The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife

Chapter 377 There is No More Luke Jenkins

"Save them, faster.” The people on the shore started taking action.

The people on the boat glared at Charlotte furiously.

Charlotte raised her eyebrows and could not care less about the two. Her voice also became louder and sharper, "You better get your sorry asses off the boat now, otherwise, your fate will be the same as those two! Let me tell you, this ship belongs to Joseph and m e. None of you are allowed to board it. Now move, get off the ship."

Charlotte started driving people down the ship.

Everyone was exasperated, but nobody dared to fight back due to Charlotte's identity.

When Charlotte saw the situation, she could not help feeling even more arrogant.

She despised the trudging of an old man and kicked him to the ground, then continued to urge, "If you can't walk fast, you’ll crawl off the boat!"

The neat and peaceful retreat sequence became chaotic all of a sudden due to Charlotte’s madness.

"Boss." Rainn could not help but take a glimpse at Joseph.

A sheer cold beam flashed through Joseph's eyes, and he approached the scene without any expression.

"Boss is here, make way," Rainn said quickly.

Everybody stepped aside and Joseph walked over calmly.

"Joseph, I got them to vacate the best ship for us, come up," Charlotte shouted with a chuckle as soon as she saw Joseph.

Joseph ignored her. He only glared at the person who was maintaining the order, "Have I said that if someone disrupts order, you'll shoot on site?"

Joseph had always been very nice to his men, but his rules were notoriously strict. The person in charge of order maintenance trembled. "Boss, I..."

"Just tell me, did you get the order?" Joseph continued to question.

"I heard," the person replied.

"Great, you heard it, but you didn't execute it. Now scat," Joseph said unemotionally.

"Yes sir." The person dared not argue and responded immediately.

"Joseph, you..." Charlotte felt that Joseph’s attitude was a little weird. She was taken aback for a split second, and when she was about to speak, Joseph suddenly aimed at her.

"Joseph, what are you doing!" Charlotte's face turned all pale instantly.

"No one should ever be allowed to challenge my rules.

You’re no exception," Joseph said with an unconcerned tone.

Charlotte’s eyes glimmered with the hint of disbelief." Joseph, you can't do this, you..."

Before she finished her sentence, bang! 1

Joseph pulled the trigger.

Blood spattered like a rose blooming from Charlotte’s forehead. 1

Charlotte dropped to the ground, up till her final moment, she still did not understand why Joseph would kill her for these pariahs.

Joseph raised his head calmly, "Now, continue to queue up and evacuate. Move, we’re running out of time."

"Yes." Having witnessed Charlotte’s death, not only did everyone not panic, but they were all worked up, and some even felt joy.

This showed how abominable Charlotte’s actions were.

Since then, the operation went on smoothly.

Joseph and Rainn boarded the last ship. Just when they were about to leave the sea area, there was a bang, a huge explosion, and the whole landmark began to shake.

Thick smoke suffused the sky above the ocean.

Gazing at the distant smoke, someone in the crowd could not help but start weeping softly. Then, the crying sound spread like a plague, and it grew louder and louder.

"Boss..." Rainn stood beside Joseph with slight trepidation. "Everybody seems very emotional."

Joseph glanced into the distance with a calm expression. "They've lived here for a lifetime, so let them be."

To these people, having a peaceful area where they could live was very crucial.

But now, everything had been ruined.

Rainn stopped talking and stared into the distance with Joseph for a while.

After a long time, he asked softly, "Boss, what about Charlotte’s body? What should we do with it? She's not of importance, but Luke has been in charge of the finances of our organization recently and he made the business vigorous. We've killed Charlotte, I'm afraid that Luke will have a problem with that."

Joseph felt a little troubled.

Charlotte Jenkins. This woman had been useless since the very beginning-it didn't matter whether she lived or died.

However, Luke was very talented. Otherwise, he would not have handed over his financial authority to Luke.

But it was because of Luke's growing significance that led Charlotte into believing that he must rely on them. That was why she became more and more arrogant and ended up dead.

"Why don’t we..." A ruthless resolution seemed to have come to Rainn's mind.

Joseph squinted his eyes and said, "Nah. Bring Charlotte's body to Luke. Then, tell him everything that had happened today. You'll do this yourself. Tell him that I don’t regret killing Charlotte. If he wants revenge, I'll be there. Also, return the money we obtained from selling the Jenkins Corporation to him a s well."

"Boss! I’m fine with the not killing him part, but returning him the money?" Rainn was slightly confused and annoyed.

Joseph snorted coldly, "Just do what you’re told to do. There are lines that we never cross." 2

He was forced into committing a lot of flagitious things.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

But when there was a choice, he would prefer not to cross the lines he had in his heart.

The money came from the sale of Jenkin’s Corporation originally. It belonged to Luke anyway. It would be fine if Luke chose to stay in the organization, but if he wanted to leave, it would only b e justified to return the money to him.

Joseph had made the decision, and Rainn could only execute it.

He brought the body to Luke and told him the whole incident.

Luke remained silent for a long time after listening to the story. In the end, he left with Charlotte's body and the five billion dollars that Joseph returned to him.

Luke cremated Charlotte's body and scattered her ashes into the sea.

He stood by the beach for hours and hours, and then a n inexplicable smile emerged on his face.

His mother murdered his father, and he got the news that Madam Jenkins had committed suicide in prison not long ago. As for Charlotte, she was already one with the ocean.

He was the only person left in this world. 1

He once hated Joseph and felt that it was Joseph who brought destruction to him.

But after giving it a clear thought, Joseph only extended his arms. The person who grabbed on to it was himself.

The Jenkin's Corporation was a goner due to his stupidity. And Charlotte was six feet under due to his accommodation.

He knew that his sister was disgraceful, but why had h e not been strict to her and educated her? In the end, somebody else helped him fulfill his responsibility as a brother. And the price that Charlotte

had to pay was her life.

Perhaps he should resent Joseph at this moment and find ways to avenge him. But Luke realized that he could not even make up his mind to do so.

Luke gave off a wry chuckle. He could not go back to Joseph, but he owned five billion dollars.

In that case, he should start a new life with the money.

Luke took his cellphone out and scrolled through the trending news of the day with a complex expression.

Susan was kidnapped, but he did not know about it until he saw the news today.

In their lives, Susan and he had been separated by the Pacific Ocean, a distance that could no longer be overcome easily, i

Mum, Charlotte, Susie...

The bonds between him and the past were cut off, strand by strand.

From then on, he was alone.

With another wry titter, he threw the phone into the sea, and along with it, his attachment to the past. 1

He stood by the sea and lost track of time. He then turned away and left. From now on, in this world, there was no more Luke Jenkins.
