The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

This was the lowest point in life for the Acker family. Everyone was drowning in sadness and grief. Charlie's third uncle Jaxson was the most devastated. He couldn't understand why his wife turned out to be a member of the enemy. His perception of family and love was collapsing at this very moment. Meanwhile, his daughter was still overwhelmed by the sudden death of her mother. Her youngest aunt, Lulu, held her in her arms and comforted her. Kaeden, who was most similar to Keith, was clenching his fists and trembling violently.

After a long silence, he announced to his family, "Think about it carefully. It's been nearly one or two decades since our whole family gathered outside. Almost everyone in the family is here except for Dominic..."

Keith nodded softly and said emotionally," When we came here, we even took two planes just in case something happened to the whole family. We're really too careless this time..."

Holly wept and wailed remorsefully, "It's all my fault...! I was the one who suggested that we come and support Nana because of her kindness to our family..."

Christian hurriedly cut her off and comforted her, "How could we ever blame you, Mom? It's true that Nana did us a big favor. It's only natural for us to come and cheer for her. It's just that we've been living too comfortably all these years. Our vigilance had weakened. We're lucky we managed to escape the disaster. We have to learn from our mistakes. Let's keep our guard up and raise our safety measures to the highest level. I believe if we did that, something like this won't happen again."

Keith held Holly's hand and said

solemnly "Christian's right. This isn't

your fault, Mom. In fact, it's my fault.

Our son and I didn't think things through."

Kaeden then said, "Mom, Dad, Christian... You didn't understand my point."

Everyone turned to look at Kaeden.

Kaeden continued, "It's that we were careless this time. However, this is just one of the reasons. More importantly, like I said, this is the first time our family gathered outside in one or two decades. Yet, the enemy quickly seized the opportunity to harm us. What does this mean?"

"This proves the enemy didn't target us because of our negligence. On the contrary, they've probably planned to kill us in one go for many years!"

Everyone became aghast upon hearing this. They instantly understood what Kaeden implied.

Kaeden continued, "Let me say something. Jaxson, please don't take it personally.noveldrama

Honestly, think Adrienne's marriage to our family is a conspiracy in itself! It's a conspiracy against the entire family. It's a long-planned, well-hidden, murderous, and great conspiracy!"

Kaedeen's expression turned grim. He went on darkly, "I have a feeling this incident may have something to do with what happened to Ashley in the past."
