The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Helena had even made preparations for the worstcase scenario. If the Wade family were to really back out of this marriage alliance, she would only be able to return to Northern Europe and beg her cousin sister, Olivia. She would beg Olivia to give her and her mother a way out and a way to live on account of their sisterhood.

Helena, who was in a dilemma, felt extremely depressed.

However, just as she was in a daze, an idea that seemed a little absurd suddenly came to her mind.

She thought to herself, 'Could Charlie Wade really be a medical expert? If he could see and diagnose my illness at a single glance, perhaps he might also possess the ability to cure my illness...'

As she thought of this, Helena felt as though she had found her last lifesaver. She thought to herself, 'When I go to the Wade family mansion tomorrow, I will have to think of a way to meet with him and privately ask him if he has the ability to save me or not.' At this time, Charlie was still drinking with Yule in the Golding family villa.

The two men were very happy and excited as they drank, and even though they had already finished eating all the dishes on the table, they could not bear t

o leave the table. They continued drinking, one glass after the other, and the atmosphere was very joyful. 2

Rachel was helpless, and she could not bear to let the two men sit at the dinner table and drink without any food. So, she could only arrange for someone to go to the restaurant and buy a whole table full of dishes back.

Yule was in a very good mood, and after he had drunk too much, he patted Charlie's shoulder and said seriously, "Charlie, I'm really happy today! There are two reasons why I'm in such a good mood! Do you know what those two reasons are?" 1 Charlie laughed and said, "Is my visit here today considered one of the reasons?"

Yule laughed and said, "That's for sure! The fact that you can come here is my greatest happiness!"

As he spoke, he asked again, "Do you know the second reason, then?"

Charlie shook his head and asked him, "Uncle Golding, why don't you just tell me directly?"

Yule said earnestly, "The second reason is because you are back to participate in the Wade family's ancestor worship ceremony! With your ability, I believe that you are absolutely qualified to be the next heir of the Wade family. As long as your grandfather is not

muddle-headed, he will definitely hand the Wade family over to you! You are also the only person who is qualified to inherit your father's

legacy and lead the

Wade family forward!" 2

Charlie was silent for a moment before he spoke up," Uncle Golding, to tell you the truth, I am actually not interested in inheriting the Wade family."

Charlie smiled wryly and said, "When my father brought me away from Eastcliff, he had a lot of complaints and discontentment against the Wade family in his heart. I was still young at that time, and I did not know about many things, but I knew that my father was very disappointed in the Wade family. So, I do not have any good feelings or impression of the Wade family either." 2

Yule asked with surprise, "Why?"

Yule sighed and said seriously,

"Charlie, the reason why your father

was very disappointed with the

Wade family was because the Wade family was really not on the same level as him. What your father

wanted to do was to revitalize the Wade family so that the Wade family could stand at the top of the world. However, the Wade family was worried that your father's overly aggressive development strategy would cause the entire Wade family to suffer huge losses if his plan were to fail."

As he spoke of this, Yule was very emotional as he said, "It's like a group of people who are planning to climb Mount Everest. Your father's goal was to reach the summit. However, because the others were afraid that they would die at the top

of the Summit, they gathered to

together and wanted to go down halfway through the climb up the summit. They did not only want to go down, but they also took away all the supplies and materials, thus completely cutting off all of your father's hope to continue reaching the summit. Therefore, your father naturally felt disappointed, resentful, and discontented." 2

At this moment, Yule picked up the wine glass and gulped down the glass of liquor. His eyes were flushed red as he said, "Before your father decided to leave Eastcliff, we also sat together and drank all day like we did today. However, compared to right now, our mood was the complete opposite back then..."

As he spoke, Yule looked at Charlie and said seriously, "Charlie, your father was very reluctant and unwilling when he left Eastcliff. I believe that he was still feeling the same way during his last moments when the accident happened. You have to inherit your father's legacy. Even if it's only just to fight on his behalf, you should also become the head of the Wade family." 9
