The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 3994

When Charlie received this text message, he did not think twice to call again, and just a s expected, the cell phone was once again turned off.

This time, Charlie did not continue to explore the identity of the other party. Instead, he simply turned back to look at the warehouse. When he saw Claudia, who was wearing an apron, busy at work inside, he silently put his cell phone into his pocket. In his opinion, this girl named Claudia seemed to be getting more and more interesting.

So, Charlie deliberately pretended as though he was not affected by the warning text message that he had received just now, and he smiled as he said to Stephanie, "Stephanie, are we going to eat out tonight, or will we be eating at home?"

Stephanie laughed and said, "Anything will do. It depends on what you want to eat, Brother Charlie. If you want to eat at home, we can wait for Mrs. Lewis to come back, and we can go home and cook together. If you want to eat outside, we can decide whether to go for Western or Oskian food, then."

Charlie nodded and said, "Let's eat at home. I haven't tasted Mrs. Lewis' cooking in a long time."

Stephanie hurriedly said, "In that case, I will first go and buy some groceries in a while."

After saying that, Stephanie spoke to Claudia who was in the warehouse," Claudia, I will go to the market later. You should take care of the cash register."

Claudia nodded and said politely, "Okay, Stephanie."

Stephanie smiled and asked her, "Do you have anything that you feel like eating tonight? Tell me.'

Claudia hurriedly said, "Stephanie, I will not be eating at home tonight. Mr. Wade came from so far to see you and Mrs.

Lewis. So, you must have a lot to talk about. It just so happens that I have already made an appointment with a friend tonight."

Stephanie said seriously, "Don't you think that I know of your situation by now?

Those so-called friends that you used to hang out with have either fallen out with you or are all hiding from you. Which one of them can be relied on?"

As Stephanie spoke, she did not want to be outdone, and she continued, "You're not allowed to go anywhere at night. The four of us will have dinner together!"

Claudia hesitated for a moment, and she could only nod gently. She then glanced at Charlie. When she saw that Charlie had his hands in his pockets as he wandered around the store, she knitted her brows slightly as she felt her anxiousness grow.

At this time, a middle-aged man who looked about thirty years old walked in holding a cigarette.

This person had an Oskian appearance, and he was about 1.7 meters tall. He had the haircut of Ekin Cheng from 'Young and Dangerous' from twenty years ago, and his hair was also dyed brown.

As soon as he entered, the first person he saw was Charlie, who was doing nothing as he stood by the shelf. He looked around to search for Stephanie and Claudia before asking curiously, "Huh? Where is the boss? Where is the shopkeeper?" When Stephanie heard this voice, the expression on her face instantly changed. She exchanged looks with Claudia and then reached out to block her before she turned around and walked back to the cashier.

When Stephanie saw this man, she smiled politely and said, "Chief Light, why are you so free to come over?"

The man called Chief Light laughed and looked at Stephanie as he raised his brows and asked, "Stephanie, how has business been these past two days?"

"Not bad." Stephanie smiled politely and said, "Our situation is similar every day, and there are no changes."

Chief Light nodded, placed his arms on the counter, and moved closer to Stephanie as he smiled and said, "Stephanie, did you give any thought to what told you last time? As you can see, I am a powerful man now, and my cousin sister has recognized you as her godsister. So, wouldn't it simply be perfect if the both of us

got together and became a couple?"

Stephanie smiled and said, "Chief Light, you can really joke. You are a big name in Oskiatown, and you have such a great reputation even in the whole of Vancouver. So, how could I match you with my ordinary beauty? The most suitable girl for you would be an Italian girl."

"The Italian guys have also been urging me to look for an Italian girl. They even said that they would be able to find me an authentic Italian girl from Sicily, but I still want to find an authentic Oskian girl instead. After all, we are all of Oskian descent, right?"

As he spoke, he smoked a cigarette,

revealing a mouthful of smoky

yellow teeth as he said, "Stephanie I've looked around the whole of Oskiatown, and I only have the most feelings for you. I think that our future in Oskiatown would be a good story if the both of us could end up together!"

Stephanie shook her head and laughed as she said, "Chief Light, to be honest with you, I really don't suit you at all. You guys fight all the time, and I cannot really match this kind of personality. I simply want to find someone whom I can live with in peace and quiet."

When Chief Light saw that

Stephanie was so determined, he threw the cigarette out the door, looked at Stephanie, and asked very seriously, Stephanie, are you really not going to give me a chance? You can just try to get along with me first, and if you feel that we really cannot get along, we can break up then. I am also a powerful man now, and I have quite a number of subordinates working for me. If you follow by my side, I will not let you suffer."
