Charlie did not have the slightest good impression of Shawn from Hong Kong.
It was not because of what he had done to Janus. Charlie was fair and objective, and although Janus was the weaker party in this matter, this matter was indeed Janus’ fault.
It was only human nature for Shawn to want to take revenge against Janus for his dignity and reputation.
However, what made Charlie most dissatisfied was that Shawn was a person who went back on his own word.
According to Janus’ dictation in the roast goose restaurant at that time, Janus had called his father, Curtis, for help as soon as the incident had happened.
Charlie's father had also flown to Hong Kong immediately and reached an agreement with Shawn so that Shawn would let Janus off on his account.
However, not long after that, Charlie's father had had a conflict with his grandfather, and he had brought his wife and Charlie to settle down in Aurous Hill. After that, his parents were then murdered.
The first thing Shawn had done upon learning of his father's death was to go back on his word. He had disregarded the previous agreement with Charlie's father completely and sent a large number of people around the world to hunt Janus down almost immediately.
The reason why he had given up temporarily was because Yule had taken over from his father.
Fortunately, Quinn had found Charlie when Yule had fallen seriously ill back then.
