    Jasmine quickly responded, “Grandpa, please tell me what you need me to do!”


    Lord Moore unexpectedly dered, “I want you to make Mr. Wade the son-inw of the Moore family!”


    “What?” Everyone in the living room, including Jasmine, stared at Lord Moore in disbelief.


    In that moment, Jasmine felt a surge of excitement in her heart.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Yet, she remained cautious and said, “Grandpa, Mr. Wade… is already married.”


    “So what?” the old man replied resolutely. “I don’t care if he’s married or if he has multiple wives or mistresses. Even if he has many children, we must win him over! I want a son-inw like him. If he bes part of the Moore family, our business will grow significantly, and we’ll elevate our status among the other elite families. This will be our chance to be one of the most powerful families in the nation!”


    Jasmine hesitated for a moment, but deep down, she felt a strong sense of anticipation.


    She then looked at Lord Moore and said, “Alright, Grandpa. I understand.”


    Lord Moore chuckled and said, “Excellent! If you seed in making Mr. Wade the son-inw of the Moore family, I will appoint you as the next head of the Moore family, Jasmine!”


    Everyone was taken aback by Lord Moore’s words.<fnf2cf> ?????? ???? </fnf2cf>


    How could he possibly pass the leadership of the Moore family to a woman?


    Yet, Lord Moore had made her a promise!


    And he had never broken a promise in his life!


    For the first time, all the members of the Moore family began to contemte this situation…


    …


    When Charlie finally arrived home, it was already ten o’clock at night.


    Upon entering the house, he was surprised to find his entire family gathered in the living room, their faces serious.


    As soon as ine spotted Charlie, she began to interrogate him. “Charlie, where have you been? Do you realize what time it is? How could you be out for so long? Do you even see this as your home?”


    Just as Charlie was about to respond to ine’s barrage of questions, ire suddenly interjected, “Mom!”


    This made ine pause her questioning.


    After Charlie ced some vegetables on the table, he casually asked, “What are you all discussing? Why does everyone look so serious?”


    Jacob chimed in, “Have you heard the big news from Aurous Hill today?”


    “What news?” Charlie inquired.


    “Millennium Enterprise has dered bankruptcy! All of their partners have pulled out, and today, creditors showed up at their door demanding payment. Thepany copsed overnight, and they owe billions in foreign debt. The owner, Peter Murray, was so distraught that he jumped off a building and is now in a vegetative state…”


    Feigning ignorance, Charlie expressed surprise, “Oh? Really? That’s unfortunate.”


    Jacob shook his head and sighed, “Peter Murray used to be a titan in Aurous Hill’s real estate sector. He was incredibly wealthy and influential. I wonder who he crossed to end up like this.”


    “People like him deserve to fail,” ire remarked coldly, showing no sympathy for someone like him who had tried to exploit her.


    ine, meanwhile, sighed and said, “Do you realize how risky starting a business can be, ire? If things go south, you might end up in a dire situation!”


    She then turned to ire and added, “I really think you should reconsider starting your own business. The risks are just too high! You should go back to working for Wilson Group. Your grandmother has promised me that she’ll make you the director there, and you’ll have a stable annual sry. Wouldn’t that be a better option than venturing out on your own?”
