The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 1974
Jonathan hurriedly replied, "Madam Elaine, that yacht has a maximum range of two thousand nautical miles, which is nearly four thousand kilometers. So, it will certainly be enough for you to travel from Aurous Hill to the estuary before heading all the way to Tokyo.
However, since this will involve entry and exit from the country, you will have to report this matter to the immigration and customs in advance." 4
Elaine immediately said to Charlie excitedly, "My good son-in-law, why don't we take some time to sail our yacht all the way to Japan for a vacation on our own? What do you think?" 1 Charlie replied vaguely, "Well... we will talk about this when we have time."
Elaine hurriedly said, "Isn't it easy to make time? Your dad and I do not go to work, and you do not report for work too. Claire is the only person who is running her own company. Since she is the boss of the company, wouldn't she be able to take some days off from work to go for a holiday whenever she wants to?"
Claire hurriedly replied, "Mom, what are you talking about? Entrepreneurship requires focus to be effective. How can I just leave my company behind just to go traveling?"
Elaine replied, "It's okay then. You can just stay back here and continue to work while Charlie brings us to
Tokyo for a vacation. We will not be home, and you will be able to focus more on your company then." 5
Claire was immediately rendered speechless.
Although she did not want her family to leave her behind and travel by themselves, Elaine was very skillful with her words.
She began by asking Claire to go on the trip with them. However, Claire refused on the grounds that she would have to work hard because she was running a business. So, Elaine told Claire to stay behind on her own so that she could focus on running her company. Claire could not refute her words at all. Otherwise, she would simply be slapping herself in the face. 4
So, Claire had no choice but to say helplessly, "Ahh! You can do as you please."
At this time, Charlie smiled slightly before he said, "We will not talk about this for the time being. It will be the New Year soon, so we will naturally be spending this time at home together. As for whether we will be going traveling, we will talk about it after the New Year." 1
Elaine hurriedly nodded. She smiled and said, "Okay, my good son-in-law. I will listen to you!"
Charlie hummed slightly before he looked at everyone and said in a serious manner, "I am really thankful to all of you for coming here today and bringing me so many gifts. It must have cost all of you a lot of money."
Everyone hurriedly replied, "No! No! This is what we
should do anyway!"
Charlie looked at the people around him before he smiled and said, "As the saying goes, courtesy demands reciprocity. I will certainly prepare a gift in return for everyone after the New Year. At that time, I will have to trouble Mr. Quinton to help me to prepare some stuff." 1
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, all of the people who came here to pay their New Year's greetings to Charlie immediately had an excited and ecstatic look on their faces.
They knew that Charlie was going to give them a pill in return! s
Otherwise, Charlie would never have said that he wanted Graham to help him to prepare some stuff! 2
What was Graham's job scope anyway? He specialized in medicinal materials and herbs! 1
The first batch of medicine that Charlie refined was done using the materials that Graham had given to him! 2
Since Charlie was asking Graham to prepare some materials for him, if it was not a pill, what else could it be?
The reason why Charlie did not say it clearly was simply because he did not want to mention the medicine directly in front of his wife and parents-in-law. 2
He did not want his family to know about the magical pill or the Rejuvenating Pill that he refined.
However, these people who were present here today had all been blessed by him. So, they naturally understood what he was saying as soon as he mentioned those words.
