Chapter 161
After finding out Callum's true identity, Charles got down on his knees in front of Callum in an instant. "Charles, what are you doing? Why are you kneeling before that guy?" Carl questioned with his eyes wide open in shock. He was evidently not as smart as Charles, and could still not figure out who Callum actually was. Once Charles heard what Carl had said, he quickly shouted at the top of his lungs, "Carl, you idiot! Get on your fucking knees right now!" Upon that, Carl was rendered speechless. "W- why should I do that? I didn't do anything wrong." Charles was absolutely pissed off. He got up and slapped Carl hard across the face and scowled, "Carl, I’m asking you to kneel down in front of Mr. Bowman. Do you hear me?" "Charles, I still don't understand..." Before Carl could finish his sentence, Charles raised his hand and slapped him across the face once again, widening his eyes and crying with anger, "On your knees! Right this instant!" Carl st

Earlier on at the Sunset Bar, Madeleine gave her customers an apology due to the fight that took place between Callum and Charles, announcing that all the drinks in the bar would be at half price tonight.As a result, more and more customers came to her bar after the news had spread, and her business was booming. After being swamped with work for nearly an hour, Madeleine and the waiters at the bar could finally get some rest. The waiters heaved a sigh of relief as they slumped onto the couch while Madeleine went into the private room where Vera was.Once Madeleine entered the private room, Vera poured a glass of red wine for her and said with a charming smile, "Madeleine, congrats! Your bar is doing really well.""Business here usually isn’t that great, but today’s an exception! You should take the credit for it, of course." Madeleine blinked and chuckled.She took the wine glass from Vera and said softly, "Vera, why didn't you tell me that you were

In one of the private rooms at the Sunset Bar, Madeleine paused for a moment upon seeing that Charles was ringing her, then answered the phone with a frown.As soon as Madeleine answered the call, Charles stammered and asked nervously, "Ma- Madeleine, can we talk now?""Sure. What's up?" Madeleine queried with a frown, wondering why Charles was calling her at such a late hour."Well, Madeleine, I'm really sorry for what happened at your bar earlier today. I've made up my mind. I'll return the 20% of your bar's shares to you tomorrow," Charles declared in a tactful manner, bearing in mind that Callum did not want others to find out his true identity.Madeleine was instantly struck dumb. After pondering for a moment, she scowled, "Charles, what do you mean by that? Whatever happened between you and Callum has nothing to do with me! The person who beat you up was Callum. I wasn’t the one who provoked you. Why are you suddenly returning the shares to me? Everyo

In the house, Callum could finally see the girl standing in front of him once the sack on his head was removed.The people who kidnapped him were Carol, Ethan, and Henry! Who would have thought that it would be them?Callum was gobsmacked as he stared at Carol. Damn it! What the hell is this bitch doing? Why did she kidnap me and bring me over to such a damn place? What does she want? Money? Have they found out about my true identity?"Callum, how are you feeling now? Scared to death, huh? Did you pee in your pants? Hahaha! Shame on you!" Carol laughed her head off as she fixed her eyes on Callum's crotch.With a withering look on Callum’s face, he shouted at the top of his voice, "Carol, what the hell are you doing? Are you completely out of your mind? Why are you kidnapping me? Do you know it's against the law to kidnap someone?""Of course, I'm aware that it's against the law, but relax. I have no desire to kidnap you. I just wanted to introduce you

Henry took out his cell phone and dialed Charles's number.A moment later, Charles answered the phone and asked impatiently, "Who is it? Why are you calling me at such a late hour?"What had happened in the bar tonight made Charles feel down in the dumps, so he was a little emotionally volatile.Henry knew why Charles was in such a bad mood, so he replied in a low voice, "Charles, this is Henry. I’m sorry for disturbing you at such a late hour!""I know it's you. Just cut the crap and tell me what the hell you want. I’m half asleep!" Charles roared in a fury."Charles, I have a gift for you. Can you please come over to my house now?" Henry did not tell Charles that he had brought Callum over to his house, intending to give Charles a surprise.With a poker face, Callum looked at Henry and said nothing. He could not stand how Ethan and Carol kept messing with him and secretly swore to teach them a lesson once Charles arrived. Only then would t

Knock, knock, knock.There came a sharp knock at the door. Upon hearing that, Henry quickly ran to the door and reached out to open it."Henry, why did you ask me to come here in the middle of the night?" Charles walked into the room with a cigarette in his mouth and questioned Henry in an impatient tone."Charles, look who I brought here for you." With a smile on his face, Henry pointed at Callum, who was tied to a chair.Charles subconsciously turned around to have a look. The moment he saw Callum, he stood frozen in place.In a split second, something fell to the ground with a thud. It was the cigarette in Charles' mouth."Charles, I know you absolutely loathe this guy, so I found out his address and kidnapped him. Now that there are no outsiders here, just do whatever you want to him." As Henry spoke, he noticed that Charles's legs suddenly went limp as he kneeled on the ground with a thump.The moment Ethan and Carol saw Charles kneeling in fr

Ethan, Carol, and Henry had kidnapped Callum and brought him over to Henry’s home, intending to give Charles a surprise. However, Charles kneeled down to Callum as soon as he arrived, revealing that Callum was in fact Jim's boss.Almost everyone in Solbury knew what kind of a person Jim was. Whenever people heard his name, their hearts would skip a beat. Even so, Callum was now Jim's boss. One could only imagine the authority he held in his hands! Ethan, Carol, and Henry were knocked sideways upon finding out Callum’s real identity.Ethan felt extremely apologetic after finding out Callum's true identity. Oh, my God! How stupid was I to do such things? How could I offend and mess with Callum over and over again? I’m such an idiot!Carol shivered as she stood rooted to the ground, looking at Callum, who was sitting on the couch, teary-eyed.Although Carol could not believe that Callum was really Jim's boss, she had to admit to this mind-boggling

What Callum had said made Carol ecstatic. She could not believe that he would actually agree to get back together with her. A wild joy took hold of her.I knew for a fact that Callum couldn’t get over me. Haha! Even though Ethan comes from a rich family, his wealth is nothing compared to Callum’s. I’m over the moon right now though I must end my relationship with Ethan! God, I'm so blessed. I didn't expect that I would become the girlfriend of such a stinking rich man after losing the bet. Haha! Carol could not help but sneer with that in mind. She then wiped her tears away, walked up to Callum, and said with a pitiful look, "Callum, after going through so much these past few days, I’ve finally figured it out. The person I truly love is you. I only ended things with you because Ethan forced me to.""Oh, for real?" Callum asked with a poker face as he turned to face Carol."I'm telling you the truth. It was all Ethan's fault. He threatened me an

It was late at night when a Mercedes-Benz pulled over next to Callum on the side of the road.The woman in the car rolled down the car window and shouted to Callum, "Get in the car and come home with me!"Callum appeared confused as he stared at the woman's delicate face. With a frown, he asked, "Do you know who I am?""No, I don't know you," the woman replied flatly."If so, why are you asking me to get in the car and drive you home?" Callum became even more perplexed."I just drank some wine at the bar, so I'd like you to drive me home in case the cops ask me to perform a sobriety test on the way. Don't worry. I’ll give you money as a reward. Is that all right?" the woman explained to Callum in a soft voice."Oh, I see." Callum gave a slight nod, then said with a poker face, ''Well, I'm sorry! You should get a designated driver instead. I have to go now.''"Come on! I wouldn't have turned to you for help if I could get a designated driver.

Inside the lecture hall, Callum stared at the photos in his hand, his right hand trembling slightly as his face clouded with rage.They were photos of Callum and Carol sleeping in the same bed together. Despite the fact that some of them were rather blurred, it was apparent that Callum and Carol seemed to be very intimate."Where did you get these photos?" Callum gritted his teeth and questioned Lucas in a low voice."The moment I arrived at campus today, I saw photos of you and Carol pinned on the bulletin board. I then discovered that these photos were displayed in every lecture hall here in college, so Felix and I tried to rip them off. Although we worked hard the entire morning, we only managed to gather a few of them. I believe the rest of the photos might’ve been taken away by the others," Lucas explained to Callum with a wry smile.With that, Callum could not help but curse in a low voice, "Damn it! Who the hell did it?"All of a sudden, Callum
