The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2022

As he thought about this, he immediately told Charlie, "Mr. Wade, I am so sorry, but I got delayed on the road for a few days. That is the reason why I was late...” 1

Claire, Jacob, and Elaine were even more surprised at this time.

Why was Dylan apologizing to Charlie? Did they know each other?

When he saw the surprised look on his family members' faces, Charlie smiled slightly as he hurriedly said, "Mr. Koch, you are being too polite. Since I said that I will invite you to dinner, no matter whether you are early or late, I will still honor my promise to you." s

Dylan was taken aback for a moment because he could not understand why Charlie was suddenly being so polite to him.

After that, he suddenly realized that he might have said the wrong things. 3

Charlie probably did not want his family to find out about this conflict with him.

Therefore, Dylan hurriedly acted accordingly to Charlie's words before he continued saying, "If that is the case, I would like to thank Mr. Wade in advance. W e can arrange for another time to meet up after the New Year, then."

Charlie nodded before he smiled and said to Claire, his father-in-law, and mother-in-law, "When I went to Eastcliff to help someone take a look at their Feng Shui, it just so happened that Claire asked me to attend Lady Thomas’s birthday banquet on her behalf. I met Mr. Koch at the birthday banquet. When I heard that he was going to come to Aurous Hill soon, I told him that I would invite him out for dinner when he arrives in Aurous Hill."

Dylan also hurriedly nodded as he said, "That's right. I really did not expect that my journey here would get delayed for a few days, and my arrival eventually got dragged to the New Year Eve."

Elaine asked in surprise, "Mr. Koch, how did you come to Aurous Hill from Eastcliff? How could you possibly get delayed for a few days on the road? Wouldn’t it only take you about ten hours to drive all the way here? If you took a plane here, the journey would be even faster, then."

Dylan replied awkwardly, "I... I came here on a bicycle H

"Ahh?!" Elaine, Claire, and Jacob were all stunned and at a loss for words.

The dignified young master of the Koch family actually came all the way from Eastcliff to Aurous Hill on a bicycle?! Why was he doing this when it was freezing during mid-winter?! 1

When Dylan saw that everyone was very surprised, he could only bite the bullet and say, "The reason why I rode a bicycle here is because I wanted to cultivate my sentiment...” 3

The few people present could not help but exchange glances with one another. 1

Cultivating sentiment? Were all the rich heirs so free nowadays?

Claire could not help but feel a little embarrassed because her best friend came to her house with so many gifts, but she had not prepared any gifts in return for her. So, she hurriedly said, "Loreen, you only told me that you were coming to visit my house so suddenly. You did not even tell me anything in advance. You prepared so many gifts for my family but I did not have time to prepare any gifts for you to bring back to your family in Eastcliff at all. I feel so embarrassed..." 1

Loreen smiled as she said, "Why are you still being so polite with me? You can just come and visit me and m y family at my house when you have the opportunity t o come to Eastcliff next time."

As she spoke, Loreen glanced at Charlie before she said to Claire, "Claire, if you have nothing to do after the New Year, you can come to Eastcliff with Charlie for a holiday for two days. The both of you can stay at my house! We can come back to Aurous Hill together o n the seventh day of the New Year, then!"

Claire smiled as she said, "Well, I need to think about i t first. I cannot confirm it immediately." 1

At this time, the doorbell suddenly rang. 1

Jacob hurriedly stood up before he went over. He saw a very mature and sexy superb beauty standing outside the door through the video intercom screen. 2

Jacob asked in surprise, "Hello, may I know who you are looking for?"

The other party asked politely, "Hello, is this Miss Claire Wilson's house? I am Doris Young from the Emgrand Group. I am sorry for coming to visit your house so suddenly!"
