The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Kathleen did not expect the old man to remember her, so she quickly said respectfully, "Lord Acker, how are you doing lately?"

Lord Acker nodded and said to Kathleen, "I've been fine lately thanks to you, Miss Fox."

Kathleen hurriedly said, "Please don't say that, Lord Acker! How can I afford it when I'm your junior!"noveldrama

Christian, who was aside, also nodded politely at Kathleen and said, "Hello, Miss Fox!"

Kathleen responded respectfully in turn, "Hello, Mr. Christian!"

Christian asked with concern, "Miss Fox, I would like to ask, where is my good buddy, Merlin, buried now? Please give me the address if it's convenient. I'd like to go and pay my respect to him."

Before Kathleen could speak up, Merlin, who was wearing a mask and a pair of sunglasses, suddenly said, "Christian, your good buddy is not dead yet!"

When Merlin said this, Christian and Keith who were beside him were dumbfounded!

Both of them could hear and tell that it was Merlin's voice.

However, neither one of them could believe that the person in front of them was Merlin.

After all, those dead soldiers had shot multiple holes into the bodies of several top experts from the Acker family that day at the stadium. Even if they hadn't seen Merlin's corpse with their own eyes, they knew that Merlin, who had taken the brunt of the attack, could not have survived.

Moreover, Charlie, who had rescued them that day, had also said that Merlin was dead and that even God would not be able to save him.

When Merlin saw Lord Acker and Christian staring at him without saying a word, he pulled off his mask and sunglasses impatiently as he blurted out, "It's me! I'm not dead!"

"F*ck!" Christian blurted out in horror, "I'm not f*cking dreaming, am I?! How... How did you survive?!"

Keith, who was beside him, also could not help but sigh and say, "Merlin, is it really you?!"

Merlin nodded and said respectfully, "Uncle Keith, it's really me!"

Christian came back to his senses, stepped forward, and patted Merlin's face before shaking his shoulders and asking incredulously as he could not hide his excitement, "Merlin, what's going on?! What the hell?! I cannot understand this!"

Merlin sighed and said emotionally, "It's a long story..."

At this time, Keith stepped forward with great satisfaction, embraced Merlin, and said repeatedly, "Merlin, no matter what it is, I'm really relieved and glad that you're standing here alive!"

Christian was also very excited, and he hugged Merlin tightly as he choked up and said, "Merlin, it's great that you're alive... Buddy, I'm so happy..."

Merlin could not stop his eyes from flushing red as he sighed and said, "Christian, at the moment when the elevator door opened and countless bullets pierced through my body, knew that I was going to die. I was not only worried about my wife and my daughter at the time, but was also worried about your family. I thought that something bad was going to happen to you, so I'm very glad to hear that you're all alive!"

Keith sighed lightly and hurriedly said, "Merlin, Miss Fox, this is not the place to talk. Let's go inside and talk!"

Christian also came back to his senses and hurriedly said excitedly, "Yes, that's right! Let's go in and talk! Merlin, I want to get drunk with you at noon!"

Keith looked at Kathleen again and beckoned her, "Miss Fox, if you don't mind, why don't you stay and have lunch with us?"

Kathleen knew that the Acker family must have many questions to ask Merlin and herself. She also knew that she had to observe Merlin's answer and performance, lest he say the wrong thing or revealed any key information to the Acker family.

So, she clasped one of her hands over the other and said, "Thank you, Lord

Acker. I'd be more than honored to do so!"
