The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

"Misunderstanding?"

Charlie sneered and said, "Everyone in Hong Kong knows about this matter. Even Solomon as well as Mr. Canyon is thinking of getting the bounty of thirty million Hong Kong dollars that you're offering. Do you really think that I would believe you if you tell me now that this is all just a misunderstanding?"

Shawn was extremely nervous at this moment. He only had one thought in his mind, and that was that he could never admit that he was indeed offering money in exchange for Janus's life.

He had seen Charlie's methods before, and he knew that Charlie was ruthless and would never show mercy.

Therefore, he could only clench his teeth and say, "Mr. Wade, you're really mistaken! This matter is all rumors in the underground world. Many people only know how to spread this rumor indiscriminately and are simply irresponsible..."

Charlie looked at him, nodded slightly, and said," Since you refuse to admit it, I will find someone to confront you on the spot, then. What do you think of Solomon? Do you want me to call him over?"

Shawn was even more frightened and scared out of his wits when he heard that Charlie wanted to look for

Solomon.

He could not be more clear about what kind of person Solomon was! Other things aside, Shawn had clearly watched the entire process of Solomon beating Tyson up this morning.

Shawn knew that Solomon regarded Charlie as God right now, and he would only want to do anything and everything that he could to make Charlie satisfied. If Charlie were to really call Solomon over, Solomon would definitely not hesitate to betray him. Shawn was also afraid that Solomon would attack him directly on the spot.

As he thought of this, Shawn hurriedly said, "Mr. Wade, this... there may have been a miscommunication. I did tell the people around me that I was dissatisfied with Janus and that I wanted his life. However, I didn't really want to kill him..."

When Charlie saw that Shawn was still refusing to admit it, he said coldly, "Shawn, do you think that I flew all the way here from the United States just to have a debate with you? I already know the truth about this matter. So what if you refuse to admit it? Moreover, did you forget what you did later even after you promised my father that you would not be bothered about what happened between Uncle Janus and Madam Fuller back then? Why did Uncle Yule have to fly all the way to Hong Kong to look for you again? Isn't it because you went back on your word and broke the promise that you made to my father after he died?!"

As Charlie spoke of this, he raised his voice a little and scolded, "You clearly made a promise to my father, but you went back on your word immediately after my father's death. Do you think that I will forgive you for something like this? Did you think that no one would come to find you to settle this score just because more than twenty years have passed?"

When Shawn heard this, he was instantly scared out of his wits. He knew that even if he could argue and defend himself in regards to Janus's matter, he would not be able to give Charlie a reasonable explanation for the reason why he had broken his promise to Curtis. He was the one who had gone back on his word first, and Yule had had to come to plead on Janus's behalf again. This causal relationship was from twenty years ago, and he could not refute it even if he wanted to.

Shawn was frightened, and his legs went weak. So, he knelt and choked up as he said, "Mr. Wade, I was indeed the one who went back on my word back then, but I was really obsessed and confused at that time. Please spare me this time on the account that I really did have a reason back then..."

After saying that, he looked at Janus again and blurted out, "Janus, please help to put in a good word for me to Mr. Wade, From now on, both of us can settle all of our past grudges: 1noveldrama

will treat you like my own brother in

the future. If I ever have any

intention to kill you again, you can let Mr. Wade break my body

into ten thousand pieces!"

Jenna, who was aside, also panicked at this time, and she hurriedly pleaded, "Janus, I have been married to Shawn for more than ten years now, and we also have a son. Please help Shawn to plead with Mr. Wade on account of our friendship for so many years..." Jenna's eyes were flushed red as she said that, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

Janus also could not bear it anymore at this time. So, he looked at Charlie and pleaded, "Young Master Wade, I was also at fault for what happened back then. So..."
