The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 3999

He did not doubt the truthfulness behind Claudia's words. This was because this world was never as peaceful or kind as ordinary people thought it was.

Despite the high development in the economy in Europe and the United States, the underground world in Europe and the United States was also the dirtiest place in this world, and it was second to none. Claudia herself was the daughter of the former leader of the mafia, and she must have heard about these things.

What Charlie was most angry about was the fact that these mafia members who had hands and feet and were perfectly capable of working were making huge profits from selling women. This was simply outrageous. So, he suppressed his anger and spoke up to ask Claudia, "How did you know that Gopher is planning to make a move on Stephanie?"

Claudia took out a lipstick-like flashlight from her pocket and said, "This is a violet flashlight with a specific wavelength which is not quite the same as the wavelength for the violet light that is generally used for the inspection of banknotes. It is not easy to buy this flashlight on the market, and there is also a special potion that goes with this violet flashlight. The potion will only show up under the wavelength of this violet light. After they have selected their target, they will use this potion to draw a specific mark on the door of the selected target's home." "This is a rule made between several gangs in order to avoid competing against each other. They limit the maximum number of marks for the same gang at the same time. If there is a certain gang's mark on the door of a certain house, and if the number of marks is within the gang's limit, this proves that this gang has already chosen this house as a target and is waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike. In that case, no other gangs are allowed to target this house anymore."

As Claudia spoke of this, she looked at Charlie and said, "The day I sent you the text message was the first time I found the mark left behind by Gopher in front of Mrs. Lewis' house."

Charlie asked again, "Why did you contact me, then?"

Claudia explained, "Because Stephanie often talks about you the most. Moreover, you're simply invincible in her eyes and so, I secretly used her cell phone to find out your cell phone number. I wanted to ask you to help her." Charlie nodded gently and asked, "Have you ever told Stephanie about this?"

"No." Claudia shook her head and said seriously, "Gopher's subordinates have already been eyeing her, and the reason why they haven't made a move on her is because they haven't found the right opportunity to do so. However, if Stephanie were to leave Vancouver by herself at this time, it would only speed up the actions of the other party. So, I have been staying by Stephanie's side over the past two days, and I also used an anonymous phone number to call the police several times at night in order to attract the police patrol cars. I can barely delay the other party for a few days, but this is not a long-term plan." Charlie frowned. He recalled Gopher's words to Stephanie, and he asked, "Based on what you have just said, it seems as though Gopher is ready to make a move on

Stephanie tonight, then?"

Claudia said, "Gopher has always been interested in Stephanie, and he has been trying to convince her to accept his pursuit. He would come over once or twice a day these days, but Stephanie has never agreed to it. Based on what I know about him, his patience should have almost reached its limits."

After listening to Claudia's words,

Charlie nodded slightly. It seemed as

though Stephanie's good deeds toward Claudia had still reaped good results for her. If Claudia hadn't found a way to protect her, she wouldn't have been able to

Charlie to come over her wait for

she

would have already been kidnapped

by the other party.

As Charlie thought of this, he looked at Claudia and said seriously, "Thank you, Claudia. If it wasn't for you, something bad would have already happened to Stephanie."

Claudia said seriously, "If it wasn't for Mrs. Lewis and Stephanie who took me in, I'm afraid that I would not even have a place to live now..."

Charlie looked at the fake scar on her face, and he spoke up and asked, "The reason why you disguised yourself as if you have been burned should also be because you were worried about being targeted by them, right?"

"Yes..." Claudia nodded and said,

"After all, Gopher and his gang are not the only ones doing such things in Vancouver. There are also several other gangs doing the same kind business. I can be certain that

J.ne

Gopher and his gang would not do anything to me, but there is no way for me to ensure that the other gangs would not make a move on me. So, it would be much safer for me to disguise myself this way. After all, no one would be interested in a woman who has 'severe burns'

on half of her face...

Having said that, she said to Charlie anxiously, "Mr. Wade, you should take Stephanie to the airport directly while it's not dark yet! As long as you take her out of Canada, Gopher and the others will not be able to do anything to her!" Charlie shook his head and smiled coldly a s he asked her, "How many people are there in this Italian gang?" Claudia said, "There are many of them, at least seven or eight hundred men... You cannot fight them alone..." Charlie sneered and said indifferently," Seven or eight hundred... It's a little lesser, but it's better than nothing!"
