The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 613

While Christopher indulged in his imagination, thinking about how to make Elaine his long-term cash withdrawal machine, Lady Wilson walked in from the outside with a gloomy expression. 3

Christopher jumped from his seat and greeted, "Mom, you're home! How’s everything?”

Lady Wilson huffed indignantly and said, "The bank will soon start the bankruptcy liquidation process, they said that it will start next Monday. Once the process starts, they will seize this house. Where is the eight million that you promised? Why haven't you transferred it to me yet?!" i

Christopher chuckled pretentiously. "Mom, stop rushing me. Didn't I tell you that the money is stuck in the fixed deposit account? My fund manager is trying t o withdraw it as soon as possible. I promised that I'll give you the money, just be patient."

If possible, he didn’t want to give his mother even a penny. However, something changed his mind. 1

He depended on Lady Wilson to inherit the anonymous assets that Lady Wilson had hidden away, including the millions in life insurance after her death, several million jewelry in her personal possession, and his father's antiques worth more than twenty million. 6

He understood his mother very well. Those jewelry and antiques were her last straw, she would never use them to save the company. Moreover, no one knew where these things were kept except for her. She must have shifted these things to a safe place a long time ago so that when the bank and court order came to seize the company and property, they would never find these things. 3

If he had a fallout with his mother now, his mother might not leave the inheritance to him. So, no matter what, he had to give the eight million dollars up!

When Linda sold Charlie’s Thompson First villa, he could give Lady Wilson the eight million!

Lady Wilson couldn't read his mind, but hearing his excuses, she huffed in agitation, "Chris, I raised you. I know something's brewing in your mind just by looking at your expression. Don't you dare drag this matter and keep the money for yourself! If you don’t give me the money, I'll move to Jacob's house tomorrow. When I die, I'll leave my life insurance, jewelry, and your father’s antiques to Jacob! Don't say I didn't warn you!" 6

Christopher panicked. Just as he thought, his mother threatened him with the inheritance. He quickly walked to his mother and comforted, "Mom, what are you talking about? Since I've already promised you, I'll definitely give you the money. I'll give it as soon as today and tomorrow at the latest, okay?" 1
