Keith became very emotional.After his heartfelt words, he took off his oxygen mask and put both hands together, bowing gently to Quinn in gratitude.“Miss Golding, you have saved my life, and I thank you for your kindness. I’m not a man who gives empty promises. I can only assure you that the whole Acker family will try and lend you our help if you require our assistance in the future!” When Christian heard this, he immediately echoed his father. As the eldest son of the Acker family, he also put his hands together and bowed to Quinn in respect as he gave his word, “Miss Golding, if you need the Acker family’s help in the future, please let me know!” Quinn did not expect Charlie’s two elders to bow to her, and she panicked a little as she hurriedly said, “You’re both Charlie’s elders, and you’re my elders too! Please don’t be so polite! This... This is what I should do...”Holly chimed in gratefully, “Good girl... A miraculous medicine is such a priceless treasure to all, yet y
Generally speaking, a color like the Imperial Jade was simply rare and priceless. It was hard to come by such a big piece of material that could be made into a bracelet with full green color, no cracks, and no flocculent patterns. The odds were as low as one in a billion.Holly’s bracelet was made from real Imperial Jade a long time ago, and it had been handed down from the royal family in the palace during ancient times. Its value had already exceeded hundreds of millions of US dollars!Holly’s jade bracelet was known as the legendary bracelet to jade experts, and it was worth five billion dollars. Quinn was no expert in examining jade, however, she could tell that the bracelet was priceless just by looking at the color.She hurriedly rejected it and said, “Grandma, how could I possibly accept this...”Holly replied solemnly, “Child, you are Charlie’s fiancee. Besides, this is your first time here, and it's our tradition to give a new family member a welcome gift! Just treat thi
The members of the Acker family were already used to Keith’s condition and bad memory loss over the years. Keith’s memory had deteriorated rather badly. In the initial stage, everyone had tried their best to help, hoping for Keith’s recovery. However, as time passed, it had merely become their wishful thinking. Keith had lost his memories of the past two decades, and even though they had tried to help him recover his memories, it had not worked. Keith could not recall anything that had happened over the recent years.Initially, the Acker family would explain the current time and events that he had forgotten daily to Keith. However, as time passed, they gradually realized that their efforts were in vain.Sometimes, the whole family would keep telling Keith stories all day, hoping that he would accept the reality of it all. However, it would not be long before he gradually forgot about everything and returned to his previous state once again. Keith’s current state had reverted to
Holly was extremely reluctant to see Quinn leave in such a hurry. She choked a little and said, “Dear girl, I really don’t want you to leave yet... You don’t know how much I have held back all these years and not told anyone... I wanted to tell Charlie everything when I found him...”Holly wiped away her tears and sighed. “But Charlie is still missing. I don’t know if I will live till the day he comes back. I can only tell you about these things. If I can’t live until Charlie comes back in the future, at least you can help me pass the message to him!”Quinn immediately said, “Grandma, don’t be so pessimistic. I believe you’ll soon find Charlie. When the time comes, the two of us will come to visit you together!”Holly could only nod and hold on to Quinn’s hand tightly as she solemnly said, “Good girl! You mustn’t lie to me. When you come to Los Angeles again, don’t go anywhere else yet but instead, come to visit me first, okay?”“Sure!” Quinn hurriedly agreed and promised, “Grandma
Master Howton felt conflicted about the Healing Pill. Truthfully, he did not trust the pill at all.To him, if his treasured Life-Sustaining Pill was useless, nothing else in the world could save Keith’s life.However, he did not expect a young female star to use such a miraculous pill to bring the man who was about to be declared dead to life!She had saved him with the pill. Keith had been dying, but the pill had rescued him and even healed him instantly. He had then woken up as if he had not sustained any injuries from the fall at all.The miraculous effect was beyond Master Howton’s understanding of the field of medicinal pills.The masters paid attention to the unity of man and nature in their practice, but what they valued the most was the way of alchemy.In the feudal era, the masters who concocted pills with mercury and cinnabar, ultimately killing the emperor, were basically their predecessors.When Master Howton had first started his practice, he had wanted to study th
Even so, Christian did not want Master Howton to continue pestering Quinn. Therefore, he looked at him and solemnly said, “Master Howton, I told you just now that there is not only the Healing Pill in this world but also the Rejuvenating Pill. It can cure all sicknesses and make people twenty years younger. Rather than holding on to the Healing Pill, you might as well look for the Rejuvenating Pill.” Master Howton widened his eyes in shock to hear this, completely dumbfounded.He asked, “Mr. Acker, are you serious? Is there really such medicine in the world? A medicine that would allow one to turn young again?!”Christian nodded solemnly and said, “I was just like you before. I had never believed in such a thing until I witnessed it with my own eyes. That was when I witnessed the miracle for myself. If you’re truly interested in it, you might as well look for clues about the Rejuvenating Pill.”Master Howton asked excitedly, “Mr. Acker, where have you encountered the Rejuvenating
Charlie felt a little emotional upon learning about his grandfather’s Alzheimer’s disease.In his memory, his grandfather was a strong person who had been strong-willed his whole life, constantly oozing a powerful aura and confidence.For a strong man to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease, it was indeed rather torturous. The disease would not kill, but it would destroy a person’s steely will.The fact that the Healing Pill had not cured Keith’s Alzheimer’s was not surprising to Charlie. After all, the Healing Pill’s efficacy was limited. After saving Keith’s life and curing his cerebral hemorrhage, the drug’s efficacy was probably almost all gone.He sighed softly upon thinking of that and sent Quinn another reply: [As long as he’s fine. When are you coming back?]Quinn responded: [Grandma doesn’t want me to leave yet. She insists on giving me a welcome gift, and I don’t know what to do now. Charlie, isn’t it inappropriate for me to accept their gift?] Charlie replied: [It’s fine.
Charlie sending both of them back to New York was a very dangerous move.Jordan became anxious and lost, and he lowered his voice as he said in a flustered tone, “Is Mr. Wade sending us to Spencer? If that’s the case, Spencer will never let us go...” Kathleen suppressed her nervousness and spoke solemnly, “Grandpa, I believe Mr. Wade is not a person like that!” Jordan asked in reply, “Why didn’t he send us to Syria, then? He was the one who arranged that. However, he changed his mind before we arrived in Syria and sent another plane to take us to New York...” Kathleen shook her head and said in a low voice, “I don’t understand why Mr. Wade would do this either, but I believe he wouldn’t hurt us.”After that, she turned to Jordan with a confident look and said firmly, “Grandpa, we were at our wit's end, and it was Mr. Wade who saved us and protected us. We must believe in his arrangement unconditionally.” Jordan hesitated a little before sighing weakly.He then said in a low
