Chapter 36 My Person Has Arrived.
The people present were all taken aback, feeling that these were the words a true socialite should say.
In the eyes of society, someone who only relies on themselves to make their way is just a foolish young man who is not afraid of death.
The truly formidable individuals are not only capable themselves but also have someone backing them up.
When he mentioned making a phone call, the first person to feel nervous was Erick.
After all, Henry had initially mentioned his name, and he always felt that someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes.
What Erick feared was that Charles wouldn't be able to handle the people behind Henry.
There's a saying in Harbor Springs society, "Three gang bosses and four young masters," or sometimes it's "Three gang bosses and four gang bosses," and Charles is one of the four gang bosses.
If it turned out that one of the other three gang bosses was behind Henry, then there would be nothing to fear. Everyone was on an equal footing, and they would also give each other face.
What they feared was that Henry was connected to the three major families of the gang bosses.
When Henry mentioned making a phone call, Charles nodded.
Henry asked, "Can my brother hand me the phone?"
Charles glanced at Henry, and Henry handed his phone to him, saying, "Kid, you'd better call the most powerful person you know in Harbor Springs. Otherwise, you're as good as dead."
Henry took the phone and dialed Brandon's number.
Brandon was Henry's cellmate, released two years ago.
Although he was two years older than Henry, he was completely protected by Henry in prison.
When he was released, he mentioned that his boss was Justin, one of the three gang bosses in Harbor Springs and someone with a lot of influence.
In the future, when Henry is released and if there's anything happening in Harbor Springs, just give him a call, even if it involves murder, he can handle it.
Henry usually doesn't like owing people, but this time he made the call because of Andrew and Emily.
If it weren't for them, Henry would have fought long ago.
Brandon was playing pool with his buddies at the pool hall when he saw an unfamiliar number and answered, "Who is this?"
"Brandon, it's Henry."
Charles and Henry were puzzled. There's no one by the name of Brandon in Harbor Springs, right?
"Brother, it's you! Have you arrived in Harbor Springs? Where are you? I'll come pick you up!"
"I'm in the Violet Bar, Room 888, I've been set up, please come over quickly."
"Alright, I'll be there right away!"
Charles and Henry looked at each other in confusion again, thinking: Although they didn't hear each other's names, the other person sounded confident, saying they would come over right after the call.
As long as they were from Harbor Springs, especially people in society, who wouldn't know that the Violet Bar was under Charles' protection?
Knowing it was their place, without a second thought, they would come over immediately. Who exactly is this Brandon?
After hanging up the phone, Brandon immediately said to Justin, "Justin, let's go to the Violet Bar. Do you remember me telling you about my brother Henry in the cell? He's in trouble at the Violet Bar, let's go quickly."
Justin threw down his pool cue and said, "Let's go!"
Brandon reminded, "My brother Henry is quite capable. If someone can cause him trouble, they won't be weak. We only have five brothers, should we call more people?"
"No problem," Justin said, "Sean, who is watching the place over there, is my buddy. It will be fine."
The pool hall was not far from the Violet Bar, and they arrived at the private room in no time. Everyone was surprised when they saw each other.
Charles and Henry thought that the person Henry called was someone powerful, but it turned out to be Justin.
Justin is also a member of the local small gang, but despite being 30 years old, he hasn't made much of a name for himself, even considering becoming a brother under Sean.
Not to mention in Harbor Springs, even under Charles, Sean is not considered significant.
For any major events, projects, or violent matters, Charles always lets the other capable men handle them.
Tasks like protecting the territory are entrusted to people like Sean.
Justin even considered following Sean, and Brandon, who is still under Justin, turned out to be the person Henry mentioned.
Charles and Henry couldn't help but laugh and cry.
Justin, seeing so many people in the private room and both Charles and Henry present, started trembling before even understanding what was going on.
Charles asked Justin impatiently, "Are you the people that Henry brought here?"
Henry glanced up and felt a sense of relief.
Those who hold power in society have a certain aura, especially the true leaders. They often appear unremarkable, but once something happens, their powerful and intimidating presence cannot be hidden.
Looking at Justin, his presence was even weaker than Brandon's.
In his mind, Henry cursed, "Brandon, you've really put me in a tough spot!"
Justin, seeing Charles speak to him, quickly explained, "No, I don't know any Henry. I just came to hang out and walked into the wrong place."
Brandon, seeing Henry lying on the ground, quickly ran over and embraced him, saying, "Brother, brother..."
Henry looked at Brandon, shook his head with closed eyes.
"Justin," Brandon turned to the pale-faced Justin and said, "He is my brother Henry!"
Justin quickly responded, "Why didn't you say so? He has provoked Charles, the big brother."
Emily, who was crouching nearby, also thought that Henry had brought a savior, but upon hearing the tone, she instantly felt despair.
Andrew had been kneeling there the whole time, looking like a fool.
Erick, seeing that these were the people Henry had brought, almost burst out laughing.
Brandon, seeing the unrecognizable Henry, felt a warmth in his chest, his eyes turning red. He looked at Charles and said, "Charles, I know I can't say much in front of you. But this is truly my life-and-death brother. Please spare him, and from now on, my life is yours!"
