The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Kathleen began to feel a little nervous and asked Rosalie another question.

"Did Mr. Wade change his mind? No... That can't be... Mr. Wade isn't like that. Where does he want us to go?"

Rosalie said smiling, "Mr. Wade said the destination will remain a secret for now. Even I don't know where we're going. All I know is that we have half an hour to prepare. Once the helicopter arrives, it will take us out of here to... Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka." "Sri Lanka..." Kathleen muttered and then turned around to see the land far away to the right.

She muttered to herself, "No wonder the cargo ship has been moving very slowly.

So, he intends to let us disembark here...'

Then, she looked at Rosalie and asked," Rosalie, are you coming to Colombo with us?"

"Yeah," Rosalie replied with a smile. "Mr. Wade has ordered me to escort you to the destination safely."

Kathleen nodded softly and asked again,' Is my grandpa aware of the changes?"

Rosalie said, "I came to inform you as soon as I received the new order. You should inform Mr. Fox and Mr. Yant about this.'

"Okay," Kathleen then became a little melancholy. "I'll go speak to my grandpa and Master Yant now. I'll tell them to pack quickly."

"Sure," Rosalie said, "I'll have to pack too, so let's meet at the deck in twenty-five minutes."

After that, Kathleen trotted back to the cargo ship's cabin.

Jordan was bored in his room, so he was trying to carve a fist-sized piece of scrap wood with a pocket knife.

He had happened to pick up several pieces of scrap wood on the ship, and since he was bored, he had decided to try carving something to kill time.

Meanwhile, his bodyguard, Jarvis, was helping him polish one of the wood carvings. Jarvis had found some sandpaper and had helped him to polish the carving. He praised and said, "Lord Fox, I did not expect you to be so skillful at this! Look at this Tara statue that you've sculpted! It's so lifelike!"

Jordan said smilingly, "When I was young, my biggest wish was to be a sculptor. I even learned the craft from a master for some time."

Then, he glanced at the completed Tara statue in Jarvis's hand and solemnly said," Master Yant, I'll give this Tara to you. If I leave in the future, you can keep this as a memory!"

Jarvis was very grateful for the gift, and he said, "Lord Fox, thank you. I like this Tara, and I will definitely keep it well to live up to your good intentions!"

Jordan nodded with a smile. "If there's a chance in the future. I'll try and find a good piece of agarwood and carve another one for you!"

Jarvis was flattered. "Lord Fox, it's fine... There's no need for that. I'm already very grateful for this..."

Jordan smiled and said, "I should be the one grateful to you. You have served me for so many years and helped me a lot. Now, you're only here because of me. To be honest, I feel rather guilty..." Jarvis hurriedly said, "Lord Fox, say no further. This is my responsibility!"

Jordan nodded, and just as he was about to say something else, Kathleen opened the door and interrupted him.

Kathleen entered the room and

found both her grandfather and Jarvis together, so she hastily said, "Grandpa, Master Yant, I've just

received an order from Mr. Wadenet

He wants us to pack our personal belongings as fast as possible. A helicopter will pick us up and send us to Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka, in half an hour!"

Jordan was very surprised. "Aren't we going to Syria? Why has it been changed to Colombo?"

"I don't know either," Kathleen said, "Mr. Wade has just given the order and had Ms. Schulz pass the message. Ms. Schulz will be coming with us."

"That's strange..." Jordan frowned and smacked his lips as he said, "I understand his reasons for sending us to Syria.

Besides, Ten Thousand Armies has set up a base there. Our safety would be guaranteed there. Why send us to Colombo instead?"

Jarvis was equally puzzled, and he

commented, somewhat at a loss,

"Sri Lanka is relatively chaotic. Besides, it's unlikely for Ten Thousand Armies to have too many people based there... It won't be safer than Syria. Why did Mr. Wade change his plan?"

Kathleen replied helplessly, "Let's not discuss these things for the time being. I'm sure Mr. Wade has his reasons for sending us to Sri Lanka. Besides, we can't refuse him.

Whether it's a blessing or a curse, we'll have to trust Mr. Wade! Also, the helicopter will be here soon. We have to pack quickly."

Jordan sighed emotionally. "Kathleen is right! We'll have to trust Mr. Wade. After all, he's the one who saved us. We'll follow his arrangement! Let's pack and get ready."
