Chapter 1969
After getting confirmation from Charlie, Albert then continued, "Lord Moore has gifted a San
Lorenzo luxurious yacht made in Italy!"
"A yacht?!" ine was the first one to blurt out the question, "What is the purpose of the yacht? Is it
a yacht to visit tourist ces?" 4
Lord Mooreughed as he answered, "Let me clear any misunderstandings, Madam. San Lorenzo
is an old European luxury yacht manufacturer. The length of the yacht is more than 20 meters long
and has three decks. It is very suitable for family trips."
ine was startled and said, "I suppose a yacht like this is worth a lot, right?"
Reuben, who was nearby, blurted out, "It costs around seventy million with tax."
"How much again?!"
ine was dumbfounded. "A yacht which costs seventy million?! This is crazy!”
ire couldn''t help but cut in, "Lord Moore, I''m afraid we can’t ept such avish gift from you...."
2
Charlie smiled gently and made a hand gesture to interrupt ire and said, "Darling, let’s not
disappoint Lord Moore and ept the gift. After all, it is a token o f appreciation out of sincerity from
him." 3
He then nced at Lord Moore and gestured to pay gratitude to him. "Thank you very much, Lord
Moore!"
Lord Moore said hurriedly, "You''re always wee, Master Wade. I''m satisfied as long as you fancy
my gift!"
He then continued, "The yacht''s keys and its relevant documents are inside the gift box. The yacht
is parked at Aurous Yachts Association''s pier. I have bought an exclusive berth for you. If you wish
to drive the yacht along the Yaak River, just contact the officer from Aurous Yachts Association." 2
Charlie nodded his head lightly and then said with a smile, "I''m afraid I won’t be using it in the near
future. After all, I don''t have a yacht driver''s license. Let’s talk about it after I’ve gotten the license."

Lord Moore added hurriedly, "Master Wade, should you need to use the yacht, do not hesitate to
ask for help from either Jasmine or Reuben. Both of them have a license.”
Jasmine spoke shyly, "My father’s right, Master Wade. If you have any requests about the yacht,
just let me know." 6
She then recalled something and continued, "By the way, after this Oskian New Year, if you need to
use the yacht, please contact my brother. I''ll have to go to Japan and may stay there for quite some
time before I return."
"Oh?" Charlie asked curiously, "Are you traveling to
Japan for a trip?"

Jasmine exined immediately, "I''m going there for a business meeting. The Moore family is about
to enter the steel industry business. As such, I would like to discuss some partnership matters with
Japan''s Nippon Steel.” 2
"Nippon Steel?" Charlie frowned and asked her, "Is thepany very powerful?"
Jasmine nodded and answered, "Nippon Steel is one 0 f the world''s top steelpanies and is one
of the world’srgest steelpanies."
Charlie asked curiously, "Who''s the boss behind this conglomerate?"
Jasmine replied, "Sumitomo Group is the big boss behind Nippon Steel.”
"Sumitomo Group?" Charlie smiled. "I’ve not heard of it before." 1
Jasmineughed as she said, "Sumitomo Group has a wide range of businesses. But, most of them
are in the industrial field, particrly the heavy industry.
Therefore, it has very little to do with our daily life."
Charlie nodded his head gently and said, "If you need help in Japan, you may contact me. I have a
few acquaintances over there."
Charlie did not reveal that he knew Ito and Nanako from the Yahiko family. After all, he did not want
to reveal to anyone about his doings in Japan. He
preferred to keep a low profile. 2
Without a moment of hesitation, Jasmine smiled and replied, "Alright, Master Wade. If I need help, I
will contact you!”
Then, Albert continued reading.
"Dr. Simmons has presented a pair of antique blue and white elephant ears porcin vases with
dragon patterns."
