Chapter 1812


    Emi, who was beside him, chimed in agreement, "This is indeed the case. Initially, we had an


    intensepetition with the Takahashi family, but who would have thought that Machi and Eikichi


    would die. This caused a deep impact on the Takahashi family." 2


    "Moreover, now that the Matsumoto family was massacred, the effort of Yoshito, who had tried hard


    to catch up from behind, has now be futile. As a result, the shares of the family’s business has


    been proportionated. Even the Takahashi family is no match for us, not to mention other families. If


    we take the opportunity to seize the resources released by the Takahashi and Matsumoto families,


    we will be Japan''s leading family very soon!” 3


    Yahiko nodded without a hint of happiness, then he sighed, "I intended to fight like a warrior and


    compete for resources with the Takahashi family fair and square. However, I didn''t expect the end


    results to turn out to be like this, and I have now won so effortlessly." 2


    At this moment, Charlie looked at Yahiko in admiration. Commoners would have jumped in


    excitement upon receiving such news. 2


    To his surprise, Yahiko had thought otherwise.


    At that moment, Emi advised, "Brother, we have won the battle regardless we have or haven''t


    fought a good fight. After all, we weren''t the culprits behind the

    tragedies that befell those two families. Let''s just saydy luck has smiled upon us. The imperative


    action t o take now is to grab this opportunity to strengthen the Ito family''s position!" 4


    Yahiko did not answer instantly. He turned his head t o face Charlie instead. He then held his fist


    and said these words from the bottom of his heart, "Thank you, Mr. Wade. Had it not been for you,


    the Ito family would have ended up worse than the Takahashi family. Had i t not been for you, the Ito


    family and Takahashi family would have been trapped by Yoshito, and we would be gone. You’re


    our savior!" 2


    Upon watching this scene, Emi immediately rose to her feet before kneeling on one knee. She


    sped her fists, and she said sincerely, "Mr. Wade, pardon


    Yahiko for his inconvenience, allow me to bow to you o n behalf of the Ito family as a show of our


    gratitude!" 4


    Nanako stood up hurriedly and followed suit closely behind her aunt. She knelt, and with much


    gratefulness, she said, "Charlie-kun, allow me to bow t o you too!"


    Charlie sighed lightly, then said in a serious tone," Rise up, you two. You don''t need to do this. I


    offered m y help by chance only. It was your fortune that has helped the family escape from this


    tragedy.” 3


    Emi and Nanako rose up upon hearing these words.


    Emi said to Yahiko, "Brother, Mr. Wade is right. Apart from his help, it was indeed our family''s good


    fortune! Not only can we share a portion of the Takahashi and


    Matsumoto families'' fortunes, but we also can take the initiative to form a partnership with the


    Schulz family in view that we are his only option since the fall of the Takahashi family." 1


    "No way!"Yahiko said without hesitation, "From now o n, we''re not dealing with the Schulz family in


    any way!"


    Emi was surprised and asked, "Why not, brother?!


    Haven’t you been looking forward to this partnership?" 3


    Yahiko said in a very strict manner, "That was because I hadn''t known the Schulz family well before


    the incident! Now, we know their ways of getting things done, which is way too hostile and beyond


    boundaries. They even showed no mercy to a child! If we were to work with this kind of family, it is


    like asking a tiger for its skin-a futile effort!" 2


    Emi''s eyes showed a glimpse of light. She understood the situation, and she replied, "You’re right,


    brother. The way the Schulz family did stuff was way too merciless...." 2


    Suddenly, something crossed Emi''s mind, and she hurriedly added, "Brother, I heard that there''s


    another family who is second only to the Schulz family. This family seems to want to get involved in


    the shipping industry. They''re the Schulz family''s fierce rival, and the family''s condition is simr to


    ours and the Takahashi family. We can form a partnership with the Wade family should all the


    requirements be fulfilled." 3


    Yahiko shook his head and said, "Forget about it. The


    Schulz family and the Wade family are both verypelling. With Oskia''s economic development


    advancing by leaps and bounds, the might of these two families is far beyond that of other families


    across Asia. Irrespective of the Schulz or Wade family, we are no match for them at all. If we were


    to form a partnership with the Schulz family, it is likened to a doomed petition, while to work hand-in-


    hand with the Wade family would be to offend the Schulz family. In my opinion, we should not ce


    ourselves in such a dangerous position!" 5


    Having said this, Yahiko pondered for a moment. In a serious tone, he said, "From now on, the Ito


    family will terminate partnerships with families from overseas, neither will we ept any offers of


    cooperation from foreigners. In the meantime, we will work hard by exploring the domestic market,


    embarking on new challenges, preparing ourselves for unprecedented events, and umting


    strength! By the time our strength is as strong as the Wade family and Schulz family, only then will


    we reconsider forming partnerships with them.
