NovelEnglishChapter 251: Hearing Marissa say she would go to see Charles, Leila, trembling with fear, swiftly grabbed her arm to prevent her. "Tiffany, why are you meeting Charles, that devil?" "Isn't he compelling us to sell Birds Pay Homage for a shockingly low price? I'll confront him," Marissa replied "I'll accompany you," Leila said Marissa gently patted her hand. "Please stay hand take care of Lawrence and Lindsay for me." "Tiffany, how could I let you go there alone?" Daryl declared. "Since you insist on going, I'll join you. I need to address this issue head-on." "I'll go, too," Shaun added. "I may not be able to manage our family business, but I must safeguard my family." .cóm is the source "Tiffany, let your uncle and cousin accompany you," Rachel interjected. "The men in our Sanchez family cannot let a girl face the devil alone. We simply can't." She glanced at Daryl and Shaun. "You must protect Tiffany." Daryl and Shaun nodded in agreement Marissa didn't refuse their company and departed with them. After thirty minutes, the three arrived at the Brando Hotel Before entering, Daryl warned, "Tiffany, this hotel belongs to Charles. Once we step inside, we're in his territory. Exercise extrcaution." Marissa glanced at the revolving door. "Though it's not as opulent as the Palace Hotel, Charles must have invested over a hundred million dollars to establish it. What is his origin? How did he amass such wealth?" Daryl replied, "Charles was once a thug on Sunvale Street. He somehow earned the favor of Remy Sugden from the Undercity, gradually amassing his fortune." Marissa had never heard of Charles but was familiar with the Undercity. The so-called Undercity referred to the criminal world in Blebert The Undercity thrived on illegal trades outside the bounds of law. Ayla's counterfeit MindEase Elixir was acquired through someone from the Undercity. Remy Sugden held the top position in the Undercity Despite hiding within the underworld, he amassed wealth and influence. Even the four most powerful families in Blebert dared not provoke him. They operated independently, avoiding mutual interference, much like the living shunning the realm of the dead, and vice versa. Many feared Charles, but he was merely an underling in the Undercity. Remy controlled numerous underlings like Charles, creating an extensive underworld network Though Charles was just an underling, his strong backer deterred offenses against him. To cross Charles was to cross Remy, who would retaliate to preserve his honor and power. This was why the less influential families, such as the Sanchez and Clifford clans, dreaded Charles. The Clifford family chose to flatter and align with Charles, while the Sanchez family, valuing their dignity, resisted subservience. Consequently, Charles continually oppressed them, pushing their family business into deeper trouble As Marissa pondered silently, Daryl suspected she was finally experiencing fear. "Tiffany, our family cannot afford to provoke Charles. Shall we depart immediately?"
Marissa smiled. “Uncle Daryl, if we don't go in, Charles will cto our home. We must address and solve this issue. Do you want him to demolish our house?" Her words left Daryl speechless. Summoning his courage, he inquired, "Tiffany, you have the final say on this matter. What should we do next? Please tell us."
A cold glint appeared in Marissa's eyes. "We must enter the hotel and dismantle his stronghold."
While speaking, she pushed the revolving door and entered the hotel's lobby
