The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2490

He did not know whether Charlie believed his words o r if Charlie already knew from a long time ago that he was the one who had secretly tried to take Sophie’s life. 3

Therefore, he decided to do everything he possibly could to gain Charlie's trust and make sure that the latter would believe him. So, he blurted out, "To be honest, my father has already felt very dissatisfied with my elder brother's entire family ever since a long time ago. He drove my elder brother to Australia not too long ago, and he also deprived him of his right to become the heir that would eventually inherit the Schulz family in the future."

"In fact, my father not only intended to kill Helen and Sophie this time. Before I came to Aurous Hill, he also asked me to place Jaime under house arrest..."

"However, Jaime reacted even faster, and he escaped before we could capture him. But even if Jaime has already escaped, many of the Schulz family's subordinates have already been dispatched to look for his whereabouts. As soon as they find him, he will either be driven out of the family and sent to

Australia, just like my elder brother, or he would be dealt with directly like his younger sister, Sophie."

After listening to his words, Charlie stopped the video recording before he frowned and said, "Steven Schulz, you keep saying that your father was the one who wanted to kill Sophie. However, based on the information that I have gathered from other sources, it seems as though that is not the case. So, why are you trying so hard to pin the blame on your father?”

Steven was shocked, and he blurted out, "No, I am not! I am not trying to pin the blame on my father! I am simply telling you the truth!"

"The truth?" Charlie sneered before he said, "Alright, then. In that case, I will bring someone here to confront you directly!"

After he was done speaking, Charlie immediately told Albert, “Go and bring Matteo here!" 4

As soon as Steven heard Matteo's name, he was scared out of his wits!

He never expected that Matteo would still be alive!

What was even more unexpected was the fact that Matteo was actually in Charlie's hands!

'It's over... it’s all over. Matteo is Lord Schulz's personal bodyguard. The reason why he came to Aurous Hill to kill Helen was also because he was acting under my father's direct order. Therefore, he would certainly know that my father did not want to kill Sophie at all. Wouldn't my lie be exposed as soon as he is brought over here?’

Steven was originally feeling as though he was freezing to death after getting drenched with a bucket of cold water. However, at this time, he was actually breaking out in sweat because he was feeling extremely nervous.
