The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 944

Charlie could not help feeling a little excited at the thought of meeting Mrs. Lewis again soon.

He had never seen Mrs. Lewis again ever since he had gotten scolded for trying to borrow money from Lady Wilson at her birthday banquet. This was because Stephen had sent Mrs. Lewis directly to Eastcliff after that. 7

Charlie had a very deep relationship with Mrs. Lewis, and he regarded her as his own mother.

When Mrs. Lewis fell ill, Charlie tried desperately to raise money. He even secretly tried to sell his blood to raise some money. He also took a lot of money from Claire in private in an effort to keep Mrs. Lewis alive. 9

If he did not do everything that he could to help Mrs. Lewis raise some money for her treatment, Mrs. Lewis would never have been able to wait for Stephen to arrive. She would have already been dead a long time ago. 2

However, Charlie felt that this was something that he should be doing. Even by doing this, he could probably only repay about one ten thousandths of Mrs. Lewis's kindness to him.

His father had always taught him countless times before his death that a man should always show his gratitude as long as he was alive. As the saying goes, a

drop of water shall be returned with a burst of spring. Even if he only received a little help from others, he should return the favor with all that he could when the other party was in need. Charlie had always been living according to this principle. 7

Therefore, he did not bother to wait for the noodles that he was cooking for Elaine in the pot. He took off his apron before he stepped out of the kitchen. After that, he told Claire who was accompanying Elaine, "M y dear wife, I have to go to the orphanage to deal with something urgent now!"

Elaine immediately asked, "Are you done cooking my noodles for me? I have not even eaten a single spoon o f rice yet and you are already preparing to go out now?” 3

Charlie glanced at her with disgust before he replied impatiently, "The noodles are already boiling in the pot. You can take them out of the pot and eat it when i t is done! Mrs. Lewis has already fully recovered from her illness. I am going to the orphanage to give her a welcome dinner now." 9

When Elaine heard this, she scolded him immediately, "Charlie, what kind of attitude is that? You actually dare to talk to me like this because of an old lady at the orphanage? Do you know your own place as a live-i n son-in-law? Why don't you think of who is actually providing you for what you eat, drink, wear, or live?” 9
