The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 2974

Carmen had always wholeheartedly been trying to please Lord Wade, and since Lord Wade did not want her to get a divorce, she did not mention this matter to him again.

However, since their relationship had broken down, Carmen and her husband had been separated. The both of them rarely met one another, and they were basically strangers although their relationship as husband and wife still existed.

As for Carmen and Zacheus, both of them were originally just old classmates, and they did not have any inappropriate relationship between the both of them at the very beginning.

However, at a class reunion a few years ago, Carmen had drunk a little wine, and when everyone had begun talking about their current situation, she had begun complaining and telling her classmates that her relationship with her husband had broken down and that the both of them were already separated.

However, she could not get divorced because of her father's request. Zacheus, who had already been long widowed, constantly thought about this matter. 4

For Zacheus, who was constantly looking for young and beautiful women, he certainly would not be

interested in Carmen, who was already a middle-aged woman.

Although Carmen was also a charming woman who had retained her graceful manner, no matter what it was, since age was in consideration, even if she focused on maintaining her own appearance, it was simply impossible for her to be compared to an eighteen, nineteen, or twenty-year-old girl.

Moreover, for Zacheus, who was an old hooligan who had already been doing whatever he wanted to do regardless of what others thought of him, he had always been very picky when it came to choosing his women. Even though he was already more than fifty years old, he would basically not even glance at a woman who was about twenty-five years old.

However, Carmen's situation was relatively special.

No matter what it was, she was still the eldest lady of the Wade family. Not to mention the amount of assets she would be able to inherit from the Wade family in the future, her identity in the Wade family as wel as the resources that she had already contained very powerful strength and interests. 2

So, Zacheus began to be very attentive toward Carmen, and he would do anything to please her ever since the reunion.

Although Carmen was already a middle-aged woman, no matter what it was, she was still a woman after all. 2

Moreover, as people always said, men are teenagers until they die, and no matter how old a woman was, she would also have a maiden's heart.

Zacheus himself was an impressive and dignified person who was also rather handsome. Furthermore, he was the head of the Zielinski family Although Lord Zielinski had many sons, the overall strength of the Zielinski family was still rather impressive. The Zielinski family was much better as compared to Carmen's in-laws who were falling behind. So, as a whole, this was more in line with Carmen's

requirements for her other half. 3

Under Zacheus, who was a veteran womanizer's meticulous all-rounded attack, Carmen quickly fell for it, and she felt as though she was falling in love for the second time. 2 As a result, both of them had begun to quietly hook up.

Zacheus tried his best to let Carmen experience the feeling of falling in love again, and Carmen also gave Zacheus a lot of resources in return.

Carmen had indeed been moved

because of Zacheus, and she truly had feelings for him. She really wanted to be together with him ina righteous manner after she got divorced. As for Zacheus, although he did not really like Carmen he also really hoped that he would be able to marry Carmen and take her into his family because of her identity and background.

The reason why the both of them did not dare to take this step was mainly because Lord Wade simply refused to allow Carmen to get divorced.

Therefore, Carmen also had her own set of plans.

She was thinking that Lord Wade would not have many more years to live. So, there was no hurry for her in these few years as to whether she would get a divorce or not or whether she would get married or not. 3

After all, although the both of them

could not be together openly at this time, they had been constantly looking for various opportunities communicate secretly. Since she could be satisfied by cheating and being unfaithful, she did not care when they would be able to open a banquet. 2

Moreover, if she did not get married first, she could always cater to Lord Wade's requirements. That way, she would be able to make Lord Wade happy, and that would also increase her chances of obtaining ar inheritance in the future. 1

Perhaps if Lord Wade was happy, he would even allocate more inheritance to her, then.

That way, she could just get divorced from her original spouse after getting her share of the inheritance before she openly got married to Zacheus. Wouldn't everything be completely perfect for the second half Of her life, then? 4
