The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Charlie's statement startled Kathleen.

She had been at sea all this time, and thus lost contact with her parents. On her return to American soil and the Fox family, she didn't have the opportunity to see her parents and siblings.

She concluded that Spencer had kicked out her family from the Fox family after he snatched power away from Jordan.

Whenever a new head in a big family rose to power, he would first suppress those who might be a threat to him. He would also remove those he disliked from the family, keeping only the loyal ones around. Once his position had stabilized, the loyal hands would be removed as a way of controlling potential threats.

The siblings who had been kicked out would become distant relatives.

If Kathleen refused to become the next head, her family would not be able to return to the Fox family. They could only leave the family and reestablish themselves again with limited assets.

Thinking of that, she gritted her teeth and finally decided to bite the bullet. She announced to Charlie, "Mr. Wade, I would like to be the head of the Fox family!"

Kathleen knew very well that being the head of the Fox family was a hard role for her. With her age, experience, and network, she would face many difficulties in her new role. Even so, she knew she had no other option but to accept the challenge. Her future was unknown, but she would forge a way through the challenges. It might be hard, but there was hope.

Charlie was pleased to see Kathleen's stance. He nodded and turned to Spencer,' You're still the current head of the Fox family, so you'll have to complete the formalities for the role transfer. As you know, this should be done legally."

"Understood, Mr. Wade. I'll do my best and cooperate well!" Spencer was reluctant to give up his power, but dared not defy

Charlie. He didn't voice any objections and quickly gave Charlie his promise.

Spencer knew he had no right to choose or refuse Charlie. After all, Charlie didn't play his cards in the usual way. The man brought the Ten Thousand Armies to them and killed his precious grandson Homer right in front of him. If Spencer infuriated Charlie, Charlie might just pick up a gun and shoot him in the head without so much as a blink.

Although he was still the head of the Fox family, there was no chance for a comeback. All he could do was make use of the opportunity to leave a good impression on Charlie and grab what little benefit he could for his future self. novelbin

After that, Charlie turned to Jordan again and said, "Lord Fox, Spencer is the current head of the Fox family. However, most of the Fox family's assets are under your name, am I right?"

Jordan quickly stepped forward and said with respect, "Mr. Wade, that is true. The majority of the Fox family's assets are indeed still under my name..."

Charlie nodded. "To be honest, you're no longer young. If you want to live a long life, you should relax and retire soon. I suggest that you might as well give Miss Fox control of all the assets under your name."

"Now that she's the head of the

family, you should give her the power of one. For her to have the position but no control over the assets would be a great constraint. She should hold all the power to make the most out of the Fox family's resources. What do you think?"

Jordan did not dare to defy Charlie. He was somewhat uncomfortable and unwilling earlier, but now, he had fully accepted his fate.

He thought to himself, 'It's a blessing for me to live to this day and come back to the United States alive. Now, it's meaningless even if I have control over the assets. It's better to give them to Kathleen and help her

He paused his train of thoughts and replied respectfully, "Mr. Wade, please rest assured. I'll have my lawyer prepare the necessary documents and transfer the control of assets to Kathleen."
