The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 3312
When Jeremiah saw that Charlie had already met and gotten to know everyone, he looked at the time and said cheerfully, "It's a great thing that Charlie has returned. Let's go in, sit down, and have a good catch-up with one another. Our foreign relatives should also be
coming to pay their respects in a while."
When everyone saw that Lord Wade had already given his instructions, they moved to the main hall in the Wade family's old mansion together.
Helena had been following at Felix's side all this while, and she was trying to look for an opportunity so that she could communicate with Charlie alone.
However, when she saw that it was unlikely for her to do so based on the situation currently, she could only give up for the time being.
At this time, in the main hall in the Wade family's old mansion.
Multiple Lexington wood chairs had already been set out in a fan shape per the ancestors' instructions in the center of the large main hall.
Lord Wade's seat had been placed in the center of the fan shape, and there were more than ten chairs to the left and right position of his seat. These were the seats of the direct members of the Wade family.
There were also hundreds of simple folding chairs arranged neatly around the fan shape. These seats had been prepared for their foreign relatives.
Jeremiah pulled Charlie over to the main seat. After that, he pointed directly at the seat on his right-hand side as he said to Charlie, "Charlie, if your father was still alive, the seat on my right side would have been his. Now that he is gone and you've returned to the Wade family, this seat is naturally yours, then!"
The fact that Jeremiah was asking Charlie to sit on his right directly was a move that surprised everyone at once.
This was because according to the rules when their foreign relatives came to visit, Lord Wade would be seated in the main seat, whereas his eldest son would be seated on the lower-left seat. His second son would then be seated in the lower right seat, and his other sons would be seated on the left and right before it was the grandchildren's turn to be seated.
After the grandchildren had been seated, his daughters and granddaughters would then sit next to each other on the outermost side.
As for his daughter's children with foreign last names, they would not be allowed to participate in the ceremony. Therefore, Carmen and Charlotte's husbands and children had not come.
Since Curtis, who was the second son, had already passed away, according to the old rules, Curtis' place
should be deferred to Jeremiah's third son, Caleb.
Caleb had also taken over Curtis' place during the last ancestor worship ceremony twelve years ago.
However, Jeremiah was not giving Caleb the chance to do so this time.
Clayton felt that Jeremiah was favoring Charlie too much. So, he could not help but say, "Dad, Charlie has just come back. I understand that you feel sorry for him, but you cannot change the rules so casually. Since Curtis is no longer here this seat should be taken by Caleb. It would be better for Charlie to sit together with his elder brother, Felix!"
Caleb felt slightly relieved in his heart.
Caleb naturally felt the most unhappy in his heart when he saw that Charlie was going to take his place.
However, he did not dare to speak
up and argue with Jeremiah.
Fortunately, his elder brother was standing up for him to say something fair on his behalf

Jeremiah scoffed at Clayton's words. After that, he said indifferently, "Rules are all set by
people! I am the head of the Wade
family, so I will make the
arrangements as I please!"
After saying that, Jeremiah looked at Charlie and said without any hesitation, "Charlie, you will sit here!"
Charlie naturally had no opinion on this.
He was not only going to sit next to Lord Wade now, but he was also going to replace Lord Wade and sit in the main seat in the near future. Therefore, offending his eldest uncle and third uncle today was just the very beginning.
One day, he would be offending all of the members of the Wade family.
However, it did not matter to him. As the saying goes, the person wearing the crown would have to bear its weight.
If he wanted the Wade family to submit to him, he would have to offend all of the members of the Wade family first.
After that, he would subdue each and every one of their bad tempers so that they could learn to be submissive. He would then make them learn how to bend over and submit to him!
That would be the only way for him to be able to secure his position as the head of the Wade family! Hence, Charlie simply smiled indifferently, and he said without thinking, "Okay! I will sit here, then!" After saying that, Charlie sat down directly!
