The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 6171

After thinking it over, Harrison felt that Keith's suggestion was worth a shot.

Keith comforted him, "Relax. As long as you can get rid of the bodies cleanly, you are basically safe. When the truth comes out, from how the Qing Eliminating Society would see it, this case is more about me than you."

"How so?" Harrison asked curiously.

Keith explained, "Think about it. Firstly, I am the organization's enemy. Secondly, Zekeiah is supposedly my son-in-law. Thirdly, the aviation company is my family's asset. If the Qing Eliminating Society finds out that Zekeiah died in the fire, who do you think they would suspect more? You or me?"

Keith's explanation made Harrison heave a sigh of relief.

He covered the microphone and whispered under his breath, "He's right! This matter has more to do with him. I'll just clean the scene and hide all the people involved, and no one will know I was behind this!"

Upon thinking of this, he cleared his throat and lamented, "But this has nothing to do with you at all. How can I let you take the risk? It's not fair."

Harrison feigned a diplomatic and friendly demeanor because he knew that even though they could deceive the Qing Eliminating Society, Keith was fully aware of the inside story. If Keith decided to betray him and reveal the secret one day, the organization might come after him for retribution.

Hence, he had to probe Keith's intentions to see if he was sincere in doing him this favor.

Keith knew exactly what was in Harrison's mind, so he reassured the latter nonchalantly, "The organization and I have long been mortal enemies, sworn to destroy each other. Taking on this bit of risk for you? To be honest, it's like having too many lice to care about. They already want to kill my entire family—what more can they do if they think I killed Zekeiah? They can't kill my family twice, can they?"

Having been a cunning man all his life, Harrison had always been profit-driven. If he could get 10 thousand dollars for a random man to die, he would at least make a wish to reduce the world's population by 99.99%.

On the other hand, Keith sent a message to Charlie, telling him that Harrison had taken the bait.

Charlie had Keith scare Harrison primarily to ensure that his plan of killing four birds with one stone could be executed flawlessly.

The reason it was called killing four birds with one stone was that once it was accomplished, firstly, it would torment Harrison, making him restless. Secondly, it would make Harrison believe that Raymond was already dead, causing him to give up searching for Raymond's whereabouts. Thirdly, it would lure Harrison into helping cover up the evidence, making it harder for the Qing Eliminating Society to trace any leads. As for the final goal, it was to drag the Rothschild family into the mess.

By the time Hank rushed to the hangar, the Rothschild family had already gotten into the matter too deep. They would have no way out if they willingly got involved in covering up the evidence. From that point on, this leverage alone would be enough for Charlie to control and manipulate Harrison.

In this way, Charlie simultaneously had dirt on both Harrison and Julien. No matter which of them tried to betray him, he had plenty of ways to deal with them.
