The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2720

Sophie did not know what her mother was thinking, but she was indeed feeling extremely excited to fulfill her wish and obtain her heart's desire. She was also harboring expectations and fantasies for the future. 6

She thought to herself, 'Although this kind of matter, where the hero saves the beauty, sounds very cliche and absurd, that is because most people have never had the opportunity to encounter something like this i n their life. It is only when this kind of thing happens t o them directly that they would be able to feel the lethality and destructive power behind it. When I think about how he was the one who saved my life, I cannot help but develop a mentality where I want to commit myself to him entirely...' 7

'Most importantly, my benefactor did not only save me once, but he has actually saved me twice! He saved my brother once, my mother once, and he has saved my half-sister, who is currently beside me, once too...’ 4

'One life-saving grace would already be unforgettable for a lifetime, not to mention so many repeated times, stacking up again and again.'

'However, I wonder if my benefactor feels the same way toward me, or whether he is still single now?’

Sophie's thoughts were very confused at this point.

She wanted to ask Charlie about it, but she did not know how to bring it up.

Charlie was the one who took the lead in breaking the silence.

He looked at Helen before he spoke up respectfully," Aunt Dunn, I'm truly sorry for keeping you and your daughter here during this time and for not allowing the both of you to have any contact with anyone outside. I'm truly sorry for that.” 3

Helen hurriedly said, "Charlie, you shouldn't be saying things like that. If it weren't for you, Sophie and I would have already died a long time ago. How could w e possibly manage to stay alive and survive safe and sound, then?"

As she spoke, she added, "What's more, I understand very well that the reason why you’re not allowing us to contact anyone outside is because you want to protect us and ensure our safety.”

Charlie smiled slightly as he said, "Aunt Dunn, if you can understand my intentions, it cannot be any better, then.”

After that, Charlie said again, "Although I'm not too sure whether the Schulz family will continue to attack you after finding out the news that you’re still alive, I've already exposed everything that the Schulz family had done to you before this to the public. So, I believe that if the Schulz family is not completely insane, they would not dare to attack you again.”

However, at the same time, she also felt a little entangled in her heart. 4

She was a member of the Schulz family after all. If Charlie considered the Schulz family to be his mortal enemy deep down in his heart, and if he were to continue launching an offensive toward the Schulz family in the future, she would certainly be placed in a very difficult spot as a descendant of the Schulz family.

After thinking about it, she asked Charlie in a low voice, "Benefactor... I can agree to your request, but can you answer one of my questions?"

Charlie nodded before he said magnanimously, "No problem. Speak up."

Sophie plucked up the courage to ask him, "How will you treat the Schulz family in the future? Will you continue fighting the Schulz family until your last breath, or will you let the Schulz family go?"

Charlie spoke up, "Whether I'll let go or continue fighting the Schulz family, that will depend on how big of a part the Schulz family had played in my parents' death." 6
