The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family



Travis agreed, "You're right, Master Wade..."

He looked at Charlie and choked a little. He was hesitant, but in the end, he decided to ask. "Master Wade, I beg you to give me one more chance. It's my fault for losing my right to continue bidding in the auction this year, but please don't revoke my right in future auctions!"

Charlie said sternly, "Mr. Lane, I've set up such a big event to attract the best players in the world. I'll have to ensure the game's fairness. If I can't ensure fairness, how can the event continue?"

"But I..." Travis wanted to explain himself, but Charlie interrupted him with a show of hand.

Mr. Lane, we're adults. You've violated the rule, so you have to bear the consequences.

Travis was reluctant, but he knew he had no right to bargain with Charlie.

Not to mention, Charlie's current status and strength would rise greatly after this auction. He would easily earn up to hundreds of billions of US dollars from this auction alone. With how much Charlie's prowess overwhelmed Travis, how could Travic bargain with Charlie?noveldrama

He sighed at the thought, more regret coursing through his veins. "You're right. It's all my fault. I need to bear the consequences of my actions."

Charlie nodded before asking "Did you bring anyone with you today? I didn't see any subordinates with you."

"Yeah..." Travis quickly explained, "I didn't bring anyone with me this time."

Charlie asked again, "Why didn't you bring Harvey along?"

Harvey Carver was Charlie's best friend from the orphanage. Back then, Charlie recommended Harvey to Travis Travis did Charlie a favor and hired Harvey as his driver cum assistant. He paid Harvey an annual salary of two million dollars @year, and this gave Harvey's social standing the opportunity to take a big leap forward.

At Charlie's mention of Harvey, Travis felt even more ashamed. He explained, "Master Wade, I... I wanted to take Harvey along at first, but recently, many in Lancaster tried to leam my secret. They wanted to know how I aged backward and became so youthful again, didn't want them to know the secret, so I was cautious and didn't bring Harvey here..."

Travis sighed heavily and said self-deprecatingly, "I'm too short-sighted..."

Charlie comforted him with a smile, "Mr. Lane, you can easily live for another fifty years. You should get over the

Rejuvenating Pill. Try to earn more money and do more charity in the meantime. Even if you can't participate in the auction for the pill from now on, you still have other ways to get your hands on the pill."

At this, Travis asked emotionally, "Master Wade, are you serious?"

Travis was thrilled. "Master Wade, I'm willing to be part of it. Please give me this chance! I'll move all my businesses to Aurous Hill and create more jobs for the city! I'll also contribute to the local tax and the city's future developments!"

Charlie nodded, satisfied. "I'm glad to see your enthusiasm. When the time comes, the Emgrand Group will be in charge of these projects. Do pay more attention to that rather than dwelling in your loss."

Travis's eyes grew red as he choked emotionally, “Thank you, Master Wade! Thank you!"
