Chapter 4600

Author: Lord Leaf
Meanwhile, in Campbell Mansion.

This was an old mansion located in Sham Shui Po in Hong Kong, and the actual usable area for this mansion was only just over thirty square meters.

In Hong Kong, where every inch of land was precious, there were not many people who could own a house that was more than thirty square meters.

Back then, in Kowloon Walled City, countless families with five or even eight family members were all crammed into a small room of less than ten square meters. In comparison, this mansion in Sham Shui Po owned by the Campbell family was already considered to have escaped the title of living in a slum.

Janus had grown up here when he was young. When his father had made a fortune by selling roast goose, his family had then moved to the bustling city center of Hong Kong.

Later, Janus had then become a well-known professional manager in Hong Kong, and he had also earned a good income when he had helped Shawn make a lot of money. The Campbell family’s house in the c

    Daryl hurriedly refused and said, “Janus, this is your own hard-earned money! How could I possibly accept this? Besides that, my income is quite stable now, and I don’t need to pay high medical bills anymore in the future as Mom has already recovered. You can keep this money for yourself!”Janus smiled and said, “You can only buy a car at most with so little money in Hong Kong. I am not capable, and I have limited abilities. You can accept this money from me without any worries. I am all alone, and I don’t need much money, so it’s useless for me to keep this money to myself. If Young Master Wade looks up to me, I will be satisfied if he can manage my food and accommodation for me. If Young Master Wade does not have a use for me, I will simply start up a roast goose restaurant in Sham Shui Po, and I will ask you for some capital when the time comes. You can treat it as if you’re holding onto this money on my behalf first, then.”The old lady also spoke up at this time and said, “Daryl

    Janus was a little puzzled, but he still said very politely, “Mr. Long, there is really no need for you to make amends with me. I have never blamed you from the beginning to the end. I am already very satisfied and content that you have allowed me to come back and reunite with my family!”Shawn turned around and stretched out his hand toward Jenna, who was next to him.Jenna hurriedly took out a document file from her Hermes handbag and handed it over to Shawn. Shawn then took the document file and said to Janus in a flattering manner, “Janus, this is the title deed for Halbert Mansion which is next to my villa. I bought this property in the afternoon, and this property will be yours from now on. This is just a small token from me!”Janus looked at Shawn in astonishment. The first thought that came to his mind was that Shawn had absolutely no reason to do this. First of all, it was very unlikely for Shawn to want to compensate him.Secondly, even if Shawn really wanted to compe

    Shawn had originally thought of offering this villa in exchange for a favor. After all, it was also worth hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, if it were changed into dimes and thrown into the sea, the sea level would also rise a little. Therefore, he should not give this villa to Janus just like that.However, Janus was an intelligent man, and he could see the reason at a glance. Therefore, the nature of this matter instantly changed with just one sentence. If Janus accepted the villa now, it would not be Janus who owed him a favor, but instead, it would be Shawn who owed Janus a favor.The meaning behind Janus’s words was very obvious. Even if he accepted the villa, it would just be because he was doing Shawn a favor.Otherwise, Shawn would be in big trouble if he could not explain things to Charlie. Shawn was also convinced. He knew that he was on the losing end, so he simply decided to accept it.Therefore, he sighed and said to Janus, “Janus, consider this a favo

    Janus’s analogy instantly made his mother understand what was at stake. It also allowed her to be completely relieved about her son’s future safety. She heaved a sigh of relief and said, “I have nothing to worry about if that’s the case, then.”As she said that, she then asked somewhat uncertainly, “Janus, are we really going to move into the villa given by Shawn tomorrow?”Janus nodded and said seriously, “Of course we’re going. This is Young Master Wade’s arrangement, and Shawn is simply acting according to Young Master Wade’s orders. To be precise, the villa that we are going to move into tomorrow is actually a villa given by Young Master Wade.” Having said that, he looked at his mother as well as his younger siblings and said, “Steerlain Island’s villas are all very large. It will certainly be large enough for our whole family to live together. So, everyone should pack up, and we will move there first thing in the morning tomorrow.”Janus’s two younger sisters looked at eac

    When Charlie heard this, he smiled heartily and said, “Uncle Janus, I have some industries on hand, and I can’t manage them on my own. So, I would like you to come over and help me keep an eye on them if you’re willing to do so.”Janus said without hesitation, “Of course I’m willing! Young Master Wade, when would you like me to start work?”Charlie smiled and said, “There’s no hurry. You can accompany your family first during this period of time. I will go back to the United States tomorrow. You can make a trip to Aurous Hill after I have returned, and we can discuss the specific matters face to face.”“Okay!” Janus said immediately, “We will meet up in Aurous Hill, then!”“Okay. See you in Aurous Hill!”Charlie suddenly felt much more relaxed after hanging up the phone.He had been waiting for Janus to say these words. Janus was not only good at seeing the overall picture, but he also had very precise and accurate control of details. This kind of person was not only very stron

    Early the next morning, the media all over Hong Kong received some really shocking news.The news was that Shawn, the top tycoon in Hong Kong, had actually bought Halbert Mansion in Steerlain Island and invited the media reporters to be there to attend the housewarming ceremony!Moreover, what really shocked the media was that Shawn had actually bought this mansion to give to Janus, who was his former love rival and right-hand man!Although Janus did not have much money, he had a surprisingly big reputation in Hong Kong.Hong Kong was a gossip-loving place, and its city of several million people had contributed to more than half the country’s gossip news in both Oskia and Hong Kong during the peak period of the 1990s and the beginning of this century. Therefore, the love triangle between Shawn, Jenna, and Janus was known to almost everyone in Hong Kong.Moreover, everyone in Hong Kong also knew that Shawn wanted to take Janus’s life even in his dreams. Yet now, Shawn had actua

    He looked down and realized that it was Charlie calling. He was startled because of his guilty conscience, so he looked around in the car as he wondered if Charlie had installed a bug in the car.However, he quickly regained his composure, answered the call, and asked respectfully, “Mr. Wade, what are your orders since you’re calling me so early in the morning?”Charlie said, “I just saw the news. It seems that many media reporters have gone to Steerlain Island to do live coverage on the spot. The media reporters mentioned that they did not see your whereabouts, Mr. Long. Aren’t you going to come forward to preside over the housewarming ceremony today?”Shawn hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. I’ve already invited Master Yaleman from Mystery Court to preside over the housewarming ceremony. I will also step forward as the organizer of the housewarming ceremony, but I’m on my way to Sham Shui Po to pick Janus’s family up now, so I might have to wait until I get back to speak to t

    Charlie intended to give Shawn a way out because of Marianne.If Charlie did not give Shawn a way out, Shawn would definitely be the object of ridicule of all the people in Hong Kong in the future.If Charlie gave Shawn a way out, he could help Shawn to mediate a little and leave Shawn with the positive image of a person who could repay all grievances with virtue. Moreover, since Kathleen was already here, it would not be a bad idea for Charlie to do Shawn a favor.Shawn was originally still worried about how he would be ridiculed by all the people in Hong Kong, but he suddenly felt as if he had been hit with a shot of adrenaline when he heard Charlie’s words. He asked excitedly, “Mr. Wade, are you serious?!” Charlie said lightly, “Is there a need for me to call you so early in the morning just to tease you?!”Shawn’s tears of excitement were about to fall, and his voice was even trembling as he said, “Thank you so much, Mr. Wade! You’re truly my savior!”Charlie smiled and sa

    Ares LLP was the biggest law firm in the States, and only the best of the best were recruited as associates.If Jimmy got to pick ten of their partners, he was basically taking a huge chunk out of their human resources.Moreover, the partners' salaries would be very expensive. With Jimmy included, eleven of them meant over a hundred million US dollars at minimum. Ares would definitely be maimed if they had to pay that much money while losing ten of their elites! Naturally, Jimmy didn't feel confident about achieving that, and he asked Charlie, "Mr. Wade… Don't you think it's too much? Would Nate even agree to that?"Charlie shrugged. "Of course he won't agree if you're the one asking, but he would definitely say yes if it were Julien."Julien almost rolled his eyes.The man was truly ruthless, ready to inflict so much damage at the drop of a hat.Worst of all, he was going to play the villain for Charlie.Still, he said confidently, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade! I will pressure him

    However, Jimmy realized something important even as he sighed in relief. "Wait, Mr. Wade… I know I should settle things in the family Stateside, but won't I be arrested upon arrival?""That's Julien's department," Charlie chuckled and turned toward the man. "Tell your butler not to send the evidence to the feds. If it has reached them already, ask to have it back and tell the feds they saw nothing."Julien promptly nodded. "I'll text him right now. You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Wade."Jimmy remained worried. "But sir, I think Nate's not going to let this slide. The man is cunning—he deliberately dug a pit so we'd fall into it, and he gathered all the dirt he could on us to be used as leverage when necessary."Charlie shook his head. "That's no big deal. Julien can make sure that you're fine even if the feds get the evidence."Julien nodded nearby. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. The decision remains in your hands, either way. Just say the word, and it's 25 to life… otherwise, not e

    The fact that Jimmy was a partner in Ares LLP already meant he had skill, while Matilda had herself been retired for years and definitely had lost her touch a little. So, having someone like Jimmy who had stayed on the frontlines all this while would definitely be no issue.And in turn, it was a good thing for Jimmy as it was better than the kennels either way.Charlie then asked Jimmy pointedly, "You say you're interested, but are you sincere about it?"Jimmy nodded without hesitation. "Yes, absolutely!""No regrets? We're talking about ten years here.""None, absolutely none!""Do you know what to say if anyone asks?""Yes, of course! I chose to further my career here in Oskia, and it was absolutely voluntary! That's what I'd say even if my family asked!"Charlie nodded. "Good. Then, you will have two weeks. Go home and set your affairs in order and report in for work afterward.""No problem!" Jimmy nodded repeatedly, actually surprised and grateful that Charlie would let hi

    And yet, Julien was suddenly clapping his hands, and exclaiming excitedly, "Yes, right! We should get his wife and son over too for a happy reunion!"He then paused and quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no! I mean, they should each be caged with one empty cage separating each of their cages. They can see each other and talk, but there will be no touching. How dare he flex on me—I gotta teach him a lesson to remember!"Jimmy dropped limply on his rump, and Matilda beckoned for Paul to help him up while turning toward Julien as she pursed her lips. "Please, Mr. Rothschild… Even if you don't accept his apology, don't bring his family into this. It's against Oskian tradition—you'd insult your family's name!"Julien shrugged, not hesitating to retort, "What do your traditions have to do with me? If I mean to hurt him, forget his family—I'll drag his dogs over too!"Seeing that Julien was so furious, Charlie decided to stop him, or he might actually go through with it."That's enough, J

    Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h

    Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des

    As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside

    Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e

    Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott
