The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2989

As soon as Zacheus heard these words, he immediately felt extremely embarrassed over the other end of the line, and he had goosebumps all over his body.

Immediately after that, Zacheus hurriedly denied," Young Master Wade, you have misunderstood us. The relationship between your aunt and I is really just that of a relationship between an old classmate and friend. There is truly absolutely no inappropriate relationship between the both of us..." 5

Carmen had not divorced her original spouse yet. So, Zacheus naturally did not dare to expose the true nature of his relationship with Carmen. Otherwise, if word about this matter were to get out to the public, both he and Carmen would not only be publicly disgraced, but the Wade family would definitely force Carmen to cut off all ties with him in order to maintain their own image and reputation.

Even if Carmen truly loved him and insisted on getting married to him, the Wade family would never b e able to agree to it because they would never be willing to be so embarrassed and humiliated.

In that case, Zacheus and Carmen would never be able to ever get together and spend the rest of their lives

together in an open and upright manner.

If they insisted on getting their way, he was afraid that Carmen would provoke and incur Lord Wade’s anger. In that case, perhaps she might not even be able to get any inheritance from Lord Wade at all.

Therefore, Zacheus knew very well that he would have to keep this secret. At the very least, he would have to wait until Lord Wade had passed away and Carmen had officially divorced her original spouse before they could finally announce their relationship to the public.

When Charlie saw Zacheus denying this fact in such a hurry, he could already confirm Zacheus's relationship with Carmen. Charlie had already long developed the ability to analyze things logically. If something seemed abnormal, there must certainly be some established conditions hidden within. For instance, for someone such as Carmen, when Charlie had detained her in Aurous Hill back then, she had always been very unwilling to comply. She would be shouting and clamoring all day and night in the rental house, and as a result, Albert had had to pay all the neighbors who were living around her to move out temporarily. 4

With her kind of personality, where she would always defy but was never willing to comply with others, how could she possibly be willing to lower herself and intercede on behalf of a mere old classmate’s son?

She did not even go out of her way to intercede for herself in the first place.

Therefore, Carmen’s behavior was very abnormal on the surface, and it seemed to be extremely inconsistent with Carmen's character.
