The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Jasmine agreed immediately, and she said in a soft voice, "Don't worry, Master Wade. | will definitely make all

the arrangements well for everyone."

"Okay." Charlie clasped his hand over his fist once again as he said to the crowd, "Everyone, it will be the Wade

family's ancestor worship ceremony later, so please go to the hotel to rest first. | will go over there a s soon as

possible after the ancestor worship ceremony is over!" Everyone also knew that the Wade family's ancestor

worship ceremony was only held once every twelve years and that it was a very solemn ceremony that was not

open to the public. So, it would not be appropriate for them to stay here and watch.

Therefore, everyone then bid farewell to Charlie and Jeremiah. After that, they left Mount Wintry in the bus

arranged by Jasmine and Nanako as they headed to Shangri-La hotel in Eastcliff.

After the several buses had left, aside from the soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies who were kneeling on the

ground as well as Cadfan and Sheldon, the rest of the people left there were the members of the Wade family as

well as the Wade family's butler, Stephen. Porter was leading the soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies, and nearly

a hundred people were kneeling

and grovelling in a pyramid shape. All of these people had their legs put together, and their arms were also bent

as they knocked their foreheads on the ground.

After all, they were all martial arts practitioners and so, every one of them maintained the sangle and

posture as they kneeled. They looked extremely neat and uniform.

Moreover, all of them were kneeling on the ground in a very pious state.

This was especially so for Porter, who was kneeling at the forefront. Even though his face was hidden within the

bend of his arm, he had a guilty and ashamed expression on his face.

As for Cadfan and Sheldon from the Schulz family, although they did not dare to slack off, their body strength

could not support them at all. It did not take long before their bodies could no longer support their weight, and

they could only let their upper body lie on the ground. Consequently, their kneeling postures were almost similar

to the scene of Simon Robins in the old television series, 'All Men are Brothers’.

As for the members of the Wade family, Clayton, Felix, and the others were all looking anxiously and

apprehensively at Charlie out of fear that he would settle the score with them at this time.

Charlie watched as the bus convoy descended the mountain. After that, he slowly turned around and

stared at the Wade family with a fiery gaze as he said in a cold voice, "Today, | will officially take over all of the

Wade family's big and small affairs in front of the Wade family's ancestors. The first thing that I'm going to do

after taking over is to teach a lesson to all these weak and cowardly people in the Wade family!"

Upon hearing Charlie's words, those people who had a guilty conscience could not help but shudder. When they

saw Charlie's posture, they knew that he was about to start exposing and criticizing them.

At this moment, Lord Wade, who

had just had his position as the head

of the Wade family taken away by

f

Charlie with just one sentence, spoke up righteously as he said, "Charlie! It is indeed necessary for you to rectify

the current situation of the Wade family! You should not be lenient and merciful just because you care about

family affections!"

Charlie nodded and said coldly, "Of course! Sof the descendants of the Wade family do not hesitate to leave

the dignity and interests of the Wade family behind in order to ensure their own safety and live on They do not

even hesitate to give up their ancestral grave and family businesses, and they have even prepared in advance to

wear mourning clothes to show respect and ask for forgiveness from people who are not their relatives at all.

What is the difference between these people and the traitors who surrendered to the enemy when there is a

national crisis?!"

All the members of the Wade family who were carrying mourning clothes were all so nervous that their legs were

already trembling out of fear.

Carmen, who was most fearful of Charlie, instantly knelt to the ground with a thud, and she was crying as she

choked up and said, "Charlie... Aunt is wrong... | let the Wade family's ancestors down... You are the head of the

Wade family now, and | will not have any complaints regardless of how you want to punish me

99

As she wept, she also pulled out the

mourning clothes that she had hidden in her clothes and threw them on the ground directly as she cried with

regrets and remorse,

"Charlie, please givea light net

punishment on the account that | have already realized my own mistakes and that | am the first person to admit

and confess to my mistake. | will definitely not commit this cragain in the future..."

Clayton, Caleb, and the others were instantly dumbfounded when they saw this.

They were initially wondering why Carmen, who had the strongest character, would actually be the first to admit

and confess to her mistake today. So, it turned out that she was simply trying to aim for the jackpot so that she

could get a lighter punishment! Clayton was so angry that he could not help but curse in his heart, "How did

Carmen's brain grow?! Even a fence-sitter would not react as quickly as her!"
