The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Christian and Kaeden then took the lead and led the Acker family out of the private room.

Charlie heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the sounds of their fading footsteps, but at the same time, he also felt a little disappointed.

He felt that it might not have been a bad thing to reconcile with his grandparents' family.

It would also be a psychological comfort for the two elderly people.

However, when Charlie thought of how no clues had been found regarding his parents' death and how the enemy might be stronger than he imagined, he felt a little grateful that he had been persistent.noveldrama

After all, he could only develop in a low-key manner if he was in the dark.

Otherwise, if he were to draw out the behemoth hidden in the darkest place prematurely, it would likely bring a big disaster to the people around him.

As the four elevator doors closed, only Charlie and Claire, who was sleeping on his shoulder, remained in the VIP area.

So, Charlie then took back the trace of Reiki that had been left in her brain and then closed his eyes as he pretended to be asleep.

It was only then that Claire woke up faintly.

Her first thought as soon as she woke up was to ponder, 1... Where am I?'

Immediately afterward, when she saw Quinn singing and dancing on the stage through the floor-to-ceiling window, she was stunned, almost as if she had gotten struck by lightning as she exclaimed, "Ahh? The concert has already started?! I... How did I fall asleep at such an important time?!"

As she spoke, she could not help but look at Charlie, who was beside her, and she found that Charlie was also sleeping with his head tilted. She quickly shook his shoulder and blurted out, "Honey... Honey, wake up!"

Charlie pretended to sleepily open his eyes and then asked Claire, who was beside him, with a confused expression, "What's wrong, Honey? I was dreaming..."

Claire pointed at the concert stage and said in a huff, "Look! The concert has already started, so why are we both asleep?!"

Charlie pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, my God... it has really started... I don't know why I fell asleep. Could it be because we were too tired after having all that fun during the day?"

Claire said aggrievedly, "I don't know, but I don't seem to feel so tired. I was also quite engaged in watching the opening video when it was played. I do not know why I suddenly have no impression..."

Charlie casually said, "Oh? Isn't this situation very normal? Sometimes, when your sleepiness comes up, it only takes a blink of an eye for you to fall asleep. You can be doing one thing in the first second, and in the next second, you can go into dreamland directly."

Having said that, Charlie then said

solemnly, "Take those drivers who are tired and fatigued and get into accidents as an example. It's because they thought that they could hold up and would not fall asleep and so, they continued driving. As a result, they would fall asleep at a certain moment without knowing anything at all. When they wake up again, the car has already turned over into a ditch."

Claire responded with flushed red eyes," But I really wasn't sleepy at all just now..."

After she had finished speaking, she stopped bothering about the issue and became depressed as she pouted and said," Oh, I don't want to worry about how I fell asleep just now anymore mainly because do not know how long the concert has already been going on. It's so beautiful and I missed all the opening performances!

This is really depressing..."

Charlie laughed and said, "Sigh, it's okay. Even if we did not watch the opening performance today, we can wait until the next concert to make up for it! The theme of this tour is the same, and the opening

song will not be different in any way. You can take a good rest before the next concert so that you will not fall asleep again."

performance and order of lon

Having said that, Charlie then added, "If you don't think that you can make up for it by watching one more concert, let's watch two more concerts, then! That should be fine, right?"

Although Claire still felt very regretful in her heart, since Charlie had already said so, she could only nod and say helplessly," We can just watch the concert two more times, then. I will definitely watch the next concert without missing even a second!"

When Charlie saw that Claire had accepted reality, he was also slightly relieved. He then looked at the time and laughed as he said, "Okay, only about thirty to forty

percent of the concert is over. Let's enjoy it from now on!"

"Mhm!" Claire nodded heavily as she rested her chin in her hands and started watching Quinn's performance intently.

A moment later, dozens of cars drove out one after the other at the exit of the VIP area of the venue.
