The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2987

Carmen naturally could not turn Zacheus's request down after hearing his plea. So, she could only speak u p, "Wait a moment. I'll give Charlie a call and ask him about it."

Zacheus sighed slightly before he said dejectedly," Alright, then. Thank you for the trouble, Carmen."

"No problem." Carmen comforted him, "Zacheus, you don't have to be so sad. In truth, I feel that Tom's character is indeed a little too immature. So, it might not necessarily be a bad thing for him to put himself through the mill for three years. If you were to continue to allow him to continue hanging around in the entertainment industry like this, I'm afraid that it'd be even more difficult for him to achieve success i n the future."

Zacheus said seriously, "Sigh. You're right! I already asked him not to engage in this kind of hypocritical thing a long time ago, but that kid simply refused to listen to my advice. If he did not enter the entertainment industry, he naturally would not have gotten into such trouble today..."

Carmen then said. "Three years is not short, but it is actually not too long either. I think that Charlie is simply trying to punish and discipline him. So, he will

naturally ask people to protect Tom too. Therefore, you don’t have to worry too much about him."

As she spoke, Carmen then said, "Besides, to be honest, the end result is not that bad now that this matter has developed this way. As long as you can cover this matter up without revealing it to the public, the Zielinski family will not suffer any damage to your reputation. However, you'll have to communicate with Tom's agency. After all, he is a public figure now. If he were to disappear from the public eye so suddenly, that will certainly lead to a lot of speculation. It'd be better for you to issue a more reasonable statement and inform the public about this matter in advance."

Zacheus thought for a moment before he said helplessly, "Then, I’ll just announce to the public that Tom is preparing to quit the entertainment industry to continue his studies. This kid is ignorant and incompetent all day long. So, I really did have plans to send him abroad to study properly for a few years. I wanted to send him to Europe to study for a master's degree, and it would only take him three years, but he was always very reluctant to go. Look at the situation now. What is the difference if he were to board the ship for three years, or if he had to attend three years o f maritime technical school, then?"

Carmen comforted him, "Alright, then. You don't have t o be so angry. I think that your earlier approach is quite good. You can just ask Tom's agency to issue an announcement stating that Tom has finally realized the importance of his studies, and he will be officially announcing his withdrawal from the entertainment industry. You’ll also be able to leave a good impression on the public that Tom is placing utmost importance in his academics."

As she spoke, Carmen continued, "If Tom could let go o f all the bad traits that he has as a rich heir over these three years, it would also end up being a blessing in disguise."
