It was fortunate that Luke Jenkins was very good at being sensible.
He said without the slightest hesitation, "Alright, I promise."
Luke's easy-going nature made a satisfied expression appear on Joseph Shaw's face.
He knocked on Luke's head with the gun gently and said calmly, "You have one day. I'm leaving Canada tomorrow night at the latest. By then, I want to see your money."
He speculated that people from Canada would immediately come searching for him. However, he had a relationship with the higher-ups, so he believed that he should be able to hold off until tomorrow night. Unfortunately, tomorrow night was as far as he could go.
"Alright." Luke clenched his teeth. "I promised you, so can you untie me and Charlotte now?"
"Yes, of course." Joseph smiled and shot a look at the burly men.
The burly men stepped forward and loosened the ropes on those two.
A wisp of fear flashed past Charlotte Jenkins’ eyes for a moment as she looked at the pitch-black gun nozzles aiming at her from all directions. She bit her lower lip but could not muster the courage to speak anymore.
"Follow my brother-in-law around the clock and ensure his safety, alright?" Joseph ordered his men coldly.
"Yes, sir." A few men in black would follow Luke closely day and night.
All Luke could do was pick up his phone now that the backdoor had been erased and contact the person in charge of corporation acquisition.
"As for you, my sweet wife, come here." Joseph waved his hand at Charlotte as if he was summoning a puppy.
Charlotte cowered and took a step back subconsciously.
"Go." The burly men in black shoved her back with their guns.
Charlotte could only brace herself and walk over.
Joseph burst out laughing and pulled her into his arms. Then, he kissed and bit at her lips recklessly. 1
He had been treating Charlotte with the utmost courtesy in order to gain the Jenkins' support.
However, this woman had been arrogant around him right from the start. She would smile at him when she was in a good mood and pull a long face when she was in a bad mood.
Heh heh... Who did she think she was?
It was great that the Jenkins were of no use to him anymore and he did not need to restrain himself now.
Joseph let out a savage laugh, lifted Charlotte, and went upstairs.
Soon, he vented all his pent-up anger on Charlotte's body.
Charlotte had never seen Joseph being so terrifying before. She could not help struggling and crying out loud with all her might. However, her effort was futile.
Joseph, who had already revealed his hostility, would not show any pity or sympathy to her just because she was in agony.
After this one-sided harassment ended, Joseph looked at Charlotte coldly. "You are still my woman at the very least. I won't do anything bad to you and your brother if both of you are obedient."
"Yes, sir," answered Charlotte in fear.
Joseph laughed in a taunting manner and went to stand by the window, staring into the vast night coldly.
This situation kept brewing at night, and a storm would certainly come sweeping over by the next day.
Julian Shaw was already in an undefeatable position this time. The only way out for Joseph now was to leave Canada and return to America.
It was the second time this happened!
He was driven out of Ningcheng City for the second time.
Joseph could not help clenching his fists tightly in rage. He felt really recalcitrant.
'Julian, I've lost to you this time. However, this is not over yet, so you should not be too proud too early.'
In the vast night, the public's rage brewed. By the next day, this rage erupted like a mass.
The first one to come under fire was Jenkins Corporation.
