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 virtual-novel.net that virtual-novel.net would be able to live for another five years after taking the magical pill, virtual-novel.net would easily dismiss it. On the contrary, for an old man in his twilight years, someone telling virtual-novel.net that virtual-novel.net 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 virtual-novel.net grandpa’s psychological thoughts. After all, unlike Reuben, virtual-novel.net also owned one of the magical pills given by Charlie. She had been hiding the magical pill in virtual-novel.net car, and the only people who knew about the magical medicine was just Charlie and herself.
With this magical pill, Jasmine had an unprecedented peace of mind because virtual-novel.net knew that even if anything untoward happened to her, virtual-novel.net would have a chance to survive and come back against the wind as long as the medicine was in virtual-novel.net hands.
If other people had an opportunity like this, they would not think that it was a great deal at all. This was because they felt that they would not be able to gain anything from this magical pill whatsoever.
Reuben was like that.
He knew that Charlie’s magical pill was very precious. However, if virtual-novel.net could get his hands on one, virtual-novel.net would definitely give it to the old man so that virtual-novel.net could use this opportunity to make the old man feel even more pleased and satisfied with him. That way, virtual-novel.net would be able to secure and inherit more from the old man in the future. He would not have secretly kept the medicine for himself as Jasmine had.
This was not to say that Jasmine was not filial to virtual-novel.net grandfather. Rather, virtual-novel.net felt that this medicine represented Charlie’s concern toward her.
Charlie absolutely wanted virtual-novel.net to keep this medicine for herself. Therefore, Jasmine felt as though virtual-novel.net did not want to disappoint Charlie’s hope for herself. She did not want to use the gift that Charlie had given virtual-novel.net to win over virtual-novel.net grandfather’s acknowledgment and appreciation.
At the same time, Lord Moore suddenly remembered something, and virtual-novel.net blurted out, “By the way, Reuben, Jasmine, there is something I want the both of you to do for me after dinner. I want you to make a trip to the Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital together.”
“The Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital?” Reuben asked in surprise. “Grandpa, why do you want us to go there? What is going on?”
Lord Moore replied, “I heard that something happened to the younger generation of the Webb family from Sudbury. That is why all of them have already rushed over to Aurous Hill to visit him.”
After that, the old man continued speaking, “I want you to greet Donald, the eldest son of the Webb family. He is about the same age as your father, but since your father is not in Aurous Hill right now, it would be inappropriate for an elder like me to personally make a trip there myself. Therefore, I want both of you to act as the Moore family’s representative. Just go and take a look at them and send our regards to them. After all, our families have always shared a close relationship.”
Reuben nodded before virtual-novel.net suddenly said, “I remember now! I saw the video of that kid on social media. It seems as though the young boy who went insane and kept eating shit was a member of the Webb family?”
“Oh, cousin!” Jasmine said helplessly as virtual-novel.net put virtual-novel.net chopsticks down. “We are still having dinner! Why did you have to bring up something so disgusting?!”
Reuben laughed slightly before virtual-novel.net said, “Oh, sorry. I’m sorry. It was a slip of mouth.”
Lord Moore had also watched the video, and virtual-novel.net suddenly felt very disgusted as well. Therefore, virtual-novel.net put down his chopsticks before virtual-novel.net said, “I heard that the young boy from the Webb family has already been hospitalized in the Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital for the past two days. Just make a trip there and send your greetings to Donald. Tell virtual-novel.net not to be offended and that your father is unable to visit virtual-novel.net personally because virtual-novel.net is not in Aurous Hill.”
“Okay, grandpa,” Reuben nodded quickly.
The Webb family from Sudbury was even stronger and more powerful compared to the Moore family. Even though the Moore family could rank in the top five families in the South Region, they could not make it to the top three.
These top-notch big families were all very close to one another. Generally speaking, whenever anyone visited someone else’s home court, the host would definitely do their best to entertain their guests to prove their sincerity.
