"Me?”
Charlie smiled faintly and said indifferently as he drove, "I already told you that my name is Charlie Wade, I am twenty-eight years old, and I'm from Oskia.'
Marianne continued questioning, “Aren't you an assistant for Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group? Why is the whole of Ten Thousand Armies yours if you are just an assistant of Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group?"
Charlie looked straight ahead, and as he steered the vehicle to the left, he casually said, "I was not the one who created Ten Thousand Armies, nor did I pay for its acquisition. However, I was kind to Porter, who is the lord of Ten Thousand Armies.
So, he voluntarily made Ten Thousand Armies pledge its allegiance to me."
Having said that, Charlie paused and said again, "As for my role as an assistant in Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group, I am just making a friendly appearance here. Your family is also in the ocean shipping business, so you should have heard from your father that Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group has a close collaboration with Ten Thousand Armies in the armed escort business. Therefore, its ocean shipping safety is number one in the world, and I was the one who arranged this."
Marianne was puzzled as she asked," Porter Waldron is the lord of Ten Thousand Armies. Why would he owe you a favor when he has all the people and money that he needs?”
Charlie smiled and said, "It isn't very
convenient for me to elaborate on this matter, but that is indeed the case."
Marianne asked again, "What exactly are you here to do in Hong Kong, then? I don't believe that someone with a powerful background like you would come to Hong Kong in person just to discuss a collaboration with my father."
Charlie smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you that I'm here to administer justice?"
Marianne asked, "What kind of justice is it that requires you to come over and administer it in person?"
Charlie thought about it and said, "The other party was a friend of my father when my father was still alive. He encountered some injustice, so I came to Hong Kong to help him preside over this injustice."
