The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

The most painful thing would just be the arduous bicycle ride from Eastcliff to Aurous Hill.

However, it was still acceptable. Cycling for half a month was better compared to lying in bed for half a month after his surgery. 7 Besides that, he had really suffered a lot of grievances during the last operation. Moreover, he had not even recovered fully yet. If he were to undergo the soperation again soon, then his pain would definitely be doubled.

At this time, Charlie said, "I asked you to go to Aurous Hill to undergo a reformation and change. Do you think that I'm asking you to go to Aurous Hill to enjoy life there? Lettell you something. You'll only be allowed to ride the most basic Phoenix 28 bicycle and nothing else! Otherwise, I'll make sure that you ride to Aurous Hill with a cart full of bricks then!" s "In addition, after arriving in Aurous Hill, aside from the tyou spend driving Loreen around, you will rent a single room in the shantytown, Cliffcouls. Your monthly living expenses, including your rental, must not exceed one thousand dollars a month!" 7 "Don't worry! I'll ask someone to watch over you and keep an eye on you as soon as you arrive in Aurous Hill. If you dare spend an extra dollar, I'll make you stay an extra day in Aurous Hill. If you spend tens o thousands of dollars there, then you'll never be able to leave Aurous Hill in this lifetime!" When Dylan heard this, he felt that he was about to collapse. 8 How could a dignified young master of the Koch family like himself be asked to live in a shantytown? Moreover, he was not allowed to spend more than one thousand dollars a month and this included his renta too?! Wasn't he going to eat mud then?! Dylan cried as he said, "Mr. Wade, I'm afraid that one thousand dollars will not even be sufficient forto cover the rental..." 6 Charlie replied coldly, "Don't worry. The cost of living in Aurous Hill is not as high as you think it is. The rental for a single room in Cliffcouls will probably only cost you about three hundred dollars a month. You will have an extra seven hundred dollars for your living expenses, which amounts to more than twenty dollars a day. That's already sufficient to keep you alive." In fact, Charlie had been struggling and going through many challenging experiences at the bottom of society for many years of his life. Therefore, he understood the lifestyle of a person who was living in poverty.

The rental rates in Cliffcouls were very low. Back then, the rental for a single story house was only one hundred dollars. Moreover, it was not expensive to eat there. A dish in a restaurant in the alley had cost only two to three dollars. He could even buy four buns for just one dollar back then. That would already be sufficient food for a day.

The prices of things would probably only be doubled a t most. Therefore, one thousand dollars a month was more than enough.

Of course, there would be no standard of living for that kind of life. He would only be able to feed himself and keep himself alive.

However, living that kind of life would be the best kind of punishment for someone like Dylan. This way, he would definitely be cured of his need to be showing off in front of others.

When Dylan heard this, he felt as though he was about to collapse.

To be honest, he would not even be able to buy a cigar with one thousand dollars, i Now, Charlie was actually expecting him to live and survive on one thousand dollars every month? Wasn't he simply trying to kill him? s Sylvia was also very distressed and she started crying again. She looked at Loreen before she choked up and said, "Loreen, please helpto plead with Mr. Wade again! Don't push your brother to a dead end!" Loreen also felt very embarrassed at this time. What could she say now? After all, she had already pleaded with Charlie on behalf of her cousin. She would also feel very shy and embarrassed to say anything else at this time.

After all, her cousin was the one who had started and caused this whole incident in the first place. She also did not want Charlie to let Dylan off without giving him any form of punishment. If that was the case, wouldn't Charlie be seriously wronged then?

Charlie was her benefactor and the only man that she loved deep in her heart. She would rather see her m ve hateful cousin suffering sgrievances than to ask for Charlie to continue making compromises because of her. So, she said embarrassedly, "Aunt, you can't continue spoiling my cousin all the time. Otherwise, you'll only be causing him even more harm over time!" s

Charlie spoke up in a cold voice at this time, "Dylan, I'd advise you to agree to my proposal as soon as possible efore I change my mind.

ve Otherwise, Pll arrange for you to carry cement at one of the construction sites in Aurous Hill. I used to know the boss of Aurous Continental Technology in Aurous Hill. His nis Jake. Do you know what he's doing now?" Dylan shook his head and he was all flustered.

Charlie sneered and said, "He's currently carrying cement at a construction site in Aurous Hill and he'll be doing so for twenty years. Do you want to go there and accompany him?" X
