Chapter 358 358 It\'s a part of life
The morning sun streamed through the James family\'s luxurious dining hall, casting a warm embrace around the beautifully set breakfast table. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and a spread of delectable dishes filled the air.
Reaves, sporting a smart suit, exchanged a loving glance with Rosa as they sat down. Rosa, still basking in the afterglow of the previous night\'s escapades, couldn\'t help but throw subtle flattery at Reaves. "Reaves, that tie perfectly complements your eyes. You look irresistible."
Reaves chuckled, "Well, thank you, my love. Your compliments are the best way to start the day." Reaves, normally composed, found himself blushing under Rosa\'s affectionate gaze. In his mind, he couldn\'t help but marvel at the effectiveness of the elixir Madeline had provided and eagerly looked forward to thanking her and acquiring more.
Tiffany, observing the affectionate exchange between her father and stepmother, couldn\'t suppress a mischievous grin. "Looks like you two just got married or something. What\'s the secret?" she teased, adding a touch of humor to the familial atmosphere., "Are we in a romance novel or something? You guys are laying it on thick this morning." she said
Rosa winked at Tiffany, "Just keeping the love alive, sweetie. You\'ll understand when you\'re older."
Tiffany, playfully rolling her eyes, reached for the salt, "Sure, Mom. Maybe someday I\'ll find someone who makes my eyes twinkle over breakfast."
Reaves, ever the doting father, joined in the banter, "You\'ll find love when you least expect it, Tiff. Just like your mom and me."
Tiffany laughed, "Okay, enough of the love lessons. Let\'s talk about something else. Did anyone see the news today?"
Rosa, pouring herself a cup of coffee, replied, "I caught a glimpse. Anything interesting?"
Tiffany, with a mischievous grin, teased, "Well, there\'s a new cafe in town. Maybe we should check it out."
Reaves, sipping his coffee, chimed in, "Sounds like a plan. We can make it a family outing."
Rosa, adding a touch of practicality, suggested, "But don\'t forget, we have that dinner with the Johnsons tonight."
Tiffany, making a face, groaned, "Ugh, the Johnsons. Can\'t we just skip it? They\'re so boring."
Reaves, with a knowing smile, said, "Family obligations, Tiff. We can endure a dinner for the sake of harmony."
Reaves, changing the subject, suggested, "Speaking of relationships, Tiffany, maybe you should sweeten things with Mike. The James family could use his alchemical expertise."
Tiffany, with a scowl, retorted, "Dad, I can\'t stand that guy. He\'s just using you for favors."
Reaves, adopting a serious tone, advised, "Tiff, sometimes we have to wear masks for the greater good. Mike\'s skills can benefit us, and we need to maintain a good relationship."
Tiffany, revealing her frustration, muttered, "I hate this. Everyone wears masks, and it feels like nothing\'s real."
Rosa, attempting to lighten the mood, chimed in, "Oh, sweetheart, we all play our parts. It\'s the secret to surviving in a big family."
Tiffany, sighing, said, "I just wish I could be myself without feeling like I\'m pretending all the time."
Reaves, with a compassionate look, replied, "It\'s a part of life, Tiff. We wear masks to protect ourselves, but that doesn\'t mean we lose who we are."
------------------------------
Reaves couldn\'t contain his excitement as he eagerly anticipated the next gathering with his fellow male nobles. This exclusive meeting provided them a rare opportunity to delve into personal matters and share advice, setting aside business discussions and animosity for a day of relaxation and camaraderie.
As they convened, Reaves found himself wearing a constant grin, prompting his curious companions to inquire about the source of his newfound joy. "Hey Reaves, you seemed to have been grinning all day, do you have any goodness to share with us? One of the Nobles asked, "Yeah, what do you have to tell us" The others joined mouth with the first man.
"Actually I experienced something wonderful a few days ago" With an air of enthusiasm, Reaves revealed the secret to his recent bliss "As you all know it is an open secret that I don\'t last long while having sex with my wife but I came across an elixir, it not only gives me energy and stamina but it makes me last longer with my wife. It is called vitality elixir."
The revelation left his friends incredulous, prompting them to press for details on how such a transformation was possible "How is that possible, what is this elixir made of?" one of the nobles asked
"I don\'t know how it is possible or what it was made of but I am a living testimony for its incredulous work" Reaves replies enthusiastically.
"Where do you come across this Vitality elixir you claimed to cause this transformation with you" another curious noble asked.
Reaves proceeded to recount the unexpected encounter with Selina, "Selina visited me at my office one fateful afternoon, I thought she was there to discuss with me about the Russells\' land but that wasn\'t the case. She bestowed upon me the vitality elixir, assuring me that it held the key to satisfying my wife without any adverse effects. Initially, I was skeptical and angry that she came to find trouble with me, but she left the elixir assuring me of its work. I decided to give it a try, and the results surpassed my wildest expectations." he paused before continuing "I lasted over one hour with my wife, she climaxed countless times and I couldn\'t stop till she almost passed out" he finished his sentence and took a sip from his cup with satisfaction written all over his face.
As he shared this tale with the assembled nobles, the room buzzed with intrigue and interest. The vitality elixir became the focal point of the discussion among the upper echelons of society. If Reave\'s claim was true then men grappling with issues of impotence or premature ejaculation were eager to secure substantial quantities of this vitality elixir, hoping for a remedy to their intimate concerns. Even those already in good health seek to acquire it, they are lured by the promise of an enhanced and more pleasurable sexual experience.
Amidst the opulent setting of the nobles\' gathering, Reaves couldn\'t help but savor the attention and intrigue his revelation had garnered. His fellow nobles, a mix of curiosity and disbelief etched on their faces, bombarded him with questions about the mysterious elixir.
One of the lords close to him, a seasoned noble with a grizzled beard and an air of authority, voiced his skepticism, "Are you certain, Reaves? One elixir turning your marital life around sounds too good to be true."
