The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 6045

The room was about 20 square meters. There was an open space of about 7 square meters outside the room without any furniture or objects. There was only a toilet and a faucet with a small stream of water running inside.

A man with a full beard and disheveled hair covering half his face was sitting crookedly on the toilet. A solid metal collar was placed around his neck. Behind the collar was an iron chain as thick as a thumb. The length of the iron chain was short enough that he could not reach the open space no matter what. He could only be confined to the corner of the room.

The floor was damp and cold. There was no place to sit or lie down. There was not even a straw mat, let alone a mattress. The harsh environment had caused the man to curl up on the toilet to sleep with great difficulty.

At this moment, the man heard the commotion and raised his head weakly. As he and Charlie exchanged glances, his eyes widened in utter shock as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole body shook uncontrollably.

Looking at his distorted face and figure, Charlie recognized him as Raymond, the manager of Vintage Deluxe.

Upon the sight, Charlie was filled with mixed emotions.

He rushed forward, clasped Raymond's hands, and exclaimed in a low voice, "Mr. Cole! No, Biden. Are you okay? I'll get you out of here!"

Raymond instantly burst into tears. He looked at Charlie and choked up. "Y-You know?"

"Yes." Charlie nodded. "I saw the photo of you and my father, so I came to the States to find you. I’ve finally found you."

Raymond hurriedly interjected, "This is entirely my fault! I deserve every bit of it, and I can't leave now. If I leave, they will go after my family. I can't drag them into this..."

Bewildered, Charlie asked, "How did you come into conflict with them, anyway? I heard that you stole something from them. Is it true?"

Donning a bitter smile, Raymond answered, "Yes, I stole something from them, but technically speaking, they stole those things from someone else..."

Then, he looked at Charlie and affirmed in a serious tone, "You must have a lot of questions that have bothered you for a long time and have never been answered. Since you’re here, I'll answer them one by one. After that, I have one more thing to ask you."
