"What did he say?" Janus echoed Quinn, sighed, and then said helplessly, "Of course he did not believe me and said that I must have cuckolded him behind his back. He said that he would not believe me no matter how I tried to explain myself ."
"However, he then said that he would forgive me this time for the sake of money. He would let me go back and recuperate while also giving me time to think things through clearly at the same time."
"If I got well and continued to help him make money, he would pretend that nothing had happened. Otherwise, it would cost me my life."
As Janus spoke of this, he smiled and added, "However, he would never have dreamt that I already had a backup plan in advance. When I decided to tell him all this, I had already asked my first girlfriend to come out of the villa in advance with her passport. I asked her to wait for me at the hospital near Mr. Long's company."
Charlie was surprised and asked, "You already guessed that he would beat you up until you would be forced to go to the hospital?"
"Not really." Janus laughed and said, "If I had known that he would have really done that, I would have just taken my first girlfriend with me and eloped. I would have received fewer beatings, then."
Janus then continued, "In fact, I was thinking that there could only be three outcomes." "The first one was that Mr. Long would see that I had helped him to earn so much money and would be of value to him in the future. Furthermore, he has so many
women by his side, and I thought that he would not care about just one of his women and so, he would give us his blessing."
When ordinary people did things, they would take things one step at a time. When smart people did things, however, they would take one step to determine three steps in advance, and the most intelligent people would take one step to determine ten steps.
Janus had not known what the outcome of the matter would be in advance, but he had already made the most meticulous arrangements for this situation.
Based on this, his love for his girlfriend could also be clearly seen. Out of the three possibilities, he would face possible death o r injury, but he had left his first girlfriend with three possibilities, all of which would basically leave her with no risk of any injuries.
This showed that this man's way of thinking about things was really much better compared to an average person, and i t was also a lot better compared to Charlie himself.
