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

When Charlie heard his mother's name actually coming out of his wife, Claire's mouth, he was instantly shocked, and he stood frozen in place as if someone had cast a spell on his body.

At this moment, Charlie's consciousness also seemed to have lost contact with his body, and he was also feeling extremely shocked. He also lost control of his emotions as he questioned her with much urgency, "What did they say to you?!" When Claire saw Charlie getting so agitated, she asked in astonishment," Honey, why are you getting so agitated? Could it be that you've heard of Ashley Acker before?"

Claire's question caused Charlie to feel a lump in his throat.

In the past, Claire had also asked Charlie about his parents' situation several times.

Charlie could not bear to lie about his parents' death and so, he had told Claire truthfully that his parents had died in a car accident when he was eight years old.

However, although Charlie could not bear to lie about this matter, he also had his reservations. For example, he had never told Claire about his parents' names or their past life experiences.

So, Claire had always felt that Charlie might have somewhat forgotten about his parents' information and memories because he had lost his parents at a young age.

Moreover, Claire was not Kathleen, nor did she have Kathleen's brain or strength. So, she had never had any suspicions at all after hearing Charlie talk about his parents' past.

Therefore, Claire did not ask for any further details.

However, Charlie's reaction to the words 'Ashley Acker' really surprised Claire, and this made Claire think to herself, 'If Charlie has never heard of Ashley Acker before, he would not have reacted in such an agitated manner. However, there is hardly any information related to this person's name on the internet. I myself am only hearing about it for the first time today. So, which channel did Charlie find out about this from?'
