The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

That was the only way for Jordan to acquire the remaining pills. He would receive three quarter pills on three separate occasions in order for him to realize his dream of living for another decade or two.

Jordan had lived for more than ninety years. He was a wise man, and immediately understood Charlie's reason. It was evident that Charlie wanted to keep him in check. Even so, how could he complain about it? He sighed in his heart, mournful. 'If Charlie still needs me, I can live. If not, what else can I do but die?'

Upon coming to this realization, Jordan did not hesitate to say, "Mr. Wade, let's go with your plan. I have no objections."

Charlie nodded and turned to Kathleen." Miss Fox, do you have any problems with this arrangement?"

Kathleen hurriedly replied, "I-I... I'm fine... I'm fine with your arrangement, Mr. Wade!"

Kathleen finally understood Charlie's reason for doing things in such a manner. He was helping her.

She was very grateful for him and thought,' Mr. Wade is so kind to me... What should I do to repay such a great deed...?'

Charlie chuckled and said with a smile, "I suggested this for your sake. It'd be stressful for you to pay two hundred billion US dollars in cash at once. Plus, the Fox family will be facing a huge reputation crisis soon. After paying huge compensation to the victim's family, paying another two hundred billion US dollars would definitely burden your cash flow. You won't have enough liquidity on hand to get the Fox family back on track."

Then, Charlie added, "However, if you split the payment for the Rejuvenating Pill, you need to pay only fifty billion US dollars for each quarter pill. This will greatly ease your liquidity concerns."

Kathleen said, "I agree, Mr. Wade. Thank you for your kind consideration."

Jordan was grateful as well and echoed her thanks. "Mr. Wade, you're the Fox family's savior! Thank you!"

Despite saying that, on the inside, Jordan sighed and thought otherwise. 'Charlie's so good at twisting the story... He's trying to restrain me, but instead claims to be helping us to get through the difficulties. He's so young, but he's already so thick- skinned...'

Charlie then turned to Spencer and Xavion again.novelbin

"You two. From today onwards, you must fully cooperate with Miss Fox. You have to help in the family's development. If I find out that either of you are scheming due to conflicting interests, I'll send the soldiers from the Ten Thousand Armies to ship you two to Syria. You can experience the local life and go on a tour for five to eight years. It'll be your second home." Spencer shuddered in fear. He thought in his heart, 'D*mn. I'd rather stay in the Fox family and work for Kathleen than go to Syria! Wade is such a vicious man. Isn't that no better than imprisonment? Why's experience the local life? What's there to do? A five-to-eight year tour? Isn't that just a prison sentence?!"

Spencer hurriedly bowed with deep respect and said fearfully, "Mr. Wade, please rest assured! I swear I'll do my best to help Kathleen run the Fox family. I'll never do anything against the family's interests!" Xavion also bowed and said, "Mr. Wade, don't worry! I won't disappoint you...!"

"Okay." Charlie nodded, pleased by Spencer and Xavion's responses.

"I'm glad that you're both so supportive. I believe Miss Fox will give a relatively comfortable role for you in the Fox family."

After that, Charlie looked around and announced to the entire Fox family, "I have to remind you all. From now on, don't do such nonsense again or repeat Homer's mistakes!"

Everyone was quick to nod obediently. No one dared to say a word.

Charlie turned to Kathleen again and

instructed her, "Miss Fox, the Fox family must establish an internal review team to conduct strict investigations on every member of the family at regular intervals. If any problematic persons are found, remove him or her at once! Don't give them a chance to commit more sins!"
