The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 4908

“You agreed?!”

When Merlin heard his son-in-law’s reply, his whole body felt both surprised, and he was vaguely leaping out of joy.

Although he had said that Lord Acker was old-fashioned, he had actually also been convinced by Lord Acker long ago.

He knew that this kind of old-fashioned thinking should be criticized to a certain extent, but he also agreed with Lord Acker’s logic, which was that the family’s last name should be passed on.

Regardless of whether it was male or female, as long as there was an offspring with the last name, the lineage would continue to be passed on.

However, once there was a break in the middle, this lineage would exit the stage of history completely within a few decades.

Therefore, if his son-in-law agreed to let his daughter’s children take the last name, Lammy, the family name would be able to continue to be passed down the line.

Merlin was very excited to hear that his son-in-law had agreed because of this.

However, he did not expect that his son-in-law, who had always regarded himself as a high achiever, would be so easily persuaded by Christian.

His son-in-law also seemed a little ashamed at this time.

He took the initiative to explain awkwardly, “Dad, it’s not that I’m no good... It’s simply because the offer made by the Acker family is too tempting... Even if I were to work hard for the rest of my life, I would not be able to leave so much money to my children and grandchildren...”

Merlin’s son-in-law was just desperate to give the reason for his surrender to money.

“Moreover, in addition to the interest income of thirty-two million US dollars annually, the principal of the four hundred million US dollars is not moved, so as long as the Acker family’s trust company that we have backed does not collapse, we will be able to continue at an interest rate of eight percent per annum all the time!”

“And so what even if the trust company fails? The law has long stipulated that the trust company's own assets and the client's trust property are completely separate, so even if the trust company goes bankrupt and closes down, it is impossible to liquidate our money when it comes to liquidation! All we need to do is change the trust company and transfer our interests there.”

“In other words, as long as the United States is still here, our money will always be here! That means that that’s an asset that lasts forever and a family that thrives forever!”

Merlin’s son-in-law was extremely excited, and when he said this again, his heart was already beating rapidly, and he was experiencing shortness of breath.

His whole face was red and he was sweating profusely. His eyes were opened wide, and there was some rippling in all his blood vessels.
