With urgency, Stephen eximed, “Master, I have a minor suggestion that I hope you would consider.”


    Charlie replied, “Please, go ahead.”


    “Master,” Stephen continued, “I believe Eastcliff should let those who have wronged your father face the consequences. First, you must firmly establish control over the Wade Family. After that, you can devise aprehensive n to dismantle these families one by one!”


    Charlie inquired, “If I have control over the Wade Family, which family do you believe I should take down first?”


    “The Banks Family!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Without a moment’s hesitation, Stephen asserted, “The Banks Family is the most powerful. Eliminating them equates to achieving half of your goal. Furthermore, it was the Banks Family that orchestrated the group against your father. They were the leaders of the anti-Wade alliance that was formed in secrecy.”


    “An anti-Wade alliance?” Charlie scoffed, “Very well. An alliance against the Wades! I will not let the Banks Family go unchallenged!”


    “By the way, Master,” Stephen added, “today the old master held a meeting with all his key figures and mentioned you alongside the Banks Family.”


    “Oh?” Charlie furrowed his brow and asked, “What was discussed?”


    Stephen nced at Stefanie, hesitated briefly, and then said, “He stated outright that the old master helped the Wade Family stabilize itself. Nathaniel Wade has been eagerly awaiting the Wade Family’s resurgence. With the old master gone, he has ced his hopes for the future on you and wants you to consider a marriage alliance with the Banks Family.”


    “The Banks Family?!” Both Charlie and Stefanie gasped in disbelief, questioning in unison.


    “To him, it’s all about the Banks Family!” Stephen sighed. “Miss Zara from the Banks Family holds significant standing within her family. Whomever marries her will gain substantial resources from the Banks Family. That’s why he wants you in this situation, but he also asked me to persuade you.”


    After a moment, he nced at Stefanie awkwardly and added, “The old master also mentioned that if the Banks Family doesn’t suit you, Miss Sun would also be an excellent alternative.”<fna0f8> Official source is f?ndnovel</fna0f8>


    Stefanie’s face turned crimson at that remark.


    In a cold tone, Charlie responded, “When my father was unjustly used and our family faced turmoil, he didn’t protect us; instead, he cast us out. Now he expects me to help the Wade Family rise again? That’s a delusion!”


    Stephen Thompson nodded in agreement, saying, “Master, the old master’s approach is indeed a bit over the top, but there’s no need to be overly angry. This could be a valuable opportunity. You could agree to the engagement with Miss Sun, and then leverage that to request more resources from the Wade Family. If you be the next Patriarch of the Wade Family, you’ll be in a stronger position to confront the Banks Family, significantly improving your chances of sess!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
