The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Charlie smiled before he said, "Don't worry. I'll just give it my all and ask them for help. Who knows if someone will agree to help me? They are much more powerful and more capable than we are, so they'll definitely have stronger connections and contacts than we do. Perhaps they'll be able to figure out what happened to Mom."

Claire breathed a sigh of relief and she said gratefully, "Charlie, thank you so much for everything!"

Charlie smiled as he said, "Silly girl. I'm your husband, why are you being so polite to me?" s

As he spoke, Charlie patted her gently on her shoulder before he said, "Let's go down and have dinner first, okay? After dinner, I'll go out and look for some of my friends to see if they would be willing to help me. If they aren't willing to help me, then I'll beg them for help. No matter what it is, I promise to bring Mom back home safely!" 6

Claire nodded repeatedly and she felt a lot more comforted and relieved at this time.

Before this, Claire always felt that she was the only one in the family who cared about her mother's disappearance. However, now that Charlie was standing with her so resolutely and since he was so willing to help her, she naturally felt much more relieved. 8

Charlie could not help but feel very sorry and distressed for Claire at this time. He could tell that Claire had really been very worried about Elaine's disappearance throughout all this time. If he did not bring Elaine back as soon as possible, Charlie was afraid that something bad would happen to Claire before Elaine even met with any major incidents in the detention center, i

Therefore, he decided to implement the plan that he had come up with tomorrow. He had already figured out a plan so that Elaine could be released from the detention center the day after tomorrow.
