MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND - Season 1 Episode 46

Cheyenne and Charlotte naturally did not believe Bryce’s words. The Carters had never truly treated them as a part of the Carter family before, mainly because William Carter was not Dominic Carter’s biological son. Thus, Dominic obviously wouldn’t let William take over as the head of the family.

William himself did not believe what Bryce said. He grew up knowing that he and Dominic were not blood-related, and Dominic had at best been kind to him and let him join the family on account of his mother. But after his mother passed away, he no longer enjoyed the same treatment that the direct descendants of the Carter family enjoyed. For example, the direct descendants and relatives would receive almost a hundred thousand dollars each year in dividends, while William and his family would only receive about fifteen thousand.

Therefore, Willian didn’t believe at all that he would be able to assume the position of the head of the family in the future.

However, Karen was already tempted and was considering it in her head quickly.

Although the box of gifts was very valuable, the gifts were meant for Lucas, and she reckoned that he would definitely take them away and gain the support of the Sawyers. So she definitely wouldn’t get to keep the gifts.

In her opinion, it would be better to give them to Bryce, as that would mean that they would at least be able to return to the Carter family. And in the future, she might even get to be the mistress of the family.

Besides, she wouldn’t give all of the gifts to the Carters. The value of all the items in the box was almost fifteen million dollars, and she felt that giving half to the Carters would be enough, as she wanted to keep the remaining half. If Lucas asked the Sawyers to help him get the gifts back, she would just say that the Carters took them away and tell them to look for the Carters!

At the thought of this, the gaze in Karen’s eyes when she looked at Bryce became less hostile, and she seemed rather enthusiastic instead. “Bryce, is what you just said true? Will you let us return to the Carter family as long as I hand that box of things over to you? Will William also have the chance to become the head of the family in the future?”

“Of course. Grandpa said it himself. Aunt Karen, have you decided?” Bryce smiled affirmatively.

Seeing that Karen was wavering, Charlotte couldn’t help but say anxiously, “Mom, do you still believe their nonsense and lies? Have you forgotten how they used to bully us? Cheyenne even got on her knees to beg them, was drenched in the rain, and ended up running a high fever because of it. Have they ever shown any concern? They’re saying these things to us now obviously because they want that box of gifts!”

Cheyenne objected vehemently, “Mom, that box of gifts was meant for Lucas. None of them have the right to decide what to do with them.”

Seeing this, Bryce sneered. “I thought Aunt Karen commands great authority at home, but I didn’t expect both your daughters to disregard you and have no respect for you at all. They keep going against your decisions. Anyway, think through it yourselves. It’s your only chance to return to the family. Once you miss it, Grandpa will never give you a chance again, even if you beg him. You will also have to pay us eight million dollars and not a single cent less.”

Karen immediately became anxious and hurriedly pushed William. “Hurry up and say something! Quickly agree to return to the family!”

William pushed Karen away. “I’m not going back! Cheyenne and the others got bullied so terribly, so what’s the point of going back? If you want to, you can go back yourself!”

To be honest, William had also become completely disappointed in the family.

After being pushed by her husband, who had always obeyed her, Karen flew into a rage and reached out to scratch him. “You useless good-for-nothing, you can’t earn any money at all. If we don’t return to the Carters, how can we maintain a livelihood? How are you going to pay the eight million dollars we owe them?”

The two of them got into a scuffle while Cheyenne and Charlotte hurriedly tried to pull them apart.

Bryce was getting impatient. If not for that box of gifts, he wouldn’t bother talking to them.

“Enough. Don’t put on an act in front of me either. Go and find where the items are.” Bryce cocked his head toward the security officers behind him and immediately headed into the house.

“Wait!” Seeing how the situation was developing, Karen stopped fighting with William and hurriedly rushed into the house to stop them.

She just wanted to give Bryce half of the items. If he moved them away himself, he definitely wouldn’t leave anything for them!

Karen stopped in front of her bed, but her actions gave the security officers a cue. Two of them went forward to pull her away while others lifted the bed and quickly took out two boxes from beneath, one large and one small.

“Hey! These are my belongings!” Karen’s eyes were about to fall out. Lucas’s items were in the large box, but the small box contained her personal stash that she had saved up over the years!

Bryce simply ignored her and took a brief glimpse at the box full of cash, title deeds, and share transfer documents. He was so excited that he couldn’t stop himself from laughing.

He could tell at a glance that the value of these items was more than fifteen million dollars.

Watching the security officers carry the items out of the house, Cheyenne and the others naturally weren’t willing to let them take the things away. But they were just a bunch of weak women, so how could they stop these people?

They didn’t just take away the box of gifts. They also snatched away the Lamborghini parked by the entrance.

“Oh my god. They’re a bunch of bandits!” Karen sat on the ground and patted her thigh while wailing.

“What are you crying for? It’s all your fault! If you didn’t show off in front of them yesterday, they wouldn’t have come here!” William yelled at her.

Karen was incensed. “How dare you yell at me? It’s all because you’re a useless man and a loser!”

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Charlotte was so infuriated that she shouted, “Okay, stop arguing! The items the Sawyers gifted Lucas have been snatched away. How are we going to explain it to him?!”

“Explain my foot! Bryce Carter and his men were the ones who took those things away anyway. If he has what it takes, he can very well go after the Carters!” Karen didn’t care what Lucas would think. She just felt the huge pinch.

“Oh, by the way, Cheyenne, didn’t Bryce say that he would let us back into the Carter family as long as we gave him those items? Does this mean that we don’t have to leave the Carter family now? Now that he has taken them away, go to your grandfather and inform him about this.” Karen suddenly urged while grabbing Cheyenne’s arm.

Cheyenne shook Karen’s hand off and said coldly, “If you want to go back, go ask them yourself.”

After saying this, she took Amelia’s hand and left.

All the things that the Carters had done before had completely shattered Cheyenne’s heart. She would definitely not go back to the Carter family!

“Hey, you’re defying me, huh?” Karen complained before turning to look at Charlotte. “Charlotte…”

Without letting her finish, Charlotte interrupted, “Whoever wants to go back can ask themselves. Anyway, I’m not going to go back to that family.” She then left with a look of annoyance.

William ignored Karen and headed back inside quietly with a somber expression.

In the entire courtyard, only Karen remained, sitting on the floor and lamenting endlessly about her miserable life.

Lucas soon caught wind of everything that happened at the residence.

He stared expressionlessly into the distance, the corners of his lips curling up into a faint cold smile. “Since you Carters have a death wish, I’ll grant you your wish.”
