Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 77 Discrete Thoughts

Jasmine Xander analyzed, “If Annalise Barton has a way to obtain more Energizing Pills, it would imply that Julian

can obtain more as well. An Energizing Pill is worth a lot.”

Megan Smith rolled her eyes and interrupted, “So what? I asked Abigail about the Energizing Pill. It costs more than

450 thousand dollars per pill. A jar of a dozen Pills is only about 7.5 million dollars. To ordinary people, that might be

a sum they will never be able to earn, but for the Parks family, it’s nothing. Perhaps Julian will not rely on selling

medicine to establish his power?”

Timothy looked at Megan as if he was looking at a fool and said. “That’s not what Jasmine meant. What she meant

was that if Julian obtained the source of the Energizing Pill, he could use the pills to win people over.”

Just looking at the people around them, Old Madam Blake’s health had always been poor. The Energizing Pill could

increase her life span for a few more years. Would she then not be grateful to Julian? Would she not support Julian?

Among the top ten wealthy families of Jadeborough, which one of them didn’t have an elderly whose health was

worrying? Old Mr. Jones had been paralyzed in bed since half a year ago. It was said that he had even lost control of

his feces and urine.

“There’s also the old lady of the Zeller family. She’s not in good health either.”

Everyone fell silent, and their expressions became solemn.

Albert said solemnly, “Timothy is right. If Julian can grasp the source of the Energizing Pill, he can win over the

hearts of the entire Jadeborough. He can completely stabilize his position as the Parks Group’s leader. When that

happens, he will be legitimate and have people on his side. Who then will be his match? Hence…” Timothy and his

brothers looked up at Albert in unison. “So, we have to find the source!”

Albert nodded heavily. “Yes!”

Timothy frowned. “I’m afraid Annalise Barton won’t share such information with us.”

“You don’t have to worry much about that.” Jackson suddenly laughed.

Everyone turned to Jackson.

Jackson said, “We overheard it at that time. Annalise Barton doesn’t have the other party’s contact information at

all. It was just a coincidence that she saved someone and they gave her a jar of pills as a thank-you gift. If she has

their contact information, Julian would have made a move long ago. Why would he wait until now?”

Everyone nodded and praised Jackson for his deduction.

Megan loved to play devil’s advocate. She rolled her eyes and asked, “What if Annalise Barton does know that old

man who knows how to refine elixir pills?”

Jackson replied confidently, “If Annalise Barton really knew an old man who knows how to make pills, Julian would

definitely bring Samuel to seek medication immediately. Why would he wait until now? Who doesn’t know that

Samuel has high blood pressure and coronary heart disease? His lungs are also not good, and he often gets choked

with phlegm. His health is so poor it’s as if he will pass away any moment.”

*Julian was brought up by Samuel single-handedly and his feelings for Samuel are even deeper than those for his

father. Even more fundamentally, the benefits of Samuel being alive are not to be underestimated. If Annalise

Barton knew the old man who refined elixir pills, Julian would have made a move.”

Albert nodded and praised, “Jackson’s analysis is on point. I’m very gratified that you have such exquisite thoughts.

I’m relieved that you guys have grown up well. When brothers are united, their combined strength will be able to

overcome anything. As long as the three of you are united, I believe that our family will become the final winner.”

Hearing Albert praises his third brother, Timothy looked at Jackson strangely.

Timothy said, “Grandpa, Annalise Barton said at the banquet today that she met that old man in Jadeborough.

According to my understanding. Annalise Barton grew up in the countryside and was brought to Horington by the

Barton family last year. I suspect that she never went to Jadeborough at all. She might have lied. That old man is

very likely to have met her in Horington.”

Albert nodded. “Your analysis is reasonable.”

Timothy continued, “Jackson, make the trouble and personally visit Horington tomorrow to ask around if there are

any old men with especially good medical skills. If there are, find them.”

The Energizing Pill was no small matter. If someone really knew how to refine it, there was a high chance. that that

person was the retired medical expert, Master Quigley.

“I’ve already gotten someone to collect Master Quigley’s videos and photos. When the time comes, we might be

able to confirm it through comparison.”

Timothy felt that he should send Jackson further away. Otherwise, it might affect his status in Albert’s heart.

“Alright!” Jackson agreed readily.

Timothy continued, “Robert, I heard that Master Quigley’s disciple, Jonathan Woods, is returning to the country.

Keep an eye on him and see which hospital he joins. No matter what, maintain a good relationship with him first.

Also, ask him if the person who knows how to refine elixir pills is Master Quigley.”

“Alright,” Robert replied.

Albert watched as his grandson arranged everything in an orderly manner. He praised, “I’m relieved to see that

you’re so capable. When the time comes, with Christopher’s support, everything will go even smoother.”

In another residence.

Christopher scolded Jessy. “You incompetent thing. Even Magan knows not to spread such rumors. You’re the only

stupid one poking your nose in everything. It’s as if Abigail Barton is not enough and you have to get involved in this

mess.”

It was a depressing day for Jessy. She lowered her head and said gloomily, “Didn’t you say that you wanted me to

build a good relationship with Abigail? You also said that the best way to build a good relationship with someone is

to cater to their preferences. Didn’t you tell me that pandering to Abigail’s liking was to spread rumors about

Annalise Barton?

“Besides, I’m not spreading false rumors. Before she met Julian, she did have a boyfriend whom she dated for a

long time! What era are we in now? Who would not have moved in with their partner after dating for a year?”

“You still dare to say that? I’ll beat you to death!” Christopher was so angry that he was fuming. He raised his

walking stick and pointed it at Jessy. “How did your mother give birth to such a thing like you? I’m so angry.” Jessy

pouted in anger and muttered gloomily, “I’m mad too. I still have to go back to school tomorrow. Although I’ve

clarified it, will the way they look at me be normal? I don’t even know how to face it. Just thinking about it makes

me so annoyed. I’m so angry that I’m about to explode.”

The only thing she was glad about was that her idol was not in school.

Christopher let out a long sigh and encouraged his two grandsons. “James, Jacob, the two of you are already. in

your twenties. I don’t expect you to be as outstanding as Julian or Timothy, but I hope you can be mindful when you

date and find someone with suitable family background.”

He then said to his son, Jessy’s father, “We’re not as capable as Albert’s and our position is not as high as Samuel’s.

We don’t have the advantage on both sides and are destined to not be in power. However, we have to take sides

and that is not easy. The situation isn’t clear now, so we’re not in a hurry to take sides. We’ll take it one step at a

time, but everyone can’t be dispirited.

“Right now, there’s something very important for you to do. It’s not feasible to find the old man Annalise Barton

mentioned. That’s equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack. Instead, keep a close eye on the return of Master

Quigley’s eldest disciple, Jonathan Woods. The moment he returns to the country, find him immediately and build a

good relationship with him.”
