NovelStart"Okay, I'll drive."
The couple drove to Antique Street together.
Since it was the weekend, there were many people at Antique Street.
Zachary had already opened his stall for a long to n Antique Street. Therefore, he has his own permanent
booth on the street. Charlie could find him as soon as he entered the Antique Street. 2
At this time, Zachary was holding a fake jade pendant in his hand as he was bragging to a foreign couple. "l am
telling you that this jade pendant was worn by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty before he passed it to his
grandson and the generation after that. After many twists and turns, the jade pendant finally fell in my hands..."

"Is it really that valuable?" the middle-aged man asked in surprise. "How much does this jade pendant cost?"
Zachary grinned before he replied, "Since we're fated to meet today, I'll sell this jade pendant to you for just one
hundred and eighty thousand dollars. After leaving Antique Street, you can actually sell this jade pendant to an
auction house for at least one million eight hundred thousand dollars!" 4

The woman smirked before she replied, "If you can sell this jade pendant for ten times the amount out of
Antique Street, then why didn't you do that yourself? Do you really think we are fools? Con, husband! Let's
get out of here."
After that, the woman dragged her husband away from Zachary's stall.
Zachary started cursing angrily at this time. "Damn it! When did all these foreign tourists becso smart?"
When Charlie saw what happened, he smiled before he approached Zachary. "So Zachary, are you still trying to
cheat your customers?" 1
"Oh!" Zachary exclaimed when he saw Charlie. He quickly bowed before he greeted Charlie immediately. "Mr.
Wade, why are you here today?"
After greeting Charlie, Zachary noticed Claire who was standing next to him. "Oh! This must be your wife, Mr.
Wade. She's such a beautiful woman!"
Charlie simply replied, "Stop flattering me! The reason why | am here today is because | heard that you want to
pay my father-in-law three hundred thousand dollars for a pen holder?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zachary nodded as he replied excitedly. "Your father-in-law is really amazing to have found such
a rare piece of treasure. That pen holder is worth at least three to four hundred thousand dollars! He's really
amazing!"
At this time, Charlie pulled Zachary aside before he whispered, "Zachary, stop fooling me. Everyone on Antique
Street can see that this broken pen holder is a fake. The only person who doesn't know that is none other than
my father-in-law. Now, tellwhy you are willing to pay three hundred thousand dollars for this fake pen
holder? Con, tellthe reason now." 1
Zachary quickly replied, "Mr. Wade, | wanted to honor you because you're a really incredible man. Not too long
ago, your old man ctowith two magical pills and after reselling it, | managed to earn at least two million
dollars. The more | thought about it, the more uneasy I felt. It would be inappropriate forto keep all the
money to myself when you were the one who made the pills, right?" 1
As soon as he spoke, Zachary continued smiling before he said, "That is why I thought of another way to share
the profits with you. | know that money does not mean anything to you at all. Therefore, | thought that I'd be
able to share the profits with you through your father-in-law instead." 4

Charlie sneered before he said, "Yes, Zachary. You took the magical pills from my father-in-law and you paid him
a few hundred thousand for it when you were making millions out of it. Do you really think you'd be able to atone
for your sins by simply offeringthree hundred thousand dollars for a pen holder?"
Zachary started trembling in shock as he replied, "Mr. Wade, please forgive me! If you aren't satisfied, I'll give
you all that money. | don't want anything else, | only want your friendship."
Zachary knew very well that he cannot afford to provoke Charlie. After all, Charlie was a very powerful man who
had connections with many powerful and wealthy people in Aurous Hill. Everyone regarded him as the greatest
metaphysics master because he had actually destroyed a couple of metaphysics masters from Hong Kong. So,
Zachary only wanted to please Charlie. 4
At this time, Charlie simply glanced at Zachary before he said, "Forget it. My father-in-law doesn't know the value
of the pill and he felt that he had already taken advantage of you when you gave him five hundred thousand
dollars for the pills. So, let's just leave it as it is"
After that, Charlie looked at Zachary before he said," However, | hope that you won't hesitate to helpif |
require your help in the future. Do you understand what | am saying?" 1
Zachary quickly smiled before he replied, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. From now on, I'll do whatever you wantto
for you!"
