For the Ackers, Charlie has saved them too many times and generously produced three Rejuvenating Pills one after another. Faced with this kindness, the Acker family members all deeply remembered it. Previously, the Ackers never owed anyone favors, but now, they owed Charlie a favor that they couldn't possibly repay. So, they all hoped that Charlie could accept the Ackers' assets. This way, they could also feel relieved in their hearts.
At this moment, Charlie spoke up, “Grandpa, I can promise to accept the Ackers's assets, but not right now. After all, in the eyes of the Qing Eliminating Society, they still don't know about my existence. If the Ackers transfer the assets directly to my name, my identity might be exposed on the same day. So, for now, please help me hold onto these assets. Once I've dealt with the Qing Eliminating Society, it won't be too late for you to give them to me then.”
Keith nodded gently when he heard this. He also knew that promises made verbally about assets were meaningless. To give money, it had to be transferred to the other party's account; to give shares or real estate, it had to be changed to the other party's name.
However, Charlie's identity was not suitable for exposure now. Therefore, the Ackers couldn't transfer the assets to his name right away. So, whether Charlie truly agreed or not, the part of the assets that the Ackers were prepared to give him would still have to be held by the Ackers.
Therefore, Lord Acker then said to Charlie, “Charlie, you should keep these two pills for now. When you've dealt with the Qing Eliminating Society and the Ackers has fulfilled our promise, you can give them to me without delay!”
Charlie shook his head and said, “Grandpa, just now you said the Rejuvenating Pills were my filial piety, and the assets were your heartfelt wish. These two things can't be compared at all. My filial piety isn't meant to exchange for your heartfelt wish. Why insist on waiting for your heartfelt wish to be fulfilled before accepting my filial piety?”
Christian couldn't help but advise, “That’s right, Dad. The Rejuvenating Pills are Charlie's filial piety to you and Mom. Why do you keep politely declining?”
