The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 2601

Claire's words made Charlie's heart feel very warm.

Over the years, Claire had always been very patient and accommodating toward him. Even when everyone was pointing their fingers at him and despising him over the past few years, Claire had never once complained about him, and she had never had any thoughts of divorcing him at all.

Now that Claire was saying this from the bottom of her heart, this made Charlie feel even more touched.

However, Charlie knew very well that Claire did not know anything about his true identity, his current wealth, or even the ocean shipping business that he had in mind.

He assumed that Claire probably thought that he wanted to start a small-scale business when he mentioned the fact that he wanted to do his own business. She did not know that what he wanted to do was actually a large-scale project that was worth tens of billions of dollars.

Charlie did not want to worry Claire too much, so he simply smiled and said, "Okay, I will listen to your advice then, my dear wife. I will not think about starting a business anymore. I will concentrate on doing my part at home, then!"

Claire heaved a sigh of relief before she smiled and said, "Okay! Anyway, I have currently made great improvements and advancements in my career. So, I will take the responsibility to provide for our family in the future." 4

Charlie said earnestly, "But wife, you should not tire yourself too much either. Emgrand Group's project is so big. If you are really too busy and cannot cope, you should try and do less so that you can subcontract some work to other companies instead."

"I cannot do that." Claire said seriously, "The vice-chairman, Doris, handed such a big project over to me because she trusts in me. So, how can I let her down, then? I will certainly have to do my best for this project."

After she was done speaking, Claire checked the time before she said, "Oh, I will have to go out as soon as possible. If you are feeling lazy and do not want to get up yet, you can continue sleeping for a little longer."

Charlie sat up before he stretched his limbs slightly and said, "I am not going to continue sleeping anymore." 2

Claire nodded and said, "Then, you should go and wash up first. I am going to change my clothes."

Charlie hurriedly said, "Don't forget to eat before you leave."

Claire waved her hand and said, "I will not be eating at home. I will only be wasting even more time. I will order a meal and have it delivered to the company directly. The meal will have already arrived by the time I get to the company." 3

Charlie could only sigh helplessly as he said, "Alright, then. You should pay more attention to your own health and don't tire yourself out too much."

Claire smiled as she said, "Don't worry, I know!"

Charlie thought of how he had 'added some ingredients' into Matilda's congee yesterday, and he suddenly had an idea. So, he blurted out, "By the way, wife, the genius doctor, Dr. Simmons, has come up with a prescription to relieve fatigue. Why don't I get a few packets for you to eat, then?"

Claire had a slightly worried expression on her face as she asked coquettishly, "Is it a traditional medication? I am rather afraid of taking traditional medication. It is honestly too bitter for me. Is it okay if I don't want to take it?"

Charlie hurriedly replied, "Don't worry. It is not a decoction. It is a small honey pill that tastes just like candies..."

Claire heaved a huge sigh of relief before she smiled and said, "Oh, that's great then... as long as it is not any medicine that has to be boiled into a decoction." 3

Charlie nodded and said, "In that case, I will head to Dr. Simmons's clinic in a short while. After that, I will bring a few packets of the medicine back for you, and you can eat a little every day so that you will not be so tired, then." 2 "Okay." Claire smiled sweetly before she said, "Thank you, husband. I will leave first!"

Claire drove away in a hurry, and Charlie took out his cell phone after he was done washing up so that he could make a phone call to Doris.

This was because he wanted to ask Doris to give him some advice, regardless of whether he was going to ask Doris to handle the ocean shipping business or not.

After all, Doris was a professional management talent, and she was much more experienced as compared to Charlie in this regard.

When the phone call was connected, Doris's voice sounded over the other end of the line as she said," Young Master, why are you calling me so early in the morning?" Charlie asked her, "Doris, are you still in Hong Kong?"

"Yes." Doris said, "I am almost done dealing with things over here in Hong Kong. Young Master, if you are urgently looking for me, I can take the earliest flight back at noon." s
