Yoshitaka turned toward Charlie, keeping his tone especially calm as he said, "Mr. Wade, the bounty was just issued minutes ago—calling the cavalry wouldn't be too late right now. As long as we keep anyone suspicious out, we'd be threatened a lot less."Pausing, he sighed. "You really shouldn't have refused my suggestion. If I had just called a chopper, everyone, including Ms. Sweet, would have been evacuated safely in fifteen minutes. Whatever outfit is coming after us, they'd never reach us that quickly."Charlie growled coldly, "Sure, take your chopper, but Tanya can decide for herself."Tanya quickly said, "I'm with you, Mr. Wade!"Yoshitake cringed a little.He was going to diss Charlie a little and try to salvage some dignity, but he didn't expect that even Tanya wasn't on his side.Hence, he promptly pressed, "Mr. Wade, you just said your people will be coming as phase two of our defense. Where are they now? When can they arrive?""You don't have to worry about that for n
Chapter 7036
From Yukihiro's point of view, a little probing would only leave him with a bad taste in his mouth at this point.Yoshitaka would definitely use the Mitsui Group's influence to harass the Yamaguchis in every way, framing it as a campaign against mob violence or even reviving cold cases.It would definitely inflict a lot of losses on the Yamaguchis, if not outright deny them a year's worth of income.Even if they were seething, they wouldn't self-destruct to bring the Mitsuis down, and might even take the insult lying down.However, if they really had to make enemies of Yoshitaka, Yukihiro knew he had nothing to lose.The Mitsuis were the top dogs of Japan, but they did not own the country. Even if they had the money, the Yamaguchis had guns. If they wanted a fight, they had it.And when physical violence was brought to the table, it was Yoshitaka who would have a problem.At this point, Yukihiro was not giving up on the one billion.It was either paying him the same amount or a

The voice on the other end replied, "Speaking. To what do I owe the pleasure, Mr. Mitsui?"Yoshitaka's brother growled low, "I'm not the one looking for you. It's Yoshitaka."Beside him, Yoshitaka reached out and snatched the phone, snapping at once, "You really don't know what's good for you, do you? Sending assassins after my guest?! How dare you?!"Yukihiro cleared his throat in embarrassment on the other end, "Mr. Mitsui, Tanya is the one we're after, and she's American—is she really your concern?""You fool!" Yoshitaka bellowed. "She's not just my guest! She's signed under the Universal Music label! I'm one of the shareholders, and you say she's not my concern?!"Pausing, his voice turned cold as he threatened, "Don't waste my time. You have two options—rescind the bounty and tell every Yamaguchi to stay away from Tanya, or you will all be enemies of the Mitsui Group! If you refuse, I will make sure that the Yamaguchi-gai will be rooted out entirely!"Yukihiro sighed. "This
Chapter 7034
As the biggest mob organization in Japan, the Yamaguchi-gai had dozens of thousands of members, holding strong social status and influence over Japanese society. It was even alleged that their business scale had reached sixty billion back in 2014.Naturally, the figures were hardly precise as the media had deliberately inflated their strength for sensationalism. They did so by counting every business affiliated with the Yamaguchi-gai to get those numbers.For example, take one of the hottest Tokyo red-light districts, which the mob only had significant control over but did not actually completely own. It supplied a hundred million USD in yearly revenue but was summarily put on the Yamaguchi-gai's ledgers. Even if they considered the red-light district a company subsidiary, it meant the Yamaguchi-gai still didn't own all the shares of said subsidiary—60%, at best.Moreover, the revenue was just the total earnings without including operating costs like rent, raw ingredients, alcohol

Charlie walked over to Tanya, taking eyeliners and makeup brushes from the dressing table as he said, "Someone in America has put a bounty on you worth a billion dollars, so you're still under threat in Japan until you can reach Oskia."You and Trevor must therefore follow my instructions to the letter if you want to live—do whatever I tell you to do, go wherever I tell you to go, and don't ever question me. Understand?"Taya's face was pale as she blurted, "A-A billion… Just to kill me?!""Yes," Charlie replied, nodding. "Are you shocked by that amount of money? Hell, it's the first time I've ever heard someone wanting a woman dead for that much money. You might even make a Guinness World Record if you reveal that after your retirement."Tanya smiled wryly. "I'm sure the money isn't because I'm worth that much. They're worried that I'd talk too much and reveal their dirty secrets if I stayed alive…"Beside her, Trevor quickly said, "Well, since they want you dead so badly, you ju

Hearing that Charlie was willing to help, Nanako was relieved and quickly said, "Don't worry. I'll send Hanzo over to you in Tokyo Dome. Should I tell Kokomi, too? So that the Mitsuis will fully cooperate?""Sure," Charlie nodded. "Give Kokomi the full picture. I'm going backstage to Tanya. If the bounty is revealed and her entourage finds out, things could get worse."Pausing, he then added, "Also, warn the Mitsuis not to call the cops. I know how efficient and the standard in which they operate here in Tokyo, and they could make things worse too.""Understood," Nanako quickly nodded. "I'll contact Kokomi right now!"With that, Charlie hung up and hurried backstage.The dome was circular, with the concert stage on the northern end, while Charlie's VIP box was in the southern end.It was a little far, so Charlie ran at top speed to avoid any surprises, all while calling Claire.Once she answered, Charlie spoke calmly, "Hey, Dear. You should go back to the hotel with Loreen later

How many surprises did Claire need to clear her brain and see the reality of what and who Charlie really is? What so funny is that she keep on worrying for Charlie's safety but she already seen him in fighting. If we count the number of surprises and worries from Charpter 1 to now, it's ridiculous..
Not great. This sucks to try and read!!!
If Charlie keeps cutting off all these businesses partners of Emgrand group he will run that business into the ground. How is it even possible to cut all these partnerships out without anyone questioning
I think it sucks how they suck you in then only let you read 3 pages and expect you to buy the chapters. It would cost $100s of dollars to finish this book!
honestly author!!. this is how you will handle things if some talk to you or your other half. WUSS!!.
i encourage everyone to stop reading this book.
Why do the credit per chapter change. I find it unfair that some are 12 or 14 or 9 or 13. It should be standardised 10 per chapter. Credits ain't bought for in odd numbers and so should chapters be read with even number credit of 10 please
really amazing and mysterious this son on law 😍 this happening in this world judging the person the way it looks outside
The difference is arrogance & don’t judge a book by its cover
he's now feeling like God,
true talk, what's the difference between him and his oppressors
I’m not going to lie, Charlie is starting to irritate me. At first I felt bad for him. But now, it’s so annoying the way he’s reacting to every situations he’s in. Like, we get it, you are rich.
