Chapter 1063 Polygonum Multiflorum

A faint fragrance filled Alex’s nose the moment the box was opened. Alex tensed up in response and sniffed a few more times.

He had assumed he was imagining things at first, but his lips curled into a smile when he confirmed what the scent was. Walking up to the butler, he looked inside the box.

There was something black placed on top of a red cloth. The faint fragrance grew stronger as he got closer to it.

As the black thing had aged a lot and dried out over time, it had become all wrinkled up.

Alex beamed with delight when he got a clearer look at the black object.

His fingers were trembling with excitement as he turned toward Garett and asked, “Could you let me have this, Mr. Greaves? How about I trade you something in return? What would you like?”

There’s no mistaking it! That black thing is definitely a hundred-year-old polygonum multiflorum! I’can’t believe I’d find it in a place like this! If I can obtain this hundred-year-old polygonum multiflorum, then I will be able to

synthesize the Foundation Establishment Pill! That will help increase my power, even possibly allowing me to reach Grandmaster Realm!

Garett was shocked by Alex’s sudden change in attitude, but he felt glad that Alex would accept his family heirloom. There was no way he could bring himself to accept anything from Alex.

He then took the box over from the butter and handed it to Alex as he said, “I was planning to give this to you as a gift, to begin with. I’m just glad you like it, Mr. Jefferson. I couldn’t possibly ask you for

anything!”

If it had been anything else, Alex would not have accepted Garett’s gift, but he coul

say no to a polygonum multiflorum. As such, Alex decided to accept the gift witho further.

Of course, Alex wasn’t about to take it without offering something in return. “Just give n need my help, Mr. Greaves. I will be sure to assist you!”

Garett invited Alex to stay for dinner at the Greaves residence, but Alex declined that invitation an headed back to the hotel.

It was already past eight by the time he arrived. An apologetic look crossed his face when he saw Stanley watching television in the living room.

“I’m sorry for coming back late, Stanley. Here, I bought you some food!”

Stanley turned around excitedly when he heard that and threw himself at Alex. “You’re finally back, Daddy! I’ve missed you so much!” he said with a smile while clinging tightly to Alex’s leg.

Alex gave him an affectionate pat on the head as the two of them made their way over to the living room.

“I had a really boring day today, Daddy! I thought you were going to leave me here forever because you didn’t want me anymore!” Stanley exclaimed with a sad look in his eyes. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Alex felt somewhat guilty as he reassured Stanley, “Don’t worry, Stanley. I will do everything I can to keep you by my side. There’s no way I would ever leave your

Feeling a lot relieved after hearing that, Stanley broke into a smile and nuzzled against Alex’s chest.
