Jordan was left with no choice and could only agree with Charlie. He said respectfully, "Mr. Wade. Right now, I also think that Kathleen is the most suitable person to be the next head of the family."
Charlie nodded. At last, he turned to Kathleen and prompted her, "Miss Fox, what do you think?"
Kathleen was a little nervous. She had never entertained any thoughts of becoming the head of the family. Plus, there had never been a female head in the Fox family's long history.
Her intention was very simple. She only wanted to strive for benefits for her parents and siblings before Jordan's death. She was worried that her family would be driven away right after Jordan’s death.
She wanted a place in the Fox family through her own efforts, but she never thought about becoming the family’s leader.
Therefore, she felt a little lost, not knowing what to do.
Charlie, on the other hand, knew Kathleen was different from Jasmine and Princess Helena.
Jasmine had no parents and was very close with Lord Moore. Her only desire was to run the Vintage Deluxe's business well. She assumed her uncle and cousin wouldn't be interested in her, particularly after they became the head of the family. With that, she could have a stable life.
Things took a drastic turn mainly because of Charlie's Rejuvenating Pill. It was too tempting to Lord Moore. It also made
Jasmine's uncle and cousin view her as an enemy.
Charlie was the direct reason Jasmine became the head of the Moore family.
Kathleen returned to her senses and muttered anxiously," Mr. Wade... I-I... I don’t think I'm up to such an important role
Charlie pointed to Spencer and said faintly, "Even that man doesn't think he's competent enough to be one. What do you have to worry about?"
Spencer immediately turned bitter. He was indeed much older than Kathleen. Despite that, his management skills could only reach Kathleen's level. Even so, it was embarrassing for Charlie to point that out directly.
Charlie noticed Kathleen’s indecisiveness and lack of confidence. He urged, "Miss Fox, you’re the only one who can lead the family in this time of crisis. Think about Lord Fox, and then think about your parents and relatives. If you don't become the head of the family, how can you guarantee their safety and future life?"
Charlie paused briefly before adding, "If I'm not mistaken... Your parents aren't present here tonight, are they?"
