At this moment, Shawn was already overwhelmed with anger.He cursed out angrily as Janus spoke up with a somewhat ashamed expression, “Hello, Mr. Long. It‘s been a long time.”“F*ck you! Who wants to see you?!” Shawn pointed at Janus and cursed angrily, “You’re really f*cking bold! You actually dare to show yourself in front of me?! Do you really think that your life is too long?!”Charlie, who was aside, said coldly, “Mr. Long, don’t you think that you’re not showing me any respect at all if you’re treating my distinguished guest like this?” Shawn instantly came back to his senses as he shuddered in fright. It was only then that Shawn realized that Charlie was the one who had brought Janus over!So, he asked Charlie nervously, “Mr. Wade, you... why do you know him?”Charlie frowned and said, “Uncle Janus is my father’s good friend.”Having said that, Charlie looked at Shawn and then asked him, “Mr. Long, are you going to ask who my father is now?”Shawn nodded subconsciousl

“Misunderstanding?”Charlie sneered and said, “Everyone in Hong Kong knows about this matter. Even Solomon as well as Mr. Lanyon is thinking of getting the bounty of thirty million Hong Kong dollars that you’re offering. Do you really think that I would believe you if you tell me now that this is all just a misunderstanding?”Shawn was extremely nervous at this moment. He only had one thought in his mind, and that was that he could never admit that he was indeed offering money in exchange for Janus’s life.He had seen Charlie’s methods before, and he knew that Charlie was ruthless and would never show mercy.Therefore, he could only clench his teeth and say, “Mr. Wade, you’re really mistaken! This matter is all rumors in the underground world. Many people only know how to spread this rumor indiscriminately and are simply irresponsible...”Charlie looked at him, nodded slightly, and said, “Since you refuse to admit it, I will find someone to confront you on the spot, then. What do

Shawn was so frightened by Charlie’s words that he nearly fainted.He secretly thought to himself, ‘When that prodigal son, Rudy, provoked Charlie, Charlie extorted ten billion US dollars from him within a span of ten years. I offended Charlie’s father twenty years ago, and I even went back on my own word. According to this perspective, this crime of mine is even worse than Rudy’s...’As he thought of this, he almost cried as he pleaded repeatedly, “Mr. Wade, I’m to blame for not being trustworthy and reneging on my promise. I really know that I was wrong now. I am willing to fly overnight to repent and admit my mistakes in front of your father, Curtis’s grave. I’m also willing to grovel before Janus and apologize to him. As long as you can forgive me this time, I can assure you that I will never make things difficult for Janus again in the future. From now on, Janus will be my brother, and I will definitely do my best to do anything that you want me to do!” Charlie sneered and sai

Charlie’s words frightened Shawn so much that he fainted directly. Jenna, who was beside him, hurriedly reached out her hands to hold him and support his head. She shook him as she shouted in his ear, “What’s wrong with you, Shawn?! Wake up, Shawn! Don’t scare me like this...”Thanks to Jenna’s screams, Shawn woke up with a start. The first thing he did when he woke up was to look at Charlie as he cried and said, “Mr. Wade, you’re killing me! How can I possibly afford to give you twenty billion US dollars in ten years?!”As Shawn said that, he cried bitterly and said, “It’s true that I was not trustworthy and went back on my word, but you cannot take advantage of this matter to ask me for so much money! You might as well kill me directly if you want so much money from me! Why don’t you kill me? If you kill me, my inheritance can still be left to Marianne and all my other children. However, if I make you that promise, I will be left with nothing, and their futures will also be penni

Charlie did not continue covering up in the face of Marianne’s questioning. He asked Marianne, “Miss Long, do you know that your father once made a promise to a man named Curtis Wade more than twenty years ago, saying that he would not continue causing trouble for a young man named Janus Campbell? However, Curtis Wade passed away due to an accident not long after that, and your father then broke his promise immediately, causing Janus Campbell to live in hiding in Oskiatown for more than twenty years.”Marianne’s eyes widened as she stared at Charlie in disbelief and asked him, “What... What is your relationship with these two people?”Charlie said indifferently, “Curtis Wade is my father, and Janus Campbell is my father’s good friend.”When Marianne heard this news, she was instantly shocked. She stared at Charlie, choked up, and said, “So, that means that you did not come to Hong Kong and stay in our house to discuss a collaboration with my father at all. You were deliberately appr
