The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 3639

Charlie had not left his house after rushing back from the Middle East the previous night.

This was because it happened to be Saturday today, and Claire had also not gone to the company. Therefore, the couple had begun reorganizing their small vegetable garden instead. Charlie's mother-in-law, Elaine, also tagged along with them on crutches in order to help a little bit. Still, as it was inconvenient for her leg, she basically could not help much at all. The both of them worked all day until the sky was dark, and the vegetable garden was finally properly cleaned.

Claire then picked some fresh beans and took the initiative to make some pasta for Charlie.

As a southern girl, Claire originally did not know how to make this kind of pasta. However, she had happened to stumble upon other people's tutorial videos on Instagram, and since the beans in their vegetable garden had already ripened, Claire thought of cooking for Charlie.

So, Claire dragged her mother, Elaine, to the kitchen with her to work on preparing the meal together with her while Charlie continued staying in the vegetable garden to clean up and put away the tools that they

had used.

Albert's phone call came in at this time, and as soon as the call was connected, Albert spoke up respectfully, "Master Wade, I heard Liam telling me that you have introduced an agency job to me?" "Yes." Charlie smiled and said, "He already told you about it?"

"Yes..." Albert smiled and said, "Liam said that it's a foreigner who wants to invite him out for dinner, and he asked me to be an intermediary and charge the foreigner five million US dollars for it. I was afraid that Liam might have remembered the figure wrongly and so, I decided to call you and confirm this matter with you first."

Charlie laughed casually and said, "He did not remember it wrongly. When that foreigner comes looking for you, tell him that he will have to give you five million US dollars first if he wants to ask Liam out for dinner."

Albert asked in surprise, "I'm really supposed to ask for five million US dollars?! Won't the other party think that I'm intentionally trying to rip him off?"

Charlie laughed and said, "It's okay. Just tell him that today's offer is five million US dollars and that it will be increased by one million US dollars every day. So, he can consider this himself."

Albert could guess from the tone of Charlie's voice that Charlie was definitely playing a joke on someone again and so, he hurriedly said, "Alright then, Master Wade. I've already noted it down. I will transfer the money to you immediately when the other party pays." Charlie said, "No need. You can just split this money between Liam and yourself. Consider it as pocket money."

Albert hurriedly said, "How could I do that? Master Wade, I owe my life to you and so, I can take money from anyone, but not from you..."

Charlie laughed and said, "You're my subordinate. So, whose money would you take if you're not going to take money from me?"

Albert suddenly did not know how to answer when he heard this sentence.

Charlie then casually said, "The both

of you usually worry quite a lot too. So, this money is a small token of appreciation for you. There is no need for you to be so polite with me. After all, this money is not coming from me but from someone rich."

Albert hastily said gratefully, "I understand. Thank you, Master Wadel"

Charlie hummed slightly and then instructed him," After the other party pays, you can arrange for his accommodation and have him stay at Shangri-La."

Albert asked, "Master Wade, what if he doesn't pay by today?"

Charlie smiled and said, "No. He will definitely pay

today."

Albert then said, "Okay then, Master Wade. I'll make the arrangements, then."

Meanwhile, Smith spent the whole day at the entrance of The Apothecary Pharmaceutical until it was dark, but he still could not manage to get his calls through Liam's phone number.

Out of desperation, he could only

drag his exhausted body as he stopped another taxi again and

asked the other party to take him to The Heaven Springs as mentioned

by the security guard.

Upon arriving at The Heaven Springs, Smith explained his intention and was then invited to the top floor of The Heaven Springs by the waiter who greeted him at the door.

The top floor of The Heaven Springs was just like the private rooms below and was also particularly well decorated.

However, the top floor was Albert's

personal territory. It was his

met

personal tea room which he used mainly to drink tea. It was nearly hundred square meters, and the environment and conditions here were extremely luxurious. A dog farm could never be compared to it.
