"Do you have any news on Stephen?"
Jeremiah and Carmen never felt cold despite the pelting winds, only the misery of being ostracized.They were certainly a far cry compared to Yule and Rachel's radiant faces, but they would never hold any grief against Charlie.After all, it was all their own damned fault.Inviting everyone inside, Jeremiah quickly told Carmen, "Go, make some tea for our guests. I'd like to have a little teatime with Yule and Charlie."Having lost her heiress schtick, Carmen nodded, smiling humbly and respectfully—just like a professional waitress. "Just wait for a while. I'll get it right away."Even as she got to work, she was afraid to ask for the Rejuvenation Pill, while yearning for it at the same time.The idea was that if she properly humbled herself to Charlie and his impression of her improved, wouldn't he find some goodness in his heart to give her half?On the other hand, Rachel raised a brow.Carmen was Charlie's aunt, after all, and such menial work simply seemed inappropriate.Tu
Jeremiah himself had been dreaming of taking a Rejuvenation Pill, but he had only gotten half of it at an auction despite staying on his best behavior around Charlie for so long.And he was already so old!On the other hand, Yule and Rachel were only in their fifties. What right did they have to get a full pill each?It was so unfair and unnecessary! It was as though he were a starving man, but Charlie only made sure his stomach was half full.On the other hand, Yule and Rachel never had to go hungry, yet Charlie stuffed them silly anyway!The thought left him moody, but he would never dare let it show in front of Charlie, instead smiling and greeting Yule and Rachel. "Oh, you kids really are in such good health—you're more like teenagers than a middle-aged couple."Carmen was envious too, hurrying to smile at Rachel, "Come, Rachel—what's your secret? You have to share it with me… I've spent a lot on health cosmetics myself, but it's a far cry from the results you're getting."
In the afternoon, Charlie and Quinn's family arrived at the Wades' residence.Carmen, Charlie's aunt, had been working hard the whole day for dinner.Ever since Charlie had defeated Porter Waldron on Mount Wintry, Carmen had constantly been trying to mend things with her nephew.That was why she worked extra hard today, as today was the perfect opportunity to show that she had turned over a new leaf.She was all the more prouder as she was the only one of Jeremiah's children invited to dinner.If she solidified her status amongst the rest of her siblings, who knew if Charlie would afford her more respect and resources.After all, Charlie had made it very clear that he was totally disappointed in his uncles and cousins, and it presented Carmen with an opportunity to establish herself.For Jeremiah's part, he was used to spoiling his daughter.While he was no longer the head of the family, he was still keen to help Carmen rise.Still using the rented MPV, Charlie arrived with Qu
Yule and Rachel traded glances, their eyes wide in excitement as they took the pills at the same time.They were a happy couple, and taking a Rejuvenation Pill each meant they'd spend decades more in each other's company.Their appearances changed dramatically right after they took the pills, too.While Rachel had always maintained her beauty and looked hardly fifty, she was now positively radiant with the Rejuvenation Pill. Her youthful appearance made her look closer to Quinn, too, and they looked more like sisters.Most importantly, they felt as though they had shed dozens of pounds. Aging was inevitable considering their years, and it always felt like rolling down a downhill slope. But with the Rejuvenation Pill, they seemed to be twenty years younger, their creaky joints and difficulty in moving fading right away.And it was so obvious in Rachel that Yule was gaping at his wife, not knowing that he had suddenly transformed into looking thirtyish, too.Just seeing each other'
Rachel and Yule were naturally shocked that Quinn would call the Rejuvenation Pills Charlie's dowry, while Charlie also felt a little embarrassed.But in this situation, he knew he shouldn't say anything, let alone correct Quinn.If he kept quiet, Rachel and Yule would take the Rejuvenation Pills without qualms, and everything would be more or less resolved for now.Naturally, Charlie intended to keep dragging this engagement issue as long as he could, just like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.After all, he had no reasonable solution aside from avoidance.As Yule and Rachel watched Charlie stay silent, they were more or less content—they understood Charlie's mindset and circumstances, and that it'd be coercion if they tried to make him openly agree to marry Quinn.Charlie's offering of the Rejuvenation Pills as a dowry offered a neutral stance, and it was already good enough for them.Seeing that her parents were easing up, Quinn pressed, "The pills are a gesture of Cha
After that, the Mayo Clinic of the United States made a grand news report to the entire world. A medical enterprise from Oskia had produced an extremely special medicine that could cure all kinds of end-stage cancers. After Jimmy’s treatment condition had been made public, Mayo Clinic of the United
Claire asked in surprise, “Dad, why are you dressed so formally today?”Jacob carefully adjusted his tie and grinned. “I’m someone who drives a Rolls-Royce Cullinan now, so I have to pay attention to what I wear. Otherwise, others may think of me as just the driver.”Claire was speechless. She said he
When Charlie said that he wanted to formulate a set of rules in the Gulf of Aden to force those pirates to play strictly according to this set of rules, Porter instantly understood Charlie’s method of work completely. It was not difficult to be the one with the hardest fist in a region, but the one
Porter worked efficiently, and quickly got back to Charlie with the results.“Mr. Wade, there’s a family of Oskians with the name Jane in France. However, the family’s company is relatively average, with a total net worth of roughly ten billion dollars euros at most.”“Their net worth was only ten bil
