Chapter 3922
Jeremiah could hear the many soft distinct murmurs buzzing around him.
That raised his excitement even more. His delight came from the pill, but most of it was due to the limelight.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
The past saw the Wade family weakened in the eyes of the world, for they were forced to surrender a staggering half of their property to the Ten Thousand Armies. They were talked about, belittled, and ridiculed by outsiders.
The memories of it upset Jeremiah greatly. How he wished he could announce to the world that the Wade family wasn't devoured by the Ten Thousand Armies. Not at all! On the contrary, it was them who took over and dominated the Ten
Thousand Armies!
Despite that, Jeremiah knew full well that his amazing grandson Charlie had no plans to let this fact be known to any outsider. The true relationship between the Wade family and the Ten Thousand Armies would remain hidden, just as Charlie desired.
Jeremiah would love nothing more than to brag the truth to the world, but his courage failed him. He dared not breathe a peep of it.
For a very long time, he was forced to endure agonizing misery. Now, it was time for him to receive the fruits of his patience.
Naturally, he awaited the grand moment with ecstatic glee.
Meanwhile, Kathleen, who was alone in the private room on the second floor, was very much surprised and puzzled by the sudden turn of events.
She muttered softly to herself, "If Charlie wants to thank Jeremiah for the auction, there's no need for him to give away half a pill, is there? With the current trend, the crowd will go crazy if he suddenly puts the half pill on auction! He'd add tens of billions of US dollars profit to his project with ease. Why use half a pill to repay the Wade family's small favor?"
"If the Wade family only helped organize the auction, it doesn't seem like they helped Charlie a lot. Rather, Charlie was the one who helped the Wade family..."
"The Wade family now have the opportunity to build relationships with many wealthy men in the world. In the future, the wealthy and the powerful would struggle to curry favor with them just to get the Rejuvenating Pill."
"No matter how I look at it, it feels like Charlie wants to help the Wade family..."
"Could Charlie be related to the Wade family in any way?"

Kathleen furrowed her brows tightly as she pondered to herself, 'But I've investigated the Wade family. While Charlie's family name is Wade, there's no proof linking him to Eastcliffe's Wade family. Could he be a distant relative?'
'Is Charlie a distant relative to the Wade family? But then again, isn't he too strong? He can easily earn hundreds of billions of dollars just from tonight's auction. Even if he's just a distant relative, the Wade family will have to flatter him instead.'
Everything was so unambiguous that Kathleen couldn't figure out the answer at once.
Meanwhile, Jeremiah was already standing on the stage. He was thrilled to stand in front of a crowd of more than four hundred people.
The staff politely presented the pill to Jeremiah and explained with a tone of utmost respect, "Sir Wade, you may help yourself to the Rejuvenating Pill."
Jeremiah was startled at first, and then quickly returned to his senses. He hurriedly said, "Sure, alright! I'll help myself!"
Then, he carefully picked up the half pill under everyone's careful scrutiny.
When Jeremiah learnt that Yule Golding had fully recovered and even appeared younger by ten to twenty years after eating the pill, he looked forward to taking the pill.
At last, his wish finally came true.
Jeremiah had never been more ecstatic. Eagerly, he took the pill and quickly popped it into his mouth. He shut his eyes impatiently afterwards, excited to experience the pill's miraculous effects on his body.
However, the Rejuvenating Pill took effect much faster than he expected. In addition, he was in the peak of health and not at all sickly. Right after he swallowed the pill, it quickly spread throughout his whole body.

Jeremiah could sense the pill's warmth flowing in his body, but he had no idea about the transformation it brought to his physical form. The audience watched with widened eyes of shock as a part of Jeremiah's originally silver hair turned black again.
