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.

    Charlie still had no idea he had been exposed, but didn't wait until Tanya's concert was over to leave with Quinn, only informing Tanya's manager beforehand.On the way to the airport, he told Quinn, "It's rare for you to have a break, and you just did four concerts with Tanya. So stay put in Eastcliff and spend time with your parents."Quinn smiled and asked, "Is it just me or are you worried that I'll perform in Tanya's concerts again?"Tanya had twenty concerts in Oskia, having now done eight and having twelve left.As her crew's so-called Feng Shui consultant, he naturally was going to stick with the crew, while Quinn was also eager to collaborate with Tanya again.Their next stop was Luketown, and she could head over to make another guest appearance while spending more time with Charlie.Instead, he was telling her to stay home with her parents, which also meant he didn't want her to go.Charlie felt more or less embarrassed that Quinn saw through him, but defended himself,

    Quinn exclaimed in surprise, "But it's past nine, Charlie! Even if you want to hurry, does it have to be now?""I have to go," Charlie replied.Quinn groaned. "Do you miss Ms. Wilson?""Not Ms. Wilson—Mrs. Wade," Charlie corrected her."Nope," Quinn snorted, at once stern. "She's the third wheeler here and I'm understanding enough to let her have you.""Yeah, yeah," Charlie sighed, knowing that there's no beating Quinn in this argument.If he argued about first-come, first-served, Quinn would say she had known him since they were kids.If he argued that they were legally married, Quinn would argue that they had an engagement and that such promises weren't meant to be broken.Either way, she'd have just cause, and Charlie knew he didn't, so he avoided the fight.Giving up, he sighed, "Ms. Wilson it is. Anyway, I've been gone from home for days, so it's time I head home."Quinn didn't press that issue. "I'll drive you to the airport."Charlie shook his head. "I can send you ho

    As Tanya went for the carpet bombing strategy in the war of words, she was virtually killing the British loyalists.She also applied the hit-and-run technique, sending the voice message and then blocking them, before doing the same on every other social network.Celebrities' follows, unfollows, and blocking had always been something the fans took notice of.There were always those with too much free time who kept monitoring celebrities' follow lists. They would immediately take notice if a celebrity unfollowed another, and then spread it like wildfire on social networks.So when Tanya blocked that British artist, the fans were at once in an uproar.They had collabed and hung out plenty, always looking like good friends to the public.So Tanya blocking him really felt like a clash between titans, leaving fans confused and wondering if Tanya's fingers slipped.Still, they all soon decided that was not the case.If it was an honest mistake on a single platform, it was actually und

    Their media often portrayed Oskia in a bad light, warning citizens against traveling there with horror stories about security, robberies, and fake currency. However, they could see from Tanya's livestream that public order was decent and that there were no crimes.Worst of all was the fake-currency claim, as the audience never once saw any sign of cash payment.In the stream, everyone scanned codes to pay—be it for cab fares, purchases, or tickets. Worst of all, Tanya was getting a can of Coke at Rotunda Park and whipped out an Oskian dollar note, but the stall owner shrugged awkwardly, saying she had no spare change.And why did she have no spare change? Because no one used cash around those parts, for fuck's sake!Still, the stall owner was smooth enough to just give Tanya the Coke on the house.It just so happens that a young girl was buying baked corn nearby under her parents' supervision.

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??

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?

Violence towards woman, terrible grammar…I suggest the writer reads more books in English and learns how native English people speak.
