Charlie couldn''t help quenching his curiosity and asked, "Dad, who is this Matilda that everyone is
talking about?"

Jacob rolled his eyes and shushed him, "Shush! You don''t have to rub it in!"
Charlie shrugged indifferently and kept quiet.
Meanwhile, as more and more people surrounded them, Aaron spruced himself up proudly and
introduced the young man standing next to him." Guys, I would like all of you to meet my son-inw,
Jake Dunn. He owns a startuppany in the inte service industry, and thepany will soon
b e listed on the Growth Enterprise Market." 1
"Wow!" Eric eximed in shock. "How much will thepany''s market be worth after listing? I bet it
must be hundreds of millions, right?”
"Hundreds of millions?" Aaron curled his lips pompously and blurted, "It starts with a billion, to say
the least! Think about it, do you know how difficult it i s for apany to be listed?! Without a
certain foundation and stability, how could apany pass s o many rounds of reviews by the
Securities Regtory Commission?" 3
Then, he added, "Tell you the truth, when hispany is listed, the market value will definitely
exceed 1
billion dors! The performance of hispany has risen very rapidly over the past two years. If
you''re interested in making money, you should buy hispany''s shares!" 5
Jake, Aaron''s son-inw, who had been quiet the whole time suddenly said, "Dad, hold on, rx.
I''m just an entrepreneur who recently ventured into the industry. I pale inparison to your old
friends who have made great achievements throughout their lives!"
Jake’s modesty had won the favor of many people at the scene. 2
An old man with silver hair sighed, "Oh, Aaron, your son-inw is so young and promising, yet, so
humble and low-key. He is a good son-inw, you''re very lucky!"
"Of course!" Aaron nodded dismissively. Then, he turned to Jacob and asked attentively, "By the
way, Jacob, what does your son-inw do?"
"My son-inw?” Jacob nced at Charlie and huffed a disappointing sigh. He wanted to brag and
conceal it with a lie, but it would be even more embarrassing if someone saw through his lies, so he
said sheepishly," He does housework."
“What? Housework?" Loud waves ofughter echoed among the crowd. 5
No one would have thought that they would get such a n absurd answer from Jacob.
Aaron grinned and said, "He does housework, which means he doesn''t have a job, am I right?
Jacob, I heard that you are a househusband as well, right? Why don''t I ask my son-inw to assign
some jobs for both of you? Jacob, you’re quite old now, I think you should be fine with being a guard
at the entrance. As for your son -inw, he is young and has experience in housework, so he can
work at the staff canteen as a chef and waiter. What do you think?" 6
The crowdughed again.
Charlie remained silent the whole time. He was so used to being insulted and mocked over the
years that he felt nothing out of it. He had gone through worse insults than this, so not only did he
not feel ashamed a t all, but he felt that Aaron''s sarcasm was a bit mediocre. 5
Jacob, on the other hand, was extremely infuriated. H e cursed inside his heart, ''Aaron Philips, you
jerk! You pompous b*stard, you started to mock and tease me when we''ve just met, you''ve crossed
the line! Do you still hold a grudge for not being able to tackle Matilda? That''s why you can''t get off
my back after so many years!'' 2
Aaron started again when none of them responded," Hey, Jacob, are you deaf? I kindly introduced
some jobs to you, can''t you say something?”
Then, he turned to Charlie and blurted in annoyance," Young man, your father-inw’s brain cannot
function very well due to his age, so I can forgive him for being slow and impolite. But you, young
man, are
you impolite and slow like him too?" 1
Charlie smiled and said, "Uncle, frankly speaking, I''m not cheap to be hired. My required sry is
very high."
