The celebrity herbalist mocked Roderick and called him broke after he acquired the Astragalus root without anyone competing with him, which made him think highly of himself.

This time around, the War King fooled him by making absurdly high bids against him until he spent a staggering sum of fifty million dollars on a highly toxic rare root.

The fact that Edmund was only concerned about public validation made him so blind that he failed to notice he had just wasted millions.

The crowd was still engaged in private discussions about how Edmund spent such a huge amount of money on a rare root without batting an eyelid.

In the end, they all concluded that the celebrity herbalist knew more about the usefulness of the rare roots that were unknown to them for splurging such a breathtaking amount on it.

At that moment, Edmund was in his seat, feeling like a king as his entourage and the crowd showered praises on him.

From that point on, he managed to secure a prominent position in the hall abo

    The crowd was dumbfounded by Roderick's remark. They couldn't imagine whether he knew what he was saying at all.If he called the land in Bellmore a waste of money, what would the useless land on Tuchel Avenue that he purchased be called? A total loss!The crowd couldn't withstand the nonsense.Meanwhile, the big four, who had been startled for a moment by Roderick's comment, suddenly burst into roaring laughter.They couldn't find any other reaction but to laugh. To them, Roderick was nothing but a clown.If not, why would he rubbish a highly potential land in a location like Bellmore? Was he trying to justify the waste he bought for ten million dollars?A thought came to Benjamin, and he laughed heartily before saying, "Roderick, it's understandable that you got a land with no future potential. Do you have to condemn highly profitable land in Bellmore because of your bad luck?"The crowd burst into another round of laughter as they understood Benjamin's stance. They thought Roderick

    The Big Four had their faces widen in surprise upon hearing this from Kate. They couldn’t appreciate their luck enough for meeting the noble lady again today.They seriously needed her help, and they had tried all possible means to meet her and request her assistance.Aside from last night, when they luckily met her at the Eclipse Hotel but couldn’t get the help they needed, they never knew when they would meet her again.Luckily for them, she showed up at the auction and willingly came to help them.The Big Four couldn’t thank their luck enough.They quickly exchanged glances, worried about how to make good use of this opportunity that had gently come to them.Nothing else came to their mind other than getting rid of Roderick first.He had been their obstacle yesterday. They thought that if they didn’t want the same issue to come up this time, they needed to make Kate see how useless Roderick was and get him kicked out on the spot.Then Benjamin began with a sheepish smile, “Miss Bol

    The whole crowd was dumbfounded upon hearing that, especially the big four. They couldn't believe Roderick's ignorance had led him to find interest in a useless piece of land.They all laughed silently. In the end, they concluded that only a useless fellow would find value in a worthless parcel. It's very simple logic.What a pity!What a waste of resources!As for Christina, her head was buzzing with serious disgust and anger. She was gobsmacked and couldn't believe her ears that Roderick had gone for such a useless land. She wondered if Roderick even knew what he was saying at all.Did he just say he was interested in land on the outskirts of the city that serves no purpose?Christina tried hard to understand his intention in making such a request, but it was difficult for her. Was he trying to save face by purchasing any available land so they wouldn't return to the office empty-handed?Or was he just clueless about what kind of land they needed for the project and thought they cou

    Christina tried to maintain a cool tone as she asked her boss calmly, "Miss Bolton, what do you think of the matter now that the highly potential land has fallen into someone else's hands?"Kate's face showed a bit of worry, and she shook her head gently. She was at a loss for words, unable to understand why Roderick had hesitated in acquiring the land.Given that he had informed Kate of the research he had done, she didn't want to intervene, believing he knew more about the land than she did.Moreover, since Roderick had spent years in Glacia City, she believed he knew more about the city's land than she did.Of course, she understood Christina's fight for the land in Bellmore.Undoubtedly, Bellmore is indeed a perfect location for their upcoming gigantic hotel project.It doesn't just have a bustling environment; the location also has continuous and future potential.They had many opportunities to acquire the land, but unfortunately, they slept on it, and now it has ended up in Cale

    Christina's eyes widened in shock, and her jaw dropped to the floor as she couldn't lift it, hearing her boss's words.It was as though she had gone into a trance, repeating Kate's statement in her head a thousand times.She was utterly stunned and wondered if her boss knew what she was saying at all.The crowd was already bidding for the hotcake land, which would be the best parcel for their upcoming project. Yet, they hadn't made any move on the land.Meanwhile, the only reason her boss mentioned it was because Roderick Holmes knew more about the property.Who the fuck is Roderick?What the hell does he know about property?Unarguably, he knows nothing about business, nor does he have any knowledge about securing land properties.Why her boss was relying on such a person was what was giving her a serious headache at this time.Can't she even decide on her own business anymore? Why does she have to give all the power of decision-making to some novice?Christina couldn't let things be

  • Chapter 103

    The hatred the Big Four have for Roderick this time is many times greater than what they had always felt for him.Their faces twisted in increasing disgust the longer they stared at him.They couldn't believe how lucky they had been to meet Kate last night, given how long they had been longing for the opportunity.It was crazy that they were already close to achieving their goal—getting the lady to connect them with the miracle doctor after pleading for her forgiveness for their offenses. That was until Roderick happened to be their obstacle.They could only wish he hadn't been at the scene last night when they met Kate. There was a high chance they would all be relieved of their pain by now if they had met with the miracle doctor.Benjamin's face was the most bitter among his colleagues. The pain of the situation Roderick caused made his heart throb. If only he could disclose this matter to his colleagues.Painfully, it was a very disgraceful and embarrassing matter that he had to ke
