Chapter 19
"Who do you think you are, then?" Wendell looked askance at Charlie as he said coldly," You are
nothing but a loser, you can''t even watch your wife stray around. It’s such a waste for ire to be
with you, why don''t you let her go for her to be with m e? I can give her whatever she wants!"
Ayer of ice hovered beneath Charlie’s face. He started with a cold and deep voice, "I''ll give you
two choices. One, apologize to ire and take back everything you said in front of everyone or two,
I''ll make your family''spany go bankrupt. Decide now.” 4
"Hahaha! Are you kidding me? Who the heck do you think you are to make my family go bankrupt?"
2
Wendellughed out loud as he shot a contemptuous re at Charlie. Obviously, he did not take
Charlie seriously.
"Are you out of your mind, you crazy piece of sh*t? Are you daydreaming? Do you have any idea
what ourpany''s worth is? What can you do to make us bankrupt? Haha!” 2
Charlie wore an inexpressive expression on his face while looking at Wendell for a while as if he
was looking at an idiot. Then, he retrieved his phone and called Stephen. 1
"In three minutes, I want to see the bankruptcy and liquidation of the Jones family''s business. Let
their debts hit the ceiling!"
Three minutes to make apany with a worth of billions go bankrupt was utterly impossible!
Wendell red back at Charlie in great dismay and said, "D*mn, you are so full of lies! Do you really
think you are the ultra-rich man on the Inte?" 2
Then, he continued coldly, "Loser, stop pretending, I''ll give you two choices too. One, kneel and
apologize to me, then divorce ire immediately. Two, I''ll get someone to beat the h*ll out of you
and cripple you, and let you see for your pathetic self how lovely and sweet ire is with me.
Decide now! I''ll give you a minute to consider your options!" 4
Charlie nced at his watch and said, “You have one minute left. Are you sure you don''t want to
save yourpany even a little?" 2
"F*ck off! You have thirty seconds to decide! If you don''t get on your knees right now, I''ll make you
regret i t forever!" Wendell threatened. 2
"Twenty seconds!"
"Ten seconds!"
"Five seconds!"
"Time''s up! Don''t me me for being cold-blooded, you asked for it!" 2
Wendell shook his cor and gestured at the bodyguards around him, he was ready to give the
loser a good beating.
Right at this moment, his phone suddenly rang.
Wendell was caught by surprise. He looked at his phone and saw that it was his father, so he
quickly answered it.
"Dad, I''m at the hotel now, where are you?"
On the phone, Wendell''s father snarled indignantly, ”D* mn it! What the h*ll did you do this time?
Who did you offend? Now all shareholders are selling our shares like hotcakes, our share price has
fallen by more than 80%!" 7
Then, his growling pursued, "The bank suddenly came to our door to demand debt repayment! All
partners have suddenly suspended their projects with us and halted the settlement! Our capital
chain is broken!
We’re left with dering bankruptcy and liquidation!" 2
Blood drained from Wendell’s face as he listened to the loud growling from the other end of the
line. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead. 2
"We''re screwed! Completely screwed!"
Wendell opened his mouth, wanting to ask something when he heard through the phone a sound of
a siren followed by the sound of breaking the door, and the police officers asking his father toe
to the station for an investigation. 1
Suddenly, his legs went jelly and knelt in front of Charlie. His phone fell to the floor and shattered. 1
The night breeze was blowing lightly, his body and heart were cold as ice. 2
Seeing such a scene, the bodyguards exchanged cautious nces and dared not to step forward. 1
Trembling in fear, Wendell asked Charlie in a dispirited voice, "Who the h*ll are you, really? You did
this, didn''t you?"

The onlookers were equally surprised. After taking a call, Wendell Jones suddenly knelt in front of
the Wilson family''s son-inw. What was going on?
Charlie looked down at him. Then, he bent slightly and whispered, “I gave you a chance to choose
your option, but you didn''t choose wisely." 1
"I''m sorry, I''m terribly sorry. Please, please forgive me, please spare me! There''s nothing between
ire and me, I never touched her. The contract with Emgrand Group, it wasn''t me who helped her!
Everything I said was just lies! I made them up! Please, please, I beg you! Please spare me and my
family!" 2
Wendell knocked his head on the floor and apologized profusely. Never did he expect that a lowly
son-inw of the Wilson family could have so much power and influence in his hands! A simple
phone call was what i t took to make his family bankrupt! 1
When he lifted his head to look at Charlie, he felt that the in and emotionless face was more
horrible than the devil! 4
Someone who could ruin his family in a few minutes was out of his hands! He was not in the ce
to offend him!
Charlie shook his head and said, "You should be grateful, at least I spared your life! Otherwise, your
whole family would be dead by now!” 3
Wendell''s face was as pale as a sheet of paper and his body was trembling violently. 3
Charlie continued in his cold voice, "To tell you the truth, yes, I am the ultra-rich man in the video. If
you don''t want to die, don''t tell anyone about my identity o r I can''t promise you and your father will
be alive until tomorrow morning! Mum’s the word!” 1
Then, he patted Wendell''s face, stood upright, and walked into the hall, ignoring Wendell. 1
As for Wendell, he crouched on the floor,pletely stunned. He didn''t dare to resist even the
slightest against Charlie’s act to humiliate him.
He watched as Charlie walked into the hall and he quickly crawled into the hall too.
He looked around frantically until he saw ire. Then, he rushed towards her, knelt at her feet, and
wailed," ire, I’m sorry, I shouldn''t have spread such ridiculous rumors about you. I have nothing
to do with Emgrand Group’s project. Please, please spare me!" 3
ire was taken aback by his abrupt reaction that she quickly dodged backward and stumbled into
a warm embrace. 2
ire looked back and saw that the person who was embracing her was Charlie.
Charlie saw her as soon as he came in. She was dressed to the nines and shone like a bright star
in the crowd. She was so alluring and mesmerizingly beautiful.
Seeing Wendell rushing towards ire, he quickly hugged her in his arms to prevent her from
falling and red at Wendell in disdain. 3
Wendell hurriedly crawled away, fearing that he might enrage Charlie again.
ire frowned in confusion. "What’s wrong with him H
Charlie whispered while holding her, "There must be something wrong with his senses, just ignore
him." 1
Although they were a couple, they did not have any intimate contact before. ire blushed until her
ears were red as she felt Charlie''s warmth circling her. 3
Awkwardly, she wiggled her way out of Charlie’s embrace and said, "Erm, Mr. Wade from Emgrand
Group should be here already, I''ll go have a look..."
