The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 1211

Reuben was gravely distraught now. 6

Never did he expect that his grandfather would still curry favor with Charlie even if he had to offend Dylan during the process, i

Reuben was not a fool. He could see that the reason why his grandfather took Charlie so seriously was that he was a little addicted to the Rejuvenating Pill. 6

In other words, instead of gripping the olive branch that Dylan and the Koch family had tossed at them, his grandfather would rather get on good terms with Charlie. This proved that the old man no longer cared about the future of the family nor the wealth they could generate, but rather how many more years he could live, s

Otherwise, he would never have given up the Koch family's offer and chosen Charlie.

This made Reuben extremely disappointed and upset.

First of all, Lord Moore had given up the opportunity offered by the Koch family, and this meant that the Moore family had lost a good chance to rise above and beyond, i Secondly, if Lord Moore was given another

Rejuvenating Pill because of him taking Charlie's side, the old man would live even longer than anticipated, wouldn't he?

If his grandfather kept on living, when would his father inherit the Moore family?

If his father couldn't inherit the family fortune in the near future, when would his turn of inheritance come?

No, he didn't want the old man to live another thirty or forty years, he would be so devastated!

He was almost 30 years old this year, and his father was in his early 50s. If his grandfather died 30 years later, his father would be in his 80s when he inherited the family, s

If his father lived for another 8 or 10 years, by the time he inherited the family, he would be in his 60s or 70s.

No, this was totally unacceptable!

Reuben had everything planned out in his mind. He hoped that his grandfather would die today. That way, his father could rightfully inherit the family and he would hold a bigger power than he did now. 9 Then, he would quietly wait for his chance while working under his father for another 10 years, and when the time came, he would persuade his father to retire early and hand over the position of the head of the family to him. 3

However, the Rejuvenating Pill had appeared out of nowhere, and it had become the ultimate hurdle to his wonderful plan!

With the pill hanging around, only God knew when the old man would die!

Tyler, Reuben's father, was equally upset.

He was ready to inherit the family business.

Previously, when Lord Moore was so ill that he was literally on his deathbed, Tyler was stealthily happy and glad, feeling that it was finally his moment to shine, s

However, things had taken a turn for the worse when Jasmine brought Charlie over.

From then on, things had spiraled out of his imaginary route.

At this moment, Lord Moore suddenly stood up and turned to the audience with a smile. "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming to my granddaughter's birthday banquet. I would like to make some announcements on this joyful day."

Everyone turned their gazes at Lord Moore, wondering what he was going to announce.

Lord Moore sighed and said, "Jasmine has been a poor girl growing up. When she was very young, her parents passed away. It was my deceased wife and me who brought her up.”

Reuben and Tyler exchanged confused and curious glances. Neither of them knew what Lord Moore's real objective of this announcement was.
