The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Chapter 3490

As Charlie was returning to Oskia under the Northern Europe night, the members of the Wade family’s collateral family who had previously fled were all returning to Eastcliff one after the other with an apprehensive and worried heart. They faced the rising sun as they headed up Mount Wintry in order to face their sins in front of Ten Thousand Armies.

This was because Ten Thousand Armies had made a public announcement that they had gotten the name list for the Wade family’s ancestor worship ceremony. Ten Thousand Armies also demanded that all the people on the list should come back. Therefore, these members from the Wade family's collateral families could only desperately return to Eastcliff.

When they had fled overnight earlier, they did not think that there would be anything wrong with them leaving overnight.

This was because in their opinion, they were just members of the Wade family’s collateral families, and this should not be implicated in the grudge between Ten Thousand Armies and the Wade family.

However, in Charlie's opinion, each of these members of the Wade family's collateral families had been relying on the Wade family's resources for survival and development, and some of them had even been relying on the Wade family to sustain themselves for

many years.

At this critical moment, this group of people had failed to have any family affection or love, and they even failed to be bothered about how closely interdependent they were to the core Wade family. They were simply worse than strangers.

Since they were the ones who had been heartless and unrighteous first, they should not blame Charlie for being ruthless, then.

At this moment, these members of the Wade family's collateral families were all extremely decadent and dejected as they did not know what fate was awaiting them.

After all, the reputation of Ten Thousand Armies was s o widespread that no one would dare to offend such a top mercenary organization.

The sky in Eastcliff was just getting brighter, and many of the members of the Wade family’s collateral family had already rushed back to the bottom of Mount Wintry. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

However, upon their arrival, there was no one from Ten Thousand Armies who were sitting at the bottom of Mount Wintry. This was because all of the soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies were kneeling and repenting in front of the Wade family's ancestral grave on top of Mount Wintry.

At this time, it was Stephen and his old comrades who were also Curtis’ old confidants who were at the

bottom of Mount Wintry.

When these people saw Stephen, someone immediately went up and asked, "Mr. Thompson, where are the people from Ten Thousand Armies? Are they expecting us to go up?”

Stephen had a look of disgust on his face, and his tone was cold as he said, "Porter Waldron, the lord of Ten Thousand Armies, has already instructed all of you to kneel and wait at the foot of the mountain when you arrive!"

The man hurriedly asked, "Mr. Thompson, what exactly is Ten Thousand Armies' intention of asking u s to come back?"

Stephen had a straight and indifferent expression on his face as he said, "I don't know about this either. The lord of Ten Thousand Armies only asked for all of you t o kneel first. As for what he wants all of you to do, you will find out when he comes, then!"

Another person was also very depressed and said, "Mr. Thompson, why do Ten Thousand Armies want us to come back? We had nothing to do with Curtis Wade's grudge and hatred with them back then. Since that's the case, why aren’t they letting us go? Is it just because we also share the last name 'Wade'?!"

Stephen said disdainfully, "Tony Wade, you’re thinking of getting rid of your relationship with the Wade family now? When you came here to ask Lord Wade to give you some new business last month, you said that you would follow Lord Wade for the rest of your life and share in his worries and problems. So, why are you saying that you have nothing to do with the Wade family at this time, then?"

The representative of the Wade family's collateral family who was named Tony was very dissatisfied, and he said, "Stephen Thompson, you're just a slave working for the Wade family. Why are you putting on airs in front of me here? I know that you just want to mock me for betraying the Wade family, right? Yes, I betrayed the Wade family, but what about you? You're also standing at the bottom of Mount Wintry now to deliver a message to us on behalf of Ten Thousand Armies. Why? Did you also betray the Wade family only to become a lackey for Ten Thousand Armies?”

Stephen sneered and said, "No matter whose lackey I a m, it has nothing to do with you anyway. What's most important right now is that you will have to listen to whatever I am going to say now. If you don’t honestly kneel on the spot within three seconds, I will get someone to break your godd*mned legs!"

Tony cursed angrily, "F*ck! Stephen Thompson, who the f*ck do you think you are to be acting so pretentiously in front of me?! The most heartless and unconscionable person here is you! Curtis Wade treated you like his own family back then but now, you're actually turning your back on him to become Ten Thousand Armies’ lackey? Curtis Wade is now buried up on Mount Wintry. Aren't you afraid that he’s going to find out about this?!"

Stephen immediately shouted angrily, "Men! Slap his

mouth!"

As soon as the words left Stephen's mouth, Curtis' old subordinates rushed forward immediately, grabbed Tony, and slapped both the left and right sides of his face in quick succession.
