At this moment, Charlie viewed Jasmine as a dear friend and was ready to defend her with all his strength.


    Theodore and Reuben, on the other hand, were seething with rage.


    For years, they had been vying for the patriarch position, and they could not ept Jasmine being chosen for the role.


    However, they understood that reiming the heir position would lead to a fierce and brutal confrontation.<fnd352> For original chapters go to Find?Novel</fnd352>


    Thus, they needed to devise their strategy carefully. If they decided to take action, it had to be with a solid n for victory.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    During the birthday banquet, Jasmine was undeniably the most joyful person in the room.


    At this moment, her appreciation and affection for Charlie reached an all-time high.


    Being the intelligent woman she was, Jasmine was well aware of Charlie’s intentions in gifting her the Rejuvenating Pill.


    Who would benefit the most from such a pill? Naturally, it would be the elderly.


    At just 26 years old, Jasmine had no need for the Rejuvenating Pill, making it clear that its true purpose was to present it to her grandfather as a thoughtful gift.


    Her grandfather had a deep fascination for the Rejuvenating Pill, so the moment he learned that Charlie had given one to Jasmine, he must have been ecstatic, leading him to immediately consider handing over the family head position to her.


    In essence, Charlie had significantly aided her in realizing her dreams.


    With Jasmine now appointed as the patriarch of the Moore family, the atmosphere at the birthday banquet became even more grand and majestic.


    As the event was winding down, the staff wheeled in a massive birthday cake.


    Adorned with 26 lit candles, Jasmine stood in front of the cake as the lights dimmed, the flickering mes illuminating her stunning and charming features. She looked absolutely radiant.


    With her hands sped in front of her chest, she closed her eyes and silently made a wish.


    When she opened her eyes, her passionate gaze fell on Charlie.


    In that moment, she perceived Charlie as her sun, her moon, her sanctuary, her paradise.


    Unfortunately, Charlie remained oblivious to Jasmine’s gaze.


    As the lights faded and Jasmine was engulfed in darkness, he discreetly scrutinized Theodore and Reuben with his extraordinary vision.


    The instant the lights went out, the facade of calm that Theodore and Reuben had maintained shattered, revealing their cold and bitter expressions.


    It was challenging for them to suppress their animosity toward Jasmine in front of the guests, and the darkness allowed their true feelings to surface.


    When the lights flickered back on, the room erupted in apuse.


    Jasmine took it upon herself to slice two pieces of cake—one for her grandfather and the other for Charlie.


    With the cake served, the birthday celebration officially came to a close.


    It was a lively and cheerful asion for both the host and the attendees.


    The members of the Moore family who acknowledged Jasmine’s inheritance rights had no objections to her taking over.


    Only Theodore and Reuben harbored feelings of contempt and disdain regarding the decision.


    Once the banquet concluded, Paul, who sat at another table, approached Charlie and said respectfully, “Master Wade, may I escort you home?”
