The Amazing son in law Chapter 7394

Yet, this wasn’t her decision to make, so she could only pretend not to notice the awkwardness in the air.

Cynthia Wade, however, was no fool. Seeing the slight embarrassment on Angie’s face made her feel deeply uncomfortable—so much so that she wanted to cry.

Charlie Wade was her own nephew, yet why did he treat her with such distance?

She thought back to the time he had detained her in a Aurous Hill rental house over the New Year. She had been filled with resentment, crying to her father over video calls. But if she had known just how powerful Charlie Wade would become, she would have gladly stayed in Aurous Hill—even as a nanny for Elaine, that shrew—without a single complaint.

But now, it was too late for regrets. She had missed her chance to invest in Charlie Wade’s rise. Unlike the Sun family, who had supported him more than twenty years ago and never wavered, she had no stake in his success. No wonder Charlie Wade treated them so well.

In contrast, she—his own aunt—had become nothing more than an unwelcome outsider.

With these thoughts, Cynthia Wade found herself reflecting on her life—a rare moment of introspection. She had been pampered since childhood.

Not only had her parents doted on her, but her second brother, Bruce Wade, had also adored her.

Later, when Bruce got married, her sister-in-law treated her like a younger sister.

Although Cynthia was spoiled back then, she always remained well-behaved and respectful in front of her brother and sister-in-law. She never overstepped boundaries, nor did she act out of line.

In truth, she had always admired Bruce Wade and Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mother) deeply. At the same time, she had developed a strong sense of dependence on them. She believed that, with such exceptional people by her side, she would always be protected and cared for.

But life had not gone as she expected. Both of them passed away at the prime of their lives.

From that moment, the Wade family fell into decline. Her father no longer had the energy to give her special attention, and her eldest brother remained distant.

For a long time, Cynthia Wade had been pushed to the margins of the family. Meanwhile, her husband—whose success had been largely due to Bruce Wade’s support—lost his momentum after Bruce’s passing. Over the years, he had failed to distinguish himself, causing Cynthia to gradually lose patience with him.

Now, as she looked at her life, a wave of sorrow washed over her.

Her brothers still didn’t take her seriously, instead keeping their guard up around her. Her father, though he wished to care for her, was now too old to do much. He had already handed over control of the family, and the resources of the Wade family were now in the hands of her nephew, Charlie Wade.

Yet, this nephew had no affection for her.

Her thoughts drifted back to Bruce Wade and Lydia (Ava), and a deep sigh formed in her heart.

“If my second brother and his wife were still alive, Charlie wouldn’t treat me like this. They would still love and take care of me, just like before. But now… no one cares about me.”

Lost in thought, Cynthia Wade grew increasingly sorrowful. Sitting alone with her head down, she sobbed quietly.
