The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 19

"Who do you think you are, then?" Wendell looked askance at Charlie as he said coldly," You are nothing but a loser, you can't even watch your wife stray around. It’s such a waste for Claire to be with you, why don't you let her go for her to be with m e? I can give her whatever she wants!"

A layer of ice hovered beneath Charlie’s face. He started with a cold and deep voice, "I'll give you two choices. One, apologize to Claire and take back everything you said in front of everyone or two, I'll make your family's company go bankrupt. Decide now.” 4

"Hahaha! Are you kidding me? Who the heck do you think you are to make my family go bankrupt?" 2

Wendell laughed out loud as he shot a contemptuous glare at Charlie. Obviously, he did not take Charlie seriously.

"Are you out of your mind, you crazy piece of sh*t? Are you daydreaming? Do you have any idea what our company's net worth is? What can you do to make us bankrupt? Haha!” 2

Charlie wore an inexpressive expression on his face while looking at Wendell for a while as if he was looking at an idiot. Then, he retrieved his phone and called Stephen. 1

"In three minutes, I want to see the bankruptcy and liquidation of the Jones family's business. Let their debts hit the ceiling!"

Three minutes to make a company with a net worth of billions go bankrupt was utterly impossible!

Wendell glared back at Charlie in great dismay and said, "D*mn, you are so full of lies! Do you really think you are the ultra-rich man on the Internet?" 2

Then, he continued coldly, "Loser, stop pretending, I'll give you two choices too. One, kneel and apologize to me, then divorce Claire immediately. Two, I'll get someone to beat the h*ll out of you and cripple you, and let you see for your pathetic self how lovely and sweet Claire is with me. Decide now! I'll give you a minute to consider your options!" 4

Charlie glanced at his watch and said, “You have one minute left. Are you sure you don't want to save your company even a little?" 2

"F*ck off! You have thirty seconds to decide! If you don't get on your knees right now, I'll make you regret i t forever!" Wendell threatened. 2

"Twenty seconds!"

"Ten seconds!"

"Five seconds!"

"Time's up! Don't blame me for being cold-blooded, you asked for it!" 2

Wendell shook his collar and gestured at the bodyguards around him, he was ready to give the loser a good beating.

Right at this moment, his phone suddenly rang.

Wendell was caught by surprise. He looked at his phone and saw that it was his father, so he quickly answered it.

"Dad, I'm at the hotel now, where are you?"

On the phone, Wendell's father snarled indignantly, ”D* mn it! What the h*ll did you do this time? Who did you offend? Now all shareholders are selling our shares like hotcakes, our share price has fallen by more than 80%!" 7

Then, his growling pursued, "The bank suddenly came to our door to demand debt repayment! All partners have suddenly suspended their projects with us and halted the settlement! Our capital chain is broken!

We’re left with declaring bankruptcy and liquidation!" 2

Blood drained from Wendell’s face as he listened to the loud growl coming from the other end of the line. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead. 2

"We're screwed! Completely screwed!"

Wendell opened his mouth, wanting to ask something when he heard through the phone a sound of a siren followed by the sound of breaking the door, and the police officers asking his father to come to the station for an investigation. 1
