Chapter 252


    Who would have known that Lady Wilson was just a believer in Buddhism on the surface, but she


    was actually an extremely greedy and shameless person within! 1


    At that time, he would have been willing to kneel down in front of anyone if that person offered to


    give him one million dors. 3


    No one can resist the attraction of money when they are in need. 2


    Those who are able to really treat money as dirt are those people who have more than enough


    money to spend.


    What was ten or twenty million dors to Charlie now? He had tens of billions of dors in his bank


    ount and Emgrand Group made tens of billions of dors in profits every year. He did not know


    what else he could spend his money on anymore. 4


    Therefore, what was the point of him epting the twenty million dors from them now? He would


    rather not take the money, but instead allow them to pay homage to him and to treat him as their


    benefactor just so they would show him more respect i n the future. 2


    That was what he really wanted. 2


    But how could he tell Jasmine what he was thinking?


    Right now, Jasmine feels that he was a saint who could actually treat money like dirt.


    If that was the case, then he would simply allow her to continue thinking that way, then.


    At this time, Jasmine continued drinking her red wine as she muttered to herself, "Actually, I can


    tolerate everything else but I really don''t want to be manipted and controlled by the Moore family


    when ites to matter involving my own marriage. I don''t want to be a pawn that is controlled and


    used to advance the Moore family business. I don''t want to give my youth and happiness away. I


    don’t want to follow in my mother''s footsteps and repeat all her mistakes..." 4


    Charlie asked out of curiosity, "Was your mother''s marriage also arranged?" 1


    "Yes." Jasmine nodded before she said, "After marrying my father, my mother was never happy in


    her life. She was so depressed for so many years until she finally passed away at a very young


    age."


    Charlie vaguely remembered Albert telling him that Jasmine''s mother had given her the diamond


    ne before she passed away more than ten years ago.


    Since Jasmine should be around twenty-five or twenty -six years old, Charlie estimated that her


    mother had probably died when she was around ten years old. In that case, her mother must have


    been really young

    when she passed away. 5


    Jasmine took another sip of red wine and she yed with the wine ss in her hand before she


    said apologetically, "Mr. Wade, I’m sorry that you had to listen to me talk so much nonsense.”


    Charlie hurriedly replied at this time, "Jasmine, please don''t say that. I''m d that you can confide


    in me because this shows that you trust me." 2


    Jasmine nodded before she wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. After that, she said, "Mr.


    Wade, I really want to thank you for everything that you have done for me today. You didn''t only


    save my grandfather’s life but you also listened to meining and spewing so much nonsense


    about m y life. Thank you for being such a good friend!"


    Charlie smiled and said, "You don''t have to be so polite with me if you regard me as your own


    friend! If friends are too polite, then it seems as though the friendship isn’t real."


    "Yes!" Jasmine replied as she nodded. "It is already gettingte, Mr. Wade. I will send you home."


    Charlie waved his hand immediately. "You don''t need t 0 send me off. I don''t think that you should


    be driving i n this condition so you should also find a driver to take you home." 4


    Jasmine nodded and said, "Don’t worry about me! The female manager here can drive me home


    later. I need t 0 send you home first!"
