The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 4910

Merlin suddenly felt that this world was somewhat magical when he saw his son-in-law’s nervous and eager expression.

He originally admired his son-in-law very much and always felt that this boy had an unyielding spirit, was not afraid of poverty, and would never lower his head or admit defeat.

To put it bluntly, he felt that his son-in-law was very similar to himself, and he could even see a bit of himself in his son-in-law.

It was precisely because of this that Merlin sincerely treated his son-in-law as his own son since he had no son of his own.

But at this moment, his son-in-law’s behavior made him realize that as a detective who had seen countless people, his view of his son-in-law had been one-sided, wrong, and naïve.

He used to think that his son-in-law was the kind of noble character who would not lust after wealth, but now, it seemed that he was already lustful from a somewhat high starting point, and this starting point was completely inaccessible both to him and his son-in-law in the past.

It was just like how a person would never know whether he was afraid of heights if he had never been to a high place.

One could say that he was not afraid of anything, but his legs might turn weak from fright at a certain height.

At this moment, Merlin suddenly despised him a little.

Still, after thinking about it, wasn’t he just the same?

Although money did not impress him, was he not impressed by the so-called last name and bloodline?

Both he and his son-in-law had departed from their nobility, but it was just that one of them was kneeling in front of money whereas the other was kneeling in front of the bloodline.

On the contrary, Josie’s expression had not changed from beginning to end.

At this moment, Merlin’s daughter suddenly remembered something and asked, “Dad, what... what do you plan to do with the ten million US dollars given by Miss Fox, then?”

As soon as Joy said this, Shane, who was aside, looked at Merlin immediately and blurted out subconsciously, “That’s right, Dad! Do you have any plans for the ten million US dollars now?”

For the young couple, the one hundred million US dollars promised by the Acker family must be placed in the family trust, and the trust would only be lifted unconditionally when their first child turned eighteen.

That meant that even if Merlin had agreed, they had to wait for eighteen years to achieve a huge leap in their social class.
