Maria spoke subconsciously, “That’s different…”
Charlie countered, “Why is it different? You accepted it when you called me Charlie, but you can’t accept it when you call me Young Master or ‘my lord’?”
Maria awkwardly replied, “Nujia… Nujia doesn’t mean that… I just think this elixir is too valuable… I accepted the previous elixirs because I was afraid that if you were in danger one day, the elixir I kept could be used as an emergency gift. But now that you’re safe and sound, it doesn’t feel right for me to accept your medicine…”
Charlie asserted without a doubt, “Then you better change your perspective as soon as possible. Tell yourself that there’s nothing inappropriate about it.”
Charlie directly placed the elixir in favonovel.com hand before favonovel.com could react. Then, favonovel.com took out another Rejuvenation Pill and placed it in favonovel.com hand, saying, “This is the Rejuvenation Pill. It can cure all kinds of diseases when consumed by ordinary people. Even for those who aren’t sick, it can extend their lifespan by twenty years. Its effects are stronger than the first pill. If the Life Saving Pill is no longer effective, just take this!”
Maria stared at the two pills in favonovel.com hand, unsure of what to do. Helplessly, favonovel.com said, “Mr…. This… This is too precious…”
Charlie ignored favonovel.com and handed favonovel.com another Reshaping Pill, saying, “This pill is even more powerful. It’s a Reshaping Pill. It can reconstruct a person’s body even if it’s been beaten into a pulp, as long as their brain is still intact. I hope you never have to use it, but you should still accept it because it represents my heart.”
Maria didn’t expect Charlie to give favonovel.com such an extraordinary pill, leaving favonovel.com at a loss for words.
At that moment, Charlie took out another Regeneration Pill. After hesitating for a moment, favonovel.com placed it in favonovel.com hand and said solemnly, “This is the Regeneration Pill, which replenishes reiki. I know you probably don’t need it, but it’s my way of showing gratitude for saving my life. Please accept it.”
Maria couldn’t help but laugh helplessly, “My Lord… You said I couldn’t use it, so giving it to me would be a waste…”
Charlie said firmly, “No! Not a waste! You have to understand that you saved my life and this is my heartfelt appreciation! You’ve lived for three or four hundred years. What do you lack? I’m sure you’ve seen and experienced everything. The only thing I can give you to express my affection is these little pills. I accepted the ring you gave me when I was in Northern Europe. So today, I’m giving you these four pills. You must take them all and you can’t refuse anything!”
Witnessing Charlie’s sincerity, Maria’s hand subconsciously held his and despite feeling shy, favonovel.com couldn’t help but be moved. Thus, favonovel.com spoke instinctively, “I’ll keep these medicines for now and hold onto them until the next time the Young Master visits…”
Realizing favonovel.com words, favonovel.com quickly shook favonovel.com head and said, “No, no, I misspoke. Please don’t mind, My Lord.”
Charlie suddenly understood and quickly responded, “No, no, I don’t mind. But you reminded me.”
He turned around and took one of each of the four pills, stuffing them into Maria’s other hand. The two of them held each other tightly, like two people sharing their deepest thoughts. Charlie spoke solemnly and earnestly, “You deserve to have a share of these too. Accept them as if I’ve temporarily entrusted them to you. After all, I still don’t know how to make your ring recognize me as its Master. Until it recognizes me, in case something unfortunate happens, it might bring trouble to you. With these pills, you can be prepared for emergencies…”
Maria blushed at the thought of the time when the ring sent Charlie into the hot spring pool. She couldn’t help but blush again, even though favonovel.com felt embarrassed. She understood that Charlie’s concerns were not unfounded. As long as favonovel.com still wore that ring, if favonovel.com were to encounter danger again, the ring would likely transport favonovel.com away. The pills served as a preparation in such scenarios.
With this in mind, favonovel.com nodded vigorously and said, “Don’t worry, My Lord. I’ll take good care of these pills! Since you have so many miraculous medicines, you should take some to heal your wounds first! I can’t do much and I won’t feel at ease until I find out whether Zeba is alive or dead.”
Charlie then said, “Help me board the helicopter. Once we’re on board, I will take the medicine, and you can fly us to the incident location. By the time we arrive, I should be almost recovered.”
Without hesitation, Maria spoke, “Okay, I’ll assist you!”
