Reuben truly could not understand why his grandfather respected Charlie so much.Lord Moore regarded Charlie as God. His reason was similar to Anthony’s reason for respecting Charlie so much. Both of them were already old men in their twilight years. The more they knew about their upcoming destiny, the more they were afraid of it.However, Reuben was not even thirty years old yet, and if anyone told him that he would be able to live for another five years after taking the magical pill, he would easily dismiss it. On the contrary, for an old man in his twilight years, someone telling him that he would be able to live for another five years was a miracle that was truly comparable to God’s hand.Jasmine could more or less understand her grandpa’s psychological thoughts. After all, unlike Reuben, she also owned one of the magical pills given by Charlie. She had been hiding the magical pill in her car, and the only people who knew about the magical medicine was just Charlie and herself.
At this time, Jasmine asked, “Grandpa, should we bring any gifts along with us?”Lord Moore replied, “Someone gave me a piece of cold jade a few years ago. It has the effect of calming the mind and giving peace to the owner. I want you to give it to Donald and tell him that it is for his son. Even though it might only have a small effect, it is better than nothing at all.”Jasmine nodded before she said, “Okay, grandpa. I understand.”Just then, Lord Moore stood up before he said, “Jasmine, I want you to come with me.”“Okay, grandpa.” Jasmine stood up without any hesitation and hurriedly followed her grandfather into his study room.Upon entering the study room, Lord Moore sat down on his mahogany chair before he asked Jasmine, “Jasmine, I want to ask you whether you have made any progress with Mr. Wade recently?”Jasmine blushed as soon as she heard her grandfather’s words. “Grandpa, I… I… that…”Lord Moore smiled when he saw Jasmine’s flustered reaction. “Young girl, why are
Very soon, Reuben drove Jasmine out of the house, and they headed straight to the Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital in the suburb.In the Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital, the nurses had just fed Kian, who was going crazy at this point.Kian finally regained his consciousness after they fed him, wiped his mouth, rinsed his mouth, and washed his stomach for him. Kian had a very satisfied expression on his face as he lay on the hospital bed with his hands and feet tied up.The few nurses resisted the urge to vomit as they walked out from the intensive care unit to the family resting room outside with a basin filled with the filth that they had just washed out of Kian’s stomach.At this time, Kian’s father, Donald, and his brother, Sean, were sitting on the sofa with no expression on their faces.After coming out of the intensive care unit, one of the nurses greeted them respectfully. “Mr. Webb and junior Mr. Webb, the patient has already regained consciousness.”Donald asked coldly,
Kian was lying on his bed with tears in his eyes as he looked out the window silently. He could smell the strong stench on his breath whenever he breathed, and he felt very disgusted with himself.“Kian.”When he saw the decadent and desolate expression on his son’s face, Donald could not help but feel distressed.Kian did not look at him but instead continued to stare out the window as he choked and said, “Dad, why don’t you just let me die? I am really on the verge of collapse because I have to do something so disgusting every hour of the day…”Donald hurriedly stepped forward as he held his son’s hand and said, “My good son, you have to remember that it is always better for you to live than to die!”Kian burst into tears before he said, “But, who can live an even more miserable life than mine? If I have to continue living like this for the rest of my life, I would rather be dead now…”Donald felt very upset, and he said seriously, “Kian, don’t worry. Dad will definitely heal y
Donald and his son, Sean, had just come out from the intensive care unit when the nurse brought Reuben and Jasmine into the family waiting room.Sean spotted the slim and glamorous Jasmine at a single glance. He was taken aback for a moment and only regained his senses after a few seconds.Donald was also a little surprised to see Jasmine.He was Jasmine’s elder, so he had not had much contact or interaction with Jasmine. They had not seen each other for several years, but unexpectedly, this young girl was now even more beautiful and attractive than she had been in the past. She would not lose out to those big celebrities at all!At this time, Reuben quickly stepped up as he spoke very respectfully, “Hello, Uncle Webb. I am Reuben from the Moore family, and this is my cousin, Jasmine. My grandpa heard that you are in Aurous Hill, so he wanted us to come and pay you a visit.”Reuben continued, “My father is not in Aurous Hill for the time being so he could not come and visit you in
If the two families could work together after marriage, the two families might even have an opportunity to lead and take control of the entire South Region.As he thought about this, he deliberately smiled and asked, “Jasmine, you are so outstanding and beautiful. So, I cannot help but wonder if you are already married?”Jasmine quickly replied in a hurry, “Uncle Webb, you must be joking. If I were to get married, my grandpa would surely have notified and invited you to come to my wedding banquet for a drink already!”Donald smiled as he nodded slightly. This girl was very intelligent, and she knew exactly what to say.After that, he asked again, “Then, Jasmine, do you have a boyfriend now? If you have a boyfriend, can I know which family he is from?”As soon as Sean heard his father’s question, he hurriedly looked at Jasmine with a concerned expression on his face as he looked forward to Jasmine’s reply.Jasmine immediately thought of Charlie at this moment.How good would it b
At this time, Reuben, who had not spoken for a long time, stared at both of them coldly. He could tell that both father and son from the Webb family were interested and moved by his sister, Jasmine.At this time, he could not help but feel a little excited.It would be great if Jasmine could marry into the Webb family!At that time, Jasmine would marry into the Webb family and become a part of their family. When that happened, she would naturally not be able to compete with him for the Moore family’s property and inheritance. He would naturally become the well-deserving heir of the Moore family.In fact, Reuben was afraid that Jasmine would truly end up together with Charlie.He did not know Charlie’s true identity and status. He only knew that Charlie seemed to have some supernatural powers, and that was the reason why his grandfather respected him so much.If Jasmine ended up with Charlie, there was no doubt that Charlie would marry into the Moore family. At that time, he would
After seeing her just now, all of his deep desires and feelings for Jasmine ignited once again.Therefore, he wanted to browse through each and every photo of Jasmine’s circle of friends.He carefully observed every picture of Jasmine and her friends. As he looked at her pictures, he sighed as he thought to himself that she was indeed a very perfect girl, and there was not the slightest fault that he could find in her at all.Thus, he secretly vowed to himself that he would have to get Jasmine no matter what he had to do!***On the way back to the Moore family mansion, Reuben tentatively said to Jasmine, “Jasmine, I think that Sean seems to be interested in you!”Jasmine replied flatly, “Oh.”“Oh?” Reuben parroted her before asking curiously, “Why are you so cold and indifferent toward it?”“Then?” Jasmine asked, “Does he mean anything to me at all? No, he is nothing to me. So, do I have to pretend to be very excited just because he is interested in me?”Reuben asked, “Sean i
