Chapter 1621


    Stephen managed a bitter smile when he heard Charlie’s question and said forlornly, "Mr. Charlie,


    the vast majority of people in the world is ungrateful and often take things for granted. Only when in


    need of others will they cling to them and enjoy the benefits and support that is blessed to them, but


    once they don’t need help, they will turn the other way and even, in turn, me those who helped


    them, just to steal their limelight..." s


    At this point, Stephen said in a rather dejected tone," When your father led these families to fight the


    Rothschild family, they all sucked up to him, so much so that they even took the initiative to


    establish an Eastcliff Business Alliance and elected your father as the first chairman of the


    alliance..."


    "But after your father had defeated the Rothschild family, they immediately disbanded the alliance


    and even ndered your father''s reputation by using him of failing to manage and secure an


    absolute victory against the Rothschild family. There were even some who maliciously ndered


    your father, saying that he and the Rothschild family were working together to limit and destroy the


    financial opportunities that were avable for the big families i n Eastcliff..." 4


    Charlie balled his fists so tightly that the veins popped up on the back of his palm as he listened to


    Stephen recalling the past events. He growled in a deep voice, "These people have gone too far!"


    Stephen sighed. "Oh, Mr. Charlie. It is a norm to find this kind of ungrateful people all over the big


    families i n Eastcliff. Back then, your father went from being a hero of the Rothschild resistance to


    being the target of jealousy and nder by everyone in the city. It was because your father was too


    excellent!"


    At this point, Stephen paused for a moment before adding, "The tall poppy syndrome is a norm in


    every society and era. Your father was too brilliant that the whole Eastcliff turned their guns on him


    eventually..." 4N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    "Seeing that he had be a target, the Rothschild family immediately made aeback. In fact,


    they were so insidious as to publicly dere that it was their personal enmity with the Wade family


    and him, causing the families to sit on the fence and watch their fight with indifference." i


    Stephen began to get more furious as he continued, "A s your father became the target of the


    Rothschild family''s attack and the sneaky motives from the other big families in Eastcliff to drag him


    down, your grandfather had no choice but to expel your father from the Wade family and announce


    to the public that your father had broken ties with the Wade family. That was why your father took


    you and your mother with him to leave Eastcliff and go to Aurous Hill."


    With a gloomy expression, Charlie ground his teeth and said, "It was the betrayal of the Wade family


    by the entirety of Eastcliff, and a betrayal of my father by the Wade family. They pushed my father


    out to be a scapegoat and leave us to fend for ourselves against the wrath of the Rothschild


    family..." 6


    Stephen nodded lightly, his eyes as red as a herring." Yes, that was indeed how things were back


    then..."


    Charlie''s eyes filled with solemnity as he said coldly," They are a bunch of sons of batches who


    burned the bridge after crossing the river! I, Charlie Wade, swear t o the heavens that I will make


    those b*stards pay for this!"


    Stephen quickly said, "Mr. Charlie, calm down! Back then, all the other families in Eastcliff except


    the Golding family were involved in this matter, including the Schulz family who has been growing


    by leaps and bounds over the years, to the other small families whose worth barely exceeds 10


    billion. All of them betrayed your father. Please don''t turn yourself into their target!" 8


    Charlie uttered with a resolute expression, "I am not a coward. These people, including the Wade


    family, are aplices in the death of my parents. I will not let them off so easily!” 6


    Then, he looked at Stephen and said seriously," Stephen, don’t worry. I am not a fool. I won''t


    venture to go against the big families of Eastcliff before I establish a solid foundation for my strength


    and power. I will wait for the right moment as I gather my resources and power and strike them


    when they least


    expect it!" 7


    Stephen sighed, nodded, and said, "Mr. Charlie, not only do you want to avenge Mr. Curtis and your


    mother, but I have also been looking forward to this day for a long time. If you need anything, please


    tell m e. I''m willing to do whatever it takes to assist you!" 6


    Charlie nodded and said, "Thank you, Stephen. If there is anything I need your help with, I''ll


    definitely tell you."
