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.

    However, the negative promotion kept eating at Fleur. It was not as if she didn't trust Elder Barlin's abilities, but her luck always failed her whenever she came up against her mystery foe, and it was always she who lost in what few run-ins they had.So now it wasn't just the four earls or their bases being uprooted one after the other… All the scholars and members she had sent to find out anything they could still couldn't find a thing!That was why, knowing that Barlin had been fighting at the South Pole, Fleur immediately presumed things didn't look good for Barlin.She didn't even have any idea how many foes she actually had, but she knew that Barlin had been alone when he traveled to the South Pole, and then was almost hunted down by the Americans.That meant he was already in dire straits, and wouldn't stand a chance fighting a formidable cultivator on top of that.That was when Tarlon pointed out, "My Lord, the fact that Barlin traveled alone to the South Pole and mind-b

    Most importantly, the fact that Vera's ring didn't teleport Charlie to her side meant he had won, and the thought relieved her right then.Smiling in embarrassment, she explained, "No, I was just feeling a little headache, but I'm better now. We should just stay here and wait for Mr. Wade."Seeing that she was calm, Ruby was relieved and assured her, "There's no reason to worry. Mr. Wade is a great man, and I'm sure he's not in any trouble.""Yes," Vera smiled and nodded. "He'd return to us safely.-Meanwhile, at the Qing Eliminating Society headquarters, Tarlon rushed to Fleur's chambers, entering when he had permission and reporting urgently, "My lord, there's been a situation!"Fleur frowned. "What is it? What's so urgent?""Please take a look at this…" Tarlon said respectfully, handing over a specialized cellphone.Fleur took it skeptically and played the video that was loaded—the news of lightning sighted in deep Antarctica, and her brow creased further and warily.

    Meanwhile, at the Norway research base, all three women were sitting around a tea table by the window, looking out from time to time.Vera made tea, but none of them were in the mood to drink.Charlie had been gone for days, and his fate remained unknown. Vera definitely wanted to call his satellite phone, but was worried that might expose him should he be in a risky position, so she could only wait patiently.Ruby and Penny were worried for Charlie too, just like Vera, as he was traveling to the deep south of Antarctica. Still, as Vera didn't express it, it deterred them from doing so too.That was when Vera's phone screen lit up with a news notification.The research station had a Starlink receiver that operates 24/7, and the network here was not much different from that of a modern city. Vera's phone received many push notifications every day, but it was always on silent mode with vibration turned off so as not to disturb Penny and Ruby's cultivation. But just now, the scre

    As for everyone else, Charlie would keep the secret from them for now, judging the situation and then decide accordingly.He then thought he should explore the other levels of the plaza pagoda of the subterranean city too.However, when he tried to exit through the windows around the pagoda, he ran into invisible barriers that he couldn't pass through, preventing him from leaving.He didn't even know which floor of the pagoda he was on, only that there were no stairs or exits. It puzzled him—he had been teleported here by a portal that suddenly appeared in the temple called Trinity Heart, but all nine portals here corresponded to places outside Antarctica. He could go to those nine places located on different continents and in different countries, but he couldn't even leave the pagoda?Even as he was left unsure what to do, a detailed map of the entire subterranean city suddenly appeared in his mind. Moreover, it had eighteen portals marked into it, each usable with a different

    Charlie never expected to travel the entire subterranean city to find nothing, only to discover the spirit stones stored in Vera's ring all this time!And it was no exaggeration to say that it was a generous amount, for after an actual count, Charlie saw that there must be over two thousand!On top of that, every single spirit stone contained a huge amount of Reiki, and at least a dozen times denser compared to the density of Reiki in the Peace and Wealth pebble. The best ones had to be a hundredfold denser too!It was a huge number even for Charlie, and he felt like a wage slave who spent not more than a hundred dollars a day, suddenly inheriting a trillion dollars in assets. With so much Reiki at his disposal, he had no idea what he should even use it for.Naturally, he could directly absorb it, but since coming here to the subterranean city, he had come to realize how much of a waste that was.For cultivators, spirit stones were high-voltage batteries and an omnipotent power

    With that in mind, Charlie examined the ring engraved with the number 2804 on it and murmured softly, "If I were to design this ring, since I have already integrated the teleportation ward into it, I would definitely also integrate a pocket dimension into it, as void storage for any supplies I need to carry. "That way, each cultivator sent out to collect resources would not be a single person, but basically a full transport convoy. They could carry a copious number of resources back to the base through the portal, whether it was stacks of raw tree trunks, tons of boulders, or spirit stones. Anything stored in the void pocket will be brought back with relative ease."Brushing his fingers over the engraving, he murmured to himself, "I wonder if those cultivators were thinking the same thing?Even as he finished, he felt a warmth from the ring, followed by a mental incantation that appeared in his mind.Charlie had no idea what it did, but as he trusted this place, he didn't hesitate

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?
