The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 3962

Jeremiah's expression contorted into an annoyed sneer. "Previously, your maternal grandfather's family was rather dissatisfied with the Wade family. When your mother married here, her natal family didn't even bother to come. I've never met with any of your uncles before. But I did meet your second uncle, Kaeden Acker, in a summit in Sweden some years ago. I saw him from afar because he was on stage, and I happened to be off stage. I thought of getting close to him and paying him a visit, but he wasn't willing to see me." Charlie laughed. "It seems the Acker family has no respect for the Wade family at all."

Jeremiah laughed to himself. "He didn't look up to me, true. At that time, he said that among everyone surnamed Wade, he'd only acknowledge you."

Jeremiah continued, "To think your eldest uncle came to participate in the auction. He even wanted to take the Rejuvenating Pill away. I wonder who he is planning to buy it for? Perhaps your maternal grandfather or grandmother?"

"I'm not sure either," Charlie said, "I haven't had any contact with him yet. I don't know who he wanted to buy the Rejuvenating Pill for."

Jeremiah said, "Charlie, if I'm honest, I don't think it's a bad thing for you to reconnect with your maternal grandfather's family."

He went on, "If you do want to contact them, it'd be best for you to start with your maternal grandfather or your second uncle. From what I know, the only person who has the right to speak in the Acker family in this generation is your second uncle, Kaeden Acker. After your mother left the Acker family, your second uncle took over many of the Acker family's businesses. He's doing very well. Your maternal grandfather has long appointed your second uncle to be the successor of the Acker family."

Charlie shook his head. "I do not have any intentions to meet with them yet. Let's just go with the flow."

Jeremiah said, "The Acker family is, after all, one of the top three families in the world. If you can get their support, you'll definitely receive many benefits for your future development."

But Charlie was indifferent. "Forget that. I don't plan to acknowledge them, and even if I do so one day, I won't allow them to be a part of my future developments. In the face of such interests, kinship isn't very reliable. It's better to rely on myself." Charlie then recalled something and added, "By the way, Grandpa. My eldest uncle is still in Shangri-La. I think if he still wants to get the Rejuvenating Pill, he'll definitely find a way to contact you. If he finds you, do not disclose my situation to him." Jeremiah nodded firmly. "What if he asks me to help him to buy the Rejuvenating Pill? How should I reply to him?"

Charlie replied, "That is simple. You can ask him who he;s buying the Rejuvenating Pill for first. At the same time, you can promise him that you'll help him ask about it. After that, you can just give him the cold treatment. If he doesn't pester you about it, you don't need to reply to him. But if he does, just say that there's no progress for the time being and leave him hanging."

"Okay."

At this time, Christian was sitting on the sofa in his hotel room while holding Charlie's handmade amulet. He was depressed.

He deeply regretted missing the Rejuvenating Pill away even after coming all the way here.

Before he participated in this

auction, he registered with the identity of 'Carlson Hobbs'. The organizer of the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill had bound his face firmly to the identity of 'Carlson Hobbs', and he had also been deprived of the right to continue participating in the auction next year.

Even if he were to return with a new identity, he wouldn't be able to pass the organizer's facial recognition scrutiny.

In other words, he wouldn't be qualified to participate in this auction again.

If he was dying and needed the Rejuvenating Pill years later, there would still be no way for him to attend the auction in person anymore. This meant that even if he had

any more money, there would

not be any opportunity for him to get

the Rejuvenating Pill anymore.

As he thought of this, he wanted to look for Jasmine from Moore Group and plead with her in person. He wanted to ask her to convey a message to the Rejuvenating Pill's owner, in hopes for the man to be more forgiving.

But when thought about how the man was completely unmoved even after Christian had offered three hundred and seventy billion US dollars in cash on the spot, he gave up the idea. He would only humiliate himself further. Another thought crossed his mind. He decided to look for a way through Jeremiah for the time being.

After all, the Wade family was one of

the organizers of the Rejuvenating Pill auction. Moreover, Lord Wade was also invited to attend the

served half of the Rejuvenet

auction as a VIP. He was even

Pill in

public. From this alone, his familiarity with the owner of the Rejuvenating Pill was made quite

obvious.

Furthermore, the Acker family and the Wade family were once relatives. Perhaps Jeremiah would be quite sentimental over their past bond and put in a good word to the Rejuvenating Pill's owner for Christian. With this thought in mind, Christian immediately ordered his attendant, "Ask for Jeremiah Wade's contact information immediately!"
