But if he didn’tply, charlie Wade wouldn’t help him recover. And if they parted on bad terms, wouldn’t he lose the greatest pleasure of his life forever?


    For a moment, everyone exchanged uneasy nces, unsure of what to do.


    Just then, Steve sneered and said, “You idiots never think ahead. If you agree to Mr. Wade’s terms, even if you can’t engage in your perverted activities anymore, at least you’ll retain your manhood and still have some basic pleasures. But if you refuse, even those will be gone. Do you really want to be homosexuals?”<fndf95> Readplete version only at find{n}ovel</fndf95>


    Steve’s words snapped me out of my daze.


    Between retaining basic functions and losing them entirely, the former was clearly the more appealing choice.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Even then, choosing the former came with an additional price—a billion dors.


    They had already amassed enough wealth to livefortably for a lifetime. But if they lost that ability, what was the point of having money?


    After exchanging nces, Hank finally spoke up. “Mr. Wade… We… We agree!”


    charlie Wade looked at him and asked, “Are you sure? Don’t force yourself.”


    Hank gritted his teeth. “I’m sure. I’m not reluctant at all!”


    charlie Wade sighed. “Ah, you’ve really turned over a new leaf. If you pool together more than ten billion dors and use it to fight against perverts worldwide, your reputation will skyrocket. The world will see you as the leading figure in the fight against depravity. Quite the honor, isn’t it?”


    Hank, terrified, quickly pleaded, “Mr. Wade, we have no problem paying the money, but you must not reveal our identities. We still want to stay alive…”


    His voice trembled as he continued, “You don’t understand—on those private inds in the Caribbean and in the United States, there are people far wealthier and more perverse than us. If they find out we funded a bounty on them, they’ll have us killed first…”


    charlie Wade turned to Steve and asked, “Is that true?”


    Steve coughed twice before answering, “The man who has topped the world’s richest list for years was also a regr on those inds. It’s an open secret, though the hard evidence hasn’t surfaced yet. There are even rumors involving many Oscar-winning superstars.”


    charlie Wade sighed. “You Americans really know how to indulge. Here, if a celebrity is caught having an affair, they get banned.”


    Then, with a casual wave of his hand, he said cheerfully, “Since you’re willing to spend so much money for justice, you can keep a low profile. But you’ll have topile and expose everyone you know who has taken part in this. Once the fund is set up, we’ll ce bounties worth hundreds of millions on the undergroundwork. The richer the pervert, the more they’ll have to pay just to stay hidden.”


    A hundred million or even a billion US dors is no issue. I want those wealthy perverts to spend their fortunes hiring an army of bodyguards just to protect themselves—forcing them to live in constant fear every single day!”
