Chapter 11

Author: Lord Leaf
After the three bows, tears were swirling in Harold’s eyes but he didn’t dare to do anything rash now.

He knew that his grandma was very disappointed and agitated at him now, so no matter what, he shouldn’t enrage her any further.

Lady Wilson heaved a sigh of relief after seeing Harold bowing and admitting defeat.

She didn’t wish for his precious grandson to bow his head at Charlie the loser, but they had made a bet that involved her.

She was a very devoted Buddhist. If Harold didn’t keep his promise, she would certainly be so afraid of the retribution and karma to come at her that she would have trouble eating and sleeping.

Thus, she looked at Harold and said flatly, “Harold, treat these three bows as a lesson for you. Next time, don’t bet on something that you have no absolute certainty of. Even if you wish to make a bet, keep your family out of it!”

With a pouty face, Harold grumbled, “Okay, Grandma, I know better now. I’ll never do it again…”

As he spoke, his eyes glared towards Charlie viciously, thinking, ‘You b*stard! How dare you force me to kneel and bow before you. You made me lose face today, I swear I’ll get right back at you sooner or later!’

Then, Lady Wilson stated, “It is a joyful day today, now that Claire has won the contract. Come on everyone, we must hurry and make our preparations now. We must take this opportunity to build a good partnership with Emgrand Group!”

Charlie reminded, “Grandma, since Claire has succeeded in striking the deal, don’t you think you should announce the appointment of Claire as the director of the company as you’ve promised?”

Lady Wilson arched her eyebrows, thoughts were running in her mind.

She did say that whoever won the contract would be appointed as the company’s director.

However, Claire was not her favorite all this while. Her loser husband had always irritated her too and some ideas were slowly brewing in her mind again.

What if Claire got out of her control after she was appointed such a high position in the company? What would she do then?

In that instant, she wanted to withdraw her promise. After all, she didn’t swear on an oath when she made such a promise, so she wouldn’t feel bad at all if she took it back.

However, saying such a statement right after Claire struck the deal would be unwise, so she said, “Let’s do this instead. Tomorrow night, I’ll hold a banquet, inviting all the prominent and influential people in Aurous Hill to the party. At the banquet, I’ll officially announce our collaboration with Emgrand Group and the appointment of the new director.”

Charlie was relieved with satisfaction after Lady Wilson’s statement.

Claire also smiled, reassured. Finally, the position of the director was hers. She didn’t have to be elbowed and isolated anymore, and her parents could finally stand upright and be proud!

Lady Wilson turned to look at Claire and said, “Claire, I need you to do something for me.”

“Yes, Grandma, what is it?”

“I want you to contact the chairman of Emgrand Group and invite him to attend tomorrow’s banquet.”

After a pause, she continued with anticipation, “If he is able to attend our banquet, it will be an extravagant boost to our family! It will also push our name out to the public, making us more famous!”

Claire pondered for a while and said hesitantly, “But… I only met Doris Young, the vice-chairman, I didn’t see the chairman himself…By the way, don’t you think it’s a little too deliberate to organize the banquet when we’ve just gotten the contract…”

“So what? I want to tell the whole Aurous Hill that we’re now bound to Emgrand Group. We’re going to be very successful and rich!”

Lady Wilson continued, “Even if their chairman doesn’t want to come, you can invite Doris Young, it’s the same. She is the second person in charge of Emgrand Group, she would also be an honorable guest to have at our banquet.”

She was already grinning in excitement when she thought of it. She felt her body pumping with hot blood when she imagined how those big cooperates and families who had discriminated against the Wilson family would have to humble themselves and serve under the Wilson family.

The Wilson family would become more brilliant and lavish in her hands!

Claire pondered for a moment before answering gingerly, “Okay, I understand, I’ll try…”

“Don’t try it! You must!”

Claire nodded reluctantly, then turned to Charlie and whispered, “What should I do? What if the chairman doesn’t attend? What if Doris Young doesn’t want to come too?”

Charlie chuckled and said, “Just try and see. You have Doris Young’s number, don’t you? Maybe she’ll agree as soon as you call her, who knows?”

The purpose of the banquet was not only to demonstrate the strength of the Wilson family but also to announce Claire’s promotion to the director.

As her husband, it would be a joyful event to support his wife and to celebrate her promotion.

At this time, Claire didn’t know that her husband was the chairman of Emgrand Group. She fidgetted her fingers anxiously and sighed before saying, “He is the chairman of Emgrand, I heard that he is some young master from an extremely wealthy family in Eastcliff. This kind of person must be very busy with his daily business, how would he be able to spare the time to attend some whatnot banquet…”

Charlie laughed and said, “I don’t think so. Perhaps he’s someone who spends his time with his wife at home every day, cooking and doing the laundry all day long. Who knows?”

Claire rolled her eyes at him and teased, “Do you think everyone is like you?”

Charlie nodded. “Yes, maybe the boss of Emgrand Group is just like me…”

Claire pursed her lips and snorted, “Cut it out! That’s impossible!”

    "Oshino Hakkai?!" Yoshitaka bellowed. "I said Tokyo Dome, and you're supposed to protect me! Who even mentioned Oshino Hakkai?!"The Mitsui residence was southwest of Tokyo, while Tokyo Dome was downtown. On the other hand, Oshino Hakkai was where Yoshitaka's father had retired, and it was near Mount Fuji and at least eighty kilometers southwest of the Mitsui residence! In short, Shinichi was going in the opposite direction!"But, Sir, Yoshiyasu called me," Shinichi explained. "He said your father's estate might be threatened and that I should head over right away…"Coming to his senses, he quickly barked coldly, "Fools! Turn around and come to Tokyo Dome right this instant! We're being attacked!"His face darkened as he hung up, his hand still shaking as he squeezed his phone in rage. "No… This can't be…The same brother who has always served me so well is trying to kill me?!""There are really a lot of things that don't cross your mind, huh?" Charlie chuckled, shaking his hea

    Turning to Hanzo, Charlie said, 'Have your men guard both ends of this hallway—no one in or out. If it's a fan, chase them off. If they clearly mean business, take them down!""Yes, Sir!" Hanzo nodded and swiftly turned to his ninjas, "Watch this hallway and do not let anyone in! Prepare your shurikens and other projectile weapons in case they bring guns. They poke their head in here, they die!"Having received their orders, the ninjas quickly left to form their perimeter while Charlie approached the samurai he had blinded, lifting him with one hand as he growled coldly, "Who sent you? Be honest, and I'll let you live. Otherwise, you die."Though terrified, the samurai retorted defiantly, "No chance! I still have a wife and kids. If I talk, they die! But if I keep my mouth shut, they will be compensated!"Then, turning to the other samurai, he hollered, "Brothers! Never forget that we are one! If anyone talks, our families will all be wiped out!"Charlie frowned but soon scoffed.

    Everyone was shocked to see Hanzo kneeling before Charlie so respectfully.Naturally, neither Yoshitaka nor Kokomi knew who Hanzo was, as while the Iga ninjas and Hanzo were famous, no one actually knew what they looked like.After all, ninjas were specialized martial artists, but ambush tactics were their forte. The most important skill they trained was to do their best to stay unseen, concealing tools in normal clothing to either hurt or hide. Never exposing their true identity was their way to protect themselves.Yoshitaka certainly didn't expect the Iga ninjas, the top ninja clan in Japan, to show up in Tokyo Dome and salute Charlie, who was an Oskian on top of that.Still, he was relieved as he could see that with the ninjas' numbers and Charlie's near-divine abilities, he had a good chance of surviving the night.Charlie asked Hanzo just then, "How did things look outside when you came in?""There were over a dozen bodies before we got in here," Hanzo replied respectfully.

    Yoshitaka was worried his daughter would think even less of him, not to mention that he still wasn't sure who Charlie was and what he really did.Heaven knows if the man would destroy him in an instant if pushed too far.Knowing that he had no choice, he nodded at Charlie, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade! I will make sure to wire the money once this is over!""Uh-huh," Charlie grunted non-committedly and turned to Tanya. "Well, that's twice I've saved you now. Since I got ten concerts the first time, shouldn't we make that twenty now?"Tanya nodded without hesitation. "Yes, Mr. Wade. If you say twenty, twenty it is. I would have no problems if you demand more, too."Charlie gave her a huge thumbs-up. "You're quick and determined. I appreciate that, though I can't say the same for everyone."Yoshitaka flushed in embarrassment as he could tell that Charlie was mocking him again in passing while praising Tanya.That was when a group of black-clad ninja arrived on both ends of the hallway, a

    As a global investor, the Mitsui Group wasn't just capable of forking 5 billion easily—they could say with no uncertainty that they could profit steadily with it.If Yoshitaka did as Charlie asked, that meant he was giving up on 780 million US dollars and basically giving him the money for free… and that was only if he did everything demanded flawlessly, or it would be 5.78 billion dollars in total loss.Yoshitaka would bawl if he could—as a businessman, profit was the only thing he cared about, and it was always an instinct for him to get the most out of any deal. Even if there was something to be lost, he would make sure to minimize said loss.Hence, he told Charlie, "Mr. Wade, the Mitsui Group is as influential as we are reputable. You really have nothing to worry about. I'll carry out your instructions to the letter…"Charlie nodded and shrugged. "Sure, I trust you. Like I said, you will have your money back if no issue surfaces in three years…"Pausing, he then asked, "Perhaps you

    Even as Tanya was fangirling over Charlie, Yoshitaka was feeling both shocked and lucky as he saw that Charlie had everything under control.He breathed a sigh of relief and held a thumbs-up at him, exclaiming, "That was amazing, Mr. Wade! Those trained samurai didn't even stand a chance!"Charlie eyed him and said coolly, "You're dealing with the bodies. And remember, keep things clean and leave no traces behind… Or if you do, make sure it can't be traced back to me and cause me any unnecessary trouble. Understand?"Yoshitaka glanced at the dozenish corpses lying around and felt a migraine coming up.It's not like his company hadn't dealt with corpses—they just had never had to deal with so many and at the same time.It was especially a problem as they were in the middle of a busy city like Tokyo.Even so, his daughter had promised Charlie that she would disown him if he screwed up. Despite Kokomi's delicate appearance, no one could change her mind once she had decided on anything, a
