Jeremiah could hear the many soft distinct murmurs buzzing around him.That raised his excitement even more. His delight came from the pill, but most of it was due to the limelight.The past saw the Wade family weakened in the eyes of the world, for they were forced to surrender a staggering half of their property to the Ten Thousand Armies. They were talked about, belittled, and ridiculed by outsiders.The memories of it upset Jeremiah greatly. How he wished he could announce to the world that the Wade family wasn’t devoured by the Ten Thousand Armies. Not at all! On the contrary, it was them who took over and dominated the Ten Thousand Armies!Despite that, Jeremiah knew full well that his amazing grandson Charlie had no plans to let this fact be known to any outsider. The true relationship between the Wade family and the Ten Thousand Armies would remain hidden, just as Charlie desired.Jeremiah would love nothing more than to brag the truth to the world, but his courage failed

The last full pill was the finale of the entire auction which everyone looked forward to.While many of them couldn’t compete for the last Rejuvenating Pill, they wanted to see who had the power and strength to rise as the winner. They also wanted to know the potential miraculous effects of a full pill. The staff soon brought the full pill on stage. Jasmine gestured at it and announced with a smile, “The last full pill for the Rejuvenating Pill will start bidding at ten billion US dollars. Every bid has to be at least a hundred billion US dollars higher. Those who are interested may start bidding!”As soon as Jasmine finished her sentence, Bernard raised his hand and made his bid at once.“I will place a bid of fifty billion!”Bernard knew the final price would be at least a dozen billion, particularly when the last quarter pill was already sold for thirty-eight billion and two hundred million US dollars. As such, he immediately raised the price as a warm-up.Jordan had waited t

Resentment flooded Jordan’s heart, coursing through his veins. He simply couldn’t fathom as to why Carlson would compete with him. The man was forcing him to the verge of collapse.Carlson clearly knew about Jordan’s circumstances. On top of that, they had been acquainted with each other for some time. Though they couldn’t be considered bosom friends, must Carlson act so ruthlessly? Jordan’s life would be coming to an end in perhaps just several days after this auction. If he missed his chance to acquire the pill, his life would be over.Carlson was only in his fifties. Why must he compete with Jordan so?If Carlson needed the Rejuvenating Pill, he could easily wait until the next year’s auction. Jordan felt that Carlson’s relentlessness was intended to kill him.Carlson, meanwhile, had his hands tied. He was quite helpless in facing the current predicament, but he had his own reasons despite knowing Jordan’s plight. As such, he had no choice but to continue competing for the p

Three hundred billion US dollars! Many in the hall almost fainted at the insane offer.However, their curiosity was roused. Who was Carlson? How was he able to pay so much money?Not only that, but he even offered an additional eighty billion US dollars just to take the pill with him. Was he buying the pill for someone else?!Jasmine began to panic. Charlie was the one who set the rule where the bidder must eat the pill immediately upon winning. However, Carlson’s offer came with an additional eighty billion US dollars. That alone had already exceeded the Moore family’s total net worth.That, and Jasmine couldn’t possibly make any decisions on Charlie’s behalf!In the control room, Isaac was completely stunned by Carlson’s offer. He turned to Charlie and gulped nervously, and asked with a stammer, “S-sir… This…What should we do…?”Charlie watched Carlson through the surveillance camera and smiled slightly. “Those who want to take the pill home only have two objectives. They eithe

Bernard was so emotional to hear that, he almost burst into tears there and then. He was eliminated early because of Jordan and Carlson. He didn’t expect that there was still hope left for him.He looked forward to seeing Jordan give up. The Rejuvenating Pill would be his if Jordan gave up purchasing rights. He also hoped Jordan wouldn’t be able to pay so that the pill could become his!On top of that, he wouldn’t have to pay any additional amount. He only needed to pay with the amount he made in his last bid earlier, which was only seventy-two billion US dollars.Thinking that, he changed his opinion on the organizer. Whoever he was, he wasn’t as horrible as Bernard once thought. On the contrary, his actions were reasonable and humane.Jordan had become emotional once more, on his way to a second breakdown. He ended up with a final bid of two hundred and ten billion earlier because of Carlson’s persistence. If Carlson didn’t join the bidding, would he have pushed the price up so h
