The Amazing Son in Law The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Once upon a time, Lily had been deeply concerned about how Jagoan’s personality, character and life perspective would take
shape as he grew up.
As a mother, she naturally aspired to provide Jagoan with the finest education, a nurturing environment, and impeccable
guidance. However, reality dictated that she could only silently observe as Jagoan grew up alongside other children in the
orphanage. She could only watch in silence as Jagoan, having graduated from high school, decided to work at a construction
site, and she had no power to intervene.
In those early days, Lily had also fretted about whether the environment would warp Jagoan’s views, whether he would become
overly materialistic, or if he’d become excessively driven by profit. Fortunately, somewhere between Jagoan’s affluent upbringing
as a Young Master and his later life as a destitute orphan, he seemed to find a balance that aligned with Lily’s own values.
This balance not only allowed him to maintain a healthy perspective on life and a strong sense of justice but also spared him
from the excessively rigid moral standards imposed by his father, Bruce. To some extent, it mended the gaps in Bruce’s
character.
Much like the traditional succession process of the Jagoan family’s patriarchal role, the passing of the torch should wait until the
elder Jagoan Jagoan chose to retire. Then, the elder Jagoan Jagoan would personally designate the heir. If other children
disagreed, they would need to find a way to sway the elder Jagoan Jagoan’s decision, even if it meant resorting to ruthless
measures. Maybe they’d even plot to eliminate the original heir first and then seize the throne themselves.
Such was the way of today’s wealthy families and the ancient princes and generals, but Jagoan opted for an entirely different
path. He didn’t follow the Jagoan family’s conventional procedures, nor did he extend any courtesies to them when he claimed
his position.
With a casual demeanor in front of the Jagoan family and Wesley Drake, Jagoan declared that he had taken over the Jagoan
family’s affairs and needed more loyal individuals on his side. He made it clear that if Wesley desired to pledge allegiance, loyalty
to him was non-negotiable.
In a single sentence, he not only won over the entire Dragon Temple but also unequivocally stated that he was the new head of
the Jagoan family. He left no room for the Jagoan family to react, deliberate, or even inform them of his decision personally. He
chose to relay the outcome through a third party. This audacious, uncompromising approach allowed Jagoan to secure the
position of Jagoan family head without opposition. If Jagoan Jagoan resisted, he would have no choice but to step aside and
yield to someone else.

When Jagoan shared this news with Lily, it filled her with excitement to the point of sleeplessness. Lily had never cared much
about the Jagoan family’s modest assets, but the position of Jagoan family head had always been a thorn in her side.
Everyone knew that her late husband had been the most suitable candidate for this position, yet the Jagoan family pretended to
be oblivious. Even in death, her husband had been denied the chance to lead the Jagoan family. Lily had long harbored
resentment over this matter, and after two decades, Jagoan had effortlessly unraveled this knot, bringing her immense joy and
heightened expectations for Jagoan’s future.

Meanwhile, in the old Jagoan family residence, after sharing a meal with the elder Jagoan Jagoan, Jagoan couldn’t contain his
eagerness any longer. He addressed the elder Jagoan and Jagoan, saying, “Grandfather, Butler Thompson, please go ahead
and eat. I’d like to visit my parents room.”
Respectfully, Jagoan inquired, “Young Master, what is your purpose? Would you like one of your attendants to accompany you?”
Jagoan waved his hand dismissively, asserting, “There’s no need. Maria and I will be going to my parents room. You needn’t
worry about us.”
Maria rose from her seat and politely added, “Grandfather Jagoan, Butler Thompson, please enjoy your meal.”
Maria followed Jagoan as they made their way to the courtyard where Jagoan’s parents had lived. This courtyard featured four
connected rooms for Jagoan’s parents, including a main hall, a bedroom, a study and Jagoan’s own room. In simpler terms, it
was a three-bedroom apartment with a living room.
Jagoan had spent several years in this residence and was quite familiar with its layout. Additionally, there hadn’t been significant
changes since his departure, making it easy for him to identify.
Upon entering the main hall, he couldn’t help but reminisce about the days when he lived here with his parents. It stirred a
whirlwind of emotions within him. Jagoan then proceeded to explore the other rooms, including the main hall and bedroom.
There, he noticed some new bedding and pillows, indicating a recent update. Consequently, these areas held no potential clues.
Jagoan decided to focus his attention on the study, a room converted from a wing of the courtyard. Though not expansive, it
housed three walls of bookshelves laden with an extensive collection of books. Even twenty years later, many books on these
shelves had been left untouched by Bruce and Lily, their glasses-wearing owners.

Jagoan took a quick survey and realized that the books could be categorized into three distinct groups. The first group comprised
works on finance and management, primarily written by renowned economists and financial practitioners. The second group
encompassed history and biographies, while the third group was dedicated to the Book of Changes and Gossip.
During his youth, Jagoan hadn’t been particularly interested in these books, primarily focusing on history while neglecting the
rest. Today, he discovered his parents’ long-standing fascination with Feng
Shui.
Maria also scanned the books, noting, “Young Master, your parents have assembled some of the world’s finest literature on Feng
Shui secrets. Some of these books are centuries old and out of print. It’s evident they had a deep involvement and research
interest in Feng Shui and Changes.”
Jagoan nodded, his thoughts already focused on how to systematically review these books for any concealed information. As he
examined the bookshelf with care, he mentioned to Maria, “With this many books, sorting through them will take days, at the very
least.”
Maria smiled, responding, “Time isn’t an issue. We can sift through them methodically. If it pleases the Young Master, I’ll assist in
cataloging.”
Jagoan agreed, “Let’s start with the books on Changes. Given my parents involvement in Taoism, there might be notes hidden
within them.”
Maria eagerly accepted, inquiring, “Young Master, I want to share this responsibility, but I’d like to know if you’re comfortable with
it.”
Jagoan assured her, “Miss Jagoan, please assist me. If you spot anything unusual, alert me immediately.”
“Of course,” Maria agreed with enthusiasm.
They resumed their search, one book at a time. However, it wasn’t until they reached a black book, roughly the size of a
standard volume, that Maria’s excitement bubbled to the surface. She flipped it open and exclaimed, “Young Master, there’s a
photo album here!”
