Soon after, Charlie took out a check and wrote an amount of ten billion.“Uncle, I haven’t told you about my identity as Ornell Donovan’s grandson. I’m sorry about that. Since your store has been destroyed, just close it down. You can use this money to build a large store after you get out of the hospital, or you can think about any other business you want.” Charlie handed the check to Harris.Charlie had wanted to give a little money to Harris and Salvino for a long time. However, knowing their characters, Charlie was aware that they would not accept his gift so easily. So, he decided to help them when they truly needed it. This time, their store had been destroyed, and Harris had been stabbed, so it was time for Charlie to help them.“Ten billion? Charlie, I won’t accept it!” Harris was shocked by the amount Charlie had given him.For someone like Harris, this figure had never even crossed his mind.“Uncle, when I was poor, you often lent me money and even helped me a lot. Conside
On the other side.Inside David’s villa.In the courtyard of David’s villa, a muscular guard with sunglasses perched on his face was patrolling the area. The entire villa was under very tight security, as if not even a mosquito could sneak in.In the living room of the villa. “Mr. David, the group demanding protection fees went to Charlie’s friend’s house. They stabbed Charlie’s friend’s father. Knowing Charlie’s nature, he probably won’t sit idly by,” Peter reported to David.“Huh, so what if he doesn’t sit still? Does he dare to attack me like he attacked Yaheem?” David scoffed.David continued, “If that’s the case, then I will grant his request! I have set a trap; now it’s just a matter of waiting for him to strike!”Of course, David was aware of the attack Charlie had carried out against Yaheem. Since Charlie and he were also arch-enemies, David was afraid Charlie might attack him too. So, David began by studying the situation, preparing quietly, and then setting the trap.If Ch
“Her name is Esme; my family and I can’t control her at all right now. Mr. Charlie, if you can help me, I would be very grateful,” Estella chimed in again.“I’ll just try. Whatever the outcome, we’ll see later,” Charlie said. At five o’clock in the afternoon, at the gates of SMA 1 San Setillo.At the school gate, a young man with dyed yellow hair was riding a modified Volkswagen, looking as if he was waiting for someone at the school gate.Charlie was also standing at the school gate, waiting for Estella’s sister, Esme, to come out.“Got any cigarettes? Give me two,” Alfie approached Charlie.“No.” Charlie glanced at him.“Tsk. You came out without even bringing cigarettes? Useless,” he said in a condescending tone, then turned and walked away.Charlie smiled and shook his head, simply ignoring him.At that moment, the school bell rang, and students poured out of the school one by one. Charlie took a photo from his pocket, which was a picture of Estella’s sister.About seven or ei
“Darling, don’t do that, or my sister will scold me again; I don’t want to hear her nagging.” Esme quickly grabbed her boyfriend’s hand.“Wow, you’re lucky; if it weren’t for Esme, I would’ve beaten you up badly today!” Alfie pointed at Charlie angrily.Charlie scoffed, “The lucky one here is you. If you dare to do it, the only thing I can guarantee is that you’ll end up in the hospital or crematorium today!”Right after that, Charlie turned to look at Esme and said, “Esme, is he your boyfriend? Why is your taste so low?”When the blonde young man heard this, anger flashed in his eyes.“Wow, you’re looking for death, huh? How dare you say that to me!” His eyes widened, showing a fierce glare.Immediately after that, Alfie rolled up his sleeves, revealing a dragon tattoo on his arm. Clearly, he was intentionally showing off the tattoo to intimidate Charlie.“Is that all? I think you watch too many useless movies!” Charlie shot back with another taunt.In San Setillo City, there are tw
“What did you say? Someone like you leading thousands into battle? Are you leading them in your dreams?” Alfie sneered again.Esme also smiled and said, “Uncle, don’t boast! What’s with my sister? Why does she have such a shameless boyfriend like you?”“Well, just think of it as me boasting.” Charlie smiled and shook his head.Alfie ignored Charlie, turned to Esme, and kept bragging.“Esme, do you know who protects this place? It’s Oscar. Oscar is the boss of my boss,” Alfie explained again.“So, who’s Oscar’s boss?” Esme asked curiously.“Oscar’s boss is Alby, of course! He’s the first leader in San Setillo City. Right now, Alby and David are at odds!” Alfie spoke fluently.Charlie, who was drinking, couldn’t help but smile when he heard Alby’s name mentioned. The Alby they were talking about was, of course, the Alby who managed Enigma Security for Charlie.“Wow, darling, your knowledge is quite extensive, huh?” Esme’s tone sounded admiring. “This is nothing. I even know who’s behi
“Alfie, damn it, who did you mess with?” Deon’s face looked a bit grim.Esme was too scared to speak, as there were now many people surrounding her. The difference in numbers between the two sides was too great.“Alfie, I can’t help you solve this problem, you deal with it yourself,” Deon said.Deon clearly knew that he couldn’t defeat the group, which greatly outnumbered the people he had brought. After speaking, Deon waved his hand. He then turned around and got on his big motorcycle, and the dozen people he brought also mounted their own bikes.“Boss Deon! Wait, don’t go!”Alfie immediately felt very anxious.However, Deon ignored his plea.“Vroom!”With the roar of his big motorcycle, Deon and his crew quickly left the scene.“Wh-what’s going on? Why are they all leaving?” Esme panicked.Even though Esme had been anticipating a fight, what she expected was victory, not defeat!“I... I...” Alfie looked helpless in his current situation.“Brothers, surround them!” shouted the red-ha
The young man with red hair was truly astonished to see Alby, who seemed obedient to Charlie. He knew exactly who Charlie was, the ruler of San Setillo City and the CEO of the San Setillo branch of Enigma Group! How could he, just an ordinary youth, offend someone like him?“Yes, that’s me.” Charlie nodded slightly.“Brother Charlie! Forgive me!” The red-haired young man was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground, his body shaking uncontrollably!“Brother... Brother Charlie!”The other young men beside them also quickly knelt down, all of them trembling in fear. They all knew they had made a big mistake! They felt like ants compared to Charlie!“Even though you all are a bunch of monkey kids, I won’t bother you if you don’t annoy me. You’re not just naughty but also rude; let me teach you a lesson!” Charlie said casually.Then Charlie waved his hand, “Take care of them, give these naughty kids a lesson!”“Understood!”After the big man in black replied, they rushed toward
Even if Charlie were asked to try, he wouldn’t dare do it. He was here to help Estella educate her younger sister, not for...“Anyway... anyway, I haven’t done it! Even though I often hang out, I’m not stupid! I’m willing to date him because I think he’s a great fighter and part of a street organization. My only goal is for him to take me into it! I won’t let him take advantage of me!” Esme exclaimed.“You’re a girl. Why do you think you want to go there?” Charlie asked, very confused.Esme fell silent for a moment, then said, “Because the people on the street are strong. If I find a boyfriend like that, I won’t have to be afraid of being bullied at school!”When Charlie heard Esme’s reason, his heart trembled a little. “Is that why?” Charlie murmured.Hearing such an answer, Charlie felt a slight unpleasantness in his heart. It reminded him of his high school days when he was a poor kid with no money, no power, and no background. He was always bullied.Back then, Charlie always wish
