The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Charlie was then afraid that his wife, Claire, would be worried about Elaine, so he picked up his cell phone and called her.

As soon as the call was connected, Claire asked, "Honey, where are you now?"

Charlie said, "I flew out of town to help find some connections for Mom. I'm preparing to go back to New York now. Did Mom contact you over the past two days?"

"Yes, she did." Claire sighed and said, "Honey, I was just about to call you to tell you about this matter. Mom just called me ten minutes ago, and do you know what she said to me over the phone?"

Charlie already had a general idea of what Elaine had probably said, but he still pretended to be curious and asked, "What did Mom say?"

Claire said helplessly over the phone, "Mom actually told me over the phone that she is doing very well in the prison now. She wanted to call you, but she could not reach you, so she called me to let you know that she is not in a hurry to come out of prison now. So, she asked you not to take her out of prison too quickly. What's more, she said that it would be fine as long as she can return to Oskia at the same time as us. Otherwise, she can go back to Oskia by herself after she gets out of prison in a few days..."

After saying that, Claire asked nervously, "Honey, don't you think that my mother is in a daze? Why did she suddenly become addicted to prison upon entering that place? She even took the initiative to say that she doesn't want to come out too soon..."

Charlie laughed twice as he thought to himself, 'My dear silly wife, if you knew that your mother is now the Ferocious Ghost at Bedford Hillside Correctional Facility, you would probably be able to figure out why she does not want to come out...' Still, Charlie did not say much, and he simply comforted her, "Honey, I guess Mom doesn't want us to worry, so that's why she's saying that."

Claire said seriously, "My mother is not the kind of person who thinks about others. There are only two possibilities as to why she doesn't want to come out. The first possibility is because she is being coerced by others, and the other is that she is living comfortably in the prison."

Charlie sighed as he thought to himself, 'Sure enough, she knows her mother well.'

After that, he said with some relief, "Don't worry. The prison is not a place out of the law. No one should be coercing her. As for the second possibility that you've mentioned, I think that might be the case. It may be because she has made some new friends in the prison or perhaps she wants to experience life in prison. I also asked a client in New York to help me find some connections so that they can take care of her in the prison."

Claire said helplessly, "To be honest, based on her tone over the phone, it doesn't sound like she was being coerced by someone. She sounded strangely happy, but it was as if she didn't want me to hear it. So, I think she is restraining herself on purpose. I really don't understand..."

Charlie said with a smile, "My dear wife, if you don't understand, you shouldn't think too much about it, then. Since Mom can tell you that, I'm sure she hasn't encountered any problems and should be doing well." noveldrama

“Hmm...” Claire sighed and said helplessly, "I don't know what to do with her, but

you'll have to work hard to find a way to rescue her."

Charlie smiled and said, "It's no hard work. Nothing else matters as long as Mom is fine."

As soon as he had said that, Charlie saw that the seat belt warning light in the office had turned on, and he said to Claire, "Honey, the plane is about to take off, and I have to

return to New York overnight ne

not continue talking to you anymore. Make sure to take care of yourself every day and attend your classes well. Don't worry about everything else."

"Okay..." Claire instructed, "Honey, you must also rest well and not get too tired."

After giving instructions to each other for a while, the two of them hung up the phone with unfinished thoughts.

Immediately afterward, the thrust of the plane was fully opened. After taxiing for a certain distance on the runway, it took off into the air and disappeared into the night.

The flight, which would originally take at least five or six hours, only took two hours for the Concorde to land smoothly at New York's JFK Airport.

The convoy from Shangri-La was already waiting at the airport. After Charlie and the others had completed the customs clearance through the VIP passage, they took the concierge team from Shangri-La to the hotel.

Just as he was about to arrive at the hotel, Kathleen called and said to Charlie, "Mr. Wade, all the medicinal herbs on your list are ready. Shall I send them to you at the hotel now?"

Charlie did not expect that Kathleen would be so efficient. After all, it had only been more than two hours, and it was already late at night.

Still, Charlie did not ask much. Kathleen was now the head of the Fox family, and

she was also a prominent figure in New York. So, she naturally had deep

connections and was naturally deeply rooted there.

So, Charlie said, "Let's meet at the hotel, then!"
