But Emily didn’t move. “Mom, what is happening? Who are these people? Why is he calling me his granddaughter?”Master Douglas, took another step closer, his cane striking the concrete with a sharp, deliberate tap. His eyes never left Deborah.“You would still lie?” His voice was quiet now, but the venom in it was unmistakable. “After all these years, after tearing my son from me, you would still dare deny me before his child?”Deborah glared at the old man, “What are you saying?” She exploded, “How did I take your son away from you, or weren’t you the one who sent us away?” “Don’t make me remember what I have forgotten, leave us alone. You aren’t welcome here. Go away.” She barked.At this time, Emily bit her lips; she felt confused, and she could only stare at the faces before her. “You got pregnant for my son because you knew his father was rich and you wanted a taste of his wealth. You even made Philip disrespect me.”Deborah gritted her teeth. She knew that, at this moment, she

Early the next morning, Aaron had called Asher to come pick the car up At that time, Asher had also prepared something to be delivered to Olivia Simpson.When Asher left the house, he had informed Isabella that he would be staying out late because he had a busy schedule for the day. And he also called Augustus to get ready because he would be going out with him.Augustus had agreed, and they had set up a location. However, Asher had taken a cab to meet Aaron, just as he arrived at the expected location. He stepped out of the cab and approached the man.“Good morning, Master Mancini.” He tilted his head slightly as he stepped away from the car and handed Asher the key.“Good morning, Aaron, how did it go?” Asher asked.Aaron hurriedly replied, “The car is better than, just a minor issue. You don’t have to pay me, I cleared the bill.” Asher paused for a moment. He knew Aaron was going to pay for it, which was why he stated that the bill should be sent to him. “How much is it?” He ask

Guests whispered as they watched the item set on display. Inside the transparent booth was a silver box, no larger than a loaf of bread. “Is that not the three sacred needles?" Someone whispered."I heard the three needles were once owned by the imperial physicians of the Han Dynasty." " It's also said to have the power to heal, and destroy depending on who wielded them.""Some called it the three sacred needles of meridian power.”The whispers grew louder as the auctioneer, Lora Hendrix, stepped forward, her presence commanding instant silence."Ladies and gentlemen,” she began. Her voice was as smooth as aged wine. "Today, we present an artefact so rare and extraordinary, before you a box containing the legendary, the three-edged needle, the electroacupuncture needle, and the fire needles. Each forged for a different element of the human spirit, energy, vitality and purification.”A soft gasp rolled through the audience.Behind her was an assistant who carefully opened the silver

Everyone was left speechless because no one expected Asher to make a bid, and even expected the price of the celestial Nymphaea to be more than the first price.Lora knew that if they continued the bidding contest, the price would be raised to a hundred million dollars. “What are you doing? I thought you’d claimed not to have money for this.” Sasha intoned.She didn’t expect Asher to be challenging with them, both husband and wife exchanged glances. In her mind, Asher was not even rich enough to compete with it, if he was challenging her, it was because he wanted to raise the price. It would be impossible for Asher to be able to afford the herbs.“I changed my mind,” he shrugged and replied.“48 million dollars.” Sasha raised a placard.Unexpectedly Asher raised his placard again, before he said. “ Fifty million dollars.”As soon as Sasha heard Asher bidding, she was furious and filled with resentment toward Asher. She knew she couldn’t compete with Asher anymore, she could only cu

Sasha couldn’t take her eyes off the Lab entrance, her mind pounding through several thoughts. She narrowed her gaze at Terry, who kept a calm expression.Would the result come out positive? A few minutes later, Mirabella walked out of the lab, with a mixed expression and immediately, Sasha strode towards her.“Well, how was it?” Mirabella didn’t answer immediately; her lips tightened, and her gaze narrowed towards Terry.“Say something, is it the pill? Can we go ahead with the production?” Sasha’s impatience wore thin,At this time, Mirabella sighed deeply, “I’ve run the test twice to be sure, but the result is consistent.”“What do you mean?” Ronald asked.“It’s a pain suppressant, a pain killer, and a strong one at that.”“Are you sure,” Mirabella nodded before she replied, “ Yes, Mrs Whitman, I did it twice to be sure I wasn’t missing the components, but the results are the same.” The word hit Sasha like a blow. Her expression hardened, and her fist clenched by her side as a
