The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

He then stood up, grabbed a piece of tissue paper, and wiped his mouth before turning around and walking out.

Janus was truly relieved when he saw Merline leaving and walking out the door.

He wasn't afraid of Merlin finding out his identity as an illegal immigrant, but of Merlin noticing that the latter had met him before and linking Homer's disappearance to himself.

Charlie and Quinn had been to his shop more than once so. If Janus got exposed, Merlin would be able to follow the trail and find Charlie.

The case of Homer's disappearance was not perfect. It wasn't that Merlin could not find any clues, it was only that the clues were well hidden. If Merlin found out a clue and grabbed it, he'd be able to dig out the whole truth.

Just as Janus pondered over this, he saw that Charlie and Quinn were also walking down. He stepped forward and said, "Young Master Wade, why did you come down? Inspector Lammy just left. I think he's still not far away by now."

Charlie hurriedly said, "Uncle Janus, we have to go first because of an urgent matter. We'll come back and find you later!"

Upon hearing that Charlie had an emergency, Janus didn't hold Charlie back. He simply went to the door first and looked out. When he saw that Merlin had already gotten into the car and left, he said," Inspector hammy's car is gone. You can go ahead and get going if you're in a hurry. Let me know if you need me for anything."

"Alright, Uncle Janus."

Charlie and Quinn hade goodbye to Janus. After that, they got into the car and rushed to the airport.

At the same time...

An altitude of ten thousand meters above the European continent.

Jordan and Kathleen were sitting nervously in a Gulfstream business jet.

Jarvis and Rosalie had both their eyes closed, resting in the cabin, while the grandfather and granddaughter duo were both staring at the darkness outside the window in a daze.

The helicopter arrived in Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka. None of them had any idea where they would be going next.

When they boarded the plane, no one told them of the plane's destination.

At this time, the plane was flying above the thick clouds, making it impossible for them to distinguish the direction and position. So, the grandfather and granddaughter duo felt even more apprehensive and uneasy.

After staring out the window for a

long time, Jordan couldn't help but

ask Kathleen in a low voice, "Kathleen, where do you think Mr Wade wants us to go? The plane has already been flying for several hours. We should be arriving soon if we're going to Syria, right?"

Kathleen nodded as she carefully recalled the world map. "It should take at least six hours for us to fly from Sri Lanka to Syria. It's already been seven hours since we took off. If we're going to Syria, the plane should've descended long ago. Since the plane's still cruising normally now, I guess we're still far from our destination." Jordan fro at this speed, then no matter which

direction we're headed to, I'm afraid that we'll be heading out of Asia... Could it be that Mr. Wade's no longer planning for us to go to Syria, but has some other arrangements for us?" Kathleen said in agreement, "It's definitely out of Asia, but I'm not sure where we are going..."

Having said that, Kathleen looked at her grandfather and said seriously, "Grandpa, you shouldn't worry too much. Mr. Wade will definitely give us a proper arrangement."

Jordan nodded, but he was still

somewhat melancholic as he replied, "I definitely believe in Mr. Wade, but this feeling of the unknown makes me a little apprehensive. I'm not afraid that something will happen to me, but I'm afraid I might implicate you and put you in danger."

"No." Kathleen was very firm. "Since Mr. Wade helped us, he'll never let us face any danger! No matter where this plane is flying to, even if it's New York, I'm not afraid as long as Mr. Wade is around!"
