Chapter 56 Time To Witness A Miracle

“Having a barbecue, Julian replied indifferently.

Then, he took a bite of the meat.

He had no intention of inviting them to eat with him.

“You scared me. It’s good that it’s barbecue. We thought there was a fire.” Jane could only smile awkwardly when she saw Julian’s cold expression.

Abigail wanted to find an opportunity to resolve the misunderstanding between her and Julian, so she looked at Julian gently and said, “Julian, can we join you? We also want to experience the joy of barbecuing ourselves.”

She immediately tugged on Jessy, wanting her to speak up for her.

Jessy did not have a good relationship with Julian, so she did not want to stay for the barbecue. The environment was so simple, there was not even an air conditioner. It was so hot and suffocating. “Join? Are you even worthy?” Julian looked at Abigail in disgust.

Every time he saw her, his disgust for her only increased.

He had seen all kinds of people in his life.

The business world was full of deception, and the circle in Jadeborough was complicated. There were all kinds of people in the business world who did insidious and dirty things in the name of cooperation. There were also all kinds of women in the circle who approached him in various ways.

No matter how disgusting one was, no one could compare to Abigail.

How thick-skinned must she be to call him ‘Julian’ sweetly after he had told her to get lost again and again? She snatched Annalise’s boyfriend and messed around in the hotel, and the next second, she got together with Alexander. Now, she was trying to ingratiate herself with him.

Did he think that she was that charming?

Couldn’t she see how despicable she was?

Abigail was yelled at again. She immediately explained, “Julian, no matter what misunderstanding you had toward me previously, now that Alexander and I are married, we are considered family…”

“Get lost!” Julian was extremely disgusted and could not help but snap at her.

Abigail was embarrassed and immediately ran away.

She was so aggrieved that tears streamed down her face.

She was furious and full of regret!

She thought that Julian would not embarrass his two cousins in front of them.

She thought that as long as Julian agreed to let her join the barbecue, she would stay by his side gently and barbecue for him so that he could see how understanding she was.

He would see her sitting upright even when she was barbecuing-it would show how elegant she was. Unexpectedly, he was really an insensitive person and did not care about how his cousins felt.

Abigail rushed out. Jessy and Jane immediately left after greeting Julian.

They went to comfort Abigail.

Jessy said, “Abbie, Julian is a person with a high IQ but low EQ. To put it bluntly, he has high scores and low ability. Otherwise, their family would not be supporting Alexander, an illegitimate child!

Jane said, “Julian is too irritable. We have never liked to hang out with him ever since we were young. Abbie, don’t take it to heart. Don’t think about building a good relationship with him anymore. You’re Alexander’s partner, so you’re destined to be at odds with Julian.”

“Let’s go back,” Abigail said aggrievedly.

The three of them were no longer in the mood to continue gossiping and returned to their respective villas.

Abigail walked to the entrance of the villa and took a deep breath to recompose herself.

As soon as she walked through the door, she saw Alexander and his father sitting on the couch in the living room and drinking tea.

“Abbie, you’re back. Did you have fun with Jane and the others? It will be even livelier during Samuel’s birthday party.” Alexander smiled gently.

“Yes, I did,” Abigail responded.

Her eyes flickered and she said, “Alexander, Julian and Anna are barbecuing. I want to barbeque too.”

In fact, she wanted to complain to Tony, but she couldn’t do it directly.

As expected, when Tony heard that Julian was actually barbecuing with Annalise, he slammed his teacup on the table and said sternly. “They are getting more and more outrageous by the day. What’s going on? The dignified young master of the Parks family in Jadeborough is barbecuing with a country bumpkin in the house? What if people catch wind of this?”

He slapped his own face angrily. “If others find out, what would they think of us? I’d be humiliated!”

He looked at Abigail and asked, “Are they barbecuing now?”

“Yes,” Abigail said immediately.

“Bring me there!” Tony had already stood up.

Abigail pretended to look at Alexander uneasily.

Alexander said, “Take Dad there.”

Actually, he did not like his father targeting Annalise because he had always felt that it was a good thing for himself if Julian married Annalise.

However, he knew that although his father did not like Julian, he cared about his reputation.

“Okay,” Abigail replied and immediately led the way.

At the bungalow.

Annalise was extremely happy as she controlled the fire.

It felt so good to see Julian mocking Abigail!

Annalise really could not understand how such a stupid person like Abigail could exist in this world.

Abigail knew that Julian hated her, but she was still desperate to appear in front of him every day.

She didn’t know where Abigail got her confidence from.

There was really a kind of person in this world who usually looked quite smart, but when she met a man, she would instantly turn into a retard. Abigail always felt that all the men in the world would be

charmed by her and fall in love with her just by looking at her. It was hilarious.

“What are you laughing at?” Julian asked gently.

“Haha, it’s nothing. I just felt like laughing,” Annalise said.

“Here, I’ve grilled this. It tastes good.” Julian saw that Annalise was more relaxed than before and handed her barbecued meat.

“Thank you!” Annalise took the meat and started eating.

After taking a bite, her eyes lit up. “This is really good!”

Julian was encouraged by Annalise’s gaze and volunteered, “From now on, as long as you want to eat barbecue, I’ll be in charge of grilling.”

“Okay!” Annalise smiled.

She checked the fire, then got up and reached out to fan the steam coming out of the small hole in the clay pot toward her.

She sniffed hard and smelled the strong medicinal fragrance. She knew that she had successfully refined the pills today.

It would be done in another ten minutes. She immediately glanced at the time, then continued to control the

fire

Ten minutes later, Annalise got up and removed the lid of the clay pot.

Julian was very curious about this special method of brewing medicine. When he saw Annalise removing the lid, he immediately leaned over to watch.

He was stunned when he saw a dozen round brown pills lying in the clay pot.

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind: Alchemy!

It was something that only existed in ancient books. Many people even thought that it was only a legend and did not exist.

However, he had heard from Samuel that more than a hundred years ago, there was an Imperial Physician surnamed Quigley who really knew how to refine pills Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Although the elixir pills that were refined could not grant Immortality or cure all illnesses, they could prolong. life.

Samuel was certain because he once owned an elixir pill that was passed down by his ancestors.

When Samuel was about to die and the doctors asked the family to prepare for his funeral, he had taken the elixir pill and lived for another two years.

Seeing that Julian was in a daze, Annalise smiled and said, “This form of medicine is better than the liquid form, especially since people in the modern era live life at a fast pace. For example, if they have to go on business trips, it’s much more convenient to bring pills than tea bags filled with medicinal ingredients.”

“Is this alchemy?” Julian asked.

Just as she finished asking, she heard footsteps outside.

The footsteps were very hurried and heavy.
