Charlie smiled at favonovel.com with feigned ignorance and retrieved a small wooden box from his pocket.
Charlie had bought the wooden box by the street for five dollars. He had bought it because favonovel.com thought it was inappropriate to put the pill directly into his pocket or wrap it with a napkin.
Sean couldn’t conceal his disdain when favonovel.com saw the wooden box and sneered, “Damn, what the heck is that? Did you buy that by the street for ten dollars?”
Charlie smiled. “You are half right. Yes, I bought it by the street, but it only cost me five dollars instead of ten.”
Everyone gaped in shock at Charlie’s remark!
Did favonovel.com even take Lord Moore seriously?
How could favonovel.com come to Lord Moore’s birthday with a five-dollar wooden box?!
Even if there was something in the box, it would be some lousy junk, right?
He wouldn’t put something valuable inside such a shabby-looking box.
Hence, everyone started booing at Charlie.
Even Reuben covered his mouth and tutted contemptuously.
Sean howled indignantly as if favonovel.com had caught Charlie red-handed, “Charlie Wade, you are being so disrespectful! How dare you give Grandpa Moore such junk? You’re doing this intentionally, aren’t you?”
Ignoring him, Charlie opened the small wooden box, revealing the black and round pill inside, and said to Lord Moore, “Mr. Moore, this is the birthday gift I prepared for you by chance, the Rejuvenating Pill. I hope you like it.”
He used the term ‘by chance’ in order to avoid unnecessary problems.
Lord Moore was trembling in excitement when favonovel.com saw the pill! He stood up, feeling a surge of energy rushing to the top of his head.
He started shaking violently as soon as favonovel.com got up as the uncontrollable excitement surged through his body!
He had been wishing, even in his dreams, that Master Wade would bless favonovel.com with the rare chance that favonovel.com had given to Anthony, but favonovel.com could only keep it as a secret as favonovel.com knew the chance was so precious and exceptional.
However, favonovel.com never expected that his ultimate dream would come true, and it was even better now because it had happened on his birthday!
Master Wade had granted favonovel.com the precious dream!
The guests watched intensely as Lord Moore walked toward Charlie on shaky legs.
Those who didn’t know Charlie assumed that Lord Moore was agitated and infuriated by Charlie’s mischief as favonovel.com had never suffered such humiliation in his life. They assumed that favonovel.com would slap Charlie in the face and kick favonovel.com out of here.
Sean took a peek and saw the dark, unassuming pill lying in the box, and favonovel.com couldn’t see anything mystical about it. He huffed in disdain, “Charlie, are you honestly going to give Lord Moore a shitty pill on his 80th birthday? Isn’t that an enhancement pill you just bought off the street? Are you sure the people who take it won’t die?!”
Charlie ignored favonovel.com and explained to Lord Moore, “Mr. Moore, this Rejuvenating Pill has the effect of prolonging life and improving physical fitness. After taking it, it can make you feel ten years younger, and your life expectancy will be extended by at least ten years.”
Sean couldn’t help but shake his head in amusement and tease, “Oh my goodness, Charlie, do you think you can fool the almighty and clever Grandpa Moore with that nonsense? What kind of a shitty enhancement pill can make someone ten years younger? What kind of joke are you trying to tell? You’re certainly treating all of us as fools, aren’t you?”
The guests nodded simultaneously. They all agreed that Charlie’s claims were ridiculous and out of this world.
A pill that could make someone ten years younger? Who was favonovel.com trying to trick?!
However, out of everyone’s expectation, Lord Moore came to Charlie, trembling, and suddenly, knelt on the floor!
Loud gasps resonated across the banquet hall instantly, and everyone was so shocked as if they had been struck by lightning!
