Chapter 14
Author: Lord Leaf
Jane was taken aback by such an extravagant appearance, wondering to herself if these guys were here for him.

She dismissed that thought very quickly!

Impossible! The poor loser wouldn’t know anyone so powerful.

Stephen got out from the third car and strode into Emerald Court. Jane quickly got up to greet him, but he ignored her completely and went straight to Charlie.

“Young Master, I’m here with the money.”

Then, Stephen gestured with his hand. The studly bodyguards walked into the store, placed the suitcase on the floor, and opened it.

It was full of cash to the brink!

Everyone gaped in extreme shock!

D*mn it!

The loser…oh no! What the guy had said was actually true!

Oh d*mn! Who was he!

Many people took their phones out, trying to take a picture or record a video. They wouldn’t want to miss such a shocking scene.

Stephen’s bodyguards immediately cleared the scene and pushed them out of the store. All they managed to snap was the back of Charlie’s head.

Charlie pointed to the cash and said to Jane, “You said that you’ve never seen so much cash before, didn’t you? Take a good look at it now.”

In a shocked daze, Jane mumbled with vigorous nodding, “Yes, I see it, I see it now…”

Charlie said to Stephen, “I want to see the manager of this store.”

Stephen nodded, took out his phone, searched through his contact list, and made the call.

As soon as his call was answered, he shouted, “B*stard, I am Stephen Thompson! I’m now at Emerald Court. I’ll give you one minute to get here now, or I’ll have someone burn down the store and then break your legs!”

Blood drained from Jane’s face, her eyes filled with horror when she looked at Stephen.

Who was this guy? Was he that powerful?

Her boss was a man of substance in Aurous Hill and he was also very well connected in the ‘organized’ group. Everyone treated him with great respect and honor! She couldn’t believe that there were people who dared to talk to him like that!

It had not even been a minute when a middle-age obese man came running from the office behind the store. He sprinted as soon as he saw Stephen and said, “Mr. Thompson, it’s such an honor to have you visit my shop. Why didn’t you let me know earlier, I could’ve come to greet you.”

Stephen hurled his hand across the man’s face, slapping him, and growled furiously, “You’re pretty cocky, aren’t you? Your staff even dared to mistreat our young master like this. Are you getting tired of breathing?”

Stephen knew that the young master had undergone a miserable life in the past decade, so he was extremely agitated when a lowly staff member treated him so poorly.

The chubby man was a little aggrieved when he was slapped hard on his face, but when he heard Stephen’s remark, he recoiled in shock.

Stephen Thompson’s young master? Oh goodness, if Stephen’s existence was already like a dragon in the mortal world, his young master would be the god from the sky then!

His body trembled in fear. He turned his head to look at Charlie, who stood next to Stephen. The young lad looked like an ordinary being, but he was Stephen Thompson’s young master!

The chubby man crawled to his knees and said, “Young…Young Master, I’m really sorry, please accept my apology.”

He then turned his furious gaze at his staff and shouted, “Which ignorant b*stard offended the young master? Show yourself!”

All the sales personnel shifted their glances at Jane instantly.

Jane wanted to retreat, but the chubby man jumped at her, grabbed her collar, and slapped her face while cursing, “You ignorant b*tch, how dare you offend our young master! You’re blind and stupid!”

Jane crouched on the floor after the slap and wailed, “Boss, I’m sorry. Yes, yes, I’m blind and stupid, please forgive me, please!”

“Forgive you?” The chubby man grabbed her hair, pulled her face up, and punched her in the face with his giant fist.

With one punch after another, blood started oozing from her face.

“D*mn it you b*tch! You want to drag me to hell, don’t you? Before you kill me, I’ll kill you first!”

Several teeth were knocked out of Jane’s mouth, the nose bridge that she had spent a fortune on plastic surgery for was broken, and her face was literally covered in blood.

She struggled and managed to break free from the chubby man. She crawled towards Charlie, grabbed his leg, and cried, “Young Master, I’m so sorry. I won’t do it again, I won’t judge people as I had done ever again. Please, please forgive me.”

Charlie glared at her coldly and uttered, “Serves you right!”

The chubby man gaped in shock when he saw her grabbing Charlie’s leg. He quickly ran over and stomped on her head, and shouted, “How dare you touch the young master’s leg! I’ll kill you!”

With the stomp, Jane fainted and became unconscious.

The man called for the guards at the door, “Throw this b*tch into the garbage dump in the back alley!”

“Okay, boss!” The guards immediately picked the bloody Jane up and took her out of the store.

Charlie looked blankly at the chubby man and said, “My wife likes this jade necklace. Wrap it up.”

The chubby man nodded vigorously and said, “Okay, I’ll do it right away!”

Charlie retrieved the black card and said, “Swipe this card.” Then, he turned to Stephen and said, “You can take back the cash now.”

The chubby man quickly interjected, “Young Master, since you like the jade necklace, just take it, it’s on the house!”

Charlie muttered, “I don’t need you to give it to me for free.”

The chubby man said timidly, “Young Master, please accept it as a token of gratitude from me!”

Stephen told Charlie, “Sir, since he wants to repent for his mistake with the gift, please accept it. Otherwise, I don’t think he’ll be able to sleep tonight.”

After hesitating for a moment, Charlie nodded gently. “Okay, thank you for the generous gift.”

The chubby man heaved a sigh of relief when Charlie accepted the necklace. If he didn’t, he was genuinely afraid that Stephen would not let him off the hook. With his influence and ability, making him disappear off the grid was as easy as flicking his fingers.

Then, Stephen asked, “Sir, do you need a lift?”

“No thanks,” Charlie shook his hand and said, “Where is your back door? I’ll go by myself.”

The onlookers felt as if they had entered a whole new world!

Several Rolls-Royce came to deliver thirteen million dollars in cash just to buy a piece of jade.

It turned out that the owner of the Emerald Court gave it to him for free!

Who was the man who looked rather unremarkable and ordinary? What was his background?

Many people posted the video of the incident on the Internet and it quickly became the hottest topic.

The netizens labeled the mysterious man as ‘the ultra-rich man’, ‘willful boss’, ‘mysterious elite’, and so on. There was even an activity called ‘search for the mysterious rich man’ that a lot of people were actively participating in.

Fortunately, when these people were shooting the video, they were pushed out of the store by the bodyguards, so Charlie’s image in their videos was very vague and blurry and it couldn’t be used as a reference for the manhunt.

    Julien nodded without hesitation. "No problem!"He didn't even know who Charlie intended to fleece, but he relished the idea of being Charlie's accomplice. In contrast, one might only be considered a business partner if it was charity, but inviting someone to something shady meant you were now a partner-in-crime, which definitely holds more weight than being a business partner.Hence, Charlie chose an Oskian-American crypto trader in the US, a titan in the scene. However, he also recently narrowly escaped jail time and seizure of all his assets by bribing friends in high places with over ten billion—it was basically cutting off a limb to survive. Any sane man would have left right away too, but he didn't, nor did he see the loss of money as all that horrible. He already paid his dues, and that meant he could stay Stateside without worry of arrests.Recently, he had been doing everything he could to build close ties with America's elites to strengthen his recent position in the cou

    Julien was determined as this was a perfect chance for him to show his loyalty. To curry Charlie's favor, a few hundred million USD sounded like a damn good deal.Hence, he assured Charlie, "If there's more to be done, just leave it to me! I'll take full charge!" Seeing that he was insisting, Charlie didn't argue and nodded slightly. "Alright, then you're on point for this one. And try to make it look real."Then, turning to Rachel, he said, "In the evening, report that Julien is going to manipulate the cryptocurrency market—say it's at least three times the profit. They will be delighted, and definitely try to squeeze you for more information, if not directly ask Julien's permission to buy in. We will arrange the groundwork in a couple of days to slowly reel him in."Rachel bowed her head respectfully right then. "Yes, Mr. Cooper. I'll get it done."Charlie nodded and sighed. "We will also need something convincing enough for him to invest everything he has, which would cost a

    However, a mind trick wasn't the best option if Charlie wanted control over Esteban—the man was a governor serving the Qing Eliminating Society and therefore close to their inner circle, if not having personal contact with Fleur.It was therefore likely Fleur would send an elder or some confidante to inspect Esteban at a moment's notice, and the mind trick could very much be noticed.That was why he needed Esteban to be his willing slave.Naturally, bribery or threats wouldn't work in that respect—he needed Esteban to mess up big time.It was clear Esteban wasn't completely loyal if he had the guts to make profits behind Fleur's back. Working from that logic, using more profits to tempt him would work, and he could well make a fatal mistake from there.Rachel had no idea what Charlie's real plan was, but had the feeling it was no pipe dream if he wanted to control Esteban either.Nodding without hesitation, she said, "Whatever you need, Mr. Cooper—just ask! I'll do my best to h

    Moreover, the staff tactfully left once they took Rachel to the lounge where Charlie and Vera were.Once it was just the three of them, Rachel glided toward the other two and bowed reverently, "Greetings, Mr. and Ms. Cooper!"Charlie smiled at her. "I'm guessing the Left Military Governorate was really pleased with buying the dip?" Rachel nodded repeatedly. "Yes! The governor was so pleased he even sent a praetor to reward me!"She then told Charlie about all the rewards Esteban showered her with, along with the Dragon Bronze Plaque.Taking it for a brief look, Charlie handed it back to Rachel and said quietly, "This Plaque plus the antidote that lasts 180 days definitely means progress. But that's still stingy of Esteban—he should have given your mother one too."He spoke nonchalantly, but it really struck a chord with Rachel.Being a Scholar wasn't an individual tragedy—it was generational, lasting several centuries.After all, Rachel was not the only Scholar in her family,

    Looking at it that way, the Rothschilds were really the perfect fortress.-Early the next morning, Rob freshened up and headed to Rachel's dorms while everyone else was having breakfast.Rachel herself dressed up prettily before heading to the airport with Rob, where the private jet Julien had arranged was already waiting. Within hours, they arrived at Cambridge where Julien's convoy had been waiting for a while, and quickly took them to a private golf course near Harvard.Harvard didn't have a golf course like Boston or Yale, and the college team had to train at nearby sports centers. Still, it was a luxurious place considering the alumni and exclusivity were so highly restricted that not just anyone could attain membership.Rob was surprised that they would go to the golf course directly. Naturally, he had a good swing as he had learned a little as a child of privilege, and was thrilled at the prospect of Julian inviting him for some golfing, which in turn meant appreciation.

    After meeting Julien and receiving advice from his girlfriend, Rob realized that having Julien's favor was more important than having his own family's favor.Hence, as soon as Julien called to invite him and Rachel to Harvard for dinner, he said yes without even asking Rachel.After that, he happily called Rachel and told her about the invitation.Rachel already knew everything, but still feigned excitement and exclaimed, "Great! That's definitely good news for you… But when are we going?""Tomorrow!" Rob chirped. "His private jet would be waiting at the airport and would take us directly there… He also said we can decide when, so we should go sooner, or wait a little?"Rachel giggled. "Sooner, obviously. It's a few hours of flight and the sooner we get there, the more respectful we'd be.""That makes sense!" Rob agreed. "Then we will go right after breakfast tomorrow!""Okay. I'll be waiting for your call tomorrow," Rachel replied.Esteban was naturally listening in on Rachel'

You writers are so cruel!!! Why knock out that poor girls teeth & break her nose etc?? If you were in our country, you’d be suited & in jail for assault,, SHE didn’t know this man was rich, why tortured this lady??? R u really like that in that cruel country??

My reaction exactly. Jane acted like a judgemental elitist snob, but the beat her nearly to death and leave her in an alley was not just vengeful it was utterly inhumane. Her public embarrassment and dismissal would have been sufficient in my opinion.

hahahaha serves the witch right...now Charlie's old haggard grandmother step up to the plate please

helpful story

I meant Charlie not Clark.

I want to get back to the place that I Was at yesterday

Not nice to belt a lady like that

Luv it!!!!

So Charlie gets mistreated his whole life but remains humble and genuine. But when he finds out he’s rich, he suddenly becomes just like the ruthless people who mistreated him when he was poor and without status? That’s disappointing. Wish the author wouldn’t fetishize this kind of cruel behaviour.

ok that was a little offensive to beat that woman and Charlie stood there and watched it I don't agree with this at all

he got lucky on that...️ but i’m not so sure abt beating up store clerk

I don’t like how they treated the woman so violently. The bowing down is too much.

It’s a great story but for beating the woman

Ruthless but interesting

Sweet the way Charlie handled the situation

I just hope rich people will be more compassionate and understanding to the poor class people in the society. She is wrong in judging the looks of the man but that is I think the common reaction since she is selling an extra ordinary item. She must not be treated that way.

To the brim, not brink

WTF is wrong with these people, who judges a book by its cover? And who slaps one of their employees, this is barbaric!

Ruthless for not damn reason.

yeah...this part was a bit too much

and just so you know it's sickening to promote violence in any shape or form

hell if you think this is bad try out PocketFM it promotes rape, pedophilia in 90 percent of its stories so far this is gentle compared

this story just became unbelievable. Disappointed in the writer.

I'll just pretend the violence aspect isn't part of the story.

This chapter went from 0 to 100 a little too quick. I was not expecting this omg

The appearance of violence in the story spoils its beauty. It was coming in nicely.

I was hoping he was going to stop it… nope he felt she got what she deserved?

I was hoping he was going to stop it… nope he felt she got what she deserved?

interesting and great service

Too violent. If he’s sooo humble, why would this be necessary?
