"C-Curtis?" Julien exclaimed. "Do you mean the Curtis Wade who turned my family upside down 20 years ago?! So... You're Ashley's son?!"
"Yes." Charlie nodded. "That's right."
Julien took a deep breath to compose himself and sighed. "No wonder! No wonder the short video platform that your family owned refused to remove and ban the freaking videos. So, you’re Curtis's son..."
After that, he muttered, "You are Curtis's son, and you're here for the Four-Sided Treasure Tower, so... Bruce's exposure of Brooklyn Prison and Biden as well as the video of Malcolm's affair with Bruce's wife... Those were all your doings?"
"Yes." Charlie admitted frankly, "They were all my ideas."
"Tsk..." Julien inhaled fearfully. "You're incredible. Just a few smart moves have left us in disarray. You truly carry the same demeanor as your father back in the day."
Charlie responded in a monotonous tone, "You can stop your flattery now."
As he said this, he took out his phone from his pocket, casually tapped the screen a few times, and calmly said, "By the way, just so you know, I've been recording from the moment I came in until now. Our whole conversation has been captured."
"What?" Julien instantly gasped in shock and fear. "Why are you doing this? Don't you trust me?"
With an ambiguous smile, Charlie explained, "I knew there were core members of the Rothschild family here, so I thought I'd record a video to document it."
"Although your family has had some conflicts with you in the past, with our collaboration this time, we both have a chance to break the ice. In the future, when your old man dies and you successfully become the patriarch of the family, we may have many opportunities for more collaboration. We can always be friends. Although you are a bit older, you can live for another thirty years. If we get along well, we could be friends for several decades, right?"
Julien didn't know that Charlie was just beginning to record a video. Charlie's remarks made him feel a little better. Since Charlie had leverage over him, he knew very well that he had to obey Charlie so that Charlie would not expose the video.
His life was in Charlie's hands now.
Charlie even had something on him that could threaten his future.
