“Romantic debt?”
After listening to Vera’s sentiments, Emmett suddenly remembered something and spoke up, “Miss, I have the impression that the current head of the Ito family is also a girl, and her age shouldn’t be too far off from Sophie. Her name is Ito Nanako.”
“It’s also a girl?” Vera could not help but wonder in shock, “What’s going on these days? Is it popular for girls to be the head of the family? Could it be that she is also connected to Charlie in some way?”
Emmett hurriedly said, “Oh, by the way, Miss, you asked me to look into Charlie’s entry and exit records, and I found that he stayed in Japan for a while last year. Nanako took over the position of head of the family after he went to Japan. During that time, the three top-ranked families in Japan fought, and the Ito family had the last laugh, but Ito Yahiko lost both his legs because of that incident. Since then, he has retired behind the scenes to let his daughter take charge of the overall situation.”
With that said, Emmett added, “I remember that Tokyo was in utter chaos at the time. Sheldon Schulz’s son and daughter were also kidnapped by a Japanese family. Fortunately, the two escaped, but the Schulz family sent assassins to annihilate the culprit’s entire family in order to retaliate and get revenge.”
“Interesting...” Vera said with a smile, “Something will always happen as long as Charlie has been to a place. If my guess is right, Sophie must have been rescued by Charlie when she met with danger in Japan. That’s how Charlie helped her to rise to become the head of the Schulz family. What Charlie wants may not be compensation or the Schulz family’s assets, but it may be for the Schulz family to bow and surrender to him.”
