The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 1828

Clayton was extraordinarily depressed, but he couldn't bring himself to object. So, he tried to pull the main topic back to the spotlight. "Father, shouldn't we be discussing our venture in Japan? You just mentioned there should be no direct confrontation with Schulz family. So what should we do now?" 2

"We cannot be too obvious in exposing ourselves, but you can send someone to meet Ito Yahiko in private," replied Jeremiah. 2

Clayton started to feel a little irritated. He suddenly had an idea to head over to Tokyo to clear his mind, and thus, volunteered. "Father, why don't I fly to Tokyo tomorrow morning and meet up with Ito Yahiko." Jeremiah nodded, but his reply surprised Clayton. "We must definitely meet him, but the person meeting him should not be you." 2

Taken aback, Clayton asked. "Father, what do you mean?"

Jeremiah replied, "Previously, the Schulz' sent their younger generation to meet Ito family. If Wade family were to send you, however, it just doesn't seem right. It'll look as if we are not as competent as the Schulz'." 1

As he spoke, Jeremiah looked at Felix, Clayton's son, and also his eldest grandson. "Felix, I want you to get prepared," he said. "You'll leave before ten. After

lunch, you will head over to Tokyo." 5

Felix hurriedly stood up and respectfully replied, "Okay, grandpa, I'll get ready now. But grandpa, after meeting Yahiko, how should I talk to him about the project?"

Jeremiah waved his hand. "You don't have to talk about any matters related to the project. I will prepare some gifts for Ito Yahiko. Tell him that it's a gesture of my appreciation since I would like to be friends. Al you need to do is just leave your contact and then comeback." 4

Clearly surprised, Felix asked, "That easy?"

Jeremiah nodded. "Yes. It's just that easy."

Jeremiah continued, "To fly two thousand kilometers to discuss a contract doesn't seem to be sincere. But to fly two thousand kilometers to visit a sick patient, that is what we call sincerity." 3 Clayton smiled as he spoke. "Father, your planning is still so much better than ours. The fact that Schulz family has nobody to rely on has really opened up a golden opportunity for Wade family!" Jeremiah nodded as he brimmed in excitement. "This is what we call, and the second mouse gets the cheese." 1

Noon.

Charlie had lunch with Nanako at the Ito residence, and the two of them brought Ito Yahiko a meal prepared for him at the hospital.

Just as they were about to leave the house, Sheldon Schulz and a few other subordinates who were carrying exquisite gift boxes were seen at Ito Yahiko's ward. 3

Ito Yahiko didn't want to see them, but he knew that he shouldn't be rude to those trying to be nice to him. As a result, Yahiko had to invite them into his ward. 3

The moment Sheldon stepped through the door, he immediately walked to Ito Yahiko's bed, "Brother Ito, I have heard of your great name. It is an honor to finally be able to meet you today!" he exclaimed politely. 4

Ito Yahiko saw Sheldon's face, and an instant pang of fear gripped his heart. Sheldon looked so harmless as if he could never hurt a fly. 2

The incident where Schulz family destroyed the Matsumoto's left a powerful impression on Yahiko. To think that the man standing in front of him could look so polite and gentle, but in fact, he was a demon who would eat its victim whole. 2

Ito Yahiko knew very well that the madman behind the smile was not someone he should be offending. Otherwise, his future would be filled with trouble. 5

He returned the smile with a polite greeting. "Oh! Mr. Schulz! I did not expect you to visit me in person. This is really flattering. Please, have a seat!"

Sheldon took a seat on the chair by the hospital bed and said with a smile. "I'm really sorry to have to meet you this way, but I've been swamped recently. I wanted my children to visit you first before meeting you in person when I actually took some time off. I did not expect so many accidents to occur. I really hope you'd be able to forgive me, Mr. Yahiko."
