The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5618

Very soon, it was already the third day. Mr. Chardon arrived early at Antique Street, eagerly awaiting good news from Zachary.

At this moment, Mr. Chardon felt nervous and uneasy. According to the British Lord's requirements, he had to make a move against the Ackers before midnight, which would be before 11:00 p.m. tonight.

Mr. Chardon also planned to go to Willow Manor precisely at 7:00 p.m. tonight. He would quietly find a safe place to hide in Willow Manor first and then wait for the perfect moment to strike. Once the timing was right, he would immediately attack and annihilate the Ackers.

Therefore, his biggest wish today was to get more magic instruments from Zachary before 7:00 p.m. Despite knowing that Zachary might only set up his stall in the afternoon or even later, Mr. Chardon arrived and waited anxiously at Antique Street early in the morning.

However, Zachary was late as usual and only arrived later in the afternoon.

When Mr. Chardon saw Zachary, he could not contain his composure and quickly approached him, asking, “Zachary, how is it? Did you communicate with your superior? Can he deliver the goods today?”

Zachary shook his head and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, boss. He said that the goods cannot be delivered today.”

When Zachary saw Mr. Chardon’s disappointed expression, he hurriedly added, “But he mentioned that he went to another place last night to get a new batch of goods. He has quite a bit of goods on hand now, so he plans to wait a couple of days and deliver the goods to me in a larger batch. If you're interested, you can wait for two more days. By then, he might be able to provide you with five or eight items at once.”

Mr. Chardon asked in surprise, “He has another batch of goods?! Where did he get them? What kind of goods are they?”

Mr. Chardon shook his head helplessly and said, “I really can't wait any longer this time. You can either give him a call and tell him that if he still wants to deliver goods to me, have them sent over now. There's still time, and as for the money, you don't need to worry. As long as the goods are of good quality, even if I have to pay double, it's not a problem.”

Zachary shrugged, saying, “I already told him that on the phone. I even said that if he finds it inconvenient, I can go and pick the goods up by car, but he said the earliest would be the day after tomorrow.”

Zachary then added, “I'll be honest with you. The reason he has been able to do this business for so long without getting caught is because he prioritizes safety over money. If anyone could change their original plans just for a higher price, they would have been caught by the police a long time ago.”

When Mr. Chardon heard this, the very essence of his heart, which had longed for the enchanting allure of the magic instruments, appeared to wither away. He nodded slightly in disappointment and sighed as he said, “Alas, it appears that the prospect of our collaboration remains elusive this time around.”
