The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 2333

After Edmund had said that, he turned around and left the ward.

Doris trembled uncontrollably out of anger and frustration as she stared at Edmund's back as he left.

Her mother, Faith, walked forward with tears all over her face as she took Doris's hand. She choked up and said, "Forget it, Doris. Just give up. I cannot watch you jump straight into Edmund's trap just like that..." 3

Doris's eyes choked up, and tears began flowing down her face unknowingly as she said, "Mom! Dad does not have much time left now... If we cannot get this kidney source, perhaps within half a month..." 3 Faith slapped Doris's hand a few times. Although she was in a lot of pain and grief, she said resolutely," Your dad and I have already lived for more than fifty years now. Over the past fifty years, we have lived very full, happy, and prosperous lives. We are already very satisfied. So, even if your dad were to leave just like this, I would not have any regrets in my heart.

After all, the both of us have already tried our best..."

Doris choked as she said, "Mom... you have already tried your best, but I haven't... If I agree to Edmund's request, we will be able to prolong Dad's life. If I give up this time, I am afraid that I would live in guilt and

that I would be unable to extricate myself even decades from now. It is also highly possible that I would never be able to forgive myself until I take my last breath..."

Faith asked her again, "Doris, if you were to use this kind of method to save your dad, your dad might never be able to forgive himself for the next few decades either! You are going to save his life, but he will have to watch you live in deep distress and extreme misery every day for the rest of your life. This might be a fate crueler than death to him..." i

Doris hesitated for a moment before she sighed heavily and said, "Well... Mom... let me think about it and consider this matter again. We still have 24 hours to come to a decision. I will consider and think about it carefully first..."

Faith wanted to say something else, but she held back her words as soon as the words reached her lips.

At this time, she did not want anything she said to influence Doris's thoughts and her decision. After all, it would be painful for Doris regardless of either decision that she made. 2

When Charlie arrived at Graham's house, the other guests had not arrived yet.

The dinner banquet was set for seven o'clock at night, and it was not even two o'clock in the afternoon at this moment.

When Charlie drove and arrived at the villa, Graham was already waiting anxiously at the main entrance of the house with Aurora and Adam. 3

Graham was in a very good mood today. This was because Charlie had not only decided to host a dinner banquet at his house, but also because Charlie had promised to give him a Rejuvenating Pill. Charlie had refined two types of pills this time.

The first kind of pill was the Healing Pill that Charlie had initially refined and used to treat Jacob's illness. This kind of pill was relatively low-level, and it could easily cure all diseases and extend a patient's life to a certain extent. However, this kind of pill did not have the magical effect of making a person's body look and feel as though it was twenty years younger, like the Rejuvenating Pill. 6

What Charlie had planned was to give everyone a Healing Pill as a gift at the dinner banquet today.

Also, because Graham had asked Aurora to deliver a top-quality purple ginseng that was more than four hundred years old a few days ago, he had been able to refine another 30 Rejuvenating Pills. Therefore, Charlie was prepared to give Graham an extra Rejuvenating Pill.

After Charlie had stopped and parked the car, Graham hurriedly greeted him together with his daughter and nephew. He said respectfully, "Master Wade, you are here!"

The feisty young lady, Aurora, also said embarrassedly, "Welcome, Master Wade!" 5

Adam also followed suit as he said respectfully," Welcome, Master Wade!"

Charlie nodded slightly as he smiled and said, "Mr. Quinton, thank you for your hospitality since I chose to host the dinner banquet at your house today."

Graham hurriedly clenched his fists in front of him as he said, "Master Wade, you are too polite! It is an honor for me since you chose to hold the dinner banquet at my house today! Your presence alone already makes my villa even more brilliant and splendid!"

Charlie smiled slightly before he waved his hand and said, "Okay, we can just forgo the formalities and pleasantries. We shouldn't be talking about business either! Let's go inside and have a chat. I plan to give Aurora some guidance and pointers later in the afternoon."

As soon as Graham heard this, he smiled as he turned to the side to make way. After that, he made a respectful inviting gesture as he said sincerely," Master Wade, please!"

Charlie had already visited this Quinton family villa which was located by the lakeside before, i
