Although what Charlie wanted most right now was to find a way to turn the situation around, defeat the Delacroix family, and get the Enigma Group back up and running, the most pressing issue at the moment was meeting his basic needs. Filling his stomach and then finding a place to shelter from the scorching sun and rain.

Charlie had already spent the remaining five million on Estella’s hotel stay. He didn’t even have enough money to eat.

“We need to find a way to borrow some money first,” Charlie muttered.

After that, Charlie took out his phone and called several bosses in Babylon City. All these bosses had been introduced to Charlie by Ornell during the banquet.

Charlie called several times in a row, but the result was the same. None of them answered his calls.

“The last time at the banquet, they praised me and made all sorts of promises. Now that the Enigma Group has fallen, they won’t even answer my calls!” Charlie shook his head and let out a deep sigh.

    “Gun!”“He has a gun!” When the beggars saw the gun in Charlie’s hand, the expressions on their faces changed immediately. Charlie pulled the trigger of the gun in his hand. Boom! Charlie shot the short beggar right in the shoulder. “Ah!” the short beggar cried out in pain. Some of the beggars beside him were so terrified that they quickly knelt down. “Sorry, we’re sorry! We were wrong! Please hit us, but don’t shoot!” They begged for mercy. “Get out of here!” Charlie growled in annoyance. Another beggar carried the injured short beggar and fled. As soon as they left, Dario ran out from the heavy rain.“Charlie, did you just fire your gun?” Dario looked surprised. “Yeah. Some dogs tried to bite me,” Charlie said, narrowing his eyes. “Fortunately, there are no lights here. They shouldn’t be able to see your face clearly. We need to leave quickly. We can’t stay here any longer. If they call the police, it will be a hassle!” Dario said.“Yeah!” Charlie nodded

He immediately pushed Maria away and ran to the toilet. Hoeekkk! Arvid vomited in the toilet. Finally, what had been forcing its way out was successfully expelled. In the end, Arvid used hand sanitizer and washed his hands several times before leaving the toilet.“Arvid, what just happened to you? I was so worried,” Maria hurriedly asked.

    “Thanion, don’t say that. If you hadn’t tried your best to protect me and Charlie, we wouldn’t still be standing in front of you!” Ornell said.This time, Charlie and Ornell were alive, and they could safely and healthily stay outside; it was all thanks to Thanion’s desperate efforts to protect them.“The Enigma Group, which fought hard all its life, is no more. Honestly, I…” After Ornell said this, his voice slightly choked.Charlie could imagine that Ornell must have suffered much more than he did. The reason was simple: Ornell had dedicated his entire life to the Enigma Group. He had even regarded it as his own child. “Ornell, I don’t know how long my body will last. After I die, the Delacroix family’s last worries will disappear. Then you and Charlie will be in danger. Follow my advice. Go out of the province or go abroad!” Thanion emphasized his words. “I’ll consider it.” Ornell nodded in agreement. After visiting Thanion, Charlie and Ornell walked outside the hospital.

    Charlie followed the doctor into his office. “The patient is in the advanced stage of liver cancer. In addition, the patient is under significant stress, which has left him in shock. Although he is now receiving treatment, the cancer has progressed to a point where medication alone cannot cure him. The patient has an estimated lifespan of about one month,” the doctor explained. “Cancer... cancer!” Charlie’s face turned pale, and his body slumped weakly onto the chair he was sitting in. It felt as if a heavy stone had struck his head.Charlie felt as if the sky was dark, collapsing, and falling onto him. This reality felt suffocating, far more suffocating than the collapse of the Enigma Group. To Charlie, Ornell was like a great mountain and a tall tree in his life. But at this moment, Charlie felt that the mountain had collapsed and the tree had fallen right in front of him. “Doctor, is there no way to cure him?” Charlie asked, his teeth clenched in anxiety. “The patient’s a

    “Okay!” Hundreds of men dressed in black behind Varyn rushed forward, leaving a dozen to protect Varyn. “Black Widow, face Dario!” Varyn commanded again. Black Widow nodded and quickly rushed toward Dario. Black Widow’s movements were incredibly fast, closing the distance to Dario in an instant and then engaging him in combat. Although this Black Widow wasn’t as strong as Dario, she still possessed considerable strength. Holding Dario off for a while was not a problem for her. “Damn it! Get out of the way!” Dario shouted angrily, unleashing all his power, but it took him a moment to defeat Black Widow. After Black Widow grappled with Dario, other men in black hurried toward Charlie and Ornell. “Bastards!” Seeing hundreds of men in black rushing closer, Charlie clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth.

Your bank card may be involved in money laundering and illegal transactions; therefore, your account has been temporarily frozen!” said the bank staff.When Charlie heard this, it felt like his heart was stabbed and crushed! The ten trillion he had was Charlie’s last hope! “Money laundering? Are you kidding? I’m not involved in money laundering! Why did you freeze my bank account without a clear investigation? Why?!” Charlie growled hysterically.“Sir, we are investigating suspected account freezes. Our actions are reasonable and legal. If you are not suspected of money laundering or illegal transactions, we will certainly unfreeze it,” the bank staff replied calmly.“Well then, tell me, how long will the investigation take?” Charlie asked through clenched teeth, struggling to hold back his fury.“It’s still uncertain. It could be a month, a year, or even longer, depending on your luck,” he said flatly.After this, Charlie stopped shou

    Charlie looked back at the Enigma Building behind him, now adorned with signs and seals at the front of the towering structure.Charlie knew that the Enigma Group’s business empire had collapsed in an instant! At this moment, Charlie felt that his confidence had crumbled. Since Charlie met Ornell, Enigma had been his greatest supporter, while Ornell had been Charlie’s strongest ally. But now, everything was gone! Enigma’s operations were halted, and Ornell was arrested! At this time, ordinary employees and management who were expelled from the building were all gathered in front of Charlie. After all, all the Enigma executives had been taken away, and now only Charlie remained. “Mr. Charlie, what happened?!” “Yes, Mr. Charlie, Enigma is so powerful; why suddenly is there an arrest like this?” “Mr. Charlie, what is really happening?! Please tell us!” For a while, countless questions filled Charlie’s ears. At that moment, Charlie looked very pale. His entire body s

    Seeing Ornell’s reaction, it seemed he was well-acquainted with the Harrington family. Could it be that he also feared this family? “How could the Harrington family side with Arvid!” Ornell said through clenched teeth. “I’ll tell you the truth. I am engaged to the youngest daughter of the Harrington family. In other words, I have formed a marital connection with the Harrington family!” Arvid said proudly. “You... the Delacroix family, forming a marital connection with the Harrington family?” The expression on Ornell’s face suddenly changed. “I understand now. Why the Delacroix family orchestrated the game against the Goldmere Family in the faraway country of Celvaris. It’s all because the Delacroix family relies on the Harrington family!” Ornell said, his teeth clenched. “Haha, congratulations on your correct answer, but now, you better worry about yourself.” Arvid laughed with satisfaction. Regarding the Harrington family that Ornell and Arvid were talking about, Charlie
