The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 2788

When Jaime heard these words, he was instantly dumbfounded.

He did not come back to his senses for more than ten seconds.

When Jefferson, who was on the other end of the line, saw that Jaime was not responding, he could not help but ask, "Jaime, are you listening to me?

It was only then that Jaime responded and said, "Yes, I'm listening to you. Grandpa, you said that my mom and Sophie are back? Is that true?!" 2

"Yes!" Jefferson replied solemnly, "Would I joke about such things?! Hurry up and come back quickly!"

Jaime hurriedly said, "Okay, Grandpa. I'll come back now!"

After he was done speaking, Jaime immediately hung up the phone and said to his assistant, "You stay behind and continue communicating with the people over here. There is something that I have to do first." As soon as these words left his mouth, Jaime ran out in a hurry.

After getting into the car, Jaime wanted to start the car quickly, but at this time, he suddenly hesitated for a moment.

He was completely frozen for dozens of seconds, and he felt extremely confused and conflicted at this moment.

He did not know whether his mother and younger sister's sudden safe return at this time was actually a good or bad thing.

To be honest, Jaime had always had a very good relationship with his mother and younger sister. Therefore, he felt very excited and overjoyed deep down in his heart. 1

However, there was another uncontrollable thought in his mind.

That thought was telling him: 'Jaime Schulz! The fact that your mother and younger sister are back, is surely not a good thing! Think about your grandfather, an old b*stard, addicted to money and power. The reason why he is showing his weakness and goodwill to you and your father is simply because he has gained extreme notoriety, and he is feeling guilty toward you.'

'If your mother and younger sister suddenly come back safe and sound, the world's contempt for your grandfather will naturally be alleviated! After all, there is a whole world of difference between a person being dead and being alive!'

'As soon as the both of them return safe and sound, the people's anger and despise your grandfather will naturally dissipate greatly, and they will completely forget about it over time!'

'In that case, your grandfather will be able to return to the public eye again, and he will be able to restore his identity as the head of the Schulz family in a just and honorable manner. At that time, he would certainly abandon you and your father again!'

'Moreover, at that time, he will no longer feel guilty toward you or your father anymore! You and your father would have lost all advantages, then!'

'Most importantly, since your mother and younger sister would have managed to escape a misfortune under your grandfather's hands, they would certainly never forgive your grandfather in this lifetime. They might even openly declare war against your grandfather or have a complete fallout with him.'

'What are you going to do at that time? Your grandfather will no longer be feeling guilty toward you, and your mother and younger sister would see your grandfather as their enemy. They might even confront or go against him in various ways, maybe even choosing to openly attack him. When the time comes, you'll definitely be implicated!' 4

'No one would ever pass on the position as the head of the family to his enemy's son or his enemy's brother...'

As he thought about this, Jaime felt extremely distraught and troubled.

It was also at this moment that the balance in his heart changed a little. 2

So, Jaime subconsciously took out his cell phone and called Cadfan, who was anxiously searching for Sheldon's whereabouts back in Sudbury. 4

Cadfan was extremely worried at this moment. 2

It had been more than twelve hours since his eldest son, Sheldon, had gone missing since morning.

In these twelve hours, he had not been able to find any valuable clues at all.

Sheldon seemed to have completely evaporated from this world, just like his younger brother, Steven. 9
