The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

When Christian saw Jasmine, he smiled humbly and said, "Hello, Miss Jasmine, nice to meet you again. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to meet me."

Jasmine said with a smile, "You're welcome."

After saying that, Jasmine invited Christian to sit down in the sofa area. She then sat across from him and asked curiously, "Mr. Christian, I wonder why you're here to see me this time?"

Christian hurriedly said, "Miss Jasmine, I've always felt embarrassed because I acted rashly and broke the rules of the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill last time. I came here today to specifically express my gratitude and to also apologize to both you and the owner of the Rejuvenating Pill."

Jasmine smiled and said, "Mr. Christian, you didn't have to come all the way here to apologize. The auction house already responded and dealt with your behavior during the incident back then, and you've already paid the corresponding price for your action. Thus, there's no need for you to apologize again."

Christian secretly smacked his lips. He did not expect that it would be so hard for him to get through to Jasmine. He wanted to take the initiative to apologize which was already a sign of inferiority, but Jasmine refused to even give him the chance to lower himself at all.

In truth, Jasmine genuinely respected Christian. This respect had nothing to do with his status as the eldest son of the Ackers, but simply because he was Charlie's uncle.

Jasmine had long felt that there was nothing that she could do in return for Charlie, so she naturally had to respect Charlie's elders even more.

However, Charlie did not plan to be reunited with the Ackers yet, so Jasmine did not dare to be overly polite toward Christian. After all, Christian knew that he had to remain humble in front of Jasmine as well because of what had happened at the previous auction for the Rejuvenating Pill. Therefore, if Jasmine were to treat him too politely. Christian would definitely notice something abnormal.

Christian did not dare to show any anger or displeasure at the moment. He could only smile complacently as he said, "Miss Jasmine, to tell you the truth, I've always admired the owner of the Rejuvenating Pill. I acted a little too hastily and was a little rude at the auction before this because I needed to get an effective medicine to treat my father who was seriously ill back then. I hope that you can help me explain this matter to him and help me ask for his forgiveness, Miss Jasmine."

Jasmine smiled and said, "Mr. Christian, you're overthinking it. What you broke that day was merely the rules of the auction, and it has nothing to do with him. The logic is just like how traffic rules are set by the traffic control department, but if you hit someone when you're driving, you don't need to report this matter to the traffic control department or obtain their forgiveness."

Christian felt like he was a ball that was being kicked back to its original place repeatedly. After repeated attempts, he finally mustered the courage and said, "Miss Jasmine, to tell you the truth, I have something that I want to confirm with the owner of the Rejuvenating Pill in person. I hope that you can introduce him to me. The Ackers will remember your kindness regardless of whether he will be willing to meet me or not!"

Jasmine pursed her lips, smiled, and said seriously, "Mr. Christian, it's not that I don't want to help you. It's just that the gentleman whom you want to meet has already left Aurous Hill since the last auction."

"Left Aurous Hill?!" Christian hurriedly asked, "Miss Jasmine, do you happen to know his name?"

Jasmine shook her head and said, "I don't know his name."

Christian asked doubtfully, "Miss Jasmine, this gentleman collaborated with Moore Group, and you auctioned his Rejuvenating Pill on his behalf, even collecting a huge sum of money from the sale for him. How can you now know his true identity when you're working so closely together? Miss Jasmine, the Ackers will definitely do our best to repay the favor if you can give us some clues!"noveldrama

Jasmine replied, "Mr. Christian, the gentleman is very mysterious, and I do not know his whereabouts. The Moores were lucky enough to be chosen by him to organize the auction for the Rejuvenating Pills, so how can we implore him to reveal his true identity when we are already so blessed and fortunate? As for the funds that you mentioned from the auction, would you believe me if I told you that the money is still in the auction account and he has not taken the money away at all?"
