The Charismatic Charlie Wade – Chapter 6127

When Jacob learned that Charlie and Claire had not attended the event the previous night, he felt a twinge of resentment. He believed he deserved the $100,000 for risking his life, while Charlie and his daughter could receive the same amount without facing any danger.

It made Jacob feel that the significance of risking his life had been diminished to nothing. After all, he had been a top student in college, and he found himself calculating the situation, if a person is X while on the island and the risk taken is Y, then X+Y was supposed to equate to the $100,000. However, with Charlie and Claire's absence, X equaled $100,000, meaning that if they were to bring in the two conditions, the value of Y was effectively zero.

At that moment, Elaine also felt a sense of dissatisfaction and quietly complained to Hani, “Hani, you really need to let your boss know that we almost faced a life-threatening situation at the bar yesterday. My daughter and son-in-law didn’t even go! If they get $100,000, shouldn’t we at least get $200,000 to make things fair? We shouldn’t be the only ones taking the risks, should we?”

Hani responded apologetically, “I’m sorry, Ms. Elaine, but this decision was made by our group’s president. I’m just a lowly butler and don’t have the authority to speak with him. I can’t offer him any advice..."

Elaine retorted, “Then surely we can make it $150,000? You need to give us something more to make it sensible!”
