The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

As Jakel was accompanying Elaine to the hospital, Charlie was on his way to New York.

Jakel reported the situation to Jordan promptly, and Jordan then reported the situation to Charlie immediately.

According to Jakel, he would only be able to apply for one to two days of hospital treatment time for Elaine at most, but Elaine would have to attend the preliminary hearing after the hospital treatment was

over.

During the preliminary hearing, the judge would make a ruling on whether Elaine could be released on bail based on the general circumstances of the case.

If she could be released on bail, the judge would give a bail amount, and as long as the money was available, she would be able to temporarily regain her freedom.

However, according to Jakel, the amount of contraband involved in Elaine's case was too large, so bail was basically impossible.

This meant that Elaine would temporarily be held in a detention center after the preliminary hearing. Similarly, the United States also had two types of institutions just like Oskia, namely: jail and prison. Although they both translated to mean prison, the former was actually more similar to the detention center in Oskia, which was used to temporarily detain suspects with minor crimes who had not yet been sentenced, whereas the latter was the real prison which was used to imprison criminals who had been sentenced.

Elaine would be detained in the former.

In order not to make Charlie worry too much, Jordan also promised Charlie that he could quietly take Elaine out of jail first through a special channel.

What's more, if Charlie wished to, he could even send Elaine back to Oskia directly and settle things over here completely.

However, Charlie declined his kind offer.

On one hand, Charlie did not want his wife to feel that his ability was too great.

On the other hand, he also hoped that Elaine would learn her lesson after being detained in jail.

When Elaine had been detained in the detention center previously, she had learned a lesson that she could not simply steal other people's things, especially other people's bank cards. However, her experience of being detained in the detention center had only taught her this lesson, and it had not let Elaine realize the danger of this world or make her lose all of her greed and greedy thoughts.

Although Charlie did not know how Elaine had gotten fooled this time, based on his understanding of his mother-in-law, he knew very well that the other party must have promised to give Elaine some kind of benefit. That was the reason why Elaine had let her guard down so much.

So, in Charlie's opinion, it was only natural for him to make Elaine suffer a little and teach her a lesson. However, Charlie also knew very well that Elaine's mistake this time was slightly lighter than the last time when she had stolen his bank card and tried to transfer all the money to her own bank card. Therefore, even though Elaine had to be taught a lesson, she should not have to suffer too much grievance.

Public security in the United States

was not good and it was estimated that the prisoners who were held in the detention center were all suspects who had committed murder or arson and were awaiting their sentence. In this case, based on Elaine's arrogance and her weak body, she might end up losing her life if she were to cause trouble in the detention center.

So, he called Porter and said, "Porter, something has happened to my mother-in-law, and she might probably be held in the detention center New York in a day or two You need to find a way to arrange for a few female soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies to enter the detention center in advance so that they can be on the lookout when she's in there."

Porter knew what kind of person Charlie's mother-in-law was, so when he heard this, he asked immediately, "Mr. Wade, are you hoping that my subordinates will take good care of her or deal with her? If you want me to deal with her, I can..."

"Don't!" Charlie hurriedly interrupted Porter and said seriously, "Of course I want them to take good care of her. What are you thinking?!"

Porter hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wade. I was mistaken... Don't worry. I will definitely arrange for some of my subordinates to go in ahead of time, and they will make sure that your mother-in-law will not be bullied in the slightest upon entering."

Charlie instructed, "Ask your soldiers not to intervene too early if someone bullies her after she goes in. If they intervene too soon, it will look a little fake and illogical. They can let her suffer a little first before they intervene on the grounds of being her compatriots."

Porter said without hesitation, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. I will make the arrangements."
