The point where Lord Schulz was superior to Sheldon was that he had a rough framework in his own brain through vague traces and clues. At the same time, he counted out the existence of Charlie, a mysterious person, in this framework.
In truth, Lord Schulz had always been a very shrewd old fox, planning many things almost flawlessly. There were only a few times he made small errors which had led to a large discrepancy, all because he could not anticipate a variable such as Charlie.
This time, he presumed that Sophie was not dead and that someone must have saved Sophie. Thus, he decided to make great efforts to save Sheldon and his family.
The first breakthrough point, naturally, was Sheldon, the head of the family.
This phone call just now had not only appeased Sheldon, but he had also expressed his apology to Jaime in front of Sheldon.
If this father and son believed his words, he had at least redeemed half of this family of four, then.
Although Sheldon could not forgive Lord Schulz so easily, at this moment, his heart was indeed slightly
eased because of the initiative Lord Schulz had taken t o admit his mistake.
After all, Lord Schulz had never bowed his head and admitted his mistakes to anyone in his life. Thus, for him to suddenly apologize personally was a surprise t o him. 3
Moreover, Lord Schulz could not calculate the existence of Charlie, a mysterious factor. Hence he was not sure of the real motive for the old man to go soft.
In addition, he himself had been sent to Australia. Even if the old man had done something wrong to him, there was no need to bow to him. The old man could even completely put him under house arrest forever. This was also the old man's usual style of action.
Yet, the old man had not chosen this way. Instead, he had taken the initiative to bow his head and admit his mistakes, pleading for forgiveness, which made Sheldon feel that the old man might have really come t o his senses and had the idea of reforming and making amends for himself. 3
The old man was willing to make up for himself and had agreed to let Sheldon return to his country, which was the same as being ready to restore his identity as the heir.
No one would have trouble with the trillion-dollar family fortune. In Sheldon's heart, in addition to being surprised, there was an uncontrollable excitement.
