The Amazing Son-in-Law: Chapters 271-275

Chapter 271

After returning home, Charlie Wade dismissed his encounter with Loreen. However, after calming down, he remembered that he hadn't yet refined the medicine he'd promised Anthony Simmons and the Moore family. For them, the medication was the most fantastic medicine imaginable. In Charlie Wade's opinion, it was a common formula from the Apocalyptic Book. If he could refine the more potent medicines described in the book, he wondered if they could resurrect the dead or grant immortality.

Despite their potential, these potent drugs required rare and exotic ingredients, some of which he'd never encountered. Many also required Reiki for refinement. He was a novice in medicine and had a long way to go, so he needed to proceed cautiously.

He was willing to refine the medicine for them to gain experience and improve his skills. He lacked the necessary ingredients, but obtaining them was the Moore family's responsibility, as they had requested his services. He called Jasmine.

Jasmine had been considering how to connect with Charlie Wade and spend more time with him. Her grandfather had said that whoever married Charlie Wade would see their family prosper. He felt Charlie Wade was wasted on an insignificant family like the Wilsons. The best match would be with a prominent family; only the most prestigious family was worthy of such a son-in-law. How could a godlike figure be with a commoner?

Her grandfather's words resonated. The more she thought about it, the stronger her feelings for Charlie Wade became. She wanted to call, meet, and communicate with him more often, but feared he might find her too forward.

Jasmine was a proud and elegant woman, considered the belle of Aurouss Hill. Other families' daughters paled in comparison. She was beyond the reach of Aurouss Hill's men. Charlie Wade was the first man to stir her feelings. He was a married man, a live-in son-in-law—a paradox. She questioned how to approach him.

As she thought of Charlie Wade, his call came! She shrieked with excitement. Her voice trembled slightly as she answered, "Hello, Master Wade, how can I help you?"

Charlie Wade chuckled softly, "Miss Moore, I plan to refine the medicine tomorrow but need some ingredients. I hope you can help me obtain them."

Jasmine was thrilled that Charlie Wade was finally making the medicine. The Moore family had eagerly awaited it, but hadn't dared to pressure him. He'd promised it freely; they couldn't rush him.

Jasmine quickly said, "Don't worry, Master Wade. Send me the list, and I'll find the highest-quality ingredients and send them to you!"

Chapter 272

"That's great, thanks!" Charlie Wade said with a smile. "Remember to send extra; I have other uses for them."

He had the money to buy the ingredients but needed a reliable network. Fine medicinal ingredients were like rare antiques—difficult to acquire. For precious items, money wasn't the primary concern, but access was. His Aurouss Hill connections were shallow compared to the Moore family's influence. They had reliable sources.

After ending the call, Jasmine received Charlie Wade's ingredient list and immediately called Graham Quinton.

The Quinton family, though not as famous as the Moores, specialized in antiques, relics, and Chinese herbal medicine. Even Charlie Wade didn't know Graham was the largest distributor of medicinal ingredients in the southern region, as he dealt directly with manufacturers and pharmacies, wholesaling, not retailing.

Jasmine recited Charlie Wade's list. "Mr. Quinton, can you obtain these ingredients for me? I need the highest quality in large quantities!"

Upon hearing the items, he asked, "Miss Moore, are these ingredients for Master Wade?"

"Yes," Jasmine admitted, given their friendly relationship. "Mr. Quinton, you know Master Wade saved my grandfather's life. He generously gave us a miraculous medicine, so I'm preparing the ingredients for him."

"No problem, Miss Moore! I'll have them ready and send them directly to Master Wade."

"Miss Moore, since we're friends, I'll be honest. I'd also like to ask Master Wade for a miraculous potion for emergencies when I send him the ingredients."

Jasmine considered. Even if she didn't let Graham deliver them, he would approach Charlie Wade anyway, so she might as well help.

She chuckled, "Oh, I see. Of course. Mr. Quinton, please double-check before sending the ingredients to Master Wade. I don't want any mistakes!"

"Haha, definitely, Miss Moore! I'll give Master Wade only the best!"

"Okay then. Please prepare and deliver the ingredients to Master Wade. Thank you very much!"

Graham practically squealed after ending the call. His daughter, Aurora, asked, "Daddy, what are you doing? You're so weird."

Graham laughed, "Good news! It's Master Wade!"

"What is it?"

"Master Wade is making a miraculous potion! Miss Moore asked me to prepare ingredients for him. I'm going to ask him for one too!"

Chapter 273

Since her lesson from Charlie Wade, Aurora understood the importance of humility. Learning about his extraordinary abilities, she felt appreciation and regret. She was ashamed of her previous challenge, unaware of his power. Strong women like herself were drawn to powerful men who could control their spirit.

Aurora now viewed Charlie Wade as her greatest idol. Hearing he was making a potion, she exclaimed, "Wow, I didn't know Master Wade could make medicine! That's incredible!"

Graham sighed, "Honestly, I don't know how powerful Master Wade is! We've only seen glimpses! I heard that even Dr. Anthony Simmons admired his medical skill! His old injury improved greatly thanks to Master Wade's medicine!"

"Oh my goodness!"

Aurora was shocked. She knew something of traditional Chinese medicine, and Anthony Simmons was a top master in the country. Getting an appointment was extremely difficult, even for prominent figures. She never expected the young Master Wade was not only proficient but recognized by a master like Anthony!

Aurora felt intense admiration for Charlie Wade. A man with his abilities was the perfect partner, especially for a strong woman like herself. She would willingly submit to such a man.

Graham noticed Aurora's blush and realized she had a crush on Charlie Wade. He cleared his throat, "Aurora, I'll return to the office to get the ingredients. You'll send them to Master Wade tomorrow morning."

"Me?" Aurora asked. "Why me? Didn't you say you wanted to go?"

Graham chuckled, "You're about the same age as Master Wade, it's easier for young people to get along. Honestly, though Master Wade is powerful, he's very unassuming and has been the Wilson family's live-in son-in-law for years."

Aurora responded, "If they love each other, why would he marry into the family?"

Graham sighed, "That's where Master Wade is enigmatic! I heard he and Claire Wilson haven't consummated their marriage; he sleeps on the floor!"

"What?!" Aurora was surprised. "They let Master Wade sleep on the floor they're too much"

"That's because they don't know how amazing he is! I think it might be a way for him to cultivate his power. Many practice asceticism."

"Oh, I see. Master Wade is truly outstanding!"

Chapter 274

Graham said earnestly, "Darling, soon, Master Wade will be so powerful that he'll soar like an eagle! Families across the nation will curry favor with him. They'll send their most beautiful daughters to him! You must seize this opportunity when you deliver the ingredients!"

Aurora flushed. "Daddy, what are you talking about I don't understand"

"Yes, you do," Graham teased. "I can see you admire him greatly, don't you?"

Aurora lowered her head shyly.

Graham continued, "I suspect a master like Master Wade won't stay with the Wilsons for long. You can start developing your feelings! If our family gets Master Wade as a son-in-law, our fortune will prosper! We'll achieve our forefathers' ambitions and make the Quintons the top family in the nation!"

Aurora trembled. Her father was right. This wasn't just about love; this was about changing their family's fortune. It was a priceless opportunity!

Many families rose and fell within a century. The Quintons were the last! If they could leverage Charlie Wade's success, they would flourish. This was an exceptional opportunity that might not come again! The chance had fallen into their hands. Marrying his daughter to Charlie Wade could change their fortune!

She said, "Papa, prepare the ingredients! I'll deliver them to Master Wade tomorrow!"

Graham said, "Wear a nice dress and some makeup. You're a lovely woman. Dress up!"

Aurora blushed but responded, "Dad, don't worry, I won't let you down!"

"Tomorrow, tell Master Wade the Quintons value him and will always be at his service. Tell him we've been in the medicinal ingredient business for a century. Whenever he needs anything, he can tell us, and we'll fulfill his orders! Also, ask him if he can give us a magical elixir. I think he won't refuse your request."

Chapter 275

The next morning, Charlie Wade received a call from Aurora. Her flirtatious voice said, "Master Wade, are you home?"

"Yes, I am. Why? How can I help you?"

"My father asked me to deliver medicinal ingredients, per Miss Moore's request. Is it a good time for me to visit?"

Claire Wilson was at work, and Jacob and Elaine were out. Charlie Wade was alone, so he said, "Okay, come then."

"Okay! I'll be there soon!"

Minutes later, Charlie Wade heard a knock. He opened the door to see Aurora in a beige dress, her hair cascading over her shoulders, her cheeks flushed. She looked incredibly attractive, carrying heavy luggage.

"MasMaster Wade, hello II'm Aurora Quinton, do you remember me?" Aurora stuttered, nervous.

She'd tossed and turned all night, her father's words about Master Wade's importance constantly on her mind. She was a young woman who wanted a handsome, wealthy, and capable husband. She realized there was no one on the same level as Charlie Wade!

Charlie Wade didn't understand her nervousness. He remembered her as the spirited young woman who'd challenged him. He asked, "What's wrong today? Why are you so different?"

Aurora mumbled, "Master Wade, I regret being so oblivious and pompous last time, I hope you can forgive me"

Charlie Wade smiled. "Wow, great." He turned, "Don't just stand by the door, come in."

Aurora nodded anxiously and carefully dragged the luggage inside. Charlie Wade was surprised; the luggage seemed very heavy.

He asked, "What's in the luggage? Why is it so heavy?"

"These are the medicinal ingredients my father prepared for you. They're high-grade ingredients you can't find elsewhere!"

She put the luggage down and opened it.
