Charlie truly did not expect that the reason why Lady Wilson would come to show off and be cocky in front of him was because of Wendy.

Lady Wilson certainly did not know that the reason why Wendy could actually make the great leap from being a hostess who was bullied by everyone to becoming the general manager of Mallow Stenhouse Etiquette Corporation was entirely because Charlie was giving Wendy an opportunity because he pitied her.

When he heard this, Charlie looked at Lady Wilson as though he was staring at a stupid old monkey, and he said playfully, "Lady Wilson, your biggest failure in this life is your short-sightedness. If you could take a deeper look at problems, the Wilson family would not have fallen and ended up in this state today." 2

Immediately after that, Charlie then said seriously, "If you want to continue staying at Thompson First, you'd better remember to leave my family alone and mind your own business. However, if you cannot ever do that, perhaps you may not even have the opportunity to continue living here in the future anymore."

After he was done saying that, Charlie was prepared to close the door, but unexpectedly, when Lady Wilson

heard this, she suddenly became anxious, and she hurriedly stepped forward, blocking the doorway as she cursed offhandedly, "Charlie Wade! How dare you preach to me? Who do you think you are?! If it weren't because of Lord Wilson who brought you back to our house from the construction site, perhaps you might be begging for food now! Yet you still dare to call me short-sighted?! Do you think that the strong wind blew and built up the Wilson family's previous foundation?" 3

Charlie shook his head and spoke up, "I do not know if the strong wind blew and built up the Wilson family's foundation, but you have already lost it all. Wilson Group should have already been liquidated a long time ago, right? If my guess is correct, you should still be owing the bank a lot of money. Otherwise, your old villa would not have been seized by the bank. What else do you have now aside from the fact that you can temporarily live in Donald Webb's villa? If it was not because of Wendy's ability to make some money, I'm afraid that you'd still be pulling plastic bags at the supermarket now, right?"

Lady Wilson did not expect that Charlie would poke her sore spots with every word he spoke. The Wilson family's bankruptcy was the one thing that she had never been able to let go of and forget from the depths of her heart. Moreover, being forced to work in a supermarket was the most humiliating thing that she had ever done in her life. 2

Lady Wilson was flustered and exasperated as she said, "Charlie Wade! You should not be so proud and complacent so soon! It'll not be long before you are going to go down! I'll be waiting to see you and your family become a laughingstock at that time!"

Charlie nodded and laughed as he said, "Welcome, welcome. I'm just afraid that an old woman like you will not be able to wait until the day when I finally go down. At that time, wouldn't it be such a pity if you cannot witness it with your own eyes, then?"

Lady Wilson ground her teeth and said satirically, "I think that you'll be done for in a month or two! When those rich people start reacting, they will not only want to take back all of the money that you have cheated out of them, but they will also send you to prison and sentence you to life imprisonment!"

The more she spoke, the angrier Lady Wilson became. She continued cursing as though she had already lost her mind, "At that time, Jacob and Elaine will not have a good end either as your accomplices!" As she spoke, Lady Wilson gasped and panted before she said, "Oh, that's right! I almost forgot! There's Claire too!"

Charlie's eyes suddenly turned cold

as he stared at her, and he said frostily, "Lady Wilson, I'm simply reserving the last bit of my patience and tolerance for you on Claire's account. However, if you dare to make any offensive or insulting remarks about her, don't blame me for not showing you any mercy, then!" 1 "Oh! Do you think that I grew up being intimidated?!

I've even been in prison before, so how can I possibly be afraid of you?!" When Lady Wilson saw that Charlie seemed to be very sensitive as soon as she mentioned Claire, she immediately thought that she had managed to catch onto Charlie's sore spot. So, she suddenly became even more arrogant.

Just as Lady Wilson was about to target Claire and make a cutting remark at Charlie, she suddenly heard someone yelling out, "Grandma! What are you doing here?!"

The person who had spoken up was actually Wendy!

It was the weekend today, and Wendy originally did not have to go to work. However, since there were more students at the training school, Wendy had gone over there to keep an eye on the professional course for half a day. 4

When she thought of how it was Charlie's birthday today, she had even specifically headed to the Hermes store after work and spent eight thousand dollars to buy a Hermes belt so that she could give it to Charlie a s his birthday gift.

Wendy knew very well that with Charlie's current economic and financial strength, a Hermes belt would be nothing much in his eyes. 6
