Chapter 547
Lord Moore was not stupid. What kind of opportunity could actually make a person look ten years younger than he originally was?!He was afraid that there was only one person in Aurous Hill who could do such a miraculous thing.That person was none other than Charlie Wade!Even though Anthony did not respond, Lord Moore knew very well that Anthony must have received this good fortune from Charlie. That was the reason why Anthony could become so young all of a sudden!At this time, Anthony could not help but feel a little anxious and complicated.He did not dare to talk about the Rejuvenating Pill without Charlie’s approval.After all, Charlie had expressly reminded him not to tell anyone else about this matter just yesterday.However, Lord Moore had already guessed it himself. Therefore, Anthony was placed in a very tough spot. When he saw the look on Lord Moore’s face, Anthony could only reply awkwardly, “Brother Moore, you guessed this on your own. Please do not tell Mr. Wade
Chapter 548
Just when Lord Moore had already made up his mind, Anthony suddenly asked, “Brother Moore, where are you feeling unwell today?”Lord Moore put his thoughts away before he looked at Anthony and said, “Brother Simmons, just take a look at me now. My body and health are worsening day by day. Since it is autumn and the weather is getting a little colder, I have recently caught a cold because I did not pay too much attention to my own health. This is the reason why I decided to come and ask you to prescribe some medicine for me today.”Anthony hurriedly replied, “Let me check your pulse for you first to see what is wrong with your body.”Lord Moore nodded before he stretched out his hand.Anthony placed his finger on Lord Moore’s wrist as he checked his pulse and looked at Lord Moore’s other conditions. After that, he heaved a sigh of relief when he discovered that the latter was only infected with a cold.“It is just the chills and a slight cold. I will prescribe some medicine for you

Later that afternoon, at the Moore family mansion.Donald and Sean had already selected some gifts in advance before heading to the Moore family mansion.Lord Moore knew that the father and son from the Webb family were at Aurous Hill, but he also knew that something had happened to the youngest son of the Webb family. Therefore, he did not expect them to come and visit him so soon.However, since both the eldest son and eldest grandson of the Webb family were here, Lord Moore was naturally very polite, and he came out to entertain the both of them in person.At this time, Donald and Sean were both sitting opposite Lord Moore in the living room, and Oscar was serving tea and snacks to everyone as they all chatted happily together.Donald presented Lord Moore with a lot of gifts and also shook hands with Lord Moore as he said, “Uncle Moore, I have not seen you in such a long time! I did not expect you to look so strong and healthy at this age. I really envy you, Lord Moore!”Lord

Lord Moore nodded before he said, “Yes, the wealthy and powerful families believe in Feng Shui and the eight characters. This is the essence of our ancestry. As for the dregs in Southeast Asia, I really do not have any respect for them whatsoever.”Donald said, “From this point of view, it seems as though we really cannot find any clues leading to this matter at all. In this case, it is not easy for us to find the culprit behind this incident!”After that, Donald clasped his fists together before he said, “Uncle Moore, Sean and I will be staying in Aurous Hill for a few more days. We want to stay here to investigate and look for any relevant clues about my son’s sudden illness. Uncle Moore, if it is not inconvenient for you, can we stay at your house for a few days?”At this time, Lord Moore smiled before he said, “The Moore family has always had a good friendship with the Webb family. Why are you being so polite with me over this small matter? Since you are already here, I will nat

”Absolutely not?!”Donald would never have expected Lord Moore to turn down his request just like that.It seemed as though Lord Moore did not even think about it before turning down his request.Why?Why?!The Webb family was wealthier and more powerful than the Moore family. His son was even the eldest grandson of the Webb family. To put it bluntly, he was the most outstanding young man in the whole South Region.There were so many girls from many different big and powerful families who were waiting to get involved with Sean, even trying to take the initiative to get closer to him!They were giving the Moore family face simply by saying that they had taken an interest in Jasmine!After all, the Moore family would be using the Webb family to climb up in status!Lord Moore had ten thousand reasons to agree to the marriage proposal, but he should not have any reasons to turn it down!Yet, it seemed as though Lord Moore had turned down the marriage proposal without any hesitati
Chapter 552
In these wealthy and powerful families, the girls would often get engaged when they were twenty years old.Moreover, most of them would get married as soon as they graduated from college at the age of twenty-two or twenty-three years old.Therefore, Donald was hoping for Lord Moore to mention this matter directly to Jasmine. He was also hoping that Lord Moore would directly ask Jasmine to accept the marriage proposal.Most of the girls in these wealthy and powerful families were all aware of these family arrangements for marriage. As long as the elders in the family made the arrangements, the younger generation would naturally obey them.Lord Moore did not expect Donald to continue persisting even though he had already declined the marriage proposal directly.Therefore, he could only chuckle and wave his hand as he said, “To be honest, Jasmine is still very young, and I do not wish for her to be married yet. After all, her elder brother is not even married yet.”At this time, Don

Donald was a little annoyed by this unexpected response.He thought that Lord Moore would agree to his marriage proposal without hesitation and immediately accept his son as their family’s son-in-law.However, Lord Moored had rejected his proposal over and over again!Humiliation and confusion filled Donald’s mind.Sean was equally frustrated and said, “Lord Moore, why don’t you want Jasmine to marry me? Our Webb family is the number one family in the South Region. Even in this country, how many could dare say that they are better than me, Sean Webb?”Lord Moore smiled gently at him and said, “Of course, Young Master Webb is a very excellent gentleman, but you can’t force feelings to grow out of nowhere. You can take a horse to the water, but you cannot make him drink.”For Lord Moore, it was hard for him to be too harsh against the father and son who did not have a clear conscience of the matter, so, he could only beat around the bush and try to talk sense into them.Sean snort

Lord Moore nodded lightly as Donald and Sean exchanged glances.Sean could see what his father was trying to say through his eyes—he was encouraging him to approach Jasmine personally about the marriage proposal.After a while, Jasmine came into the house. She was a little surprised to see Donald and Sean at her house, however, she quickly composed herself and greeted them politely.Donald smiled and said, “Hi, Jasmine. Your grandfather and I were just talking about you.”Jasmine asked in astonishment, “Talking about me? May I know what’s the agenda?”Sean looked at Jasmine intensely and said, “Jasmine, we’ve known each other since we were kids, so we can be regarded as half childhood sweethearts, right? Besides, our families have been friends for decades, so we wish to cement old ties by marriage. Hence, I asked my father to come and offer a marriage proposal to your grandfather, and he said to respect your decision. May I know if you would give me a chance?”Jasmine stuttered a
