The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2640

The phone call was immediately connected after ringing twice.

Jeremiah asked happily, "Charlie, why did you suddenly think of calling me today?”

Charlie went straight to the topic as he said, "I need to ask you for a favor."

Jeremiah replied without any hesitation, "Oh! Why do you need to be so polite with your own grandfather? You can just tell me if there is anything you need. As long as it is within my abilities, I will certainly go all out to help you!"

Charlie replied, "I have to go to Lebanon immediately t o deal with an urgent matter. I heard that you own a Concorde. So, I would like to borrow it."

"Borrow the Concorde?" Jeremiah hesitated for a moment. After a short while, he smiled and said," Charlie, if you want to borrow a private jet, I own a very, very luxurious Boeing business jet. I spent more than one hundred million US dollars just on the internal modification of the jet alone. It would not be a n exaggeration to say that it is a palace in the sky. Should I lend that business jet to you instead?"

Charlie replied firmly, "No. I only want to borrow the

Concorde."

Jeremiah sighed as he said, "Sigh. That airplane is actually a little too old. It was manufactured in 1985. T o be honest, it is just a few years older than you. You should also know that the older the airplane, the more unsafe it will be."

Charlie did not expect Jeremiah to try to beat around the bush with him at this time. So, he could not help but blurt out, "If you do not want to lend me the Concorde, the least you could do is to lend me a plane that will allow me to arrive in Lebanon from Aurous Hill in less than four and a half hours."

"This..." Jeremiah replied embarrassedly, "The requirement of four and a half hours is a little too difficult to meet. Can you relax the requirements a little?"

Charlie questioned him in return, "Can I borrow it or not? Why don't you just answer me truthfully in a straightforward manner? If you are not willing to lend it to me, I will not continue placing you in a tough spot either."

As he spoke, Charlie said coldly, "However, I might have to reconsider the ancestor worship ceremony, then. After all, since a small matter such as borrowing an aircraft from you could actually be so troublesome and complicated, I would not want to bother the Wade family in the future anymore." 6
