Graham put on a sullen face and said earnestly, “Darling, before long, Master Wade will be so successful that he’ll spread his wings and soar into the sky like a proud eagle! Until then, all the families in Aurous Hill, no, even families across the country will curry favor with him. They’ll send their most beautiful and charming daughters into his embrace! Baby, you have to seize the opportunity when you deliver the materials to him!”“Huh…”Aurora blushed a timid red. “Dad, what are you talking about… I don’t understand… what opportunity…”“Yes, go on with your act,” Graham squinted at her and teased. “I can see that you admire him very much, don’t you?”Aurora lowered her head shyly, her face now as red as a cherry tomato. She nodded slightly.Graham continued, “I have a hunch that a real master like Master Wade will not stay in the small den of the Wilson family for too long. One day, he’ll leave them. So, you must act fast! Establish a good relationship with him as soon as pos
Early the next morning, Charlie was about to go out to the market when he received a call. It was Aurora, the Quinton family’s hot pepper.Aurora’s coquettish voice resonated through the phone. “Master Wade, are you at home now?”“Yes I am. Why? How may I help you?”“My dad has asked me to deliver some medicinal ingredients to you and he’s said that it’s Miss Moore’s order. May I know if it is a good time to visit you now? I’ll come over if it’s a convenient time for you.”Claire was out early, busy with her new office, while Jacob had gone out with Elaine to the Thompson First mansion to check the progress of the renovation. Charlie was alone at home right now, so he replied, “Okay, come over then.”“Okay! I’ll be there soon!”A few minutes later, Charlie heard a knock on the door.He opened the door and saw Aurora. She was wearing a beige dress, her long wavy hair cascading over her shoulder and her cheeks painted with a pinkish timid blush. She looked extremely beautiful and
It was all the best medicinal ingredients laid out in the huge luggage! Some of them were so rare that Charlie couldn’t even buy them!Bewildered, Charlie looked at Aurora and asked, “Where did your father get so many wonderful ingredients?”“Well, frankly speaking, our family owns a diversified range of business, one of them being medicinal materials. Our ancestors were medicinal material merchants since the late 19th century, and we had our own delivery team that gathered the best medicinal materials from all over the country and sold them to the rich and famous in the city. We’ve been in this business ever since.”Then, she started hurriedly, “Oh yes, my father says that if you need anything in terms of medicinal materials or ingredients in the future, you can tell us directly and we’ll do our best to meet your needs!”Again, Charlie was astonished.Ever since he accidentally obtained the Apocalyptic Book, he was mesmerized by its incredible and mysterious contents. There were
Be it Graham or Aurora, one magical elixir from Charlie was what they could ask for. It was their biggest jackpot! With the magical elixir, they could revive their family members who were halfway through heaven’s gate and it would mean a lot for a wealthy and powerful family like theirs.However, they had never expected Charlie to be so generous as to give them two!Aurora stared in a daze as if Charlie’s word was a form of lightning that had struck her point-blank. She looked intensely at Charlie, her eyes covered with foggy mist, and tears as large as beans rolled down her puffy pinkish cheeks. She sobbed as she said, “Master Wade… you… are you serious?”Charlie laughed. “Why? Do you think I’m just bluffing you?”“Oh, no! No!” Aurora shook her head hurriedly, her tears flying, making the entire scene rather adorable and hilarious.She wiped her tears and said in a sobbing but grateful voice, “I just can’t believe it… Thank you! Thank you so much!”Then, she bowed respectfully.
With her heart still racing and beating violently, Aurora returned home feeling extremely thrilled and overjoyed.Meanwhile, in the Quinton family villa, Graham was waiting for her anxiously.He wondered if Charlie would agree to his request of the magical elixir.After all, the Quinton family was slightly higher ranked than Zeke White’s family in terms of social standing but they paled in comparison with Jasmine Moore’s family. He was afraid that Charlie would look down upon his family although he vowed to be his loyal follower.Even if the Moore family wanted to butter Charlie up, would there be a chance for him to showcase himself with the Moore family in the way?As he was pacing back and forth, worried, Aurora came back. He quickly ran out as soon as she parked her car in the villa’s courtyard.“Aurora, how did it go? Did Master Wade agree to our request?!”Tears drenching her eyes again when she nodded repeatedly.“Yes, Dad! He agreed to our request!”“That’s wonderful!”
The news about Charlie’s refining magical elixir spread like wildfire among several upper class families in Aurous Hill.Zeke White of the White family, Finn Baxendale of Treasure Pavilion, and Don Albert Rhodes of Heaven Springs heard the news. They were eager to ask Charlie for the medicine, but Zeke was the only one who really voiced out his request.Zeke was confident to do so since he had expressed his sincerity to Charlie and had even given him a Thompson First villa worth a hundred million dollars.He went to Charlie’s house in the afternoon since he was at home and asked for the magical elixir as Aurora did. Of course, Charlie didn’t turn down his request since he was quite comfortable to give him commands. His son and nephew were a bit stupid and badly behaved, but he had taught them lessons and now that Zeke was treating him with full respect and docility, there was no need to be stingy over one pill.Zeke bowed and thanked him profusely after getting an affirmative ans
Charlie couldn’t help stealing a few glances at Jasmine, who was truly dashing tonight.If he compared her with Claire, their outlook and body were almost equal, but in terms of temperament, Claire was a few grades beneath Jasmine.After all, Jasmine was the daughter of the prominent Moore family. Her temperament was definitely more classy than an ordinary woman.Meanwhile, Aurora walked towards Charlie and bowed as she blushed again.Unlike the mature and sentimental Jasmine, the unique fusion of Aurora’s heroic appearance with the aura of a timid young lady was a special blend.Aurora wore light makeup, the natural heroine vibe from her body emphasizing her characteristics like the snow lotus on the iceberg, which was very chilly and alluring.However, after she acknowledged her feelings towards Charlie, she blossomed like a flower under the spring sunshine that added a little tenderness and gentle in her aura. She looked at Charlie with a layer of pinkish blush painting her
Don Albert didn’t dare to speak loudly as the significant figures of the city gathered together. Even though they were in his restaurant, he walked behind everyone and wagged his tail at Charlie like a pug, hoping that he would bat an eye at him.Looking at the extravagant spread and the decoration, Charlie smiled at Don Albert and said, “Good job, Albert. Thank you for the arrangement.”Albert smiled like a child receiving candy and said, “It’s my pleasure to serve you. Please have a seat.”Charlie nodded and sat in the main seat of the table.Albert bowed graciously at Charlie and said, “Please just call for me if you need any assistance, I’ll be waiting by the door!”Then, he gingerly exited the suite and stood by the door like a waiter.Albert Rhodes was the king of the underworld in Aurous Hill, but right now, he was nothing but a good-for-nothing thug. He was not yet qualified to sit at the table with Charlie and his distinguished guests—it was already lucky enough for him
