The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5196

Only then did Charlie come back to his senses and say with a smile, “Thank you, but there’s no need for you to go through all the trouble. We’re not thirsty.”

As he spoke, Lady Jenson washed her hands. She disregarded the water droplets on her hand and hurriedly trotted in as she spoke with some trepidation, “Our distinguished guests, please have a seat. I feel really sorry because our family is poor so we don’t have any decent furniture for you to sit on!”

Charlie said respectfully, “Lady Jenson, please have a seat first!”

Lady Jenson hesitated for a moment and then smiled as she sat down in front of Charlie. She looked at Charlie kindly and asked curiously, “Young man, you said that your father knows my husband, so I wonder what is your father’s name?”

Charlie was suddenly at a loss for words.

In truth, his previous idea was very simple. After finding the old lady, he would give her a Rejuvenating Pill under the pretext that he was the son of her husband’s good friend. He would then tell her that he had already bought a house and a storefront in Sentermill for her and her son, and he would then invite her to settle down in Sentermill.

If she doubted his identity or was unwilling to accept it, he would have his own way to deal with this matter, which was through psychological hints.

At the time, he would use psychological hints to let them accept whatever he said and to accept his gift of property and money with peace of mind so that they would not be able to see through him.

However, based on the current situation, this old lady did not seem ordinary at all. Charlie wanted to understand her better, but he felt that it would not be right if he were to use psychological hints in a simple and rude manner in order to question the old lady. Therefore, he was suddenly at a loss for what to do.

The old lady could also see Charlie’s embarrassment and dilemma, so she said to her son, “Jeremy, you should grab your crossbow and arrow to go out and hunt a pheasant before it’s dark. We have distinguished guests today, so we have to entertain them and serve them some chicken, at least.”

The middle-aged man nodded without hesitation and said, “Okay, Mom. You should entertain our guests first. I’ll go out now.”
