Bing a master turtle doesn’t mean that your chance for freedom ispletely lost. If things don’t turn around, you could find yourself working in KTV for the rest of your life. Just imagine being in your 60s or 70s, gray hair and all, still handing out toilet paper to male customers at the restroom entrance. That would be a tough situation to be in. At that moment, Caesar noticed the sorrowful expression on Lloyd’s face, which reminded him of someone mourning a lost father, and he felt a pang of sympathy.


    Caesar thought to himself, “Even though Lloyd almost caused me a major disaster today, he’s still my friend. He’s always treated me with respect and even arranged for my favorite girl to be here, so I owe him a favor…”


    “Earlier, I acted out of self-preservation when I struck him and threatened to ruin him. Now that I reflect on it, I realize I need to make amends. It’s a bit disheartening. If this word gets out, people will say that Caesar is heartless, betraying his friends when trouble arises…”


    “Moreover, Master Wade is truly exceptional. Forcing Lloyd to work in KTV is like making apany executive with a million-dor sry clean toilets. It’s a bit much, don’t you think?”


    With this thought in mind, Caesar seized the moment while Charlie was engaged in conversation with Wendy. He leaned closer to Lloyd and spoke softly, “Hey, Lloyd, don’t let your heart weigh you down. The oue you’re facing today isn’t as bad as it seems…”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Lloyd, overwhelmed with emotion, felt tears streaming down his face. He stood up, struggling to hold back his sobs, and asked, “Brother Caesar… Is it really that bad, or is there some hope?”


    Caesar nodded sincerely, “Look, even though you’ve been a small-time boss dabbling in questionable activities, there are others in far worse situations. I know a boss whosepany was valued over a billion and was about to go public. He ended up doing your job because he was blinded by greed and pretended to be strong under Master Wade’s influence. Now he’s hauling cement on a construction site! Master Wade has said he’ll be there for 20 years, and it’s still ongoing! So tell me, who has it worse than him?”


    Lloyd was taken aback.


    Caesar continued, “So, think about it: would you prefer to spend ten years as a turtle in KTV or go to a construction site to carry cement for twenty?”<fn67a7> Fresh chapters posted on Find~Novel</fn67a7>


    Hearing this, Lloyd quickly wiped his tears and managed to choke out, “If you put it that way, being a turtle doesn’t sound so bad…”


    “Exactly!” Caesar sighed. “Life goes on, and it’s okay if you lose some money; you’re still alive and well. Many people have crossed Master Wade and faced dire consequences, but not everyone ends up like you. Shouldn’t you be grateful? What more could you possibly want?”


    Lloyd nodded in agreement, “Brother Caesar, you’re right… I… I… I admit it…”


    Caesar nodded slightly and added, “This situation? You can me your concubine. It’s really her fault for crossing Master Wade. She’s the one who caused this mess.”


    Lloyd clenched his teeth and nodded. When he thought of Teresa Fay, his hatred was palpable!


    He inwardly cursed, “Teresa Fay, you’ve ruined everything! If I had known you would cause such chaos, I would have rather not been with you at all and sent you to KTV myself! Then I wouldn’t be suffering like this today…”


    “It’s a shame I didn’t foresee this. Life doesn’t offer do-overs. No matter how angry I am, I still have to face going to work in KTV tonight.”


    With that thought, he turned to Caesar, tears in his eyes, and pleaded, “Brother Caesar, in the future, I’ll take on the role of turtle for you; you’ve got to look out for me a little…”


    Caesar turned his attention back to Charlie and quietly patted his chest, assuringly saying, “Lloyd, don’t worry, your brother will take care of you discreetly!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
