The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Christian even found that the old man's palm had been poked, and several points on his palm were already deeply sunken in. Even his skin was broken due to the constant poking, and the ballpoint pen's ink had penetrated into his skin, forming a mark similar to that of an old tattoo.

Although Christian could not see what was written on the palm of his father's hand, he could also guess that his father must have written something there himself to constantly remind himself of his own words.

Just as Christian was feeling distressed, he could not help but quietly lean toward his father's side. When Lord Acker poked his pam with the ballpoint pen again and peeked at the words on his palm, Christian could clearly see the three sentences written on his palm.

"It has been twenty years since Ashley and Curtis have passed away."

"I owe a debt of gratitude to Charlie's fiancee for her life-saving grace."

"Charlie has not yet returned."

Christian felt a lump in his throat when he saw those three sentences, and he could not help but feel tears welling up in his eyes.

He could tell that his father must have been in great pain when he wrote those three sentences.

He could also tell that the reason why his father had written those three sentences was to always remind himself not to forget

As his father's son, Christian felt even

more heartbroken and distressed when he saw how hard his father was trying to remember that his own daughter and son-in-law had already been dead for twenty years, and his grandson had yet to be found. However, Christian also knew very well in his heart that he could not persuade his father in regards to this kind of thing. So, he could only let his father digest it himself.

Very soon, Kaeden called all the bodyguards who were living in New York to the vicinity of the concert venue.

After everyone had arrived, Kaeden said to his father and mother, "Dad, Mom, everyone is here. We can go now."

Lord Acker nodded and said very politely to Kathleen, "Miss Fox, we will be leaving first. Thank you for your help! You can leave your contact information with Christian and Kaeden later, and if you need our help in the future, the Acker family will definitely spare no effort to provide our assistance to you!"

Kathleen hurriedly said, "Lord Acker, you're being too polite. I did this entirely to repay my gratitude, so you don't have to worry about it."

After saying that, she said again, "My benefactor asked me to send you to a safe area and so, I'd better go with you all first!"

Lord Acker nodded slightly, and he clasped one of his hands over the other as he said, "We will have to trouble you then, Miss Fox!"

Kathleen remembered something and asked, "By the way, I wonder how you all plan to dispose of the corpse of that

woman that Master Yant carried out just now? If it is inconvenient for the time being, I can arrange for a safe place to store it properly first."

Lord Acker then said, "I want to ask the forensic pathologist to do an autopsy to see if there are any clues. However I really cannot spare the energy to do so at the moment, so I will have to ask for your help to settle it temporarily first, Miss Fox. I Will contact you to retrieve it after the Acker family recovers." noveldrama

"No problem!" Kathleen readily agreed and said, "I will send the body to a safe place later, then."

Lord Acker nodded and said, "Let's get out here first, then."

At this time, Lady Acker, who was

aside, suddenly remembered something and asked with concern, "Miss Fox, I wonder if Miss Chan who received us earlier, is here? She

was not hurt in any way, right? Kathleen hurriedly said, "Don't worry. Miss Chan is fine. She's just right outside."

"Okay." Lady Acker sighed with relief and said, "Let's go out, then. I will also go and greet Miss Chan along the way!"
