Homer saw the undisguised killing intent i n Charlie's eyes and he was suddenly terrified to the extreme!
He threw himself on his knees and groveled as he cried and begged, "Mr. Wade, I I was young and impulsive... Please forgive me this time and let me off o n the account that my family is at least the second largest Oskian family in the United States... My father will satisfy you no matter how much money you ask for...
Please..."
Charlie did not want to see him acting and so he said coldly, "Homer, do you really think that money is everything? Your greatgrandfather was so rich but didn't he fail to hold onto his position as the head of the family too? Let me tell you, I wouldn't agree to it even if you were to trade the entire Fox family's assets for your life! Adults must pay the price for their actions! It's not only you, but even your father and grandfather will have to pay the corresponding price for your actions! Because as the saying goes, the father is at fault for not teaching his son well!"
Homer then subconsciously questioned," Aren’t you afraid that the Fox family will retaliate against you? If my father and grandfather knew that you killed me, they would definitely devote the entire Fox family to avenge me!"
"Your father and grandfather?" When Charlie heard this, he sneered and said, "To tell you the truth, your great-grandfather, Jordan Fox, and your cousin, Kathleen Fox, are now being protected by my subordinates. I won't only deal with you but I'll also be dealing with your father and your grandfather. If your great-grandfather has the chance to return to the United States, do you think that he'd let your father and grandfather go? I won't let him off if he dares to let them both go!"
When Homer heard this, he was terrified to the core!
He never would have dreamt that his greatgrandfather and his cousin, whom his grandfather had been trying to find, were i n Charlie’s hands!
At this moment, he finally realized what kind of existence Charlie was.
He had originally thought that Charlie was a vicious wolf that was rushing to try and take a bite of the Fox family.
But now, he realized that Charlie was actually the hunter with the gun.
And in Charlie's eyes, the current Fox family was just a dog with the muzzle of a gun pointed at it.
At this instant, he was already scared out o f his mind as he burst into tears and said," Mr. Wade... I beg you to have mercy and to spare me just this once... I will make sure that my father and grandfather agree to all of your requests unconditionally no matter what you ask for... I only beg you to let me off..."
