Chapter 73
Author: Lord Leaf
Wide and radiant smiles were plastered on the in-laws’ faces when Charlie said that he would buy a better car for them tomorrow.

What Jacob didn’t realize was that he had just missed out on the top-spec 760.

Claire was a little worried. After returning to their room and washing up, she quietly asked, “Do you really still have the money to buy a new car? I have some secret stash here, take it tomorrow!”

Charlie waved his hands quickly. “No, I don’t need your money. I still have some, it’s enough.”

Claire mumbled apologetically, “I’m so sorry, I didn’t know my dad and mom would be like this…”

“What are you talking about? Your parents are my parents too. We are a family, I’m glad to be able to shower them with gifts once in a while.”

Charlie lay on his tiny bed on the floor and said with a gentle smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll go and get a new car for dad tomorrow morning!”

Claire smiled warmly. “Thank you, Charlie!”

Charlie chuckled. “The pleasure is mine, my dear!”

Claire suddenly b

    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

    Charlie pursed his lips. "Well, that complicates things."That's a huge bounty, and with the dead or alive clause, people are going to die trying, since it would mean a life of luxury for their family. Even the Mitsui bodyguards might stab Tanya in the back if they knew how much is being posted… And I know I'm being a pessimist, but even her boyfriend might not be able to resist that much money."At this point, we can't ask anyone for help, whether it's the local police or the American Embassy. If a single person in the building feels like making a billion USD, Tanya's dead."Pausing, he added, "But the Mitsui Residence would probably afford her some safety. They don't care about the money, and they have their own pride to protect. If anything, they would protect her however they can, but their ability to do so is the question.""Yes…" Nanako sighed worriedly. "That's why I asked you for help…""What do you think I should do?" Charlie asked."I-I hope you will protect Kokomi and

    The Iga clan was the strongest shinobi clan, but Charlie had nearly wiped them out in the Tokyo Rumble.The remnants had managed to change their strategy in time, recognizing their position and swearing fealty to the Ito family, sparing them the fate of destruction.Naturally, Tokyo Rumble was itself a clandestine free-for-all among different clans and mob outfits, so not many were aware of the Iga clan defecting.In fact, the Iga clan had actually been planning to buy time through defection and weren't truly sincere until they witnessed Charlie's strength on top of Mount Wintry.Since then, they were unfailingly loyal to the Itos.Be that as it may, soon after the client approached the Ito clan, they issued a billion-dollar bounty. Even Hattori Hanzo, the leader of the Igas, thought it was a great opportunity to make a lot of money. They'd be eating well for decades just from that deal, and it most certainly wouldn't come to them if they missed out this time.However, he promptl

    To no surprise, when Loreeen found out that Sachiko was busy, she turned to Charlie and Claire, saying, "Well, guys, I think Sachiko will be busy for a while. We can hang around after the concert and then give her a heads up before we actually leave."Claire smiled and nodded without hesitation, "It's only natural that we do. We're in no hurry anyway, and the hotel is quite near, so we don't have to deal with the crowds even if we wait. With the crowds mostly dispersing and Sachiko finishing up, it's only courteous for us to say goodbye since she got us those tickets."Turning to Charlie, she asked, "Right, Dear?""Sure," Charlie smiled. "You're the boss."At the same time, Kathleen noticed Yoshitaka's intention and smiled too. "Perfect. You guys go ahead and do what you have to. I need to talk to Mr. Mitsui about something myself."She knew Charlie wouldn't want Claire to know too much about his other life. Knowing Yoshitaka, after Charlie had managed to get ten concerts out of

    Naturally, a billion USD as a bounty was absolutely outrageous, leaving the trio gaping.Even they couldn't help wanting to fly to Japan and claim Tanya's head at that moment.Still, the blonde man couldn't help asking, "Isn't that too much for a mere celebrity? A billion-dollar bounty is unheard of, Sir… not even political assassination costs that much.""You don't get it!" The white-haired geezer snapped coolly. "If the dirty laundry of all those bigwigs gets out, you, me, everyone is dead! You are all well aware that Jeffrey was an inside job, and now that the crosshairs are on us, you're still worrying about the money?!"While the trio knew the gravity of the situation, the blonde man still pressed, "But are you sure they will be pleased about Tanya's death? I mean, we might rat them out just like her. If they are really bent on cleaning the house, they won't stop at Tanya, but the rest of us…"The white-haired geezer sighed. "That's exactly why we need Tanya dead, and soon! T

    The white-haired geezer was livid. "If they weren't paid off, that could only mean they're all dead. Aren't they supposed to be elite assassins? And with ninjas working with them, they have a clear advantage—how could they have been stopped?!""Well…"While the trio with him were sweating bullets, the blonde man braced himself and said, "Sir, we don't have the details, so it's all just speculation, but there may be someone who is incredibly strong in Tanya's entourage… or the Mitsui family might have noticed something and doubled her protection. Either way, our people have all gone MIA, and we can only make guesses about what happened."The white-haired geezer bellowed, "I don't want to guess what happened! All I know is that Tanya Sweet must die! The idiots who took interest in her influence and went on to recruit her just had to tell her and show her so many of our dirty secrets just to make her feel like she belonged!"Well, the senator we were all counting on lost, and we know
