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

'Furthermore, it is highly likely that it would have something to do with the reason why he broke in and rushed into Treasure Pavilion today!' As she thought about this, Sophie cto a conclusion. 'There must be someone who is backing him up in this matter. If that is the case, the fact that he broke into Treasure Pavilion today is surely not a coincidence!' 3 'If it is not a coincidence, the fact that he kidnappedand my mother would also not be a coincidence, then!' 'Could it be... could it be that my mother and I have been his target all along?!' Sophie suddenly felt even more flustered! 'If Zakir truly happened to rush into Treasure Pavilion because he was being hunted down, as long as we cooperate with Zakir, after he successfully makes his escape and is safe, my mother and I will have a greater chance of survival. After all, he has already exposed himself in front of the police. Therefore, there is absolutely no need for him to killand my mother to further enrage the police and create a public opinion on this matter. That would only be even more detrimental to his case...' 'However, if someone has instigated Zakir to do this, the fact that he was trying to escape while being hunted down would be entirely fake, and the reason why he rushed into Treasure Pavilion was simply because he wanted to kidnap us. If that is the case, we are really in big trouble...' At this point, Sophie suddenly spoke up, "Mr. Zakir, I will give you fifty million dollars as a reward if you are willing to letand my mother go. I am a person who keeps my word!" "Fifty million dollars?!" Zakir was stunned.

Fifty million dollars was indeed not a small amount to him, and it was already sufficient to tempt him. Moreover, he did not doubt Sophie's ability at all.

After all, she was a member of the Schulz family, so it would certainly be easy for her to take out five hundred million dollars for him if she wanted to, let alone fifty million dollars. However, even if Sophie was willing to give him that sum of money, he was afraid to accept it.

This was because he knew very well that it was the Schulz family who had paid him to kill the pair of mother and daughter in the first place.

'Besides, this matter is even more complicated than I thought!' 'In the beginning, someone askedto get rid of Helen Dunn. Today, someone transferred another twenty million dollars to my family so that I would kill Sophie Schulz too..." 'Why are the people from the Schulz family all so heartless and vicious? It would not matter as much if they wanted to kill Helen Dunn. After all, no matter what it is, she is still an outsider. But why would they wantto kill Sophie Schulz too?' 'A family who would not let even their own family member go can no longer simply be described as cruel. If I follow all of their arrangements honestly, I will be able to gain an opportunity to go abroad. However, if I were to cup with any tricks behind their back and if I were to secretly accept Sophie's money, I am certain that they will never letoff...' 'Furthermore, my family is still in the country. If I were to truly offend the Schulz family and incur their wrath, they will never let my family go. If they are not willing to let even their own family members go, how could they possibly be willing to let my family off the hook, then?!' Sophie could see the complicated and entangled expression on Zakir's face through the car rearview mirror, and she realized the severity of the situation at this point. So, she hurriedly said, "Mr. Zakir, I believe that you also know of my background and identity very well. Fifty million dollars will not be an issue to me. Even if it is sixty million dollars or eighty million dollars, I can give it to you immediately as long as you nod and agree to my proposal. As long as you nod, I can make a phone call and get someone to transfer the money over to your account immediately!" 4 As she spoke, Sophie added, "I will not offer you just fifty or eighty million dollars anymore. I will just round it up for you. I will give you one hundred million dollars. As long as you nod, I will get someone to transfer the money over to your bank account within ten minutes!" As soon as Zakir heard that Sophie would be willing to credit one hundred million dollars into his bank account as soon as he nodded, he could not help but feel extremely tempted. He really wanted to accept Sophie's enticing offer, but he simply could not do so.

This suddenly made Zakir feel extremely irritable, and hesubconsciously blurted out, "Stop talking so much nonsense here with me! This is not just about money!"

As soon as Zakir said these words, Sophie was startled for a moment, and she looked at Helen, who was sitting next to her.

Helen also knew that her daughter had intentionally been trying to get Zakir to talk. As soon as she heard Zakir's words, Helen immediately realized the source of the problem. So, she raised her head to look at Sophie at this moment.

The pair of mother and daughter looked at one another at the stime, and the both of them could see the
