Upon hearing that, Whitney’s cheeks turned bright red in embarrassment.
“Yay! Godmother! If Uncle Charles ever chooses another woman to be his wife, I would never agree!”
Zendaya lifted her chin, looking quite pleased with herself.
After the group chuckled in amusement, Gwendolyn reminded Whitney to keep safe before handing
over a bank card.
“You’ll inevitably need money over there. Take this card, it’s my supplementary card. Use as much as
you need. Don’t worry about paying me back. Once Charles returns, I’ll collect the principal and interest
from him.”
Whitney was somewhat taken aback, unsure of whether to accept the card or not.
She was already very grateful to Gwendolyn for being willing to lend her the latter’s plane. If I were to
take her card too…
“Alright now, Whitney, you should keep this. When the time comes, my brother will pay me back. You’ve
joined our family for a while now, it’s about time to splurge on his account.”
Jasmine took the card decisively and tucked it into Whitney’s bag.
Gwendolyn nodded, “Alright, it’s getting late. By the time you get there, it’ll probably be dark. Be careful
on your way, and don’t hesitate to contact us if anything comes up.”
After bidding each of them farewell, Whitney finally boarded the plane, feeling a warm sensation in her
heart.
She looked out the window, where Jasmine was still waving at her with an excited expression.
Whitney waved goodbye to each of them before retracting her gaze and waiting for the plane to take
off.
The decor inside the airplane was understated, yet every item was incredibly luxurious, reflecting the
ultra-rich status of the plane’s owner.
Once the airplane cabin door closed, Gwendolyn and her companions began to leave.
Feeling a twinge of jealousy over his wife’s generous act, Cedrick draped his arm over her shoulder
and said, “Gwenny, I don’t even have a supplementary card from you. When can I get the same
treatment?
Gwendolyn was rendered speechless.
She playfully pounded Cedrick’s chest. “You’re the esteemed CEO of Jenson Group, the head of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the famous Mr. Jenson of Salinsburgh. You’re not short of money
so why do you need my supplementary card?”
Cedrick frowned, his handsome face taking on a pitiful look. “Honey, i’ve already handed over my
salary to you.”
As he spoke, Cedrick caught up with Gwendolyn pace.
The family subsequently left together, amidst laughter and cheerful chater
Meanwhile, outside a villa in Muprary.
Charles arrived with his men, but the local bigwig there had no intention of meeting him.
Isaac stepped forward, speaking to them fluently in the local language. “Didn’t Leonardo promise to
meet us today? Why the sudden change of plans?”
The man holding the gun wore a stern expression, and the light reflecting off his sunglasses was so
glaring that Isaac had to squint.
“Our boss has spoken. He agrees to meet but on one condition. Only Mr. Newton can enter. The rest of
you must wait outside.”
Muprary was an incredibly hot country, with temperatures often exceeding thirty-five degrees Celsius. If
one were to wait outside for too long, one might suffer from a heatstroke.
Isaac refused, “No. If Mr. Newton goes in alone, his safety cannot be guaranteed. The biggest
concession we can make is that I accompany Mr. Newton to meet Leonardo. If Leonardo still wants
money, then he should stop trying to cross our threshold.”
The man whispered a few words to his henchman, who then went in to deliver the message.
Leonardo stood by the window, looking down at Charles at ground level. His scarred face was
brimming with frostiness.
The woman beside him cooed, “Mr. Hollis, is that Charles from Chanaea? He is quite handsome, but
compared to you, he’s just a pretty boy. A man like you is what we women truly like.”
The woman leaned on Leonardo’s arm. Her seductive gesture had ignited the lust within him.
He bit her ear. “Sweetheart, be a good girl and wait for me in the room. I’ll be done very soon.”
“I’ll be waiting for you…”
Before leaving, the woman gave Leonardo a flirtatious glance. Leonardo extinguished the cigarette in
his hand.
At that moment, the henchman walked in, respectfully informing, “Boss, they are requesting that you
allow them to bring their assistant to the meeting. They also warned that if you want the money, you
should not push their limits.”
“Alright, let them come up, but make sure to thoroughly search them.”
Leonardo was sitting on the sofa, waiting for Charles to arrive.
The henchman went out to relay the message.
After being searched, Charles and Isaac were allowed to enter the villa.
“Mr. Newton, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Leonardo took the main seat in the hall before gesturing to the seat in front of him where Charles sat
down.
“Leonardo, I’ve heard much about you.”
In his early years, Leonardo was a mercenary with his own private army. As long as the price was right
he dared to take on any job, including assassinations.
Now that he was rich, he became the local bigwig-
Anyone who went there to start a company would be scared off by him.
His current line was running businesses that involved the black market.
Moreover, what he despised the most was the people of Chanaca. He himself was of mixed heritage
between Chanaca and Muprary, but due to his mother’s unique status, he was abandoned after
returning to Chanaca.
His childhood was marked by extreme hardship, which shaped his exceptionally brutal nature.
Anyone who didn’t meet his expectations would be subjected to his extremely cruel torment until they
breathed their last.
This time, the people who ran into Charles were mining in the mountain, inadvertently encroaching on
his territory.
In addition, since most of the employees in Charles’s company were from Chanaea, he captured them
as hostages.
Charles looked at Leonardo with a cold gaze and spoke in an icy voice. “Leonardo, we had an
agreement. You release the hostages, and I’ll pay you the ransom. A fair exchange. Are you now going
back on your word?”
With an air of nonchalance, Leonardo propped up his leg and signaled to his subordinate, who
immediately lit a cigar and handed it over.
Leonardo took a deep puff, then laughed and said, “Mr. Newton, you should know that I’m not one for
principles. I do things as I please. If I don’t like the sight of your men, what of it?”
“I’ve changed my mind about the previous agreement of five hundred thousand per person. Now, it’s
one million each, totaling ten million. Bring it to me now, and I’ll release them immediately.”
Infuriated, Isaac pointed at him and wanted to say something but was stopped by Charles.
“Leonardo, you should know that there’s nothing I, Charles Newton, am afraid of. Since you’ve chosen
to end our negotiations in this manner, there’s really no need for us to continue this conversation. Let’s
go!”
Charles stood up, but as he approached the door, someone blocked his way.
Leonardo didn’t even bother to stand up as he said, “Charles, just because I respectfully call you “Mr.
Newton, do you really think I’m afraid of you? If the negotiation fails, then so be it!”
With a swift pull of the tablecloth, Leonardo revealed a row of firearms hidden underneath it. He picked
one that felt right in his hand and pointed it directly at Charles’ forehead.
“What I detest the most are people from Chanacea like you.”
Although Charles didn’t understand the reason for the deep hatred in Leonardo’s eyes, he knew he
probably wouldn’t be leaving that place.
After the incident, he immediately got in touch with those back in Chanaca. At that moment.
reinforcemments were still on their wIV.
Even with a gun pointed at his head, there was not a trace of fear in Charles’s eyes. “Your hatred has
nothing to do with me. If you don’t let them go, don’t blame me for taking action.”
Upon hearing these words, Leonardo let out a scornful laugh as if he had heard something ridiculous
“Charles, don’t tell me you actually believe you can beat me on my own turf? If I don’t want you to, you
won’t be leaving through that door today.”
The two individuals faced off against each other within the room, while chaos had already descended
downstairs
