The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5506

“Huh?” Helen exclaimed as she looked at the old lady in surprise. “You’re Lady Acker?! Please come in! Mr. Christian, please come in too!”

With that said, she quickly opened the door.

Helen did not understand why Lady Acker would come to see her at first but soon realized that the purpose of the old lady’s visit should not have anything to do with her.

Based on Charlie’s instruction, she immediately concluded that the old lady’s purpose in coming here must be to find out clues about Charlie.

Lady Acker and Christian thanked Helen and followed her in. Sophie walked out of the inner door at this moment and could not help but feel a little confused when she saw an old lady and a middle-aged man walking into the courtyard.

Helen quickly introduced, “Lady Acker and Mr. Christian, this is my daughter, Sophie. Sophie, this is Lady Acker and Mr. Christian from the Acker family in the United States.”

Sophie subconsciously blurted out, “Lady Acker… Isn’t that Mr. Wade…”

Sophie initially wanted to say that they were Charlie’s grandmother and uncle but instantly came to her senses when she said those words. She was extremely smart, but she had almost exposed Charlie by accident, so she hurriedly said without revealing anything, “Isn’t that Mr. Curtis Wade’s mother-in-law?”

Lady Acker asked curiously, “Miss Sophie, you know Curtis as well?”

Sophie quickly waved her hands and said, “Lady Acker, you’ve misunderstood me. I don’t know Mr. Curtis Wade. I’ve heard others talk about him before, and I’ve also heard my mother talk about him after she moved here.”

“Oh, I see…” Lady Acker nodded lightly without any doubts. After all, she had investigated the past between Helen and Curtis before coming here. She knew that Helen had been obsessed with Curtis for many years and almost died because of that.

It was, in fact, somewhat embarrassing for her to visit Helen. After all, this gentle and intellectual woman in front of her could be regarded as her daughter’s love rival. Moreover, her daughter had defeated this woman miserably.

Helen hurriedly said, “Lady Acker, please don’t call me Madam Helen. You can just call me Helen.”

Lady Acker nodded slightly and asked Helen, “Helen, I’ve taken the liberty of coming here today because I want to ask you something.”

Helen knew what the old lady wanted to ask her, but she still asked her deliberately, “Lady Acker, what would you like to ask me?”

Lady Acker sighed and said quietly, “After Curtis and Ashley met with an accident, their son’s whereabouts were unknown. We have searched almost all over the world several times over the years, but we’ve never been able to find any clues related to him at all. I want to ask if you have seen any suspicious-looking young men around the age of twenty-eight wandering around this area?”

Helen could only lie and say, “Lady Acker, to be honest, I haven’t noticed it. This is the old town district in Aurous Hill, and the population density here is very high. It’s very chaotic with many people living around this area, and many people come and go every day, so I really didn’t notice anyone acting suspiciously.”

Lady Acker said with a somewhat disappointed expression, “Charlie has always been very affectionate since he was a child, and he was very filial toward his parents. He would definitely come back here to take a look if he is still alive after so many years…”
