Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 477

He narrowed his eyes as he kept his snake-like gaze that slithered around Mr. Zellner’s neck. With just one squeeze, he could easily kill his prey at any time.

“Are you threatening me?!” Mr. Zellner’s face turned dark with rage.

Charles, on the other hand, did not even flinch. “I’m just telling you the truth.”

Mr. Zellner stood up when he heard this and a menacing look flashed across his eyes. The one thing he could never accept was being threatened by others!

Seeing how aggravated he was, one of his subordinates took out a walkie-talkie and said, “Get ready.”

As soon as he gave the order, a red dot appeared on Charles’ temple and began moving around his temple.

It was as if they were trying to provoke him, as well as to warn him, the red dot hovered over his eyes for a mere second.

-

At the White Family Manor.

Sterling put the call on speaker mode when he answered the phone so everyone around him heard everything loud and clear.

“What?” Sophia stood up and tried to suppress the panic in her chest. “They found the car but Charles wasn’t the one in it? Who was it then? Is it one of Mr. Zellner’s men? Did you ask where is Charles now?”

She stood up and snatched Sterling’s phone away.

Sterling winced when he noticed the wound in her neck that had torn open. How many more wounds did she have all over her body?

“Don’t panic now, one question at a time. How is she supposed to answer all your questions? Have a seat first, look at you, your wounds are opened up again!”

Sterling walked over to Sophia to help her back to her seat, and when she did not budge, he wanted to push her down on the seat but worried that he would hurt her, he decided not to do anything in the end.

The person on the other end of the phone was probably too shocked by her voice, and he went silent for a very long time.

Sophia turned to Sterling with a helpful look in her eyes. “Ster——”

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, a scream came from the other end of the phone. “What the f*ck, y-y-y-your sister——? Isn’t she already dead? Is it a ghost? Ahhhhhh, it’s a f*cking ghost!!!!!”

“Can you shut up!” Why did he have such uncooperative friends? “Who was the one in the car? Did you ask the person where is Charles?”

“... Of course, I did, I’m not stupid.” The person dared not spout any nonsense now, seeing that Sterling was aggravated. “Everyone always talks about how much of a genius Charles is. Genius my *ss, he’s an idiot!”

“He exchanged his limited-edition convertible for someone’s motorcycle just because they were caught in a traffic jam! A limited-edition convertible, for goodness sake! He’s an idiot!”

Sterling could not hold back the annoyance in his chest. “How is this important?”

The key was that the car had been equipped with a tracker so he would at least be able to keep track of Charles’ whereabouts, but he had not expected Charles to switch vehicles with someone else!

Oh, words could not describe how furious he was right now!

The man on the call was stunned. “Was this not the point?”

Sterling could not be bothered to argue with him anymore. “Anyway, I’ll treat you to a meal soon! Remember, don’t tell anyone about this, or we’re not friends anymore!”

With that, he hung up.

He turned around, and when he saw how distraught Sophia looked, he quickly comforted her. “Soph, don’t panic first. Since he was the one who offered to switch cars, he should be alright. Think about it, if he drives such a big car over and Mr. Zellner’s men find out that he has a tracking device on him, he might not be able to talk himself out of it.”

Charles, you stupid fool!

“Ah? What is it?” Sterling was confused.

They had to act quickly if they were to save Charles. Otherwise, what would they do if Mr. Zellner had a trick hidden up his sleeve?

“It’s quite likely that Mr. Zellner’s men are armed, and moreover, they might be even more skilled than yours.” Although Sophia was panicking deep inside, she felt oddly calm at the same time as well. “You might become Mr. Zellner’s new hostage if you rush over like this.”

This was something harsh to imagine, but it was just the truth.

Sterling was stunned for a moment and scratched his head impatiently. “What should I do then? Should I… Should I ask Master Russell for help? I have heard things about how their family had a hand in both legal and illegal affairs.”

“This is a huge matter, it’s unlikely for the Russell family to step out and do something,” Nicole ruthlessly burst his bubble and quickly suggested, “I think you can try reaching out to the Cox family.”

The Cox family had an influential position in the army and they had always liked this grandson (nephew) of theirs.

“She’s right. Ster, give Aunt Harris a call and tell her about the situation. Nicole, listen carefully and do anything you need to,” Sophia said.

Then, before the two could even respond, she hesitated for a second and said, “Never mind, let me do it.”

The sniper had his rifle aimed at Charles’ head, but the look on Charles’ face did not even change as he looked up at Mr. Zellner. “If I die, I’ll make sure to bring you down with me.”

“How are you planning to do that if you don’t have the evidence?” With a ferocious look on his face, Mr. Zellner grabbed the document folder and set it on fire with a lighter without even bothering to check.

The grin on his face widened as the fire burned bright before his eyes. “Tell me now, how can you possibly bring me down?”

He handed the flash drive to his subordinate and said, “Flush it down the toilet.”
