The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Chapter 3417



But today, none of the cast members who had long negotiated with the Wade family came.

All of them knew that the Wade family was going to face a catastrophe today and so, everyone was avoiding it.

Not to mention these paid cast and crew members, but even more than seven hundred of the Wade family's collateral family members had also run away, leaving only James behind.

Therefore, they could only helplessly remove many of the processes for the ancestor worship ceremony this time.

Music, song, dance, and rituals were all omitted, and the only thing left was the sacrificial ritual that was performed by the Wade family themselves. Jeremiah held the memorial text that he had stayed up many nights to write, and he shed tears as he sighed and said, "What I wrote in this memorial text is all about the prosperity and unity of the Wade family members, as well as the re-creation of the Wade family's glory. It's a report that I've prepared for the Wade family's ancestors...”

As he spoke of this, Jeremiah let out a long sigh, and he wrung his wrist with one hand as he said, "But who would have thought that more than seven hundred of

the Wade family's collateral family members would actually be absent today?! And my children and grandchildren are actually mourning for others! I... I'm really ashamed to face my ancestors! I cannot even bring myself to read this sacrificial text anymore..."

"Moreover, the ancestral rituals that we have originally prepared have almost come to a halt. I don't even know how to explain this to our ancestors now..."

As Jeremiah spoke, he was suddenly overwhelmed with emotions. He choked up several times, and he felt that it was difficult for him to continue speaking.

He was a person with deep family affections and sentiments. At the very least, it was much stronger as compared to those descendants of the Wade family who were kneeling at this time.

When he thought of how shabby and depressing this once-in-twelve years ancestor ceremony was at this time, he felt particularly uncomfortable. He felt even more pained when he thought of the more than a hundred Wade family's ancestors who were lying here.

He had long passed the age of fifty years old, and elderly people at this age cherished life more and held more reverence for their ancestors who had passed away.

Even a person who was young, fearless, and had no faith would not be able to help it but involuntarily think about his parents and his ancestors when he was dying, and whether he would be able to see them in the other world after he had passed. He would also think about how he should face them when he saw them.

When the Wade family members saw the embarrassed look on Jeremiah's face, almost all of them lowered their heads in shame.

As for Charlie, he took the memorial text that Jeremiah had written and tore it to pieces. He had a firm expression on his face as he spoke, "Grandpa, since the memorial text is inappropriate, you should just tear it up. There is no need for you to blame yourself too much."

After saying that, Charlie said, "As the saying goes, calamity prompts renewal. It is also the same for a family! Although the ancestor worship ceremony is a little shabby and simple, it has also allowed us to see the true colors of many of our so-called relatives!"

"The Wade family will no longer believe in bloodlines anymore in the future. Instead, we will only believe in actual actions! All the direct members of the Wade family, as well as our Wade family's collateral family members, will have to show genuine actions if they want to gain any benefits from the Wade family in the future!"

"If anyone wants to share in our wealth without going through the hardships with us, then I'm sorry but I, Charlie Wade, will definitely make him pay the price for it!"

As he spoke of this, Charlie looked at Stephen and asked him, "Mr. Thompson, you're still unable to contact those Wade family's collateral family members who fled overnight?"

Stephen replied awkwardly, "Young Master, all of their cell phones are either still turned off or not in the service area. I'm guessing they will not turn on their cell phones before the public receives definite news about the incident today."

Charlie frowned and spoke up, "In that case, when Ten Thousand Armies releases the news to the public about the Wade family's admission of defeat and surrender to Ten Thousand Armies, they would definitely want to draw an even clearer line with the Wade family, right?"

"That should be the case." Stephen

said respectfully," Young Master, in fact, you should not pay too much attention to most of our collateral families. They have very little practical contribution to the Wade family and on the contrary, they just want to get a share of benefits from

the Wade family. To the Wade Kom

family, these people are just like those small countries that came to the heavenly kingdom back then. Every time they rush up to worship, it might seem like they're being very pious, but all of them would want to eat, drink, and live up to their satisfaction in the heavenly kingdom, and they would only leave after getting some benefits. So, the Wade family would actually benefit from drawing a clear line with them." Content belongs to

Jeremiah also spoke up at this time and said," Stephen is right. Many of our collateral families have been relying on the Wade family's

resources to support them. For

instance, it might only cost samet© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

million dollars if we give the same business to others to handle, but it might cost 120 million dollars if the business is given to the Wade

family's collateral families to handle. It would be better for us to draw a clear line from such collateral

families in the future." Content

Charlie said coldly, "We definitely have to draw a clear line with them, but we must not allow them to leave without making any losses."

After saying that, he looked at Porter

and spoke up, " Porter, ask your men to let the word out later saying that Ten Thousand Armies has already gotten the full list of names for the

Wade family's ancestor.ne

ceremony this time, and all

Wade family members who were not present today will have to gather at the foot of Mount Wintry by eight o'clock in the morning tomorrow. Anyone who dares to not come will have to bear the consequences of their own actions!" Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
