Female Novel
Chapter 535
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 respectingCharlie so much. Both of them were already old men in their twilight years. The more they knew abouttheir 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 livefor another five years after taking the magical pill, he would easily dismiss it. On the contrary, for an oldman in his twilight years, someone telling him that he would be able to live for another five years was amiracle 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 hercar, 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 she knew that even ifanything untoward happened to her, she would have a chance to survive and come back against thewind as long as the medicine was in her hands.
If other people had an opportunity like this, they would not think that it was a great deal at all. This wasbecause 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 he could get his hands on one, hewould definitely give it to the old man so that he could use this opportunity to make the old man feeleven more pleased and satisfied with him. That way, he would be able to secure and inherit more fromthe old man in the future. He would not have secretly kept the medicine for himself as Jasmine had.novelbin
This was not to say that Jasmine was not filial to her grandfather. Rather, she felt that this medicinerepresented Charlie’s concern toward her.
Charlie absolutely wanted her to keep this medicine for herself. Therefore, Jasmine felt as though shedid not want to disappoint Charlie’s hope for herself. She did not want to use the gift that Charlie hadgiven her to win over her grandfather’s acknowledgment and appreciation.
At the same time, Lord Moore suddenly remembered something, and he 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 tomake a trip to the Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital together.”
“The Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital?” Reuben asked in surprise. “Grandpa, why do you want us togo there? What is going on?”
Lord Moore replied, “I heard that something happened to the younger generation of the Webb familyfrom 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 Webbfamily. He is about the same age as your father, but since your father is not in Aurous Hill right now, itwould be inappropriate for an elder like me to personally make a trip there myself. Therefore, I wantboth of you to act as the Moore family’s representative. Just go and take a look at them and send ourregards to them. After all, our families have always shared a close relationship.”
Reuben nodded before he 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 Webbfamily?”
“Oh, cousin!” Jasmine said helplessly as she put her chopsticks down. “We are still having dinner! Whydid you have to bring up something so disgusting?!”
Reuben laughed slightly before he said, “Oh, sorry. I’m sorry. It was a slip of mouth.”
Lord Moore had also watched the video, and he suddenly felt very disgusted as well. Therefore, he putdown his chopsticks before he said, “I heard that the young boy from the Webb family has already beenhospitalized in the Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital for the past two days. Just make a trip there andsend your greetings to Donald. Tell him not to be offended and that your father is unable to visit himpersonally because he 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 notmake it to the top three.
These top-notch big families were all very close to one another. Generally speaking, whenever anyonevisited someone else’s home court, the host would definitely do their best to entertain their guests toprove their sincerity.
