BookAmazoneBecause of Charlie's instigation and encouragement, Claire spent the whole night tossing and turning, thinking
about her business. She looked rather exhausted and fatigued the next morning due to the lack of sleep.
After waking up, Claire hurriedly freshened herself up. Charlie frowned at the sight and asked, "Dear, why don't
you sleep in? What's the hurry?"
"I'm going to Millenium Enterprise. | must not be late."
"Millenium Enterprise? Another interview?"
"No." Claire shook her head and said gingerly after a short pause, "I'm going to try to look for sprojects for
myself." 1
"Great!" Charlie smiled happily. "If you start a construction company, I'll be your first employee."
"Do you think that starting a construction company is like making dinner? Funds and connections are the main
criteria for the business to strive and survive," Claire said. "I want to start from a small office and draw design
drawings for the construction company. When I've built a significant network for myself and generated enough
capital funds, I'll register the company."

Charlie chuckled. "Money and connections are not a problem. | can help you start a company right now if
you want."
"No thanks," Claire rejected his kind offer without thinking, and then said seriously, "I want to try it myself first.
Besides, what kind of resources could you possibly have, anyway? Starting a construction company is not a
child's play." 5
"I'm serious. | have the money to start a company as well as business connections."
Right now, the Emgrand Group's investment covered almost 70% of Aurous Hill's businesses. It was a piece of
cake to get sdesigning projects from construction companies. 1
Claire assumed that he was just joking, and so, she waved her hand reluctantly and said, "You don't know
anything about the construction industry. I'll think about the investment, just leave it to me." 4 To register a
construction company, she needed at least 10 million dollars as start-up capital and a significant amount of
circulating capital. Where would Charlie get that amount of money? 4 Even if he did have the money, it was
impossible for him to have the connections in the construction industry. 2
Charlie was utterly speechless. His wife would rather start from scratch rather than utilize the readily available
resources that were himself. He didn't know what else to say to her. 6
Claire had just only left the house when Elaine, her mother, returned. She relied heavily on the Wilson Group for
her pension, so she had often visited the Wilson Group over the past two days. 2 Although Claire had cut her ties
with the Wilson family, Elaine didn't seem to share the ssentiment. On the contrary, she wanted to reconcile
with them.
"Where did Claire go?" 1
"She went to look for freelancing projects."
"What freelancing project! Do you really want to leave the Wilson family?" Elaine huffed in irritation. "It was just
a tiny misunderstanding, why do you want to make a fuss out of it and cut ties with them?! We've becthe
laughingstock in the city!" 3
Jacob stared at Elaine in disbelief and bewilderment.
"Darling, what did Lady Wilson do to you when you were there? Did you knock your head against the wall after
all the scolding? Are you out of your mind?" 4

"What? No! | didn't lose my senses, mind you!" Elaine threw herself onto the sofa as she growled," Tomorrow, go
to the Wilson family villa withand apologize to Lady Wilson. She is your mother, and Chris is your brother.
Blood is thicker than water, how could you cut ties just like that?" 3
Jacob glared at her and said in a slightly furious tone," They wanted to sell my house, and they wanted to rob
Charlie's villa. They have never regardedas part of the Wilson family ever! If you want to apologize, you
can go alone. | won't step into their house ever again!" 2
Elaine grew angrier when Jacob, who was always so kind and mild-tempered, becso stubborn and firm. She
turned to Charlie and said, "Charlie, your dad is an old, stubborn dog. You be the judge! They are mother and
son, they are brothers. Family quarrels are soon mended! Don't you think it's a little too childish and trifling to
sever ties just like that? Besides, | need to count on the Wilson Group for my pension!" 2
"See?! She's crazy! They want to seize my property and rob Charlie's villa, they even want Claire to divorce
Charlie and marry another man! Don't you see how insane they are?" Jacob stood up and shouted indignantly.
"Did they hypnotize you or something when you were there? How could you simply believe everything they
said?" 1
Charlie's head was tingling in pain as he stood in the middle of the feud, thus, he quickly blurted out an excuse
to get out of the miserable situation. "Claire askedto pick her up, | have to go now."
