The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Charlie frowned immediately.

He was not a member of the Wilson family. He did not have the so-called family-bond and blood relations with them. Therefore, he could tell at a single glance that Lady Wilson was up to one of her bitter tricks once again. 3

The Wilson family was now in a desperate situation. If they could not revive the Wilson Group, it would unquestionably fall apart, and the old lady would instantly fall from the top to the bottom. 7

Lady Wilson was someone who had worried about her face and reputation all her life, and she would rather die than accept the fact that she would be poor and destitute. Therefore, she had to wrack her brain to

find a way to turn things around for the Wilson family. 2

First, she had tried to bully and trick Claire into joining the Wilson Group again. However, Claire did not give in to her request. 1

After that, she had tried using money to try to get a breakthrough from Elaine. However, Elaine failed to convince Claire into returning to the Wilson Group. 2

Now, she was trying to target Jacob so that she could find a breakthrough as soon as Jacob caved in.

This might very well be her last chance.

Meanwhile, Jacob was already falling for her trap. 3

He could feel the knot in his heart loosening, and the respect that he had already lost for his mother suddenly reappeared in his heart.

Jacob shed tears before he said, "Mom, I do not blame you at all. I know that I am not as capable or as smart a s my elder brother. I know that I was not born to be a great or successful person. I must have disappointed you a lot. I am sorry...” 4

Lady Wilson grabbed Jacob's hand tightly before she choked and said, "Good son. You are my good son. As long as you understand my intentions, it is completely worth it, because even if I die today, I can die in peace!" 5

At this time, Christopher hurried forward as he sobbed and said, "Mom! Don't always speak about dying so easily! Jacob and I have already lost our father. We cannot afford to lose you too, mom!" 4

After wiping the tears off her face, Lady Wilson said, "A s long as the both of you have my best interests in your heart, I will be smiling even if I die tonight!" 1

Then, she continued speaking, "The both of you are brothers, so you should always take care and look out for one another. If both of you are united and of one mind, you will definitely be invincible! As the saying goes, 'When two brothers think alike, it is more than gold can buy'. If both of you can stick together and remain united, I will not need to worry about the

Wilson family anymore! We will undoubtedly be a very

strong and powerful family!"

Christopher nodded in acknowledgment when he heard his mother’s words. "Mom, you are right! I understand now. From now on, I will make sure to work hand in hand with Jacob to make the Wilson family even stronger than it is now!"

Jacob had a very excited expression on his face, and it was clear that he had already fallen for the old lady's tricks.

Charlie could not help but sigh because the old lady was truly amazing. She had all sorts of tricks up her sleeves, and she could actually manipulate and

convince Jacob so easily by just saying a few words! 3

Still, this was what he had already expected!

Jacob was also moved by his mother and his brother's words, and he sobbed as he said, "Don't worry, mom. I will work together hand in hand with my elder brother in the future." 1

Lady Wilson was very excited and happy when she heard his words, and she blurted out, "Good! Good!

Great!"

At this time, Lady Wilson turned around and looked at Harold and Wendy who had their heads lowered and had been keeping silent all this while. "I want both of you to apologize to Claire and Charlie now! Even though both of you are not really Claire’s brother and sister, you are all cousins no matter what it is! Blood runs thicker than water, so how could both of you

mistreat Claire and Charlie all the time?" 3

Having said that, the old lady glared at Wendy before she shouted, "And you, Wendy! How could you try to hit your own cousin at the opening ceremony today?! Who gave you the courage to do so? I want you to apologize to your sister now!" 1

Harold and Wendy lowered their heads and bowed before they said with great piousness, "Claire, we know that what we did before was wrong. Please forgive us! We will never do anything to hurt you again in the future!" 4

Claire was a little caught off guard at this time. This was because this was the first time she had ever seen Harold and Wendy apologizing and admitting their mistakes in such a humble manner. She knew that both of them had to be struggling internally to put their pride aside and apologize to her. 1 Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

However, since both of them had already apologized, Claire also replied kindly, "It’s okay. We can just forget whatever happened in the past..."

Lady Wilson was overjoyed, and she quickly said to Claire, "Claire, your father is still in recovery now, so it is very important for us to take good care of him. Even though the Wilson family villa might be a little old, the environment there is definitely better than the community you are currently living in. Why don’t you and your whole family move back into the Wilson family villa?"
