NovelUSAChapter 249: When Charles was mentioned, Marissa noticed the Sanchez family's expressions grow cautious. Rachel interrupted Daryl and said to Marissa, "Don't worry about that, Tiffany. Daryl and I will handle these things. Go spend twith Leila." Daryl added, "Listen to Rachel, Tiffany. We'll take care of the situation. You should focus on taking care of Lawrence and Lindsay. They're four now, and we need to find a good kindergarten for them." Marissa understood that they didn't want her involved, fearing she might be in trouble too. She smiled and said, "I'm part of this family. How can I not ask about what's happening at home? If you don't tell me, I'll find out on my own." "Oh, you're so persistent!" Rachel sighed Finally, Daryl decided to inform Marissa about the situation. “Charles is a major bully in Blebert, surrounded by numerous thugs ready to do his bidding. He causes trouble everywhere. They avoid crossing the city's top four influential families. The others have been coerced into paying protection money. If any family refuses to pay annually, they lose the ability to do business peacefully. Charles attempted to extort protection money from our family, but I refused to comply. Since then, he's been creating obstacles for us at every opportunity. The Cliffords allied with him to exclude us from lucrative deals repeatedly. Charles aims to help the Cliffords take over the Moonbeam Gallery so that they will pay him more protection money every year. With our backs against the wall, the only thing keeping us afloat is Only's masterpiece, ‘Birds Pay Homage.' However, Charles is pressuring us to sell him the painting at a low price."

Put it on speaker so I can hear what he has to say too." Rachel instructed, “Stay here. Let's all listen to this.” Daryl, nodding in agreement, placed the phone on the table, activated the speaker, and answered the call Through the phone, a sinister voice cut through the silence. "My patience is wearing thin. I won't waste twith you. Deliver 'Birds Pay Homage' to the Brando Hotel and sign the contract immediately!" "I refuse!" Daryl stood his ground Charles sneered, "You have courage, I'll give you that. Stay at hthen. My associates will be there shortly to break your legs and smash your house." "How dare you!" Daryl retorted, enraged "Ha!" Charles let out a sinister chuckle. "I dare to do whatever I want in this world. I didn't earn my reputation for nothing. You know my methods, don't you? If you're prepared for a fight, then I respect that. But think about your mother. Can she bear to see your legs being broken? Ha! She's endured so much already-she lost her husband in her youth, her daughter lies in a vegetative state, and now she faces the possibility of her son's disability. What a tragedy for that woman!"
"What? How dare you!" Daryl's voice quivered, a mix of rage and fear evident, his entire being trembling in Ο ΠΡΙ response. Ruth and Rachel wore the sshaken and terrified expression, their faces paling with each passing moment. Shaun, consumed by fury, clenched his fists but knew he was inadequate against the malevolence they faced
"Haha." Charles laughed with greater arrogance and madness. Suddenly, madness Marissa interjected with a surge of confidence. "Charles, isn't it? Await us at the hotel. We'll be there soon."
