Although Jaime was secretly complaining and feeling very spiteful in his heart, he was more or less still a little worried.

He was afraid that Sophie's words would reach his grandfather, Cadfan. What if his grandfather felt that he was the one who had given Sophie this idea?

Wouldn't he be offending his grandfather again, then?!

Although Jaime was the eldest grandson of the Schulz family, Cadfan could easily make it so that Jaime would end up having nothing at all in an instant if Jaime were to offend Cadfan. 2 After all, he was different as compared to Sophie.

Sophie already had a net worth of hundreds of billions of dollars now. If all of this was made public, Sophie might be the richest woman in Oskia. 3

As he thought about this, Jaime could not help but feel that it was even more unbearable.

However, Jefferson and the other members of the Dunn family did not doubt Sophie's words at all.

Jefferson even clapped his hands and praised her," Sophie, you did a very good job! We cannot let Cadfan Schulz off the hook just like that! He has to pay a sufficient price for his actions! Cadfan's reputation has already been ruined because of the videos that the mysterious person had exposed. There is no real significance even if we were to continue striking him when he is already down. We might as well force him to hand over a portion of his assets!" 5

Sophie's eldest uncle, Harlem, was a little anxious as he said, "Schulz Ocean Shipping Group has already been forced to suspend all of their business now. It is said that their daily losses every day amount to a huge sum of money. Under these kinds of circumstances, I'm afraid that it will be very difficult for you to turn this loss into a profit, Sophie!" 2

Sophie deliberately glanced at her elder brother before she said in a slightly provocative tone, "It doesn't matter. If I really cannot replace a way to turn this loss into a profit, I'll simply sell all of its assets for cash, then. Even if the ship is not allowed to run, it can still be sold, right? At that time, I can just sell all of it at a discounted price, and I'd still be able to get one or two hundred billion dollars in return." 1

Harlem was stunned for a moment. After that, he put his thumb up and said with admiration, "Wonderful! I did not think of that at all. Even if the business cannot be worked out, the assets can still be sold... It just so happens that I also have some connections and network resources. If you ever decide to sell the assets, you can just let me know. I'll help you establish the connections and get a good price!" 7 When Jaime heard these words, his heart hurt as though it was dripping with blood. 2

At the Diamond Room in The Heaven Springs.

Charlie and the others were all still exchanging toasts and drinking with one another, and they had already drunk more than a dozen bottles of Moutai. Both the host and the guests were all enjoying themselves.

Charlie had already asked Isaac to arrange several cars in advance for the Harker family members as well as the father and daughter duo, Yolden and Autumn. 6

After coming out of the room,

Charlie made the arrangements.

пе

"Lord Harker, you can take the cars back to the villa directly with the other brothers. Madam Harker can share a ride with me. I'll send Professor Hart and his daughter back first before sending Madam Harker to the hotel." 4

Holden wrapped one of his palms around his other hand as he said, "I'll just act according to Master Wade's instructions, then."

The crowd moved toward the entrance, and both Albert and Isaac worked together to let the ten people from the Harker family take three cars first.

After the three cars had left, Isaac arranged for his subordinate to drive a Lexus six-seater MPV to the front before he said to Charlie, "Master Wade, I can ride in this car with

Madam Harker, Professor Hart, and Miss Hart. I will get in the front

passenger seat." 5

Charlie nodded. He was about to get into the car when he suddenly heard someone shouting out in surprise," Charlie!" 3

Charlie turned his head to take a look. At this time, the person who walked out of The Heaven Springs was actually his father-in-law's first love, Matilda.

Matilda had also been having dinner

with a few of her colleagues from Senior University at The Heaven Springs today. She had just come out, and she was about to call for cab to leave when she saw Charlie standing in front of an MPV. So, she

a

had decided to come, she

him.

and greet

Charlie had not expected to meet Matilda here. So, he smiled and said, "Aunt Hall, you were eating here too?" 6
