The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Ever since Charlie had confirmed that the Schulz family had nothing to do with the death of his parents, he had never thought of taking the life of anyone from the Schulz family. He could even spare Sheldon's life, not to mention Jaime.

He had also asked people to secretly protect Jaime on Helen and Sophie's account. The pilgrimage to Jordan Temple was not the same as Dylan cycling on a bicycle to Aurous Hill. The latter had a bicycle, and he would also be passing through the most economically developed areas in Oskia. As long as he did not pedal blindly on the highway, there would basically be no danger to Dylan's life. However, it was different for Jaime. The environment all the way to the west would get worse and worse, and there would be danger everywhere if he was not careful. Charlie would not be able to explain things to Helen and Sophie if Jaime died on the way if he did not secretly protect Jaime.

Jaime also knew that Charlie had not asked people to protect him because he was really being kind to him. Charlie had only done so on his mother and sister's account.noveldrama

But even so, he was still grateful to Charlie for making him come to his senses from the person he used to be.

Therefore, he said to Charlie with incomparable piousness, "Mr. Wade, no matter what your purpose is, I still want to thank you for your kindness!"

Charlie looked at him and said indifferently, "It seems that you have come to your senses and returned as the prodigal son. If you don't want to continue the pilgrimage after this, it can be terminated."

When Charlie said this, Jaime, Helen, and Sophie were all surprised.

Jaime even thought that he had heard wrongly. He would never have dreamt that Charlie would allow him to stop the pilgrimage. After all, he had only walked one- third of the way, and it was also the easiest part of the whole pilgrimage. The remaining two-thirds of the way was the most challenging part. As the altitude became higher and higher, the road ahead would also become more and more difficult. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Jaime would be able to avoid at least eighty percent of hardships if he stopped the pilgrimage now.

Charlie did not say these words out of complete sincerity.

He just wanted to see if Jaime had really changed his ways.

If he could really change his ways and decide to abandon his past ways, he would definitely choose to continue this pilgrimage.

However, if he still had a fluke mind, he would definitely seize this once-in-a- lifetime opportunity.

Charlie was testing him this way to decide whether to allow Jaime to return to the decision-making level of the Schulz family in the future.

Although Sophie was the current head of the Schulz family, it was impossible for Sophie to be in charge of the entire Schulz family on her own. Sophie was like the chairman of a group of companies with the highest decision-making and veto power. It was impossible for her to do all the core things herself, so she still needed a lot of core executive positions to help her run the entire Schulz family's industry.

In a huge group of companies, there were many executive directors and an executive chairman under the chairman's leadership. Every company entity under the group also needed a management team. These core positions were equivalent to officials who have a lot of power in their hands, so there had to be a trustworthy person who was in charge in order to minimize management dysfunction.

However, Sophie did not have many people that she could trust now. Her father could not interfere in the affairs of the Schulz family after he was put under house arrest under the Harker family. Lord Cadfan had gone to Madagascar, and Helen had also gone through the divorce procedures with Sheldon, so it was naturally inconvenient for her to be involved with the Schulz Group.

Therefore, if Jaime could turn over a new leaf, Charlie still hoped that he would be able to return to the Schulz family and help Sophie.

It was because of this thought that Charlie decided to test Jaime.

If Jaime passed this test, Charlie would not stop him even if he became the

second person in charge in the Schulz family in the future.
