The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 1591

In order to please Charlie, Wrigley kept aside the little sympathy that he felt in his heart for Dylan.

He said sternly with a cold expression on his face," Dylan, all of us are adults. So, if you are willing to place a bet then you should honor your bet after losing your bet. I don't think that you should continue talking nonsense here. Hurry up and swallow the jade pendant now!"

The expression on Dylan's face turned very bitter and miserable in an instant.

Wrigley said coldly, "Let me tell you something. You should be feeling very lucky now. You swallowed a necklace the last time. This time, it's just a jade pendant. Fortunately, you did not match this jade pendant with a chain. Otherwise, you'd also have to swallow the chain with the jade pendant then!"

Dylan cried miserably as he looked at cousin, Loreen and pleaded bitterly, "Loreen, my good sister. Please quickly help me to plead with Mr. Wade. Please ask Mr. Wade to let me go this time. I know that I'm wrong now. From now on, I'll never be so pretentious in front of him ever again. From now on, I'm even willing to become his dog. I will do whatever he asks me to do. Even if he asks me to bite anyone, I won't hesitate to do so! So, please just ask him to forgive me and let me off this time..." i

Loreen felt very entangled in her heart at this time.

She had also been very dissatisfied with the way that her cousin was treating Charlie before this.

Women were all the same. Dylan was Loreen's cousin and both of them used to have a very good relationship with one another when they were both young. 4

However, Charlie was the person that Loreen had a crush on for the longest time. So, if these two people were placed in front of her, then she would naturally be biased towards Charlie.

Now that Dylan was pleading with her to intercede with Charlie on his behalf, Loreen suddenly did not know what to do.

When Sylvia saw this, she hurriedly ran in front of Loreen and she was already prepared to kneel down a s she cried. She kept wailing as she said, "Loreen, please give your aunt face and please help me to plead with Mr. Wade to be magnanimous and let your cousin off this time. I will even kneel down before you!"

Loreen wanted to reach out her hands to stop her aunt from kneeling down in front of her, but Sylvia had already knelt down in front of her. Both parties were caught in a deadlock.

Loreen really could not bear to see her aunt kneeling in front of her. So, she hurriedly looked at Charlie with an apologetic expression on her face as she hurriedly pleaded, "Charlie, please forgive my brother and let him off this time on my account..." 7

Charlie hesitated for a moment before he said to Loreen, "Let's step aside to talk first."

Loreen hurriedly nodded before she followed Charlie to the side. She kept staring at Charlie with a nervous expression on her face because she was afraid that Charlie would be mad at her too. s

At this time, Charlie looked at her and said, "When you were in Aurous Hill and the Butcher Brothers tried to assassinate you back then, was that matter related to Dylan in any way?" 4

Loreen quickly waved her hand and said, "No! Dylan did not do it...it was done by my cousin from my father's side of the family."

"Another cousin of yours?" Charlie frowned as he asked, "Is he here today?" 4

Loreen shook her head before she said, "I heard that after the incident the last time, someone from a very powerful background came and gave the Thomas family a warning. My cousin had a guilty conscience and he was frightened, so he went abroad to hide. He has not come back since. Even though he was asked to come back for my grandmother's birthday celebration this time, he refused to come back too." Charlie nodded slightly before he said, "So, there are n o conflicts at all between you and your cousin, Dylan, right?"

"That's right." Loreen hurriedly said, "My cousin is...I don't quite know how to put it. He might be asking for trouble sometimes and he's also very ignorant and incompetent. However, he has never done anything outrageous or terrible. He simply likes to show off..."

As she spoke about this, Loreen started pleading, "So, Charlie...could you please give me face and not hold it against him for this matter today? Could you please do that for me?"

As Loreen spoke, she also grabbed Charlie's arm as she shook it coquettishly as she pleaded with Charlie. She also looked a little bashful as she earnestly pleaded for him to let her cousin brother off. i Charlie was helpless. Since Loreen had already interceded on behalf of her cousin, then he could not continue making things difficult for her. After all, he would still have to give her face as they were friends. 4 However, Dylan had simply been too pretentious earlier. If he were to let him off just like that, then he would be going too easy on him.

As he thought about this, Charlie told Loreen, "Well, since he's your cousin, then no matter what it is, I will still give you face."
