The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 1390

"However, I was afraid that there would be someone in the Wade family who would try to harm you. After all, Lord Wade is already old. If he were to bring you back t o the Wade family and expose you to the other members of the Wade family, he might not be able to protect you comprehensively. Thus, I decided on my own to settle you down in Aurous Hill before I proceeded to completely conceal and hide your identity and information from everyone else. I also did not let Yule from the Golding family know about your whereabouts when he came looking for you back then." 7

Charlie asked again, "Why did you come and find me t o ask me to go back to the Wade family some time ago, then?" i

Stephen replied earnestly, "Young Master, to tell you the truth, Lord Wade's health has been getting worse and worse over the past two years. However, he is very dissatisfied with the current situation and status quo o f the current heirs of the Wade family. Therefore, he is very unwilling to hand over the Wade family to them. When I told Lord Wade that you were still alive, he was naturally very excited. So, he wanted to train you to become an heir. He gave you the Emgrand Group and the ten billion dollars just for you to practice. In the future, when you are willing to go back to the Wade family, there is a high chance that Lord Wade will

hand over the responsibility of taking care of the trillions of dollars of wealth and assets owned by the Wade family over to you." 11

Charlie replied lightly, "I understand now, Mr. Thompson. I have caused you so much trouble because of this matter for so many years." 1

Stephen hurriedly said, "Young Master, I would not dare to say that! Your father has been very kind and gracious toward me, and I owe him a great debt of gratitude. Don't mention this trivial matter. I will not hesitate at all even if I have to offer or sacrifice my life for you!" 1

Charlie was deeply moved, and he said, "I am not interested in the Wade family’s assets. However, when the time is right, I will definitely investigate and look into the hidden circumstances of my parents' murder i n the past. When the time comes, I will settle the score with those who are involved in this matter, and I will make sure that they pay for their crimes with their lives." 5

Stephen was very excited, and he trembled as he said, "Young Master, I will be able to die contentedly now after hearing these words from you! You are now known as the Supreme One in Newton and the True Dragon on earth! I believe that with your strength and capability, you will unmistakably be able to exact revenge on behalf of the second master and second mistress!"

At this point, Stephen had already started tearing.

In the past, before Stephen became the steward of the Wade family, he was an assistant who was always following Charlie's father around. A few of his scoundrel friends had set their sights on him because he was earning a good and lucrative income. They had deceived him and tricked him into going to Macau, and he had lost all of his money at the gambling table.

Stephen had degenerated and turned into a gambling addict. He began borrowing money from loan sharks everywhere just so he could go to the casinos in Macau to make a comeback and win back all of his money. As a result, the more he gambled, the deeper h e fell into his addiction.

In the end, Stephen not only lost everything he had, but he was also chased by the loan sharks. Out of desperation, Stephen even bet both of his hands in the casino. Unexpectedly, Stephen had lost the bet for both of his hands in the casino as well. 1

According to the rules in the casinos in Macau, no matter what you bet on, if you lost, you would have to accept your loss and fulfill the bet no matter what it was. This was also the reason why there were many gambling addicts with no hands or legs who were begging on the corner of the street by the casino to make a living. 5
