worry, everybody. During the board meeting, we agreed on a basic principle. Even though I was v

The moment Jasmine appeared, everyone was struck dumb except Charlie. No one would have imagined that Jasmine, who was missing with no news about her life and death, would suddenly appear at the press conference. Just a second ago, Moore Group had just announced Tyler as the new chairman after a board meeting because the company could not confirm whether Jasmine was still alive. However, the next second, Jasmine was suddenly back! Almost no one could accept this huge twist. Even the movies were not scripted this way! The one who could not accept this reality the most was naturally the new chairman of Moore Group—Tyler. At this moment, Tyler looked at Jasmine. He was so angry that eye sockets were about to crack open! His eyes goggled widely, his eyeballs reddened. At the same time, blood veins crawled all over them. That pair of eyes almost fell out of its eye sockets. He would never have dreamt that Jasmine could return from Japan ali

Under the gaze of the crowd, Jasmine strode toward the podium. At this moment, many journalists reached out their microphones. There was one journalist who sounded breathless and crazed as he asked, “Ms. Moore, Ms. Moore. I’m a journalist from the South Region Financial Times. I would like to know, how did you escape alive from the accident over the cliff in Japan?” Jasmine stopped walking, smiled, and answered, “When the accident happened, fortunately, I wasn’t in the car.” Another person asked, “Ms. Moore, since you were not in the car, after so many days, the Japanese police were still looking for you, so why didn’t you show up?” Jasmine replied lightly, “The reason I didn’t show up was because I suspected the accident had purposely been set up by people who were out to get me. For my safety, I decided not to show up.” Once these words came out, the crowd gasped! Jasmine’s accident had been purposely set up?! If this was true, that meant there were p

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
