Elaine was extremely excited.
All of those gifts were money to her! 4
She did not know how much those antique vases cost but she knew that each bottle of Moutai Flying Fairy liquor
was worth at least thirty to forty thousand dollars! Moreover, there were twenty bottles of liquor n this box. This
meant that this box of liquor was worth a few hundred thousand dollars! 6
There was also a box of Yellow Crane Tower cigars. The cigars cost five thousand dollars each and there were fifty
cigars in the box! That would mean that the box of cigars was worth more than two hundred thousand dollars!
Just the liquor and cigars were already worth at least one million dollars! 2
Why shouldn't she accept it? 4
Moreover, if she had the VIP card from Treasure Pavilion, she would be able to show off in front of her friends!
When Claire saw how obsessive and materialistic her mother was, she called out in a reluctant manner," Mom..."
Elaine glared at her before she replied, "What's wrong? Are you going to say that I shouldn't accept these gifts?"
At this time, Claire replied, "I mean, we should not accept these gifts just like that. After all, we don't know what
is going on. So, how can we accept these expensive gifts just like that?"

Charlie quickly responded, "Since it is an apology gift, we should accept it."
The middle-aged man was finally relieved.
Before he chere, his boss had told him that he no longer needed to go back to work if Charlie refused to
accept the gifts. 1
When Charlie turned around, he saw that Elaine had already moved the box of liquor and cigars into the house.
At this time, Elaine was holding the pair of antique vases in her hand as she was observing it under the lamp.
Charlie could only shake his head as he told the middle-aged man, "Thank you for sending the gifts over. You can
leave first." 7
"Alright then, Mr. Wade. | will not bother you anymore." 1
After that, Charlie closed the door before he turned around to walk into this house. He was taken aback at this
time. "Why are you guys staring at me?" 3
At this time, all three of the people in the living room had their eyes fixed on him.
Elaine gave a dry cough before she smirked and asked, "Charlie, since when did you becfriends with the
owner of Treasure Pavilion? Why did they bring gifts and call the way to our house just to apologize to you?"
s
Charlie shook his head before he replied, "Mom, | think there's smisunderstanding here. I'm not friends with
the owner of Treasure Pavilion. | think the reason they have call the way here to apologize today is simply
because they provide very good customer service. Since their employees have made a mistake, | guess the boss
simply wants to apologize and compensate us to protect the reputation of Treasure Pavilion..." 10
Elaine suddenly scowled as she replied in a frustrated manner, "Well, | actually thought you had beca
decent man overnight. | thought that you had becfriends with someone with good connections. In the end,
it turns out that their good customer service is the only reason we're receiving all these gifts..." s
However, Claire was still a little puzzled at this time. Even if Treasure Pavilion had a very good customer service,
why would the other party give them such an expensive gift as compensation?
At this time, Elaine was in a very good mood after receiving a lot of gifts. Therefore, she finally stopped attacking
Charlie and she was thinking of how much money she could make by selling off the liquor and cigars. 7
After they were done with dinner, Charlie was doing the dishes in the kitchen when he suddenly received a
phone call.
The phone call was from Graham, the man whom Charlie had helped not too long ago.

In fact, Graham was the one who had given him the jade bracelet.
On the other end of the line, Graham greeted him in a respectful manner, "Mr. Wade!"
Charlie replied, "Yes? Is there something | can help you with?"
At this time, Graham quickly replied, "I really want to thank you for your advice the last t| saw you.
Thanks to you, the Quinton family seems to be in a better condition nowadays. | really want to thank you for
your guidance. Otherwise, the Quinton family would have been completely destroyed." 1
Charlie smiled before he asked, "I think that things aren't going that smoothly now, am I right? Otherwise, you
wouldn't be callingat this hour."
Graham choked before he replied in an awkward manner, "Mr. Wade you really know everything. | can't seem to
hide anything from you at all."
Charlie continued smiling without saying a single word.
Sure enough, Graham stuttered as he continued speaking, "Mr. Wade, | would like to ask you to save the Quinton
family again. | know we owe you a lot and the Quinton family will never forget what you have done for us."
