When Antonie saw eight men lying on the ground with blood flowing all over, he thought he was seeing things and was so scared that he wanted to turn around and run away. However, his legs had become soft and weak in extreme fear, and he couldn't take a step at all.Aman was in the exact same state as he was.He stared at Charlie in amazement and kept telling himself, ‘I must be dreaming, I must be dreaming!’Angus and Jilian were also standing in a daze, unable to believe what they were seeing.At this time, Charlie reached out and took the Beretta pistol from Antonio's hand, turned it to his forehead, and asked with a smile, “You like pointing guns at other people's heads, don't you?”Antonio was so scared that he felt as if he was about to lose his soul, and he murmured in panic, “No… No…”Upon seeing this, Aman hurriedly wanted to retreat quietly, but at this time, Charlie suddenly pointed the muzzle of the gun at his right knee and pulled the trigger decisively!Bang!Anoth

Antonio couldn't help trembling all over because of Charlie's ferocity and murderous intent.Charlie's words made Antonio feel extremely frightened because he knew that Charlie was only saying that he would not kill him for the time being. Whether Charlie would ultimately kill him or not depended on his mood.As he thought of this, he cried and said to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, we really just had a small misunderstanding today. Now that you have broken my knees and I’ve paid a painful price, I hope you can see my sincere attitude and won't treat me like that… I really know I was wrong…”Charlie smiled and said, “Look at you... why are you crying? Sicilian men shed blood and sweat but not tears. You are crying like this in front of your daughter. Are you worthy of being a Sicilian elder?”Antonio suddenly felt ashamed.Although he often talked about the spirit of Sicily, when a gun was pointed at him and he had just been shot, all he wanted was to ask Charlie to let him go. At this time,

He was shocked and subconsciously touched it, only to find that his right ear had been shot off!The Italian-made Leta 92F pistol had always been the light weapon that the Italian Mafia was most proud of, and the power of this pistol was indeed amazing. The powerful muzzle's kinetic energy did not penetrate Antonio's right ear but smashed it into pieces directly.Antonio covered his ears and screamed in agony. Jilian also cried and covered her father's ears with her hands as she questioned Charlie angrily, “Are you crazy?! Are you a fascist?!”“A fascist?” Charlie laughed and said, “How's that possible? Unlike your father, this great Sicilian man may have some relatives with Mussolini.”After saying that, Charlie looked at Jilian with a sharp expression and scolded, “Young lady, I advise you to be more objective. It was your father who wanted to kill me first. He wanted to shoot me in the head just now. You saw it. If I didn't have some skills, I would have become a corpse beyond r

Charlie pulled Angus over and looked at Antonio as he spoke, “Let me introduce you. This is Angus. He runs a roast goose restaurant in Oskiatown, and there is a gang called Burning Angels who come to him every month to extort three thousand US dollars from him. What's your connection with the Burning Angels?”“They have no connection with me…” Antonio subconsciously tried to excuse himself, but before he could finish, he suddenly realized that this might be the reason why Charlie had come looking for him in the first place!In other words, Charlie had known all along about his relationship with the Burning Angels!Aman, who was standing nearby, was completely devastated.He thought to himself, ‘Damn it, why am I so unlucky! Charlie clearly came here today to make trouble for Antonio. How did I end up here at Antonio's place at just the wrong time?! If I had been half an hour late, Antonio might already be dead, and I wouldn't have to offend Charlie or take a bullet…’Antonio was n

In Charlie’s opinion, there were two ways to crack down on organized crime from Europe and the United States.He could either do it as he did before and wipe out gangs such as the Canadian mafia trafficking in people or the ruthless Mexican cartel forces directly—wipe them all out, kill, or capture them.Alternatively, he could treat this organized crime like a durian fruit. Firstly, strip off all its thorns and then devour the remaining flesh.Although Charlie wasn't interested in petty money, since he was here today, he couldn't leave empty-handed. Since he planned to let Angus grow and expand in the future, Antonio's family would be the first feast he prepared for Angus.Antonio did not care about the 75% profit Charlie was taking anymore. He just wanted to stay alive and preserve some family assets. If he had the chance in the future, he might seek revenge against Charlie. If not, at least he would be alive.However, when he heard Charlie say he would send him to Syria, Antoni

Charlie nodded and said, “Okay. Then, let your eldest son take over your position from tomorrow. I will let Porter of Ten Thousand Armies fly over to make a handover with him and let Porter get to know him. If he doesn't obey in the future, we will know who to point the gun at.”When Antonio heard about Ten Thousand Armies and Porter, he was even more shocked.The name ‘Ten Thousand Armies’ was known to almost everyone in the mercenary field and gang field.Antonio naturally knew about this legendary organization as well as Porter's legendary experience. However, he never expected that Charlie could call Porter to come to New York at any time, giving people the feeling that Porter seemed to be one of Charlie’s subordinates.Aman couldn't help but start to re-analyze the relationship between Charlie and Ten Thousand Armies.In the past, he thought that Ten Thousand Armies had taken half of the Wade family's assets, so it would protect the Wade family, but now, it seemed that Charli

At this moment, Antonio and Aman no longer dared to defy Charlie in any way. So, they immediately followed Charlie's request and dispersed their subordinates and families. Less than ten minutes later, all of them had evacuated from Zano Manor.Charlie released his Reiki to probe, and upon seeing that the entire manor was indeed empty, he instructed Angus, “Angus, go park the car at the entrance.”“Okay, Mr. Wade!” Angus nodded and quickly left the wine cellar.Charlie then looked at Antonio and Aman and said calmly, “Both of you, get up and go to the entrance.”Antonio looked at his crippled leg and choked up as he said, “Mr. Wade, I… I can't walk…”“That’s right, Mr. Wade…” Aman also said despondently, “I can't walk either. My right leg is in excruciating pain. I can't even stand…”Charlie said coldly, “One of you has a broken right leg, the other, a broken left leg. You can support each other as brothers since you can't be father-in-law and son-in-law anymore.”Jilian couldn't

However, they were well aware that if they didn't return within just an hour or two, their boss wouldn't suspect a thing until at least early the next morning. As they hoped for a miracle, the door was suddenly pushed open.The five men looked expectantly toward the door, only to see the last person they wanted to encounter, Charlie, stepping into the room. What shocked them even more was the two individuals hobbling in behind him, each supporting the other and hopping on one leg.However, they soon realized that these ‘peculiar individuals’ were not strange for the sake of being strange, but because both had their other legs dripping with blood from gunshot wounds. At this moment, Will, the leader among the men and the most observant, suddenly recognized one of the men with a broken leg and exclaimed in horror, “Mr. Zano?!”Upon hearing this, the other four men widened their eyes in shock and instinctively looked toward where Will was staring. As soon as they did, all four men we

Raymond may have worked abroad for years and was a veteran in antiques, but he was still lacking when it came to reading between the lines.Taking Mick's words at face value, he promptly shook his head, "No, you really shouldn't. I wasn't planning to come back here to work, so you mustn't mention me to Ms. Moore either."And unlike Mick, he really meant what he said, while Mick was saying the complete opposite of what he was thinking.Naturally, Mick didn't believe Raymond, even presuming that Raymond was a liar like himself.The more Raymond said he didn't want to return to Vintage Deluxe, the more he thought he was.Hence, he asked despite knowing the answer, "Well, what are you planning to do now that you've returned to Aurous Hill?""It's been years of traveling for me, so I was just getting a little tired," Raymond admitted. "I'm planning to set up a small business in Aurous Hill, most likely here in Antique Street. That's why I'm visiting—do be neighborly when I set up shop
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6433
Meanwhile, Raymond had no idea that he was being targeted as soon as he returned to Antique Street.He had reached the middle where rows of three-floored buildings stood, the largest on the street, and where Vintage Deluxe was. It was not closed yet as tradition on Antique Street was for stalls to open in the morning and close in the afternoon. In comparison, shops opened later and closed later.With the difference of two to three hours, they could afford to have customers who had lower purchasing power or were just window shopping to stroll through the outdoor stalls. Then, when they were gone, customers with actual purchasing power would come on their own time.As Raymond arrived outside Vintage Deluxe, Mick just finished his meeting with his employees, summing up, "So, does anyone have anything to do tonight?"They all shook their heads, answering as one, "No!!!"Mick nodded. "If there's nothing else, stay back for overtime. Ask for some spicy crayfish and beer for dinner."

However, Raymond had accomplished the assignment Curtis had given him years ago, so he had no intention of staying at Aurous Hill and remained unrepentant despite Jasmine's pressure. That was why he could ask to resign without hesitation, even urging her to let him go despite the pain.That was why Mick was now worried that Raymond would return to reclaim his position as manager."Keep an eye on him for me," he told Trippy. "Tell me if anything comes up right away—I will make it worth your while.""Alright!" Trippy agreed to it. "Don't worry—I'll call right away if anything comes up."Once Trippy hung up, Mick gathered the handful of Vintage Deluxe employees.They were all his close allies he had groomed after he took over Vintage Deluxe. Even if Mick hadn't been succeeding in his business, he was succeeding in building his own forces. Anyone who didn't obey his orders had since been removed, and the remaining ones were basically his co-conspirators, embezzling a considerable am

As it turned out, the bean counters of the Moore Group had been suggesting that Jasmine axe Deluxe Vintage and other antique-related businesses.After all, Aurous Hill was hardly the heart of the nation's antique business—not even a hub, and Vintage Deluxe wouldn't grow on such soil.Moreover, their revenue wasn't optimistic.While the business wasn't exactly falling off after Mick took charge, the lack of experience amongst the management team meant they were struggling to break even.And for the bean counters, keeping Vintage Deluxe meant no profits—even net losses in the immediate future. Right now, they might still be able to package it nicely and sell it off, and selling a fixed asset coupled with brand value would more or less turn a profit. But once Vintage Deluxe started incurring losses and the brand value diminished in turn, it would be reduced to zero completely.In other words, the value of Vintage Deluxe was on a springboard—sell it anytime now, and the value would be

The Mr. Crane from the other end of the call was Mick Crane—the current manager of Vintage Deluxe, and a man whom all of Antique Street fawned over.Mick was the assistant manager to Raymond back then, and his skill in the antique trade was at best moderate. However, thanks to his friendly personality, he had managed to secure himself many decent connections down Antique Street.As such, once Jasmine had fired Raymond, Mick had taken over his position as caretaker manager. She was also aware that Mick didn't have the skills to do well as a manager, and her plan had always been to keep him as a caretaker before she found someone better.As her ties with Charlie had strengthened and he had started helping her, her position in her family had skyrocketed. However, that also meant she couldn't watch over most of Vintage Deluxe's operations.Now that she was the head of the Moore family and the leader of a dynasty worth billions, a small business like Vintage Deluxe was even less signifi

Moreover, Raymond's old identity had various occupations connected to antiques. So, his plan now was to head over to Antique Street, find a place to rest his legs, and then get a shop of moderate scale and cheap rent to start a business in Aurous Hill.He headed to the precinct at Antique Street to register his face and other details into the database, reinforcing his legal certification. The precinct then issued him a visa so that he would have clearance to stay at a hotel for a while.Most of Antique Street's stalls were closing shop by the time he left the precinct, but he picked up his backpack and went for a stroll.It was not that different from before, though he thought he would never come back at the time…Still, he hadn't been there for long when a vendor recognized him and exclaimed in surprise, "Hey! Aren't you Mr. Cole? From Vintage Deluxe? When did you come back?"As things hadn't changed down the street for the businesses or the environment, Vintage Deluxe was stil

Jacob shrugged. "If Hannah's debt is cleared, then she's fine now, no?""Yeah," Elaine replied. "I heard from an old friend not two days ago, saying that the document of her non-arrest… non-prosecution or whatever was sent in. Once it's approved, she's free to go home.""Most likely non-prosecution," Charlie replied."Right, I think that's it!" Elaine nodded repeatedly and sighed unhappily. "She's really been let off easy. She should be arrested and jailed for at least ten years."Jacob couldn't help sighing. "Come on, dear—Mom and Chris were out of line, but things are terrible for them now as it is. There's no reason to hope for the worst for them since Harold and Chris are still too hurt to work. It's thanks to Wendy's income that they have a living, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to survive."Then, worried that Elaine would get upset that he might be siding with his brother and mother too much, he quickly added, "I'm not taking their side or trying to get their case reinvest

Charlie actually had to change his opinion of Elaine after seeing her ready to kill Jacob earlier but getting all clingy now.Despite her many flaws, Elaine was the one half of their marriage who was earnestly in love.As for Jacob, he didn't seem to have any genuine feelings for Elaine at all.The mere mention of his past with Elaine always left him grumbling and complaining, but now, it was clear that Elaine was his best choice. With his attitude and the way he did things, he and Matilda would have split up by now even if they had gone to the States together.In the end, Jacob simply had too many of the flaws common amongst men his age, but while others would have no more than five out of twenty of those flaws, he had eighteen.As such, from another perspective entirely, the only woman who could tolerate Jacob now was Elaine and only Elaine. Coincidentally, her straightforward personality and tendency to get violent was the perfect counter against all of Jacob's flaws, reducing

Elaine nodded, emotional as well. "Well, Claire's finally home after being in the States for so long. Let's stop being clowns already—let's go home!"Jacob nodded, utterly relieved and teary-eyed. "Yes! Let's go home!"Meanwhile, Claire was left dumbfounded even as she watched while Charlie was left wiping the sweat off his brow—they had really just snatched victory from the jaws of defeat there!And it looked like they had truly succeeded in clearing any suspicion Elaine had of Matilda, and she most likely would do her best to avoid running into Matilda as well.That way, all the nonsense he had said wouldn't be exposed.Still, as Claire came to her senses, she told Charlie, "Darling, that was amazing! You somehow managed to talk your way out of that!"Charlie chuckled in embarrassment. "I had no choice but to sacrifice my pride for the peace in the family."Claire hugged his arm and giggled happily, "There's no victory without sacrifice. You're the best, dear!"-Meanwhile,
