The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 4126

At the very least, Charlie would certainly not have been as meticulous and thorough as Janus had been if he had been placed in the exact same situation.

At this time, Janus had a childlike expression on his face as he smiled and said, "At that time, I was covered with injuries as I was sent to the hospital, but who would have thought that I would secretly run out of the hospital and elope with my first girlfriend just half an hour later?"

As Janus spoke, he added, "I was originally planning to have us take a plane to Southeast Asia and then look for an opportunity to smuggle ourselves from Southeast Asia to the United States.

However, little would I have expected that when Mr. Long returned to the villa, he did not see my first girlfriend there, and he found out that she had taken her passport away with her. So, he issued the pursuit order immediately after that, offering a reward of thirty million Hong Kong dollars for my life..."

"At that time, the both of us had just arrived at the airport, but before we got out of the cab, I saw a lot of thugs looking around outside the airport. I could tell that things were not right, and I could only give up on my original plan."

"I initially planned to look for an opportunity to smuggle ourselves out of Hong Kong, but the reward of thirty million Hong Kong dollars was the biggest catch of the year in Hong Kong. At that time, several major gangs in Hong Kong were fighting, but they temporarily shook hands and made peace in order to earn this money. They sent all of their men out to look for both of us, and some gangs from Macau even came over to try their luck when they heard the news. They were staying by all the gates and piers in Hong Kong, and by that time, I was already desperate and so, I called your father for help..."

"Later, Master Curtis flew over from Eastcliff and met up with Mr. Long. He made a lot of sacrifices and concessions, in exchange for Mr. Long's promise to let us g o. I was very grateful for this and I also promised that I would go over to Eastcliff to look for him after I settle some matters and my family down in Hong Kong..."

Having said this, Janus sighed and said," But I never would have thought that Master Curtis would later die at a young age... After his death, Mr. Long went back on his words immediately. When I went to pay my respects to Master Curtis, Mr. Long offered thirty million Hong Kong dollars for my life. I had no choice but to escape..."

At this time, Charlie could not help but ask, "Uncle Janus, what about your first girlfriend?"

Janus smiled in a self-deprecating manner as he said, "She came to the United States with me. As we had a little cash on hand when we arrived in New York, we opened a small restaurant, and the income that we earned was not bad. However, it was really hard work to wake up early every morning and go back late at night. She could not adapt to it even after a long time. So, one night after I came back from a part-time job, I found out that she had already taken her passport and left without even saying goodbye."
