The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Charlie nodded and said, "That's good. I was not in Aurous Hill during this period of time, but I probably will not be going anywhere soon. Please feel free to contact me if you need help with anything in Aurous Hill."

"Okay!" Helen was not overly polite and agreed with a smile. She then invited Charlie into the house.

Charlie could not help but feel nostalgic as he entered the house.

When his parents had rented this mansion back then, they had also restored it carefully, and it looked the same as it was now. Although it still looked very rustic, it gave people a refreshing feeling.

After twenty years of idleness, this mansion was once dilapidated, but after Helen's careful restoration, it seemed as if everything had been restored to the state it was in twenty years ago.

For a certain moment, Charlie even felt as if he had gone back to the time when he was just seven or eight years old when his parents had just settled down in Aurous Hill. The family of three had lived an ordinary life here, but they were full of happiness.

Helen saw that Charlie looked a little lost in his thoughts as he looked around, so she intentionally did not say anything so that she could let Charlie take a good look around and reminisce on the past.

After a long time, Charlie recovered his thoughts before he almost burst into tears. He held back his tears and said to Helen with a smile, "Aunt Helen, you must have gone through a lot of trouble to clean up and restore this mansion, right?"

Helen nodded, then smiled and said, "It took me a lot of effort, but I also enjoyed it."

After saying that, Helen pointed at a rustic set of old-fashioned leather sofas and said to Charlie, "Sit down and rest for a while!"

"Okay!" Charlie nodded. After sitting down, he sighed and said, "Aunt Helen, this sofa is basically the same as the sofa I had as a child. Can this style of sofa still be bought now?"

Helen smiled and said, "When we were young, leather sofas basically looked like this unless those sofas were imported from Europe and the United States. Those sofas would look more extravagant, but this kind of sofa is no longer available now, so I got someone to custom-make it."

Charlie nodded slightly and then sighed as he thought to himself, 'Aunt Helen is really attentive. She also understands Dad very well, and her taste is very similar to my father's taste in many ways..."

After sighing, Charlie deliberately changed the subject. He looked at Jaime, who was aside, and asked, "Jaime, you must have had a hard time over the past six months, right?"

Jaime subconsciously stood up and said respectfully, "Mr. Wade, it wasn't hard at all... I would like to thank you for pushing me for this. I might still be the ignorant brat that I was if it wasn't for you..."

Charlie asked him, "Don't you hate me at all for making you kneel and grovel all the way on pilgrimage?"

Jaime said truthfully, "Mr. Wade, I hated you to the core every moment of the first month. I even fantasized about how I would make you pay back ten times or even a hundred times for your actions if I were to be stronger than you one day. But after a month, I gradually understood your good intentions..."

Charlie asked curiously, "My good intentions? I'm a man with evil intentions, and I often come up with strange and weird ways to punish others in the eyes of many people. All of those people can't wait to kill me, so why are you the only one to say that I have good intentions?"

Jaime said sincerely, "In fact, there are many ways that you could have used to punish me, and no one would have been able to do anything to you even if you wanted to take my life. What's more, you were the one who saved my life in Japan, but you're still giving me another way out so that I can have the opportunity to turn over a new leaf..."

As he spoke, Jaime pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment before he said, “Besides, I know that you have always sent people to protect me in secret. I have encountered several life-threatening situations over the past six months, but I was always ultimately able to save myself from those dangers in the end. You must have been the one helping me behind the scenes."

Charlie did not say anything, but Sophie, who was aside, asked in surprise,

"Brother, what life-threatening situations have you encountered? Why haven't I heard you mentioning anything about it?"noveldrama
