The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Charlie honestly did not expect that these people would unexpectedly give him all these gifts, i

Moreover, the gifts that they were giving him were extremely expensive. 2

Both sports cars cost at least forty million dollars each. 1

The wine glasses from the Ming Dynasty were worth more than fifty to sixty million dollars. 1

Moreover, Jasmine even wrote him a cheque for one hundred million dollars. 5

To be honest, Charlie felt very indifferent toward all these gifts.

First of all, a sports car was too showy, and he did not really like that.

He did not like the wine glasses all that much either because he rarely used things like that.

As for the money, the last thing he needed in life was money.

However, when Charlie saw that the four of them were filled with so many expectations as they were eager for him to accept their gifts, Charlie thought for a moment before accepting their gifts indifferently." Okay, I will accept these gifts. Thank you." 3

Since they wanted to thank him and follow in his

footsteps, he should accept their gifts.

When everyone saw that Charlie was willing to accept their gifts, they smiled in relief.

Charlie casually stuffed the one hundred million dollar cheque and the two smart bracelet keys into his pocket before putting the box of wine glasses aside. After that, he said lightly, "Alright, let's eat now!" 4

Everyone hurriedly replied, "Eat! Let's eat!" 3

Just then, Don Albert stood and said, "Mr. Wade, I will continue to keep guard outside the door."

Charlie nodded without asking him to stay.

This was because he knew that the people seated around the table would not be able to accept it if Albert were to have dinner with them.

After all, no matter how good his character or personality was, Don Albert was still a mobster boss, whereas the rest of them were all one of the richest or wealthiest people in town. 5

After dinner, Charlie declined Jasmine's offer to send him home and decided to walk home alone instead. 2

Jasmine thanked him once again before driving her limited edition Bentley back to her villa.

As she gripped the steering wheel with one hand and the two magical pills in her other hand, Jasmine wondered whether she should give both of the pills to her grandfather, or whether she should keep one of the pills for herself. 1

If she gave both the pills to her grandfather, she would feel a little depressed because she would be missing out on this magical pill herself. 2

However, if she kept one of the magical pills for herself, she could not help but wonder if her grandfather would be furious if he found out about it i n the future. 1

After putting some thought into it, the desire to possess the magical pill for herself overcame all the other worries in her mind. Jasmine carefully put the magical pill into the glove compartment in her

car as she decided to hold on to the second pill first. If she needed it in the future, she would use it. If she had no use for it but her grandfather needed it, she would give it to him then. 4

When that time came and if Jasmine successfully saved her grandfather’s life twice with the magical pill, she believed that he would surely treat her differently. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

After she had arrived back at the villa, Lord Moore was lying on the sofa as he eagerly awaited Jasmine's return.

When Charlie had come to his house previously, he did not manage to improve the physical condition of his body even though he had managed to save his life. He was still feeling rather fragile and sickly. After several days of rest, he was starting to feel slightly better, but he still needed someone to help him if he needed to stand up or walk. 4

For an arrogant and proud man like him, the physical inconvenience was one of his biggest regrets in life. 6

Therefore, he was really pinning all of his hopes on the magical pill concocted by Mr. Wade to regain his health and agility.
