No one would have expected that Lord Wade, who was already elderly, would suddenly say something as shocking as a jolt of lightning!
As soon as Lord Wade said these words, everyone instantly knew that Clayton must have gone to complain to Lord Wade just now. He must have said some bad things to sow discord between Lord Wade and Charlie, and Clayton would never have expected that Lord Wade would have slapped him so righteously instead.
What was even more shocking was that Lord Wade would suddenly announce that he was officially passing on the position as the head of the Wade family to Charlie!
At this instant, Charlie's subordinates and friends were all incomparably excited, and they were even on the verge of cheering out loud.
On the other hand, the vast majority of the members o f the Wade family had long faces, and they were scowling miserably. The expressions on their faces were even uglier as compared to when Hunter had brought his men to the Wade family's old mansion with those coffins.
When Lord Wade was the head of the Wade family, all of them could easily gain quite a sum of money and power from the Wade family's businesses. In addition,
they would also get huge annual dividends and bonuses. Therefore, everyone had been living very comfortably all this time.
However, everyone knew that this would basically be over as soon as Charlie became the head of the family.
Based on Charlie’s tough character, how could he possibly allow them to make gains and profits? When the time came, Charlie would definitely pay extremely tight focus on the family’s finances without giving them any space to maneuver.
Clayton felt even more distressed and indignant in his heart. He thought to himself, 'What the hell is this?! I came to kindly remind my father to guard his power, but as a result, he actually slapped me and handed the position as the head of the Wade family directly over t o Charlie! Is there really something wrong with him?!'
Jeremiah also looked at Clayton at this time, and what he was thinking in his heart was, 'Charlie has robbed me of my position as the head of the Wade family without even saying anything. I did not even have the opportunity to take the initiative to willingly hand the position as the head of the Wade family over to Charlie. Just as I was worrying about how I can find a n opportunity to try to strengthen and build up my relationship with Charlie, you came knocking on my door directly. Isn't everything going exactly the way I wanted, then?!’
'So what if you’re my biological son? Do you think that I don’t know what you have in mind? I already know all about how you asked Felix to go out and buy mourning clothes late last night! You b*stard! I know that you were simply waiting for Ten Thousand Armies to slaughter and deal with me before you kneel and beg for mercy, regarding the enemy as your benefactor, right? From now on, Charlie will be in charge of the Wade family, and you will have to pay the price for your actions!'
