The Amazing son in law Chapter 6488

“Since she already has a sweetheart, no matter how many of you there are—eight or more—it’s impossible to sway her towards Buddhism,” she stated confidently.

Master Jingqing acknowledged her words, replying, “What Madam has said is entirely correct…”

He continued, “Madam, since Miss Ito has experienced a spiritual awakening, she possesses the qualifications to practice Taoism. However, as she is just beginning her journey, this is a crucial time when she needs proper guidance. Are you willing to mentor her personally?”

Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) shook her head and replied, “She has her own destiny to follow, and her talent in Taoism far surpasses my own. I wouldn’t be able to guide her effectively.”

While Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) had successfully embraced Taoism with Bruce Wade’s assistance, she did not consider herself a genius in the field, especially not compared to Nanako. In fact, in relation to many other talented individuals with Tao Wutong, she felt she lagged significantly behind.

Thus, Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) believed that after her enlightenment, Nanako’s path should be guided by her son, Charlie Wade, rather than by herself.

Moreover, she was aware that Charlie Wade was on his way back, and she felt excited at the prospect of sharing the news of Nanako’s enlightenment with him. This was her little surprise for him as a mother.

Earlier that morning, many believers had gathered for a consecration ceremony. Among them were individuals arranged by Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) as well as devoted followers who had rushed over after hearing the news.

By noon, it was announced that Master Jingqing would be giving a lecture at Qixia Temple in Jinling, which created quite a stir among the local believers.

…

Meanwhile, on the other side of the ocean, it was late at night in the United States.

In the Rothschild family manor, every direct member was still awake.

That evening, the atmosphere in the manor was a mix of joy for some and sorrow for others.

The elder member of the family had suffered a hemiplegic stroke and seemed to have lost his will to fight. He unexpectedly summoned all family members to hastily return to the New York manor for a meeting before dawn. From this, it was clear to everyone that he was preparing to relinquish his position.

Furthermore, since no one had claimed the opportunity of Sifang Baozhu previously, it was evident that the choice of successor would fall to the eldest son, Steve.

As a result, while everyone felt a sense of sadness, thoughts about their futures began to creep into their minds.

Once Steve ascended to power, his first order of business would undoubtedly be to solidify his control over the family.

The family’s most vital and lucrative enterprises would soon be under his direct oversight, which would inevitably mean a painful process of division for the others. While they felt powerless to resist, they knew they had to devise some strategies.

Some of the more astute members immediately began plotting how to approach Steve in private.

However, after Steve’s consultation with the doctor, he chose to see the elder once more, providing him with a recovery massage before retreating to his villa, closing the door to visitors.

Later that evening, a group of siblings and their children arrived to visit, but they were all turned away by Steve’s housekeeper.

Steve was clever; he understood that those who came to visit were hoping to express their loyalty in hopes of securing favorable positions once he took over the family affairs. He recognized the need for capable allies to assist him in managing the family swiftly.

Yet at this pivotal moment, he knew it was crucial to avoid private meetings.

In his view, it would be wise to wait until he had officially succeeded to the throne before selecting loyal subordinates. Any attempts to recruit allies before his ascension could be seen as subversive and might jeopardize his path to leadership.

Therefore, he closed the door, refrained from meeting anyone, and limited his communications strictly to family, aiming to reduce any potential risks.

Steve was so energized by the situation that he spent the entire night wide awake.
