The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2019

Charlie never expected Elaine to be able to judge Loreen so accurately.

In truth, Charlie had already guessed her true motive when Loreen initially arrived at the Emgrand Group.

It had to be because the Thomas family had heard the news that the Wade family had arranged for a descendant to be in Aurous Hill, and they had even bought the Emgrand Group as a gift for that descendant. Therefore, the Thomas family must have felt that this was the perfect opportunity for them to get ahead of everyone else. This was the reason why they arranged for Loreen to work in the Emgrand Group.

Charlie had initially planned to prevent Loreen from being able to contact him during her time in the Emgrand Group. If that was the case, if she failed to encounter him even after a long time, Charlie believed that she would certainly leave Aurous Hill soon.

However, who would have expected Loreen to fall in love with Charlie instead?

Therefore, from the moment Loreen had confessed her love to Charlie, he already knew that it would be impossible for him to shake this woman off for a very long time.

When Claire heard her mother saying that Loreen

must have other plans for staying in Aurous Hill for such a long time, she could not help but smile as she said, "Mom, what are you thinking of? She is just here because of work. She does not have any other plans or intentions!” 6

Elaine gave an artificial smile as she said, “Let me ask you a question, then. If your family has a hundred billion dollars, would you work for a job that pays you an annual salary of several million dollars a year?" i

Claire thought for a while before she said, "Perhaps she simply wants to be an independent woman, or perhaps she simply wants to work hard to build up her career in her workplace. It might also be purely because of her own feelings.”

"Feelings?!" Elaine waved her hand before she said solemnly, "Oh, my dear daughter! You don't

Claire nodded as she said, "It does seem a little strange. What happened next?"

Elaine replied, "After that, this continued for several years, and dozens of large and small temples had already been built, but the people on the mountain were still extremely poor. It was only when a great detective from Eastcliff came all the way to the mountain to investigate the case that everyone finally realized that the reason why those rich people came t o the mountain to make donations to build a temple was because they wanted to get to an ancient tomb!"

"Ahh?! Tomb robbers?!" Claire replied embarrassedly, " Mom, have you been reading too many novels? Where can you find so many tomb robbers that you see in novels here in real life?!"

Elaine replied seriously, "Do you think that the tomb robbers that you see in novels are really incredible? Let me tell you, there are more tomb robbers in reality compared to what is usually described in novels!" 3

Having said that, Elaine rolled up her sleeves before she gestured excitedly with her hands as she said, " Let me tell you, the tomb was just under the mountain behind my grandmother's house! However, the villagers living on the mountain did not know about it at all. During those few years, all sorts of tomb robbers used the excuse of giving donations to build a temple t o build dozens of tunnels below the temple, and they nearly hollowed out the entire bottom of the mountain!”
