My slap stunned Carl.
After a few seconds, he widened his eyes and looked at me in disbelief, “Brother-in-law, why did you hit me? My sister is Montana, so if you’re not my brother-in-law, who is?”
“Haha, if I have a brother-in-law like you who’s always making people worry, I am fine not being your brother-in-law,” I replied with a sneer.
When Carl heard this, he was stunned and said with an inconceivable expression, “Brother-in-law, I just slept with a woman who runs a brothel and you’re planning to not want me as your brother-in-law? You’re such a coward.”
“What do you mean by sleeping with a woman who runs a brothel? Do you know whose woman she is? She is the woman of Hector, the triad leader of the Four Seas Triad.”
“The triad leader of the Four Seas Triad?”
Carl had obviously heard of Four Seas Triad.
After learning that the woman he had slept with was the triad leader’s woman, his face turned pale and cold sweat started falling from his forehead.
After I saw that he had realized the seriousness of the matter, I said indifferently, “I’ve said what should be said. The reason I am here this time is not for anything else, I just want to make it clear to you that you should shape up.”
I patted Carl, whose face was ashen, and turned around to leave.
Carl was startled when he saw that I was about to leave. He fell to his knees with a thud and he tightly held my thighs. “Brother-in-law, you can't leave! The people from Four Seas Triad are all ruthless. If you leave, they'll chop me up and feed me to the crocodiles.”
“Get lost!”
I lifted my leg and kicked Carl to the ground. “You know they’re not easy to deal with, huh? Then why did you cause such astronomical trouble for me? Alright, you should solve your problem yourself. I am unable to claim higher class connections with your sister.”
After I said that, I got ready to leave once again.
However, Carl hugged my legs once again like he was bone gangrene. Tears streamed down his face as he said, “Brother-in-law, you can’t just turn your back to me. If you do so, I’ll definitely die. I’m begging you, please help me. Help me, please…
“I don’t want the twenty million betrothal gift. I’ll go back tonight and I’ll beg my sister to marry you. Please help me. You have so much money so you definitely can talk to Hector. I’m begging you, please.”
Carl held my legs tightly and he refused to let me go no matter what.
I figured that I had scared him enough and this lesson was sufficiently profound, so I stared at him blankly and said, “Do you think I am f*cking stupid? That’s Hector from Four Seas Triad. What kind of person is he? Do you think I’ll offend him for your sister? Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. I won’t help you and I don’t want your sister either.”
“Brother-in-law, don't, please don't… My sister is famous for her beauty and her t**s are huge. Plus, she’s also a virgin. How could you give up such a good woman?”
“F*ck off!” I kicked Carl to the ground with one foot. “Beautiful women with huge t**s are everywhere. I have so much money, so why do I have to stick to just one woman?”
After being kicked to the ground, Carl did not get up this time, instead, he knelt on the ground and started to kowtow like he was pounding garlic with his head. “Brother-in-law, please, please!”
He was truly frightened. His head was banging on the ground loudly but he did not feel any pain. After a while, his forehead was covered with blood.
After I saw that the desired effect was achieved, I pretended to be in a dilemma. “Fine, who made me like your sister so much? I will reluctantly help you once, but even if I come forward, I might not get the desired outcome from the negotiation. You need to be mentally prepared.”
“Thank you, Brother-in-law. It will definitely work if it’s you!” Carl's expression changed from worry to joy.
“Alright, you should wait here first. I’ll go talk to Hector.”
After I said this, I followed Lorne and went to a private room in a club.
After I asked for Hector’s number from Lorne, I called him.
“Hello, who’s this?”
A very fierce voice came from the other end of the phone.
Judging from the tone of the voice, I could guess that this person was Hector.
“Let me introduce myself, my name is Freddie and the guy who slept with your woman just now is my brother-in-law.”
“Why? Do you want to get him out of this mess? If that’s the case, I should advise you to stop dreaming. He dares to touch my woman so he must die today,” Hector replied domineeringly.
“Oh? What a coincidence. I do want to get him out of this mess today. Hector, let him go for my sake, what do you think?”
“For your sake? Do you think you’re worthy? Do you believe that I’ll chop you into pieces and feed you to the fish?”
“Chop me? I’m afraid you won’t have the balls to do so,” I said with a grin.
After Hector heard what I said, he was stunned. Then, he said in a deep voice, “Who the f*ck are you, kid?”
“Alright, I won’t beat around the bush with you. I know that you know Vincent Quinn and you call him Uncle Quinn. Meanwhile, he calls me Young Master, so who do you think I am?”
“Vincent calls you Young Master?” Hector was clearly stunned. A few seconds later, he said with a trembling voice, “Are you the heir of Stamen Group?”
“Yes, if you don’t believe me, you can call Vincent to verify it. I’ll wait for your update at White Horse Club.”
After I finished the call with Hector, I sat in the private room and crossed my legs, leisurely waiting for news from Hector.
Meanwhile, Lorne looked a little restrained at one side.
Noticing that he seemed to be absent-minded, I asked, “What’s wrong? Why do you look so absent-minded?”
Lorne seemed to hesitate before stammering, “Freddie, I accidentally heard your conversation on the phone just now. A…Are you really the heir of Stamen Group?”
“Um…”
I paused and then nodded. I said, “That’s right, I’m the heir to Stamen Group.”
“Really?”
Lorne’s expression changed and he looked alarmed. In the next second, he knelt on the ground with a thud and started slapping himself wildly. “Freddie, I offended you back then so please be the bigger person and don’t hate me. I didn’t mean it.”
“Get up now. What are you doing?” I reached out and helped him up. “Even though you don’t know who I am in these few days, you did help me a lot. I didn’t even have time to thank you properly, so why would I hate you? However, I hope you can keep my identity a secret since you know about it.”
“Of course. I won’t tell anyone your identity even if someone kills me. From now on, I will be your errand boy and I will take you as my only guide,” Lorne said excitedly.
Clearly, just from my identity… He will have a meteoric rise in his life after he knew me.
After all, without me, he would just be a thug who only knew how to fight and cause trouble in this lifetime.
Now that he knew me, there would be more possibilities in his life.
So, I did not suspect his heartfeltness at all.
“Alright, it’s good enough now that you said that. Also, you don’t have to be so humble with me next time,” I smiled and said to him.
However, after I finished talking, someone pushed open the door of my private room.
A sweaty and burly chap with a colorful tiger tattoo on his chest appeared in front of me.
“Who are you?” I frowned as I looked at the man.
At this moment, Lorne said to me from one side, “Freddie, he’s Hector from Four Seas Triad.”
“Oh, so you’re Hector. So? Have you considered this matter?” I said to him with a grin.
“Freddie, it’s just a misunderstanding. It’s nothing more than a misunderstanding.”
Hector was sturdy and he had a chubby face. However, when he spoke to me, he was smiling and he looked like he was trying to flatter me. One could only imagine how funny his expression was.
“Since this is a misunderstanding, I can take him away now, right?” I said with a smile.
“You can take him away whenever you want. Also, since we have the honor of having you in White Horse Club, we’re lacking in manners for not welcoming you personally. I have a supreme VIP card right here, I hope you can accept it.”
I reached out my hand and took the card over. After fiddling with it for a few seconds, I said with a chuckle, “I know in my heart who’s wrong and who’s right in the matter today. I will accept this card and I’ll come here often. Plus, I’ll tell Uncle Quinn when I go back. We’ll try our best to give you more benefits whenever we can.”
When Hector heard this, he beamed and he was smiling so wide that his face became wrinkled. “Thank you. Thank you, Freddie. Thank you so much.”
“Alright, that’s all for today. Keep in touch.”
“I’ll send you off.”
…
I went back to the lobby with Lorne.
When Carl saw me, he ran to me nervously. “So, how was it, Brother-in-law? Did Hector agree to let me go?”
