The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2977

Tom was completely dumbfounded when he heard this.

He thought to himself, 'Is this something that a f* eking person should be saying?! How can there be such a thing?! This b*tch is deliberately protecting her own family. She knew that I had offended her own nephew, and that is the reason why she is deliberately refusing to help to intercede on my behalf?!'

Just as Tom was feeling extremely angry, Carmen said apologetically, "Tom, I'm really not lying to you. If I were to speak up, I might only be aggravating

Charlie’s punishment for you instead of alleviating it..."

When Tom heard the sincerity in Carmen's tone, he could not help but feel even more puzzled as he blurted out and asked, "This... What do you mean by this, Aunt Wade? I... I cannot figure it out at all... Aren't you, his aunt?! Wouldn’t he be willing to show you some respect at least?”

Carmen laughed in a self-deprecating manner as she said, "Haha... Charlie showing me respect? His subordinates even dare to beat me up! Furthermore, h e did not even side with me when his subordinates beat me up. He sided with his subordinates instead. H e even detained me in Aurous Hill during the New

Year, and even though I begged him, he could not be bothered with me at all. It was also completely useless even when my father pleaded with him on my behalf

H

As she spoke of this, Carmen thought of her unfortunate experience when she had been detained i n the slums in Aurous Hill back then. Her nose started twitching as she began sobbing.

After that, Carmen then added, "Tell me, if I cannot even plead for myself, how can I possibly plead for you?"

Tom was dumbfounded, and he felt like ten thousand people were slashing at his brain as though they were slashing a glass with a blade, and it made him feel as though his brain was about to pop out.

He subconsciously blurted out, "This... He is simply a brute! What kind of person would treat their own aunt like this?!"

Carmen also felt the same way as she sighed and said, "Tom, you're right...”

At this time, Charlie, who had not spoken up, suddenly spoke up and asked, "Carmen Wade, have you forgotten why I detained you in Aurous Hill?"

'There's no one in Eastcliff who does not know that Carmen Wade has always been very arrogant and domineering. She has always done whatever she wanted to, and she has never looked up to anyone before!’

'But now, she is scared out of her wits because of this Charlie Wade who is in front of me? When she found out that Charlie was listening in on our conversation, she immediately started panicking and being frightened as though she was a mouse who had run into a cat?! Her desire to survive is too scary!'

'Is it because Carmen Wade is really too weak, or is it because Charlie Wade is just too strong?!'

Just as Tom was still utterly shocked, Charlie spoke u p and asked Carmen, "Then, in that case, you're not actually going to plead on behalf of this kid, right?"

Carmen felt so embarrassed, and there were goosebumps all over her body.

She realized that Charlie was truly a very bad person.
