Donald’s wife, Alice, was a woman who devoted herself to supporting her younger brother.Based on her identity and family background, it would have been completely impossible for someone like her to marry into the Webb family.However, the reason why Donald had married her and brought her into the Webb family was entirely because Donald really loved her.After marrying into the Webb family, Alice began to do everything possible to help her brother, Nelson.Nelson did not have much abilities. He did not study much and his abilities were simply not good enough. When he was younger, he had taken a lot of money from Alice to start his own business but all of his businesses failed.When there was no other way, Alice had begged from her husband, hoping that her husband could give her younger brother a little part of the Webb family business. This would definitely help her younger brother out greatly. Although Donald looked down on Nelson, he helped him a few times on his wife’s accoun
When he really could not tolerate it anymore, he finally came out to help Nelson several times.When other people discovered that even the heir of a top and influential family such as Donald would step out to help Nelson and back him up, the other beggar clans naturally did not dare to offend Nelson anymore.Therefore, Nelson began to use his powerful connections to intimidate others and he eventually brought all the beggar clans and forces in the South Region into his own hands.He was now the leader of the famous Beggar Clan in the entire South Region.Nelson was also very proud of this as it was really very easy for him to make money in this industry. They did not even need to put in much effort at all. He simply had to arrange for his people to be scattered all around. After finding a place to set camp, they would lie down on the ground and write a miserable and pitiful message on a piece of white paper. After that, they would begin earning money just by lying down on the groun
Nelson was driving his Rolls-Royce at this time. His wife, who was two months pregnant, was sitting in the co-driver seat and his six years old daughter was sitting in the back seat of the car.The family of three had a smooth journey as they drove back to their villa.Nelson stopped the Rolls-Royce as soon as he drove into the garage. Nelson pushed the car door open as he prepared to get off the car. At the same time, Kelly, who was sitting beside him, also pushed the car door open.Their young daughter was already fast asleep in the back seat of the car.Kelly said to Nelson, “Husband, carry our daughter out and make sure that you place a coat over her. Don’t let her catch a cold.”Nelson nodded slightly. After stepping out of the car, Nelson reached out his hands as he opened the car door of the back seat.At this time, a few men dressed in black suddenly rushed towards him. They were each holding a pistol in their hands. As soon as they appeared, they pointed their pistols di
He hurriedly said, “What are you going to do? My daughter is innocent! Don’t get her involved in this!”The man in black sneered before he said: “How many babies and children have been kidnapped and abducted by your beggar syndicate? Aren’t they innocent too? So, do you mean to say that Nelson Bishop’s daughter is a human but other people’s children are not humans at all?”Nelson was shocked!Before Nelson or his wife could regain their senses, they were forcibly taken into the helicopter by the men dressed in black.After that, their daughter was also brought into the helicopter with them.One of the men in black took out a syringe before he injected Nelson’s daughter with a tranquilizer.This shot of tranquilizer would be able to put Nelson’s daughter in deep sleep for at least another ten hours.After that, the helicopter ascended quickly as they flew towards the bridge where Charlie currently was.***At this moment, on the bridge, Gibson’s family of six were all in shock.
As the forklift got closer and closer, Charlie asked the people around him to clear the path and make way before he waved at the forklift driver and said, “Come, put him here!”The forklift driver immediately drove the bulletproof S-Class Mercedes-Benz all the way to Charlie.Isaac replied at this time: “Don’t act hastily. Do not lower his car now. Otherwise, he might hurt the young master if he decides to step on the accelerator as soon as his car is lowered. Remove all the four wheels on his car before putting him down.”So, a few workers from the construction site hurriedly took their equipment with them before they went up the forklift and started removing all four wheels from the car.At this time, there was a fat man sitting inside the car. The fat man had a horrified expression on his face as he shouted out loud from the car, “Who are you guys, and what do you think you are doing?”Charlie ignored him completely.After all four wheels of his car had been removed, the forkl
Charlie has been recording him with his cell phone all this while. Therefore, he was naturally recording the scene of this fat man being welded and trapped to death inside this car.The fat man looked at Charlie before he started threatening him with all of his might, “I’m warning you! Let me go right now! Our boss’s brother-in-law is Donald Webb from the Webb family! I know that you must have certainly heard of Donald Webb’s name before! You can’t afford to provoke him at all! If you dare to do anything to me today, my boss and his brother-in-law, Donald Webb, will not spare your life!”Charlie smiled before he said, “Your boss? Your boss is already on his way here. So, he’ll also be seeing you off to death later!”As he spoke, a helicopter descended quickly from the sky!A few minutes later, the helicopter has already landed on the ground. Several people dressed in black escorted Nelson and his wife, Kelly down from the helicopter.Nelson was shocked when he saw the scene before
Nelson replied in horror, “Brother, my brother-in-law, Donald is also one of the most reputable and influential people in the entire South Region. He will not let you off just like this if you take my life today. Instead of taking revenge in the same manner, why don’t we turn our hostility into friendship instead?”Charlie smiled indifferently before he said, “I’m sorry but you are not worthy enough to become a friend of mine! Even Donald isn’t worthy enough! The Donald that you see as a god in your eyes is nothing but a load of crap to me!”After that, he said again, “You, with the last name Bishop. Don’t be anxious. I will deal with you one by one. I will send your brother on his way first before I have a very good chat with you after that!”Immediately afterwards, Charlie looked at the fat man in the Mercedes-Benz before he said coldly, “You abduct and sell children and you do not have a conscience at all. You assist the evildoer into committing wrongdoings and anyone has the rig
Charlie replied coldly, “Throw him into the river!”The helicopter flew towards the surface of the river beside the bridge immediately. After that, the helicopter suddenly disconnected the cable and the Mercedes-Benz crashed into the river at a very fast speed.Since the Mercedes-Benz was originally bulletproof, the body of the car was very heavy. Moreover, after the steel bars and steel plates were welded on the car, this made the car even heavier at this point.Therefore, the moment it plunged into the river at an incredibly high speed, it immediately formed a spectacular splash of water! The splashing water even formed a small scale rainbow under the sunlight!Immediately afterwards, the Mercedes-Benz disappeared without any delay as it sank directly to the bottom of the river.Everyone present knew that the fat man was bound to drown to death.After all, the car has already been completely welded. Therefore, it was impossible for him to escape even if he was a deity or an i
Ares LLP was the biggest law firm in the States, and only the best of the best were recruited as associates.If Jimmy got to pick ten of their partners, he was basically taking a huge chunk out of their human resources.Moreover, the partners' salaries would be very expensive. With Jimmy included, eleven of them meant over a hundred million US dollars at minimum. Ares would definitely be maimed if they had to pay that much money while losing ten of their elites! Naturally, Jimmy didn't feel confident about achieving that, and he asked Charlie, "Mr. Wade… Don't you think it's too much? Would Nate even agree to that?"Charlie shrugged. "Of course he won't agree if you're the one asking, but he would definitely say yes if it were Julien."Julien almost rolled his eyes.The man was truly ruthless, ready to inflict so much damage at the drop of a hat.Worst of all, he was going to play the villain for Charlie.Still, he said confidently, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade! I will pressure him
However, Jimmy realized something important even as he sighed in relief. "Wait, Mr. Wade… I know I should settle things in the family Stateside, but won't I be arrested upon arrival?""That's Julien's department," Charlie chuckled and turned toward the man. "Tell your butler not to send the evidence to the feds. If it has reached them already, ask to have it back and tell the feds they saw nothing."Julien promptly nodded. "I'll text him right now. You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Wade."Jimmy remained worried. "But sir, I think Nate's not going to let this slide. The man is cunning—he deliberately dug a pit so we'd fall into it, and he gathered all the dirt he could on us to be used as leverage when necessary."Charlie shook his head. "That's no big deal. Julien can make sure that you're fine even if the feds get the evidence."Julien nodded nearby. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. The decision remains in your hands, either way. Just say the word, and it's 25 to life… otherwise, not e
The fact that Jimmy was a partner in Ares LLP already meant he had skill, while Matilda had herself been retired for years and definitely had lost her touch a little. So, having someone like Jimmy who had stayed on the frontlines all this while would definitely be no issue.And in turn, it was a good thing for Jimmy as it was better than the kennels either way.Charlie then asked Jimmy pointedly, "You say you're interested, but are you sincere about it?"Jimmy nodded without hesitation. "Yes, absolutely!""No regrets? We're talking about ten years here.""None, absolutely none!""Do you know what to say if anyone asks?""Yes, of course! I chose to further my career here in Oskia, and it was absolutely voluntary! That's what I'd say even if my family asked!"Charlie nodded. "Good. Then, you will have two weeks. Go home and set your affairs in order and report in for work afterward.""No problem!" Jimmy nodded repeatedly, actually surprised and grateful that Charlie would let hi
And yet, Julien was suddenly clapping his hands, and exclaiming excitedly, "Yes, right! We should get his wife and son over too for a happy reunion!"He then paused and quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no! I mean, they should each be caged with one empty cage separating each of their cages. They can see each other and talk, but there will be no touching. How dare he flex on me—I gotta teach him a lesson to remember!"Jimmy dropped limply on his rump, and Matilda beckoned for Paul to help him up while turning toward Julien as she pursed her lips. "Please, Mr. Rothschild… Even if you don't accept his apology, don't bring his family into this. It's against Oskian tradition—you'd insult your family's name!"Julien shrugged, not hesitating to retort, "What do your traditions have to do with me? If I mean to hurt him, forget his family—I'll drag his dogs over too!"Seeing that Julien was so furious, Charlie decided to stop him, or he might actually go through with it."That's enough, J
Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h
Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des
As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside
Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e
Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott
