The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Jaime sighed and said piously, "I didn't suffer much, but I always feel very guilty whenever I think of you and Mom. I've never been able to forgive myself..."

Sophie comforted him quickly, "Those are already things of the past, so don't mention it again. Mom and I also understand you very well, and we are not mad at you at all."noveldrama

With that said, she hurriedly wiped her tears away and said, "Brother, Mom is waiting for you at home, so let's go back quickly!"

Jaime said somewhat embarrassedly, "Sophie, it's not good for Mom to see me in this state. Why don't I find a place to take a bath and change my clothes first?"

"No need." Sophie shook her head and said, "Mom already prepared a set of clothes and also a razor for you. Just come back with me quickly..."

Jaime asked in surprise, "Did Mom know that Mr. Wade would let me come back today? Could it be that Mom pleaded with Mr. Wade to let me come back?"

"No." Sophie shook her head and explained, "I was talking to Mom yesterday about asking Mr. Wade if he would be willing to let you come back to attend Dad's wedding. Mom said that as long as I spoke up, Mr. Wade would surely agree to it, so she went ahead and bought these things for you in advance yesterday afternoon."

Jaime was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, sighed, and said, "It seems that Mom guessed that Mr. Wade would be lenient toward me..."

Sophie nodded and hurriedly urged, "Brother, let's just get in the car and talk. Don't make Mom wait too anxiously."

With that said, Sophie thanked the Wade family's subordinates who had traveled with Jaime and then brought her brother to her car.

When Jaime saw Sophie's clean and tidy Volvo, he hesitated and said, "Sophie, I'm dirty and smelly now, so I will definitely make your car dirty."

Sophie opened the car door, pushed Jaime in, and said seriously, "Brother, we are siblings, and you're more important than my car."

She then returned to the driver's seat and drove away from the airport.

Sophie asked Jaime on the way back, "Brother, how was your journey? Are you tired?"

"I'm not tired." Jaime shook his head and said seriously, "I felt very tired at the beginning and I wished that I could die of exhaustion every day, but I slowly got used to it. To be honest, I am not used to the sudden interruption, and the journey on the plane just now was actually quite torturous."

Sophie was somewhat surprised. She did not expect that her elder brother, who had always been pampered, would be able to adapt to such a difficult pilgrimage.

Jaime went on to say, "I have never been able to persist in doing anything in the past. Sometimes, I feel that smoking really made my respiratory tract feel very uncomfortable, and I've always wanted to quit smoking, but it was difficult for me to persist for even a whole morning. Sometimes, I feel the urge to go to the gym but I cannot persist and would quit in two days. Sometimes, I feel like calming down to learn something that's useful but I really cannot persist and adhere to anything at all."

As he spoke of these things, Jaime sighed and said emotionally, "This pilgrimage let me understand the truth. In fact, it's not that difficult to persist. It's only difficult during the first few days, and as long as I persevere and persist, it will not be so difficult in the future. Walking and groveling everyday sounds unacceptable, but I gradually got used to it after the first few days. I also quit smoking, and my whole physical and mental state have improved a lot. I feel that I've never been so natural and thorough in my life, so I've always been quite grateful to Mr. Wade. This might sound pretentious, but I can honestly say from the bottom of my heart that Mr. Wade was the one who reshaped my soul."

Sophie was dumbfounded.

She never dreamt that her brother who was lazy and was a playboy would undergo a radical change after six months of honing.

That ignorant, arrogant, and domineering young man had quickly faded away and

was replaced by a humble and resolute young man.

This caused Sophie, who was still a little sad, to suddenly feel more relieved and joyful!
