The Amazing Son-in-Law: Chapters 1186-1190 (Revised)

Chapter 1186

Charlie Wade was surprised to see Jasmine. He'd always thought her appearance and figure were comparable to his wife, Claire Wilson, and that her aristocratic demeanor surpassed Claire's. After all, Jasmine was the eldest daughter of a prominent family, raised with impeccable etiquette.

Jasmine, visibly excited, shyly greeted him, "Master Wade, you're here."

Charlie Wade smiled. "Miss Jasmine, why didn't you tell me about your birthday?"

Jasmine apologized, "Master Wade, I'm sorry. I didn't want you to feel obligated to buy a gift."

Charlie Wade chuckled. "We're friends. I would have gotten you a gift regardless. In fact," he produced a small, carefully wrapped box from his pocket, "I already have one."

Jasmine's heart leaped with joy. This was the first birthday gift from her beloved. She gratefully accepted it, "Master Wade, thank you so much for the gift."

Charlie Wade replied, "You're welcome."

His words made Jasmine's heart flutter. Paul, standing nearby, also presented a gift box. "Miss Moore, happy birthday."

Jasmine smiled and asked Paul, "You told Master Wade about my birthday, right?"

Paul confirmed, "Yes, I was with Master Wade when he called."

Surprised, Jasmine asked, "You do business with Master Wade?"

Paul smiled, "I'm Master Wade's lawyer and legal counsel."

Charlie Wade added, "And he works pro bono."

Jasmine was curious, "What legal matters do you need help with, Master Wade?"

"I recently acquired a company," Charlie Wade explained, "Paul is helping with some legal details."

Jasmine nodded. "Master Wade, let's go inside. There are many guests."

"Very well."

They entered the Moore family villa, where the grand hall had been transformed into a lavish banquet hall with a live jazz band. Charlie Wade saw many acquaintances, including Jasmine's cousin, Rueben, whom he chose to ignore. Other guests included Cameron Isaac, Mr. White, Don Albertt, Dr. Simmons and his granddaughter Xyla, Mr. Quinton and his daughter Aurora, Travis Lane (Lancaster's richest man), and even Doris Young from the Emgrand Group. It seemed Jasmine had invited close friends.

Chapter 1187

The guests at Jasmine's birthday party were actually anticipating Charlie Wade's arrival. Everyone knew about the recent conflict between Charlie Wade and the Webb family. Charlie had even publicly broken Sean Webb's hand at Lord Moore's birthday banquet, an act followed by Cameron Isaac breaking the father and son's legs. The Webbs had retreated to Southaven in disgrace.

Many had worried that Charlie Wade couldn't compete with the Webb family's wealth. However, the Webb family's downfall was swift and dramatic. Their reputation was ruined by the Beggar Gang; they repeatedly sent assassins to Golim Mountain, failing each time; and finally, their "Eight Heavenly Kings" were killed. The Webb family was no longer a first-class family, far weaker than the Moores.

Although there was no proof, everyone suspected Charlie Wade was responsible. Only he possessed such power. Cameron Isaac, having witnessed Charlie Wade eliminate the Eight Heavenly Kings on Golim Mountain, considered him a god.

Cameron Isaac approached Charlie Wade, nearly bowing in reverence. The events on Golim Mountain had profoundly impacted him. He politely addressed Charlie as "Master Wade."

Doris Young, wearing a striking silver dress, approached next. In Charlie Wade's memory, she was always a professionally austere woman; today, however, she was stunningly sexy. Although she knew Charlie Wade's identity as the Wade Family Master, she was unfamiliar with his "Master Wade" persona. She politely greeted him, "Mr. Wade."

Charlie Wade nodded, complimenting her appearance. Doris Young blushed, inviting him to the Emgrand Group. Charlie Wade blushed, aware of his negligence toward the company.

Chapter 1188

Charlie Wade rarely visited the Emgrand Group, delegating everything to Doris Young. Understanding her desire for his presence, he playfully replied, "For such a beautiful Ms. Young, I will frequently visit the Emgrand Group!" Ms. Young blushed deeply.

Dr. Simmons and Xyla then approached. Xyla looked at Charlie Wade with tenderness and a hint of disappointment, feeling he'd neglected them lately. Dr. Simmons, however, was overflowing with gratitude for the Rejuvenation Pill, bowing respectfully. "Master Wade, it's been some time. How are you?"

Charlie Wade politely inquired after Anthony (Dr. Simmons' son), receiving effusive thanks from the doctor.

Aurora, noticing Charlie Wade's arrival, blushed deeply. She harbored a deep affection for Charlie Wade, dreaming of him frequently. Her love stemmed from his rescue of the Quinton family and his act of generosity by providing her with two Rejuvenation Pills. Charlie Wade’s protection of her friend, against the Webb family’s heir, cemented her admiration. Running to him, she shyly greeted him, "Master Wade, I've been waiting for you."

Chapter 1189

Aurora, usually bold, was overwhelmed with shyness. Charlie Wade smiled, "Aurora, it's good to see you. How have you been?"

Aurora, blushing, replied, "Very well, thank you, Master Wade."

Charlie Wade addressed the assembled guests, suggesting they enjoy themselves at Miss Moore's birthday celebration. Jasmine briefly excused herself to greet more guests. Charlie Wade agreed and was soon surrounded by well-wishers.

Noticing Aurora's hesitation to speak, Charlie Wade asked, "Aurora, is there something you want to say?"

Aurora, overjoyed, asked for a private conversation. Charlie Wade, having a good impression of Aurora, invited her for a stroll in the courtyard.

Chapter 1190

Aurora, still shy, hesitated to speak. Charlie Wade playfully teased her, reminding her of her boldness in the past. She eventually confessed that she wanted to invite him to the International College Sanda Competition.

Charlie Wade recalled Liam's mention of Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals sponsoring the event to promote a new drug. Learning Aurora would be representing Chinese college students, he was impressed and asked if she felt confident of winning. Aurora expressed her ambition to place in the top three.

Charlie Wade encouraged her, emphasizing the importance of aiming high and believing in herself. He confidently predicted a first-place finish, urging her to win glory for China. Aurora asked if he would attend her match, and Charlie Wade readily agreed. Overjoyed, she almost hugged him, but stopped short.

Charlie Wade reminded her of the Rejuvenation Pills he'd given her family, and Aurora showed him the pill she kept close to her body. Charlie Wade advised her to take it if needed. Aurora expressed her gratitude and appreciation for his care.
