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

Falco had a vicious expression on his face after he hung up the phone.

He really would not have expected that the old b* stard, Carvalho, would actually dare to negotiate terms with him.

Just as he was feeling a little resentful in his heart, he suddenly felt something writhing around in his pocket. Falco hurriedly reached out his hand as he took out his native parasitic worm from his pocket. 1 After the fat white worm came out of his pocket, it began twisting its body as it made squeaking sounds, almost as though it was protesting out of extreme dissatisfaction.

Falco stroked it gently as he comforted it and said," Don't be anxious. I know that you're not full from your last meal. Don't worry. I've already prepared two meals for you tonight, and I'll certainly make sure that you have a good meal!"

What was rather interesting was the fact that the fat and white worm seemed to be able to understand

Falco's words. 2

After Falco had said that he would make sure that it'd have a good meal, it stopped protesting immediately and began rolling around in Falco's palm.

Falco had a wicked smile on his face at this time as he muttered to himself, "Carvalho Mason, since you do not know what is good for yourself, don't blame me for being merciless! This very day next year will be the anniversary of your death. I'll feed both your great-grandson and your brains to my precious tonight!" 4

Meanwhile, after Carvalho had hung up the phone, he looked at Charlie, who was beside him, and said honestly, "Young Master Wade, I've already done everything that you've asked of me..." Charlie nodded slightly and said indifferently, "In that case, I'll have to trouble you to come to Mount Phoenix Cemetery with me tonight."
