Chapter 689
At this time, the energetic Lord Moore brought a group of Moore family members with him to giveCharlie a toast.
The group of people followed closely behind Lord Moore as they greeted Master Wade respectfully.
Charlie stood up and picked up his wine glass before he said, “Lord Moore, you don’t have to be sopolite with me. I wish to give you a toast with this glass of wine and I wish you a long and healthy life!”
After he was done speaking, Charlie raised his head before he finished the glass of wine. After that, hesaid, “I am going to the Serene Medical Clinic to see Anthony after this so I will leave in a short while.”novelbin
Lord Moore sighed before he said, “Oh, it is really sad to see Dr. Simmons’ medical hall being smashedand destroyed. I should also go over and take a look myself. However, there are still so many guests atthe scene here today so I really can’t get away…”
Charlie nodded slightly before he smiled and said, “Lord Moore, it’s your birthday today, so it’s onlynatural for you to stay back and enjoy this special day with everyone. I have already called Xyla earlierand she told me that they were both not injured in the incident. Only the clinic was smashed badly.Therefore, you don’t need to worry at all.”
Lord Moore hurriedly replied, “Alright then. Master Wade, why don’t you allow Jasmine to accompanyyou then? After all, Jasmine is the one who picked you up today so it isn’t really convenient for you togo over to Dr. Simmons’ clinic on your own.”
Charlie did not turn down Lord Moore’s request and he simply nodded in agreement. After that, Charlieturned around and told the several people seated around his table, “Dear friends, please eat and drinkwell. I will take my leave first.”
Everyone got up to see Charlie off but after Charlie gestured at them, they quickly sat back in theirseat, one after the other.
As Charlie was leaving the banquet hall, he instructed Don Albert, “Don Albert, it seems like my father-in-law has plans to have dinner at Heaven Springs tonight. If you’re going to Heaven Springs tonight,please help me to take good care of him. If you aren’t going over there tonight, then please help meinform the person-in-charge to look after him and take care of him on my behalf.”
Don Albert hurriedly replied, “Don’t worry, Master Wade. I will usually be at Heaven Springs at night. Iwill make sure to take good care of your father-in-law when he arrives tonight.”
“Okay.” Charlie nodded before he said, “Thank you for your hard work.”
Don Albert said, “Master Wade, why are you so polite with me? This is simply what I should be doing!”
In Charlie’s eyes, his father-in-law, Jacob, was actually a pretty good person. In fact, after getting toknow some things about his past, Charlie felt that his father-in-law was actually very pitiful. Therefore,he instinctively wanted to take better care of him.
After bidding farewell to everyone, Charlie stepped out of the Moore family mansion accompanied byJasmine.
Jasmine led Charlie all the way to her car before she personally opened the car door for Charlie.Jasmine only got into the car after making sure that Charlie was already seated inside the car.
As soon as she got into the car, Jasmine looked at Charlie with a grateful expression on her face asshe said sincerely, “Master Wade, thank you so much for everything that you’ve done today…”
Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “Jasmine, you don’t have to thank me. I gave the RejuvenatingPill to your grandfather so it’s already more than enough for him to thank me.”
Jasmine hurriedly said, “Master Wade, I am not just thanking you for that. I am feeling very grateful andI am thanking you for what you said to my grandpa earlier…”
Jasmine was very grateful to Charlie, mainly because of what Charlie said to Lord Moore.
This was because Jasmine had lost her parents when she was still a young child. Even though shewas brought up very well in the Moore family, she rarely received any family affection as she wasgrowing up. Jasmine had never experienced what it felt like to be taken care of and protected by othersat all times.
However, Charlie had actually spoken up for her just now and he even gave her all the credit for theRejuvenating Pill that he has given to her grandfather. Jasmine knew that the reason why Charlie didthat was because he wanted to help her to establish her position in the Moore family. To Jasmine, it feltas though Charlie was protecting her in general, and this filled her heart with a kind of warmth andaffection that she has never experienced in her life before.
It had not been easy for her to live and grow up in the Moore family on her own.
Charlie looked at Jasmine before he smiled slightly and said, “I honestly think that you are the mostsuitable candidate from the third generation of the Moore family to inherit the Moore family. As for yourcousin, I honestly feel that he isn’t suited to run the family at all. If your grandfather decides to hand theMoore family over to him, then everything will definitely go downhill for the Moore family.”
