Chapter 141 – 142
Chapter 141
When the two returned home, neither of the women was at home.
The mother-in-law Elaine went to the chess and card room to play mahjong before returning, and Claire did not get off work.
So Charlie went back to the bedroom first and took the lightning striker out of the box.
A strong aura came out from the lightning strike.
Charlie sat cross-legged on the ground, placed the lightning strike wood in his palm, closed his eyes slightly, and the “Nine Profound Heavenly Secrets” mental method was running in his body, slowly sucking spiritual energy into his body.
When he opened his eyes, his eyes were exquisite and his aura changed drastically.
The blood dragon thunderbolt wood in his hand is already a little dim.
But even if it loses aura, it still has some strong thunderous breath, which is considered a treasure.
If supported by other treasures, Charlie could now use it to refine some simple magical artifacts.
When he came out of the room, it was already night.
As soon as he arrived in the living room, Charlie heard his mother-in-law snorted coldly and said, “Now that the shelf is big and I don’t have any food, wait for me to serve you, right?”
Charlie smiled wryly and explained: “Sorry mom, I was so tired this afternoon and fell asleep.”
“Hey, did going to the auction exhaust you? Or did Harold exhaust you?” Elaine said angrily.
Charlie was shocked, then shook his head and said, “I didn’t pit Harold, where did you hear the news?”
Elaine snorted coldly, and said, “Of course the Lady Willson called and said, you don’t have to be embarrassed, and Harold was kicked out. The Lady Willson called and scolded me! She said you are Rubbish. Can you cause less trouble for the family?”
Claire said from the side: “Mom, I think Harold was kicked out. He must have caused some trouble himself. It has nothing to do with Charlie. Charlie is not like that.”
“Why not?” Elaine threw her chopsticks angrily: “Harold filed a complaint after he came back, saying that because Charlie got the invitation letter by improper means, after being found out, Treasure was offended and he was a member of the Willson family. One of them was also kicked out, and the owner of the treasure pavilion was still talking. The Willson family is not allowed to go in the future, they will break their legs if they dare to! The family is embarrassed this time!”
Jacob said at this time: “Huh! The invitation letter is fundamentally problematic. I think, Harold must have caused the trouble himself, and he was afraid that his mother would punish him, so he deliberately dumped the pot on Charlie.”
“You’re still here to help this wimpy talk, if you didn’t want to go to that auction, can these things happen?” Elaine glared at Jacob and cursed.
Jacob hurriedly shut up for dinner, not daring to make a sound.
Elaine said impatiently: “He is a waste, what can he have in getting the invitation letter, and now he has offended Harold, I see how he ends up.”
Before she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, followed by a low voice.
“Excuse me, is Mr. Charlie at home?”
Elaine’s face was tense, and she glared at Charlie angrily, “Oops, it must be the Lady Willson who came. It depends on what you did!
“Let’s take a look first.” Claire also looked solemn, stood up and walked towards the door.
There was no sound in the living room, Elaine and Jacob both stood up nervously, thinking about how to respond.
Charlie’s face was slightly dark, if the Lady Willson turned black and white and brought someone to the door to ask the crime, then he wouldn’t have to give the Lady Willson face!
Chapter 142
Claire opened the door carefully, and asked vigilantly: “What’s the matter with you?”
Charlie frowned, walked to the door with a stride, pulled Claire behind him calmly, and said coldly to the people outside: “You are looking for me?”
A middle-aged man in a straight suit suddenly smiled respectfully after seeing him: “You are Mr. Charlie, right? I am the new manager of Treasure Pavillion and I just took office this afternoon.
Charlie looked at the people in surprise: “Are you from the Treasures Pavilion?”
“Treasures Pavilion?”
Claire, who was standing behind him, was also stunned.
The man hurriedly said: “Our pavilion master deeply felt self-blame for Mr. Charlie’s departure. He drove out Harold who was in the middle of the matter on the spot, and also suspended the auction. Treasure Pavilion was not well received, we came here in hope Mr. Charlie can forgive us regardless of the previous troubles.”
After speaking, the middle-aged man waved his hand behind him.
Several strong men in black immediately carried gifts and put them at the door.
Charlie glanced, and saw that there were so many gifts!
A box of limited edition “Yellow Crane Tower” and a box of 30-year-old Moutai Liquor!
There is also a pair of antique vases from the Ming Dynasty and a set of tortoiseshell!
These gifts are worth over a million!
“Mr. Charlie, this is the mistake of Treasures Pavilion. The owner of the pavilion is preparing for a new auction with Ms. Song, so he can’t come by himself, so he asked me to apologize, saying that he will apologize to you personally when he has the opportunity. Please forgive us!”
After finishing speaking, the middle-aged man bowed deeply in front of Charlie.
Charlie nodded and said, “Okay, put things down.”
The middle-aged man then took out two golden invitation letters from his pocket, handed them to Charlie respectfully, and continued: “This is an invitation letter for the new auction. Please come there with Mr. Willson, this time I promise I won’t let you down again, please give us a chance to make up for it!”
After speaking, he explained: “There is also a special Treasures Pavilion Royal VIP Card. We only issued ten of these cards, which are valid for life. You can enjoy the highest courtesy when you come to Treasures Pavilion!”
Charlie glanced at the VIP card. The surface of the card was golden, with gold leaf and diamonds.
He said lightly: “I am not very interested in auctions. Ask my dad if he is interested.”
“Okay.” The middle-aged man hurriedly held the card to Jacob, and said with a smile: “Old Mr. Willson, I’m really sorry today, please be sure to visit us the day after tomorrow.”
“This” Jacob has calmed down from the shock, glanced at the VIP card, and couldn’t help swallowing his throat.
He recognized that this is a limited-level VIP card of the Treasures Pavilion, which is only issued to members of the cabinet with status, and not for sale at all!
Those who have this VIP card can enter and exit the treasure pavilion freely, and enjoy the highest treatment. All the antiques in the pavilion can be enjoyed at will, and there are also high discounts for purchase.
Jacob couldn’t refuse such a temptation.
Just about to accept it cheeky, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and snatched both VIP cards.
It was Charlie’s mother-in-law, Elaine, grabbing two VIP cards with a smile, and she was so happy that she said: “Since you are here to apologize, I will reluctantly accept these gifts and VIP cards. The auction will be the day after tomorrow. , My husband will come!”
