The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 3938
Charlie looked at the elderly man lying weakly before him. He then introduced himself with a polite smile, "Nice to meet you, Lord Fox. I'm Charlie Wade."
Jordan could feel a bit of strength in his body. He seemed slightly stronger than before, so he tried to get up, though not without some struggle. When he finally managed to stand, he wanted to bow to Charlie. However, Charlie extended his arm and stopped him from
doing so.
"Lord Fox, you're still weak. You don't need to bow to me."
Jordan, however, felt very indebted. "Mr. Wade, I've heard of your greatness. To think I could finally meet you today...
Thank you for saving me! Had it not been for your help, I'd probably be dead already
Charlie waved his hand in dismissal. He glanced at Kathleen next to Jordan and said, "You should thank your granddaughter. If I didn't owe her a favor, I wouldn't have involved myself in this."
Charlie then added, "By the way, you should also thank Old Master Lennard for helping you."
Jordan nodded lightly. He turned to Kathleen with teary eyes.
The two could only look at each other as they began to sob, crying bitter tears.
After that, Jordan turned to Chandler and sighed softly. "Chandler, I'm sorry I've made you worry."
Chandler quickly answered, "Why are you apologizing to me? Besides, I didn't help much. Mr. Wade and Kathleen were the ones who helped."
Jordan nodded weakly and turned to Charlie again. His eyes full of tears, he said in a tone of deep gratitude, "Mr. Wade, I'll remember your kindness. Unfortunately, I'm in deep trouble now, and I may not be able to repay your kindness. I hope you don't mind..." Jordan knew that from this moment onward, he would be left with almost nothing.
He still had some funds in his personal account, but it was nothing as compared to the giant that was the Fox family's wealth. Now, most of the Fox family's wealth had nothing to do with him.
Charlie said faintly, "It's fine. I didn't
save you just for you to repay me. Besides, you haven't fully recovered yet. You' live a little longer, either a year or two, or perhaps one to two months. It's up to you to take care of yourself and slowly recover
Jordan nodded with gratitude. "Thank you, Mr. Wade! Thank you!"
Kathleen echoed respectfully, "Mr. Wade, thank you so much!"
Charlie waved his hand. He then asked, "Lord Fox, I have a question for you. I hope you won't hide the truth from me."
Jordan didn't know what Charlie wanted to ask, but agreed anyway. He said firmly, " Don't worry, Mr. Wade. I'll answer your question truthfully if it's within my knowledge."
Charlie nodded curtly and voiced his question. "Lord Fox, do you know Number 9 9 in the auction? His name is Carlson Hobbs, and he competed for the bidding earlier with you. Do you know his real identity?" "Carlson Hobbs?" Jordan shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "His name isn't Carlson Hobbs. Then again, he rarely uses his real identity outside."
Jordan then explained, "His real identity is Christian Acker, the eldest son of the Acker family."
"Christian Acker?!"
Charlie was stunned to hear that
name. In his memory, he had three
uncles from the Acker family. His eldest unele was Christian Acker, his second uncle was Kaeden Acker, and his youngest uncle was Jaxson
Acker. axson
He also had an aunt named Lulu Acker.
Charlie had only met his three uncles and aunt a handful of times. However, he remembered their names because they left a strong impression on him, for they were all inspired by Oskia's legendary works. His mother's name, Ashley, was inspired by the Records of the Grand Historian.
Meanwhile, his uncles and aunt's name were all inspired by the Classic of Poetry. His eldest uncle's name, Christian, was inspired by a poem's title while his second uncle's name, Kaeden, was inspired by a poem's line in the Classic of Poetry.
His third uncle's name, Jaxson, was inspired by one of the poems. Meanwhile, his youngest aunt's name, Lulu, was inspired by one of the poem's first lines in the Classic of Poetry.
