'It's just like how the Laine family was the absolute richest family in Hong Kong back then, but there were still people who dared to kidnap their eldest son even when they were so powerful!’
'It's the same for me!’
'Although I’m almost about to become the richest man in Hong Kong now, I still do not have absolute influence before people like Solomon.'
'If Solomon wants to fight with me, I would still be afraid, and I can only find someone to make peace with him or end up spending money to settle things '
'It's just like how I could only clench my teeth and promise to give Solomon five million US dollars so that I could take my daughter away when I first came here today...' 'But... even though it was obviously his godgrandson who had provoked my daughter first, I ended up having to pay him five million US dollars as compensation instead! This is the biggest drawback of having only money but no authority!’
‘It would be completely different if I could have someone like Charlie to back me up!'
‘What kind of existence is Charlie?! He is the true master of the entire Ten Thousand Armies! If I can build a connection with him, or better yet, make him Marianne's boyfriend, wouldn't I have absolute authority in Hong Kong, then?!'
‘I'm afraid that it will not just be in Hong Kong, but I will also have authority all over the world!'
As Shawn thought of this, he could not help but feel even more excited.
Aside from Marianne's Tesla, there were several Rolls Royces parked outside the entrance of ClubWaves, two of which were Shawn's car and his entourage.
His entourage was still waiting by the side of the car at this time.
When Shawn's entourage saw him coming out, they immediately said respectfully," Master! Miss!"
"B*stards!" Shawn suddenly flipped out and scolded them angrily, "Why didn't you greet Mr. Wade?!”
The people in the entourage were startled, and they quickly said to Charlie respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Wade."
Charlie thought that it was hilarious, but he
Charlie immediately said, "Mr. Long, this is just a trivial matter, so don't make a big deal out of it.”
When Shawn saw that Charlie seemed to be defending Marianne, he was instantly overjoyed, and he smiled as he said happily, "Yes, yes, that’s right! Mr. Wade, you’re right to criticize me. It's my fault.”
Having said that, Shawn hurriedly said to his daughter, "Marianne, I was wrong just now. Don’t hold it against me. You should take a good rest in the passenger seat if you're tired. Mr. Wade will definitely take good care of you.”
Marianne really did not like it when her father was acting like this. So, she walked to the car without looking back, pulled the car door open, and got into the passenger seat.
Charlie looked at Shawn and spoke up as he said, "Mr. Long, we'll leave first."
"Okay, sure!" Shawn smiled and said, "After you, Mr. Wade!"
Charlie then got into the driver's seat in the Tesla. Just as he had started the car, Marianne, who was beside him, looked at him and asked seriously, "Charlie, who exactly are you?"
