Chapter 278 I Made It Myself
Ever since Charlie was rescued by Alex, he settled at the Sakura Club.
“Charlie, look what I have for you?” Arriving in the backyard, Alex smiled as he held the bottle.

At that moment, Charlie was playing chess with himself. He had invited Flynn and the others to play with him but no one in the whole club knew how. Hence, he ended up playing alone to keep himself entertained.
As Charlie looked up and saw the bottle Alex was holding, he asked with a smile, “What do you have there?”
Keeping with the suspense, Alex just smiled and replied, “Try one first.”
Not having any doubts, Charlie took one and swallowed it.
“Charlie, how does it feel?” Alex asked in anticipation.
All he cared about now
as the pill’s effectiveness.
After some thought, Charlie replied, “It’s a little spicy.”
“Don’t you feel anything else?” Alex was doubtful.
“Erm… it feels just like swallowing an ordinary pill. I don’t feel anything special.” After pondering a moment longer, Charlie shook his head.
“It can’t be. How is it possible that there isn’t any reaction? Did I process it wrongly? Or did I make a mistake with the formula?” Frowning, Alex tried to recall the whole process but couldn’t find anything wrong.
Why is there no reaction?
“Wait here, let me go take a look.” Alex suspected that he had made a mistake with the formula. Hence, he was going to check the Nine Heaven Scrolls which was inside his car.
Just when he took a few steps, he heard Charlie exclaim in surprise, “Mr. Jefferson, I think I feel something…”
Shocked, Alex turned around, “What do you
feel?”
Charlie gave it some thought before he replied, “My organs feel warm… Hmm, that’s right. They feel
warm.”
“Mmm, that should be the pill dissolving and its contents starting to take effect.” Alex nodded and wanted to observe further before saying anything else.
“Charlie, is the heat increasing?” Flynn asked in curiosity.
“It feels as if it’s about forty degrees and no longer getting any hotter,” Charlie answered.
Alex couldn’t help but smile, “If it gets any hotter, you will self–combust.”
Charlie burst into laughter and asked, “Mr. Jefferson, what did you give me?”

Chapter 278 I Made It Myself
He was curious as to why Alex gave him a pill out of nowhere,
Of course, he wouldn’t suspect that Alex was trying to poison him.
“The Pill of Vitality. You probably haven’t even heard of it,” Alex replied with a smile.
Charlie shook his head to acknowledge that he hadn’t. He then asked, “What does it do?”
“Try and feel again.” Alex kept the suspense going.
