The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 158
"You, shut up!" Graham said as he glared at Adam. After that, he turned towards Jack before he said in a respectful manner, "Thank you for your advice. I will definitely pay more attention to these things in
future." 1
Jack nodded in a meaningful manner before he got up and left.
As soon as Jack left the mansion, Adam immediately said, "Second Uncle, Mr. Yaleman is a very well-known master from Mystery Court. How can a liar like Charlie even be compared to him? This time, Mr. Yaleman is even willing to help to solve our family problems without even taking a single penny from us!"
"Mr. Yaleman did not even take a single penny from us but Charlie has already cheated our family of so much money! He even spent more than a hundred million dollars just to buy a broken clam at the auction today! This is a scam! This is definitely a scam! Second Uncle, why are you so willing to give him so much money? Why do you trust him so much? If word about this matter gets out, wouldn't the people in Aurous Hill treat the Quinton family as fools?" 4
Graham was silent at this time but he had a doubtful expression on his face. 3
He knew that Jack was indeed very reputable in the country. Moreover, he could not forget the vision that
Jack had shown him earlier. It was so vivid and real and he had no choice but to believe what he saw. 4
Most importantly, Jack did not take a single penny from them today. On the other hand, Charlie had spent so much of the Quinton family's money at the auction today... 4
The more he thought about the situation, the more he felt that there was something wrong with Charlie! 2
At this time, the Quinton family's butler suddenly knocked on the door before he stepped in after getting permission from Graham. 1
"Mr. Quinton, there is an express delivery for you."
After he was done speaking, he handed a paper box over to Graham. 1
Graham frowned as he unpacked the paper box. After that, he found a talisman inside the paper box. 1
He took a closer look at the talisman at this time and he found out that it was just a thin piece of shell about the size of a matchbox. Moreover, there it was attached to a piece of cheap red string and it looked just like any other shell sold at random tourist attractions. 2
Graham looked at the sender's information and he realized that it was from Charlie.
There were also a few words written on a piece of paper in the box: "Stun talisman. Hang it up in the main hall to break and get rid of the evil spirit." s
Adam cursed out loud as soon as he saw the talisman. "Damn it, Second Uncle! Charlie is taking you for a fool! He's sent you a broken piece of clam shell and this could be a clam shell bought from any random place! Do you really think that this would help us to get rid of any evil spirit?" 5
"Moreover, do you really think that this broken shell should be worth one hundred million dollars? He does not care about you and he's not giving you any face at all! The fact that he sent you this talisman by courier proves that he does not have the guts to face you! If Charlie is not a liar, why else is he doing this?" i
Adam continued shouting, "Second Uncle, why don't we get someone to beat Charlie up so that we can get our money back? Otherwise, if Charlie runs away, we will suffer a huge loss!" 5 "Shut up and let me think this through," Graham said as he rubbed his brows. He stared at the symbol on the shell and he was not certain whether it had any magical or spiritual powers at all. 2 After hesitating for a moment, Graham summoned all the members of the Quinton family before he said," This is a matter of life and death for the Quinton family. Therefore, it is of great importance to me. I will visit Charlie personally tomorrow to ask him what is going on exactly. For the time being, I want everyone to carry the peace talisman that Mr. Valeman has given to us at all times! Do not take it off!" 1 "Yes!" "Second Uncle, I want to come with you!" Adam said a s he gritted his teeth. "That Charlie had done a lot of harm to me and our family. I have to go over there and break his legs myself!" 3 "You? Are you sure you can do it?"
Graham frowned before he replied, "If you really want to come along, make sure that you bring a few more bodyguards with you tomorrow. I want you to inquire about Charlie's whereabouts tomorrow so we can be prepared to confront him." 3
After he was done speaking, Graham paused for a moment before he reminded Adam again, "Remember, I'm not asking you to cause any trouble for Charlie. I do not want you to act recklessly and get beaten up again!" 2
Adam was overjoyed at this time and he replied immediately, "I understand." 3
Graham continued speaking in a serious voice, "Even though the Quinton family is not the most prestigious family in Aurous Hill, I won't tolerate anyone who tries to deceive me. If anyone tries to deceive me, I'll also retaliate in the most appropriate manner!
Therefore, I must get to the bottom of this matter and replace out if Charlie is really a liar. If he has been lying and treating me as a fool, I'll not let him off so easily!"
