The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5736

The Ackers had long known that their benefactor and the Fox family’s benefactor were the same person. However, when Christian found out that the behind-the-scenes figure, who had eyes and ears everywhere, was actually his missing nephew of twenty years, he still felt somewhat incredulous.

At this moment, Charlie didn't hide anything and said calmly, “During the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill that day, Mr. Fox intended to purchase a Rejuvenating Pill. However, his son unexpectedly took advantage of the opportunity to seize power from him. I had some acquaintance with Miss Fox, so I helped them a bit.”

Christian nodded lightly and said, “I really didn't expect that my eldest nephew actually has such extraordinary abilities. You’re truly extraordinary!”

Merlin, who had been silent all this time, spoke up, “Christian, don't forget that even my life was saved by Mr. Wade.”

Christian came to his senses and said, “Yes, that’s right. It's truly remarkable! I used to hear my brother-in-law talk about these strange and inexplicable things and felt somewhat disdainful back then. I always thought he was a decent scholar and a young financial talent who should not be spending his time researching things like cultivation, heritage, and destiny, which seemed like a waste of time. But now, it seems he had long discovered the mysteries within, so it’s no wonder why he was so determined…”

Charlie couldn't help but ask, “Uncle, are you saying that my dad had been studying cultivation, heritage, and destiny?"

“Yes!” Christian nodded, saying, “Your dad started studying these things back when he and your mother were in the United States. To be honest, I admired him a lot back then. I had just graduated from college, and I followed him every day to learn useful knowledge. Your dad was very studious. In addition to financial management-related content, he also liked to study antiques and ancient literature.”

“He often paid attention to the antique and auction markets in the United States. If he encountered cultural relics lost from Oskia, he would try his best to buy them and donate them to domestic museums. But one time, he bought a set of antique books in an antique shop in New York and ended up locking himself in the study room for three days.”

Christian suddenly came to a realization and said, “Yes, yes, yes! It's called the Apocalyptic Book! The Preface to the Apocalyptic Book sounded strange to me at first. I thought it was a classic book, but your dad said it was the key to opening another world. I always thought he was a bit crazy…”

Charlie couldn't help but mumble, “The Preface to the Apocalyptic Book… What does the ‘preface’ mean...?”

Christian casually said, “It’s the preface to the Apocalyptic Book!”

Charlie had a horrified expression, and waves of shock rose in his heart. He couldn't help but think to himself, ‘The Preface to the Apocalyptic Book? Does that mean the book my dad got was the preface to the Apocalyptic Book?!’
