"Dad, why are you calling me? It's fine, only three people died. I can solve it!" Hargus answered the call and said.
"Hargus, what the hell did you do?" The voice over the call was filled with anger!
"Dad? Why are you scolding me?" Hargus was speechless.
"I want to kill you! Why the f*ck do I have such a useless son? Sh*t, they even came looking for me to acquire my company!"
"Dad, are you kidding me?" Hargus was shocked. His eyes were wide open. He moved his eyes and stared at Chuck.
"Hubby, what did Dad say?" When Florence saw the shock on her husband's face, she wondered if something bad had happened.
"Brat, do you think I'm kidding?"
"Dad, even if someone wants to buy our company, you don't have to sell it," Hargus muttered.
"Don't sell it? The people who came looking for me know everything about us. Any information can destroy us both. Dare I to refuse them?"
"What? Dad, is this true?" Hargus was petrified.
"I don't have time to joke with you. Compensate the workers immediately!"
Hargus was so shocked that his jaw dropped. "Dad, is the person who wants to buy our company named Chuck Cannon?"
"If you know him, apologize to him at once! You've really put us in trouble! When you’re back, I’ll beat you to death!"
Hargus' face was full of shock!
"Hubby, what's the matter?" Florence felt uneasy.
"He... he really is the boss here. He... he has asked someone to acquire our company." At that moment, Hargus’ feelings were complicated!
Chuck had something in his hands to blackmail them!
"What? He is really rich?" In an instant, Florence was horrified.
How could that be?
When Chuck was a student, he was so poor. How could he have so much money now?
Or was Chuck actually rich but pretended to be poor when he was schooling?
Florence felt uncomfortable.
"He really bought Hargus Stark' father's company. This is really awesome!"
"I'll follow a boss like him from now on!"
The workers were so excited!
What was there to worry about when the new boss compensated so much money to the deceased workers?
"Chuck, please let my family go. I'm sorry. I..." Hargus felt as if there was a stone in his throat, which was hard for him to swallow.
"I have been very kind to you. I've merely purchased the company. By the way, before I forget, be careful when you're doing business in the future, as I'll have people keep an eye on you," Chuck shrugged and said.
Hargus turned pale as he was
frightened, "Please, don't!"
"Compensate them quickly. Otherwise, if I'm in a bad mood, I am not sure whether something bad will happen to your family."
Hargus was shocked. "Quick, go and bring six million dollars!"
"Hubby!" Florence was at a loss.
Bang!
Hargus slapped her.
Florence's beautiful face was red and swollen. She covered her cheeks and said,
"Hubby, why did you just slap me?"
"Why are you still standing here? If you waste any more time, just try my kick!" Hargus was about to raise his hand again.
Florence was so frightened that she ran to the car and drove off to withdraw the money.
"Mr. Cannon, please wait for a moment. The money will arrive soon. I hope you will let my family go. Please!" What else could Hargus say?
He could only beg Chuck piteously!
