The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Chapter 3776



If she failed to win the pill at the auction, she could at least try negotiating with Charlie through their established friendship.

Besides, she wasn't worried about the possibility of revealing her true identity at the auction. Her identity as Kylie Jane was real. Moreover, the Jane family in France was a distant relative of the Fox family. She could accompany the head of the Fox family to the auction as a distant relative, which made sense.

She felt relieved at that thought. Deep in her heart, she began to fantasize.

She imagined her grandfather missing out on the Rejuvenating Pill at the auction. Just as he was grief-stricken, she managed to purchase a Rejuvenating Pill from Charlie and became a savior in her grandfather's eyes.

Her wild imagination left her with shame. However, this feeling quickly went away. She knew very well she could only turn the table around beautifully by relying on such an opportunity.

It would be hard to fight for power in the Fox family. In fact, it was as difficult as fighting for the throne in a royal family. Her competitors would achieve their goal by any means.

About five minutes later, someone came knocking on

her door.

It was Julian. His voice came from behind the door as he spoke. "Miss, the car is ready."

"Okay, I'll come right now."

Kathleen grabbed a limited-edition Hennas

Himalayan Kirkin in a black-and-white gradient that complemented her maxi dress.

She stood in front of the vanity mirror near the door and carefully observed how she looked in the mirror. She shook her head helplessly and thought

to herself,' I shouldn't have worn this. Wearing this for dinner at a farmhouse restaurant makes me feel like a clown...'

She sighed softly and opened the door.

Julian stood outside, waiting for her. When he saw her, he greeted her respectfully. "Young Lady, we can leave immediately."

"Okay." Kathleen nodded and entered the hotel's lobby with Julian.

Her Cadillac, a bullet-proof sedan of the same model as the President of the United States, was parked at the lobby's door. A man handed the car keys to Julian, who then opened the door for Kathleen.

Julian waited until Kathleen got into the car before getting into the driver's seat. He locked the car and asked, "Young Lady, where are we going?" Kathleen replied, "Try and search for Lerner Village on the navigator. If I'm not wrong, it's located somewhere

along 104 National Road."

Julian frowned. "Lerner village? It sounds like somewhere in the suburbs. Young Lady, why are you going to such a place?"

Kathleen explained, "Charlie invited me for a meal there."

Julian entered Lerner Village on the

navigator and searched for the

location. When he found the destination, he asked in surprise, "The place is almost thirty kilometers away from the city center! It's at such a remote place. Why did Charlie choose this place? Isn't there something fishy?" Content

Kathleen fell into a short silence. She then muttered in a low voice, "That can't be, right? I've only met Charlie in person once. Mr. Larson, did I expose myself in any way?"Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Julian gave it a thought and said, "I didn't go into the villa with you yesterday. It's hard to say if you gave away any clues to him and accidentally exposed yourself."

Kathleen carefully considered her options for a moment. "I don't think I gave away anything at all. I've always been cautious."

Something suddenly came to Julian's mind. He said grimly, "Young Lady, I'm a clue myself."

That made Kathleen curious. "Mr. Larson, what do you mean by that?"

Julian replied with a grimace, "If

Charlie is stronger than me, he may be able to tell that I'm a six-star martial artist. If he knew that, he may doubt your identity. A six-star martial artist won't serve as

bodyguard to someone of Kylie Jane's status."

Kathleen grew a little anxious. She asked nervously," Mr. Larson, what if Charlie is stronger than you?"

Julian said solemnly, "I've never heard of anyone who became a six-star martial artist in their twenties, but that doesn't mean they don't exist."
