The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Chapter 3749



Charlie frowned hard at the thought of Kylie's ulterior motive. He came to the conclusion that Kylie might be a bad person.

He even speculated that Kylie made her assistant purchase Graham's villa not for her grandfather to live in, but as an excuse to approach him.

In that case, her sponsorship to the Aurous Hill's Calligraphy and Painting Association might be just a pretense.

Perhaps her real motive was to get in contact with his father-in-law Jacob first. Then, she would approach him by using his father-in-law's name and the excuse of wanting him to look at Feng Shui.

Charlie was suddenly greatly alarmed.

After he had accepted ten billion and Emgrand Group from Stephen, Charlie had tried his best to hide his real identity from others, especially from his wife's family.

He stayed low-key, mainly because he did not want anyone to come to them for his true identity, particularly his wife, Claire.

Charlie managed to hide his real identity for more than a year. Although he had made a lot of enemies during that time, no one else paid attention to Claire apart from his arrogant and domineering aunt,

Carmen Wade.

However, Kylie's arrival had broken his temporary peace. She managed to get in touch with him, and even found his father-in-law and wife.

Her actions had undoubtedly put Charlie on high alert. What she did to him was what he wanted to avoid the most. For that, he made up his mind to uncover Kylie's true identity as soon as possible and retaliate by luring her into his trap.

If she tried to endanger the people around him, he would make her disappear for good!

Meanwhile, Kathleen and her people were on the highway, making their way back.

Kathleen couldn't contain her

excitement and told Sherry gleefully, "Sherry, go visit Claire on my behalf later in the afternoon. I'd like to schedule an appointment with her for a site visit at Sonfo Valley. The budget for the renovation will be thirty million dollars. 10% will be affocated to the design fee. If she's willing to accept, I'll let her be in charge of the whole project."

Sherry was puzzled. "But Young Lady, you've already met Charlie. Why waste your time on Claire?"

Kathleen explained solemnly, "I'm doing this just to be prepared. If my grandfather can't win the Rejuvenating Pill at the auction, I could at least have a silver lining here."

Sherry said, "Young Lady, with the Fox family's strength, I think Lord Jordan has a good chance to win the Rejuvenating Pill at the auction."

Kathleen shook her head. "To be honest, I'm not putting any hopes on the auction at all."

Sherry couldn't understand the reason. "Why do you say so, Young Lady? Did you hear any rumors?"

Sherry was stunned to hear Kathleen's prediction. She couldn't fathom the reason behind Kathleen's pessimism over the auction. "Huh? Why do you think s o, Young Lady?"

Kathleen looked out the window and chuckled lightly. "I deduced it based on my analytical model, but the model is too broad and involves too many elements. I can't explain it clearly, so don't ask."© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"Alright, then..." Sherry nodded helplessly before shooting another question, "Miss, do you think we'll be able to get the Rejuvenating Pill from Charlie?"

Kathleen shrugged her shoulders and spread her hands. "To be frank, I'm not sure either. Charlie's an enigma to me. I can't simply judge him by experience."

Kathleen sighed, but the

determination in her eyes burned

ever brightly.'ll be pinning all my hopes on the auction if I don't try and approach Charlie. If I get to know him, that means I'll have a second possibility. I won't give up, even if this possibility only has a 1% success rate! As long as there's a glimmer of hope, it's better than getting stuck at a dead end!"

She continued, "If I can get to know his wife, that means my success rate will be slightly more than 1%. My chances will improve if I become their acquaintance and start a friendship with her."

Sherry nodded in agreement. "If we take Jacob into consideration as well, do you think we'll have a higher chance at winning?"
