The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 669
No one would have imagined that the 80-year-old Lord Moore would actually kneel to Charlie!
Supposedly, when someone lived to be 80 years old, his parents and elders might have already passed away. No one, not even God himself, deserved the privilege of getting him to kneel before them. 2 Moreover, Lord Moore was the head of the Moore family! The largest and most prominent family in Aurous Hill! 2
Their 80-year-old family patriarch had literally knelt before a young man in his twenties!
This was incredulously extraordinary and bizarre!
Sean was equally dumbfounded.
What the hell?!
Had the old man actually knelt for a piece of enhancement pill?
You should've said so sooner!
I could've used the 400 million dollars on the
Vermeer's painting to buy enhancement pills, it would have been enough to cater to your needs until your 200th birthday! 6
I didn't even ask you to kneel to me, betrothing Jasmine to me was all I asked for!
Meanwhile, the Moore family members were all donning different expressions.
Jasmine was filled with uncontrollable thrill and excitement.
Her parents had passed away when she was young. Her grandfather had raised her to adulthood, and she shared a deep and emotional relationship with him.
Besides, she had heard from her grandfather that Dr. Simmons had been given the Rejuvenating Pill some time ago, and she also knew that her grandfather desperately yearned to get the pill himself. 3
For Jasmine, she hoped that her grandfather could be blessed with such a rare opportunity to get the pill and live healthily for another ten years. 6
However, the other family members did not share the same thought, especially Reuben, the eldest grandson of the Moore family. He was utterly worried and upset by this scene.
For as long as his grandfather was alive and kicking, he would not completely hand over the power to his father, and it would be difficult for him to become the sole heir of the family inheritance. 5
As far as he was concerned, Lord Moore had not written any will regarding the division of his inheritance and estate, so, no one knew how much assets he intended to distribute to his three sons after his death as well as Jasmine whose parents had perished.
If Reuben's father couldn't inherit the entire family business, he would get an even smaller inheritance. Thus, he didn't want his grandfather to live longer than he was supposed to. 5
At this moment, Lord Moore knelt in front of Charlie, tears of astonishment pouring down his cheeks.
With a warm smile on his face, Charlie placed the box in his hand and said gently, "This pill is extremely precious and rare. It's the only one left in the world, so I advise you to take it as soon as possible in case it turns bad." 2
Lord Moore accepted the wooden box with shaky hands, and he was very elated!
Amidst everyone's intense gaze and stunned gasp, he bowed down, his forehead touching the ground!
The backs of his hands were on the ground, the palms facing upward, and he said earnestly, "I, Jonathan Moore, thank Master Wade for his generosity and opportunity! I can never repay his ultimate favor, and I hereby swear to God that I will do my best to be loyal t 0 Master Wade for the rest of my life!" 6
Louder exclamations echoed through the hall once again!
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who could believe that Lord Moore would actually kneel and bow to a young man and say such pious words?!
The most clueless and incomprehensible one of them all was Sean!
