The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 3956
Kathleen said, "I don't know the exact situation either, but Charlie has never revealed his true identity to his wife and his wife's family. They have no clue, either. They've always thought of him as their live-in son-in-law, who's originally an orphan." Jordan pondered over this new tidbit for a moment. "It's surprising that such a big secret could be concealed between a husband and wife. I'd wager the foundation of their relationship isn't strong enough, and they might get a divorce sooner or later." Kathleen was embarrassed by her grandfather's unruly words. "I don't know about that..."
Jordan sighed and said to her, "Kathleen. Now that the Fox family has undergone such a huge change, your eldest uncle's position will remain unshakable if there's no powerful external force to intervene. When I die, he won't be merciful to you then. Young Master Wade is your only chance to turn things around..."
As Jordan said this, he had one more sentence that he didn't say out loud.
Charlie wasn't just Kathleen's only chance to turn things around, but also his only chance to turn things around.
Charlie's Rejuvenating Pill was undoubtedly effective, and he'd be able to live longer if he could just get half of it.
If Kathleen could form a good relationship with Charlie, the grandfather and granddaughter duo would have the opportunity to turn things around.
Jordan didn't really have a strong sense of utilitarianism, but he was unwilling to resign to fate especially when he was thrown into such a desperate situation. As long as he was still breathing, he would find ways to turn things around and make a big comeback. Kathleen was naturally aware of this.
When a wise person fell in distress, the first thing that would come to his mind wouldn't be self-pity or self-abandonment, but instead to find a way to break out of the crisis.
Kathleen knew very well that her grandfather had been in a dilemma ever since he was usurped by her eldest uncle.
If she didn't follow her grandfather
to the Middle East, her eldest uncle would definitely question her about his whereabouts. Her conscience wouldn't allow her to betray he grandfather for mere petty benefits.
QUMS
Her accompanying her grandfather to the Middle East was equivalent to putting herself in a situation where there was no turning back.
Since she had already left for the Middle East, her eldest uncle would've dubbed her an accomplice to her grandfather and an enemy to him. Right now, her eldest uncle couldn't find her. She could still live for the time being, but what should she do if her grandfather died in a year or two? Would she continue hiding, or should she take her grandfather's corpse back to the United States?
The former option was miserable, so she was naturally unwilling to choose.
However, the latter option came with a high risk. It was very likely that her eldest uncle would control her and make her his puppet the second she arrived in the United States.
Kathleen could see that either way, her future was very bleak.
The only possible way to break out of her predicament was through Charlie.
Unfortunately, Charlie had no interest or intention to help.
As Kathleen thought of this, she smiled wryly and said, "Grandpa, there's no point in talking about this. It doesn'matter if Young Master Wade's married. Even if he's still single, it'd be very difficult for me to cross paths with him or interact with him in the Middle East."
Jordan was unable to hide his disappointment. Frustrated, he shouted, Argh! I don't even know if I'll be able to live until the day Heave the Middle East, even if I've decided to go there..." en FindNovel
