Charlie’s face was as icy as a winter morning!


    He never expected that Mr. Lloyd and Marcus would have the audacity to bring someone to eliminate Don Albert and Jacob!


    His fury was boiling over, and he felt ready to unleash his wrath!


    Conversely, Mr. Lloyd and Marcus were ted at the sight of him!


    All this time, Marcus had been enduring a hellish existence, facing countless insults and humiliation!<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    It was all thanks to Charlie!


    Finally, tonight was his chance for revenge!


    Mr. Lloyd harbored equal resentment towards Charlie following today’s confrontation. Initially, he had regretted missing the opportunity to take Charlie out, but now, here he was, right in front of them! What a twist of fate!


    Mr. Lloyd quickly turned to Jones and shouted, “Mr. Jones! This piece of trash is Charlie Wade! Eliminate him immediately!”


    Marcus chimed in enthusiastically, “Yes, Mr. Jones, take him out now!”


    Charlie frowned and, in a calm yet tense manner, replied, “Release Don Albert and my father-inw now, and I might consider sparing your life.”


    Mr. Lloyd was furious. “What the hell are you talking about, you pathetic loser? How can you be so arrogant right before your demise? Do you really think you stand a chance? Don’t you realize that Mr. Jones here could end you in a heartbeat?”


    With a chilling tone, he continued, “Since you have the guts to show up here today, don’t even think about walking out alive!”


    Charlie scanned the room with disdain, “Do you truly believe you can take me down with these pathetic thugs?”


    Mr. Lloyd red at Charlie like a vengeful viin. “Charlie, I know you have skills, but these men behind me are professional killers from the Webb family. They are all exceptionally strong and resilient. No matter how good you think you are, you can’t match them! Just wait, Mr. Jones could take you down with a single punch!”


    Marcus quickly interjected, “Dad, there’s no point in talking to that jerk! We should disable him first! I want him to kneel before me and apologize! Before he dies, I want to carve ‘loser’ into his forehead, film it, and post it online for everyone in Aurous Hill to see that Charlie is a pathetic loser!”


    Mr. Lloydughed triumphantly, “Excellent idea! Let’s make it happen!”


    Noticing Don Albert was on the brink of death, Charlie growled coldly at Jones, “Let him go, ande at me!”


    Jones smirked disdainfully. “Let go of him? Buddy, I can take you down with one hand! I’ll send you and Don Albert to meet Hades!”


    Charlie returned his wicked grin and replied, “That hand won’t be yours for long!”


    In an instant, Charlie charged forward!


    Jones didn’t anticipate Charlie’s rush. Since his right hand was still gripping Don Albert, he swung his left hand at Charlie!


    Jones was brimming with confidence, convinced that an ordinary person couldn’t possibly withstand his immense power!


    Just look at Don Albert—even a hardened fighter couldn’t withstand his grip!


    However, the situation took a surprising turn. Charlie deftly dodged the attack and, in a swift motion, seized Jones’s arm and delivered a powerful punch to his shoulder!


    The force of the punch was staggering!


    Crack!


    The deafening sound echoed as Jones’s left shoulder bone shattered into fragments!


    The overwhelming pain was excruciating, as if thousands of bone spurs were relentlessly stabbing at his nerves and flesh! Jones howled in agony, feeling as though all his strength had been drained from him in an instant!


    Gasping in despair, he released his grip, causing Don Albert to copse to the ground, unconscious.<fn0cbe> Original content can be found at find{n}ovel</fn0cbe>


    Charlie quickly assessed Don Albert and felt relieved to see he was still alive, albeit weakened.


    Confident that Don Albert could manage for a while, Charlie shifted his focus back to the group of thugs and dered, “None of you are leaving this ce tonight!”
