Kathleen felt a little flustered the moment her grandfather asked her this question.
Fortunately, Charlie had already prepared her in advance for this matter so that she would not be a complete mess when she had to deal with this matter.
So, she spoke up calmly, “Grandpa, Mr. Wade told me clearly on the way back this time that he is very satisfied with the Fox family’s performance in many matters during this period of time. Therefore, he will come to New York to meet you in person and express his gratitude to you.”
Jordan suddenly became a little nervous and could not help but ask, “Kathleen, did Mr. Wade really say that?!”
“Yes.” Kathleen nodded and said word by word, “Mr. Wade originally said that he would definitely do something to thank the Fox family, but I requested for him to consider your situation and take care of you and your feelings as much as possible.”
Kathleen had some extra thoughts of her own at this time.
In truth, Charlie had given the Fox family two rewards in order to show his recognition of the Fox family.
The first was the Healing Pill that he had given to her, and the other was his promise to Kathleen that he would keep her grandfather alive for another ten years.
Kathleen knew that the reason why Charlie was doing all this was to consolidate her dominance in the Fox family. So, she could not fail to live up to Charlie’s expectations of her.
It was the perfect opportunity for Kathleen to perform in front of her grandfather right now, so she deliberately described Charlie’s second reward as her own initiative to transfer Charlie’s reward to the entire Fox family to her grandfather alone.
Although she felt somewhat guilty for saying this, she could only try to overcome the obstacles in her heart after considering the ultimate goal of this matter.
When Jordan heard Kathleen’s words, he was naturally surprised beyond measure. He could not help but speak up and say, “Kathleen, did Mr. Wade agree to it when you said that?”
Having said that, he remembered something and hurriedly asked, “Kathleen, did Mr. Wade say when he would be coming to New York?”
“No.” Kathleen said, “Mr. Wade only said that he would make time to come over before returning to Oskia. He didn’t mention a specific date. However, Mr. Wade is here in the United States to accompany his wife for more than a month, so I estimate that it will be just about another twenty days, at the latest.”
“Okay, that’s great!” Jordan sighed and said, “It seems that I can be buried about two or three years later, now...”

Elaine, who was walking with the middle-aged and elderly people in the Rampage Team, was in a particularly good mood.
