The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Charlie called Porter after Claire had agreed for him to go to Hong Kong.

As soon as the call was connected, Porter, who was on the other end of the line, asked, "Master Wade, have you discussed this matter with your wife? Will you be able to come over to help me?"

Charlie said, "My wife and I have already discussed this matter. You're lucky that my mother-in-law has happened to just arrive in the United States. So, she can help me take care of my wife. Otherwise, I really would not be able to go over to help you." Porter hurriedly said, "That's great! Master Wade, what time would be suitable for you? I will arrange for a business jet from the United States to send you here!"

Charlie excused himself and said, "There is no need for you to send a business jet here. I can just buy a flight ticket."

Porter said, "It will take you at least twenty hours or more if you come here on a connecting flight. Moreover, you might not be able to buy the earliest ticket. It would be faster for you to come on a business jet!" Charlie then murmured, "That's right.

Since it's urgent, naturally, the sooner it is, the better it will be. Alright, then. I'll have to trouble you to arrange a business jet for me. I can leave early in the morning tomorrow."

"Okay!" Porter said without hesitation, "I'll make all the arrangements, then. Would it be okay for you to take off at 8:00 am local time?"

No problem!

Porter said excitedly, "That's great, Master Wade! I'll pick you up at the airport, then!"noveldrama

Charlie then said, "I'll see you in Hong Kong, then!"

After that, Charlie said goodbye to Porter and hung up the phone. He then said to Claire, "Honey, this client's situation is rather urgent, so I may have to leave early in the morning tomorrow."

Claire had a reluctant and distressed look on her face as she said, "It's too difficult for you to catch a plane so early in the morning..."

Charlie smiled and said, "It's just a little earlier, so it's not difficult at all. This client seems to be very powerful, and he said that he will arrange for a business jet for me. I will be flying directly from here to Hong Kong tomorrow morning, and I can sleep all the way there."

When Elaine, who was aside, heard Charlie talking about the business jet, she hurriedly said, "Yes, yes! Business jets are very comfortable! If he wants to sit in the single recliner in front, it has massaging, heating, and ventilation functions. When he gets tired, he can go to the bedroom at the back to sleep. The big bed is more comfortable compared to the bed at home! The flight attendants' services are also excellent!"

Claire could not help but say, "Mom, you've never been on a business jet, but you're talking as if you've been on one before..."

Elaine instantly knew that she had

said something wrong. So, she quickly said Look at what you're saying! I have some knowledge about such things too, alright? You can always see pictures of people taking private jets on the television. It looks like a luxury room in a hotel inside, and it should be very comfortable."

Claire shook her head helplessly and turned to Charlie as she said, "Honey, I'll go to the airport to see you off in the morning tomorrow."

Charlie did not refuse. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have to trouble you to drive and make a trip to the airport then, Honey."

The next day.

Claire's alarm clock went off at six o'clock.

Charlie and Claire got up, had a simple breakfast, and then drove to the airport in Providence.

After Charlie had driven the car to the airport, he parked the car at the entrance of the airport and said to Claire, "Honey, you don't have to escort me in. Just drive back directly."

Claire said reluctantly, "I still want to send you in."

Charlie laughed and said, "You can only send me to the security check. Besides, the client has arranged for a business jet for me, so I will be going to the VIP channel directly. I don't even have to queue up, so will only take a few steps for you to send me in. Don't bother

it

When Claire saw that Charlie was being insistent, she could only nod and say," Alright then, Honey. Please pay attention to your safety. Take care of yourself and make sure to eat well on time when you're outside, okay?"

Charlie smiled and said, "Okay, I know.

Don't worry! I will come back and

accompany you as soon as possible when I'm done!"
