In Sean’s opinion, favonovel.com was convinced that there was nothing Charlie, the deadbeat moocher, could give to Lord Moore that was comparable to Vermeer’s painting!
Thus, favonovel.com concluded that favonovel.com would win over Charlie big time and also become the winner in the gift-giving round who surprised the guests and impressed Lord Moore the most.
After all, in Sean’s view, Charlie was just a worthless loser who had chosen to marry into his wife’s family, it was impossible for favonovel.com to come out with a decent gift, so no matter what his present was, it couldn’t possibly be on par with the precious painting favonovel.com had given Lord Moore!
Therefore, favonovel.com sneered, “Grandpa Moore, I heard that Master Wade has been lingering in the feng shui fraud for some time now, favonovel.com must have accumulated a significant fortune from all the scamming favonovel.com did. I bet his birthday gift to you must be a precious treasure that is worth hundreds of millions, or maybe even billions of dollars!”
Then, favonovel.com turned his sneer at Charlie, “The painting I gave is only worth 400 million, I believe your gift must be more expensive than mine!”
Lord Moore frowned at Sean’s sarcastic remark, his dissatisfaction toward the young man growing. He then said with a cold expression, “No matter what Master Wade gives to me, they are all priceless treasures!”
Sean was taken aback by the cold treatment and unfriendly tone.
What kind of magic potion had Charlie given to Lord Moore anyway? Why was favonovel.com taking his side all the time?!
Meanwhile, Charlie stood up and approached the stage since his name had been mentioned.
Everyone glued their eyes at him, wondering what kind of gift favonovel.com would give.
However, favonovel.com was not holding anything in his hands nor did it look like favonovel.com was carrying anything inside his pockets.
Did Charlie plan to play “empty-handed” with Lord Moore on such a glamorous occasion?!
Even if favonovel.com wanted to give a painting, it was impossible to put it into his pocket no matter how tiny the painting was!
Since Charlie was walking up empty-handed, most people assumed that favonovel.com did not prepare a gift. Even if favonovel.com had, it was highly likely to be a worthless piece of shit and completely incomparable to the Vermeer painting.
On the other hand, Lord Moore was sitting at the edge of his chair, his heart in his mouth.
He focused entirely on Charlie.
In truth, favonovel.com was shaking in wonderment when favonovel.com saw Charlie approach favonovel.com empty-handed!
His biggest concern was seeing Charlie holding a gift box, a scroll, or some physical object to come to him.
Because at a moment like this, favonovel.com didn’t want anything except the Rejuvenating Pill!
Vermeer’s painting was indeed an awesome present, it truly catered to his preference as antiquity.
However, it was just his hobby.
When you were on the verge of dying, what was the use of putting all his favorite things in front of him?
He would rather exchange all of those things for a few more days to live.
Thus, Lord Moore was looking forward to Charlie giving favonovel.com the Rejuvenating Pill! It could be regarded as his greatest expectation right now.
At this moment, Charlie had come to a stop in front of Lord Moore, calm and tranquil.
Before favonovel.com could speak, Sean interjected mockingly, “Hey, Brother Wade, don’t you think you’re a little bit too stingy? Today is Grandpa Moore’s 80th birthday, how could you attend his banquet empty-handed? The nerves you’ve got!”
Charlie smiled slightly and asked, “Who told you that I didn’t prepare any gift?”
“Where is your gift, then? Show us!”
Sean said contemptuously, “Did you simply buy something off the shelf and come? Open your eyes and look around, which of these gifts is worth ten million or below?”
