The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 281

Don Albert didn't dare to speak loudly as the significant figures of the city gathered together. Even though they were in his restaurant, he walked behind everyone and wagged his tail at Charlie like a pug, hoping that he would bat an eye at him. 4

Looking at the extravagant spread and the decoration, Charlie smiled at Don Albert and said, "Good job, Albert. Thank you for the arrangement." 2

Albert smiled like a child receiving candy and said," It's my pleasure to serve you. Please have a seat."

Charlie nodded and sat in the main seat of the table.

Albert bowed graciously at Charlie and said, "Please just call for me if you need any assistance, I'll be waiting by the door!" 5

Then, he gingerly exited the suite and stood by the door like a waiter.

Albert Rhodes was the king of the underworld in Aurous Hill, but right now, he was nothing but a good-for-nothing thug. He was not yet qualified to sit at the table with Charlie and his distinguished guests-it was already lucky enough for him to be able to talk to Charlie. 3

As soon as Charlie sat down at the main seat, Jasmine followed closely and sat to the right of him. They were seated so close to each other with only the small gap between them that Charlie could even smell the faint perfume from Jasmine's body. 4

According to the sitting etiquette, the most distinguished person sat at the head seat, while the people next in rank would be seated on both sides of the head seat.

Among them, the Moore family was the most prominent. Hence, Jasmine, as the representative of the Moore family, naturally sat next to Charlie. 3

Therefore, the other empty seat next to Charlie had become the hottest chair that everyone was vying for.

Graham nudged Aurora lightly and said to Charlie, "Master Wade, my daughter has admired you for a long time ever since she had the honor to witness your superb power and regards you as her idol. Could you let her sit beside you just so she can get to know you better?" 3

Jasmine arched her eyebrows and glanced rather ambiguously at Graham.

Zeke, on the other hand, cursed Graham for being a shameless sly fox by sending his daughter to get closer to Master Wade. He was very frustrated mainly because he had no daughters. If he had a girl, there's no way Graham could make a move on Master Wade so easily. 7

Aurora's face was as red as a cherry tomato. She was feeling very shy and embarrassed.

She admitted that she liked Master Wade and her father had told her to grab her chance whenever she could, but it was quite embarrassing to do so in front of so many people. 1 Regardless of the embarrassment, Aurora was a straightforward person, she cleared her throat and said, "Master Wade, please allow me to take the seat next to you." 3

Charlie was taken aback and said flatly, "You're welcome to. Please have a seat." 1

Aurora grinned gleefully as she thanked him and hopped to the empty seat next to Charlie. 1

Anthony was envious at the scene. In fact, he had wanted his granddaughter to sit next to Master Wade, but his hesitation encouraged Aurora to cut the queue and grab the empty seat. 4 It was quite impossible to make Xyla Master Wade's woman, but it would be an absolute honor and blessing if Master Wade would keep Xyla as his student and apprentice.
