The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Shawn instantly heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Charlie's last request.

At this time, he truly felt what it meant to survive a catastrophe.

Since that was already the last thing that Charlie would be asking him to do, it meant that he had not only managed to keep his life, but he had also managed to preserve his assets worth twenty billion US dollars over the next ten years.

The compensation that he needed to pay to Janus was just a drop in the bucket compared to this.

As for the villa, it was also just a trivial matter to Shawn.

Although he would have to go to Eastcliff to repent for three months, this was regarded as an extrajudicial and lenient treatment for Shawn, who had just received a death threat.

Therefore, he naturally did not dare to have any dissatisfaction in his heart.

On the contrary, he could finally relax a little.

So, he immediately expressed his attitude clearly to Charlie as he said sincerely, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade, I will leave for Eastcliff immediately as soon as I finish completing all the other matters!"

Charlie nodded and said, "By the way, let me remind you that your life and wealth are now closely related to Uncle Janus's family from today onward. If Uncle Janus's family is safe, you will be safe too. However, in the event of an accident and even if it's just an accident, I will make sure that you take joint responsibility for that as well. Do you understand?"

Shawn was an experienced and shrewd person. So, he naturally understood the meaning behind Charlie's words.

Charlie wanted to make sure that he would never dare to threaten Janus again from now on, and that was the reason why Charlie was tying Shawn's own personal safety to Janus.

This way, Shawn would never dare to find any opportunity to assassinate Janus, and he would even be afraid that Janus would meet with any shortcomings when he slept and dreamt at night.

So, Shawn then said without hesitation, "I understand, Mr. Wade..."

"Okay." Charlie nodded and said, "I want you to recall the bounty that you offered to the people in Hong Kong now." 1

"Yes, yes, yes!" Shawn took out his cell phone immediately and said, "I will do it right now!"

Bounties had existed since ancient times.noveldrama

It had a little more traditional sense of ritual compared to the simple and brutal method of paying and killing.

In Hong Kong, bounties were released through a specific intermediary, and this intermediary had to be authoritative enough to gain everyone's trust. 1

When a person wanted to release a bounty, he could not simply do so by casually mentioning how much money he would pay a person after he kills someone so that there would be a large number of killers who wanted to do it. There was a set of traditional and harsh regulations in this field.

Shawn had released a bounty of thirty million US dollars, and he had had to pay thirty-three million US dollars in advance to the middleman.

Out of this sum, thirty million US dollars would be the reward for the bounty itself, whereas the remaining three million US dollars would be the intermediary's handling fee.

The intermediary would only release

news of the bounty to the entire underground world after he had received the money. All killers have no doubts at all after the intermediary had released the news of the bounty as they usually had Very high prestige and influence in the underground world.

Moreover, being an intermediary was not as simple as being a broker for the deal. Sometimes when the bounty was this big, it could easily lead to many people vying for it. In the end, it might even lead to disputes because it was simply impossible to determine who was the real winner. Content Belongs to

At this time, the intermediary would also need to come forward and make an objective judgment to determine the true owner of the bounty.

Shawn called the intermediary immediately and switched to speakerphone in front of Charlie and the others as he said, "I want to recall the bounty for thirty million US dollars that I released earlier."

The other party asked, "Mr. Long, are

you sure that you want to recall this bounty? This bounty is the highest bounty that has been offered in Hong Kong over the years, and many killers have been dispatched today. I'm afraid that everyone would not be so motivated anymore even if you were to offer a bounty again in the future."

Shawn said without hesitation, "I'm positive that I want to recall it immediately! Right now!"

The other party was silent for a moment before he then said, "Mr. Long, the handling fee of three million US dollars will not be refunded if you decide to recall the bounty. You have no objection to this, right?" 4 Shawn blurted out, "None at all!"
