The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

When she heard her mother's words, Sophie was in an extremely good mood. She held her mother's arm, and she could not hide her excitement as she said, "Mom, my benefactor called Grandpa in front oftoday. Charlie told Grandpa that he was going to look for him to settle the score with him over the phone, and Grandpa was scared out of his wits..." "Is that so?" Helen could not help but ask, "Was Charlie seriously prepared to go and look for your grandfather to settle the score with him?" "Not exactly." Sophie explained, "My benefactor felt that it would not do him any good if he were to go and settle the score with Grandpa now. On the contrary, he would only be doing my uncles and aunts as well as the Wade family a favor by giving them a huge benefit." 2 "Yes." Helen agreed as she said, "There are so many people in the Schulz family who are looking forward to your grandfather meeting with a mishap as compared to Charlie. If Charlie were to really do something to him, the other members of the Schulz family would be so happy that they would even be waking up from their dreams with a smile on their faces!" Sophie laughed and said, "That is why my benefactor said that he was simply bluffing and scaring Grandpa so that Grandpa would cand askfor help. As soon as he hung up the phone, Grandpa really calledto look for me! My benefactor truly has incredible foresight." Helen nodded before she laughed softly and said, "In truth, it is not that he has incredible foresight, but it is simply because Charlie has already blocked all of your grandfather's ways out, and he left your grandfather with you as his only hope. This is just like a lake that is formed by a landslip. The water will naturally gush and flow wherever there is an opening." After she was done speaking, Helen added, "Charlie is helping you again this time. Your grandfather is so threatened by him that he can only beg for your help to save his life. Moreover, he would not dare to have any bad thoughts or bad intentions against you in the future." 2 "Yes." Sophie smiled as she said, "Moreover, in order to flatter me, he even offered to givethat island in Maldives-the island he was keeping for his retirement!" 4 "Wow!" Helen said in surprise, "That is his treasured possession. Did you really take it from him?" Sophie replied seriously, "He was the one who wanted to give it to me, so of course I accepted it. I've already discussed it with him, and I'll be flying to Maldives tomorrow. Arrington Schulz will meet up withat Maldives to get the transfer of the property rights done locally there." 2 Helen could not help but sigh as she said, "You'll not have much use for the island even if you take it. You might as well leave it for him to use for his retirement. The older a person is, the more importance they attach to their place of retirement. This is not just a simple matter of a one or two-billion-dollar investment anymore. It is his dream, and I believe that he was just being courteous to you. He would not have expected that you would truly want it." 2 Sophie snorted slightly, and she got into a slight fit of rage as she said, "I don't care about that at all. Since he is already giving it to me, I'll take it, then. I do not care whether he was being sincere or not." 2 "You kid..." Helen sighed and said solemnly, "Anyone can make mistakes, so it is good to forgive them whenever possible. Furthermore, he is still your grandfather." 3 Sophie shook her head and said, "I'm not as magnanimous as you are, Mom. The most I can do is choose not to pursue or take any actions against him for what he has done, but I'll never forgive him." Helen shook her head helplessly and said, "Even if you take the island from him, you do not have any practical use for it. And assuming you do decide to go on a vacation there, you'll only end up going there for about a dozen days a year." 3 Sophie said, "I don't even want to go there for a single day. I'll just keep it first. Who knows, there might be a use for it in the future." "Alright, then." Helen smiled as she teased her, "Or maybe you can keep it as your future dowry. You can also use it as a venue for your wedding Isn't it very popular for celebrities and wealthy people to book an island in Maldives to hold a wedding there?"

Sophie's beautiful face flushed red as she said ashamedly, "I don't even know when this will ever happen on this happen! However I want this island no matter what it i s. Even if I'm not going to use it, I'll also be happy to just leave it idle." 2 "Okay, okay." Helen nodded and said, "I won't interfere since you have already made up your mind."

Sophie smiled sweetly as she asked her, "Mom, why don't you go to Maldives withtomorrow, then? If we fly there early in the morning, we will be able to arrive in seven to eight hours. It will probably take only two hours at most to get the formalities done. After that, we can fly back, and we will be able to arrive by night." 1 As she spoke, Sophie said again, "Moreover, we will not need to take civil aviation. We can just arrange for a business jet and sleep all the way."

Helen smiled slightly and said, "I'll not be going. I do not want to see anyone from the Schulz family, not ever Arrington Schulz Why Why don't you ask your elder brother to accompany you on your trip, then?" 2 "My elder brother?" Sophie curled her lips and said, "I don't want to look for him. If you're not willing to go, I'll just go by X
