“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
David couldn’t gamble; if Charlie’s gun was real, he’d be finished with a single shot. He felt that a person like Charlie wouldn’t buy a fake gun.When Charlie heard David asking him not to shoot, he sighed in relief. However, Charlie maintained a flat stare to remain convincing. “Don’t shoot? Hehe, isn’t this a great opportunity to kill you? The moment I pull the trigger, you’ll be dead, right?” Charlie sneered to reassure himself.“If you shoot, the moment I die, my eight bodyguards will definitely kill you! The bullets in your gun aren’t enough to take them all down!” David said confidently.“Ah, I see,” Charlie pretended to agree with David’s words. Soon after, Charlie said, “So, what do you think we should do now?”David wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then forced a smile and said, “Don’t shoot, and I won’t order my guards to take you out. Let’s go our separate ways, and everyone will be safe. How about that?”Charlie seemed to ponder this.After a moment, Charlie repli
Once, when Charlie joked like that, Lydia would immediately deny it. She would argue against Charlie’s words, but now she did not.“Lydia, what’s wrong with you? Is something wrong?” Charlie looked serious.Lydia stared into the distance and then spoke softly, “I came to say my final goodbye to you.”Lydia appeared calm.“Say goodbye to me?” Charlie was momentarily stunned.“Lydia, you... what do you mean by saying goodbye? Where are you going?” Charlie asked, puzzled.“I’m going to the capital,” Lydia said, still calm.“Going... to the capital?”When Charlie heard the word “capital,” for some reason, his heart started to race. The capital was very far from San Setillo City. The capital was located to the north, while San Setillo City was in the south!“Lydia, you... you’re joking, right? You’ve had such a good time in San Setillo City, why would you go to the capital?” Charlie forced a smile.When Charlie heard the news that Lydia was going to the capital, the first feeling buried de
Because of that, in Charlie’s heart, he had long considered his family to be gone. Outside the door, Darren looked annoyed when he saw the door being slammed shut by Charlie. “Charlie, you are so arrogant and rude! Your temper is terrible! You even slammed the door in my face; you’re destined to be a parasite for the rest of your life,” Darren said coldly. After speaking, Darren quickly walked to his car and left the place. “It’s Grandpa’s 80th birthday, should I go or not?” Charlie muttered to himself.After thinking for a moment, Charlie called his mother, who was undergoing treatment for her illness abroad, to ask how she was doing. Charlie’s mother didn’t push him, but she indirectly encouraged Charlie to participate. The next morning, Charlie drove his Lamborghini to Avernon County.Avernon County was Charlie’s hometown. Charlie’s grandfather was the founder and CEO of the Whitford Group in Avernon. Although he no longer handled company affairs, he still held significan
