Despite Jacob feeling utterly defeated and helpless, he was fortunate to have ine, the sea-fixing needle, by his side.
ine’s purpose was to anchor Jacob in a specific state. If Jacob excelled too much, she would bring him back to his original form. Currently, seeing Jacob in a state of decline, she was determined to make him smile and get him back to his business activities.
ine’s message was clear this time: it didn’t matter that Jacob had lost his job. Even if he felt like a vegetable, she insisted he apany her to shopping malls in Dubai. And if he were to pass away, she would ensure his ashes were kept in a box, so he could still join her for shopping trips.
Under ine’s influence, Jacob found himself spending the entire day with her, exploring, shopping, and taking photos. Gradually, his mood and mental state began to improve.
Meanwhile, in Aurous Hill, as the wedding date for Hank and Matilda drew near, Charlie Wade also started preparing for the asion.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Hank was a schoolmate of Charlie’s mother and an elder figure. Although Charlie had only recently met Matilda, he found her to be a generous and respectable intellectual. Her son, Paul, admired her greatly, and Charlie wanted to honor their trust by being a good witness at their wedding.
In addition to fulfilling the role of a witness, as the younger brother of the couple, Charlie needed to give thoughtful gifts. After some consideration, he decided to present each of them with an enhanced version of the blood-saving heart-saving pill, which would hold significant meaning for them at their age, as they were both over fifty.
With just two days left before the wedding, Charlie’s grandfather, uncle, second uncle, and Li Yalin concluded their investment trip in Eastcliff and returned to Aurous Hill on the An family’s private ne.
Before boarding the ne, Charlie’s grandfather called him to invite him over for dinner to discuss thetest investment opportunities.
Charlie readily epted the invitation and nned to inform his wife that he would be meeting a client that evening. However, realizing that ine and Jacob were not at home and not wanting ire to be alone, he reached out to Doris Young from the Dihao Group, asking her to arrange a dinner with ire.
ire had always viewed Doris Young as a benefactor, someone who had greatly supported her when she started her business. So when Doris suggested treating her to dinner, ire agreed immediately. She then spoke to Charlie, apologizing for leaving him to handle dinner alone.
Charlie was pleased with this arrangement and encouraged her to enjoy a good conversation with Doris. It was a perfect solution.<fnfb0b> ???s ??????? ?s ?????? ?? findnovel</fnfb0b>
As Charlie prepared to leave for the Champs Elysees vi, Hank called him. “Charlie, your Aunt Matilda and I have reserved a private room at Buckingham Pce. I’d like to invite you to join us tomorrow night. Matilda has mentioned this to you, right?”
“Uncle Hank,” Charlie replied with a smile, “What time should I be there tomorrow night? I’ll be there on time.”
Hank suggested, “How about seven o’clock?”
“Sounds good,” Charlie confirmed. “I’ll make sure to be there at seven.”
After agreeing, Charlie recalled Hank’s previousments about the promising prospects of the new energy industry. He asked, “Uncle Hank, do you have time tonight?”
Hank replied, “I don’t seem to have any special ns. What’s on your mind?”
Charlie exined, “My grandfather and two uncles are back in Aurous Hill. If you’re free this evening, I’d like to invite you over for a simple meal at my grandfather’s house. They’ve signed numerous investment contracts and identified many investment targets during their trip, and I’d love your insights on them.”
Hank quickly responded, “Your grandfather and uncles manage a massive group worth over one trillion dors. I’m just a university professor. They are the real economists. I’m merely Zhao Kuo—a strategist who talks about war on paper. I wouldn’t dare to showcase my skills in front of them…”
