The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 4035

Andre's confession sent all the Italian gang members thunderstruck.

Someone glared at Gopher and demanded darkly, "Is Andre telling the truth?!"

"O-of course not!" Gopher was quick to deny, but voice trembled slightly as he spoke. He pointed at Andre and snarled," Shut up, Andre! Now that Mr. Wade is letting me be boss, you're acting like I'm stealing all your influence! You know you're at risk of losing power, so you slander me with a lie. You're painting me as a shameless villain so Mr. Wade will be disappointed in me. But Mr. Wade is a brilliant man. He won't fall for your lies!"

At this, a strange grin appeared on Charlie's face. He played along with Gopher and snapped icily, "Andre, your tactic is quite despicable! The way I see it, this b' stard, err, this man looks loyal and honest. His words are reliable, and he even has a good hairstyle. It's obvious he's a loyal person. He'd never be ungrateful."

Having said that, Charlie narrowed his eyes at Andre in distaste. His tone was disdainful as he said, "But you, you have a chubby face and a chin full of stubble. You look like a bad guy through and through! The way I see it, you must be the one who killed your former boss!"

Andre didn't understand how Gopher's hairstyle would make him look like a gangster or how something like that had anything to do with loyalty, but Charlie's accusations terrified him nonetheless.

He fell to his knees with a loud thud and stammered, "M-Mr. Wade... I'm telling the truth! It was Gopher who suggested killing the boss. He even did it himself! He had always been displeased with our former boss, saying that his salary was too low, and that our former boss didn't take good care of him. He didn't want to be our former boss's driver and lackey anymore, s o he got me to help him and said he could quietly finish our former boss off. After that, he'll help me take over the gang, under the condition that I let him be the second- in-command..."

Gopher paled slightly at this. Still he

insisted, "What nonsense are you spouting, Andre?! The old boss was my brother-in-law! How could I possibly kill him? Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't do the same to my sister and nephews! It was you who wanted to kill him! You were the one who wanted his position, andr now, you've weaved such a vicious lie! You should be wary of karma!" Andre responded with gritted teeth, "You're a really good actor, Gopher! Did you think I wouldn't leave evidence after agreeing to

collaborate with you in case you turn

on me one day?"

Having said that, he turned to Charlie and begged, "Mr. Wade, I have a voice recording in my phone for what happened that day. If you don't believe me, let me play it for you!"

Gopher was frightened out of his wits. He knelt before Charlie and shouted pleadingly, "Don't pay him any mind, Mr. Wade. He's crazy! He's trying to frame me..."

Charlie looked at Gopher and said, "Since you're in the right, Gopher, you shouldn't be influenced by this despicable man's claims. A good anvil does not fear the hammer Since he's framing you, I don't think he can present any worthwhile evidence!"

Gopher was dumbstruck. He shivered, wanting to speak, but Charlie wouldn't give him a chance. Charlie then ordered Andre,' Play that recording for me."

Andre took out his phone excitedly, as if he had been granted amnesty. While he searched for the recording, Gopher frantically reached for his phone.

Gopher only had one thought on his

iel

mind now. Since Andre claimed he had a recording, it must be true. Once the recording was played, even if Charlie wouldn't kill him, the Italians would never forgive him.

He had to snatch Andre's phone away no matter what, and then destroy the device completely.
