“Look here, we’ve laid out our terms clearly. You were the ones who insisted on buying it. I didn’t force you guys at all.” The shop owner said indifferently. “Stop the crap! I don’t want this Luminianth Root anymore. Hurry up and give me a refund!” Julie grabbed the man by his collar and roared.“What? Are you trying to stir up trouble in my shop?”The shop owner’s expression did not falter, and he quickly clapped his hands once. Soon, a group of brawny men came out from the room behind.Seeing the fierce looks on their face, Julie and the rest were immediately stunned and silent.“Are you guys tired of living? How dare you stir up trouble in Mr. Walter’s shop?”“Anyone could tell that they’re brainless, they have no clue about the rules here.”“Exactly! They don’t even check the item before raising their bid. Doesn’t that say something about their stupidity?” The crowd started gossiping.“What? You think that I’m scared because you have a few men?”Florence glared at hi

“I’ll buy it for five million dollars.” Dustin’s voice captured several customers’ attention. They all looked at him as if he had grown another head. Anyone who’s in the right mind would be able to tell that this Luminianth Root was defective. Only an idiot would buy a Luminianth Root in that condition.“Dustin, have you lost your mind? Why are you spending five million for a piece of trash?” Ruth was shocked.Although it wasn’t a lot of money for her, it was still a dumb decision.“You, you really want to buy it?” Florence could not believe it.“What? Do you not want to sell it?” Dustin asked.“I’ll sell it! Of course, I’ll sell it!” Florence nodded her head repeatedly as a smile bloomed on her face.Although she still made a loss for selling it for five million dollars, it was still better than nothing.“Dustin, this Luminianth Root is obviously useless. Are you sure you want to buy it?” Dahlia asked in surprise.“Oh, silly! What are you talking about? This Luminianth Roo

“You’re hopeless.” James thought he was looking at an idiot.“What on earth are you up to?” Dahlia also frowned at the scene.She really could not understand his outrageous behavior.Ignoring the crowd’s gazes, Dustin reached down to the shattered Luminianth Root and started to search for something.Soon, a crimson red, finger-sized Luminianth Root appeared.This small and delicate Luminianth Root was red as blood. It was even emanating an odd smell.One could tell that it was no ordinary item.“That’s odd, how could there be a smaller Luminianth Root?” Ruth was confused.“Is it possible for Luminianth Root to give birth?”At that moment, Mr. Walter seemed to realize something and exclaimed, “No—no way! Could it be…that’s a Blood Luminianth Root?!”Everyone in the room went wild at his statement.“What? Blood Luminianth Root? Mr. Walter, you’re not kidding, are you?!”“That’s right. I’ve seen it in a book, this is truly a Blood Luminianth Root!”“Oh my God! I can’t believe

“This fellow really hit the jackpot! I can’t believe he really found a Blood Luminianth Root!”“I know right? With a treasure like that, he won’t have to worry for the rest of his life!”“Damn it! If I knew there was a treasure hiding in that piece of wood, I would’ve bought it myself!”With the Blood Luminianth Root’s debut, the onlookers immediately started talking.All of them looked at Dustin with a gaze full of envy.“Fuck! This guy really struck gold!” James clenched his teeth, eyes filled with rage.“That’s odd, how did he know that there was a treasure hiding inside?” Dahlia was more puzzled than shocked.Everyone had no clue, even Mr. Walter.And yet, Dustin managed to notice.“Is it really luck? Or was there another reason?” She wondered.“Dustin, we really won big this time! But, how did you guess that a Blood Luminianth Root was hiding in there?”Ruth asked the question that was on everyone’s minds.“To be honest, I wasn’t sure as well. It was purely a guess.” D

The night passed by peacefully.Natasha enjoyed her cup of coffee at Java Joys as she flipped through pages of documents.She looked worn out after staying up the entire night.“Natasha!” Just then, Quentin and Mr. Wangley stormed in through the door.“What is it?” Natasha couldn’t even be bothered to spare them a glance. She continued to flip through the documents.Bang!A wooden box was rudely slammed on the table.It opened up to reveal a single white pill in it.“Check this out, Natasha. Do you know what it is?” Quentin pointed at the pill, and his tone was unmistakably demanding“How would I know? You tell me.” She sat up lazily.“Hah! You can’t even recognize the Eternumax?” Quentin looked unimpressed.“So this is Eternumax. Well, what about it?” Natasha asked, not too concerned.“What about it?! You have the gall to ask me what about it? I bought this Eternumax from the Hummers! They’ve managed to manufacture it! Are you aware of that?” Quentin raised his voice.“Oh? So what? Is

Over at the Nicholsons’ that afternoon.“Dahlia, are you going to Miss Hummer’s birthday party this evening? Can you bring me along?” James asked excitedly when he saw the invitation on the table.She was, after all, the daughter of Edwin Hummer, the richest man in the country. It would be beneficial to make acquaintances with such a person.“I will be attending the birthday party, but the invitation is limited to two persons only. Julie has already called dibs on it.” Dahlia cast a damp over James’ enthusiasm.“Her?” Displeased, James turned to look at Julie, who was on the couch applying makeup to her face. “Dahlia, I’m your brother! How could you bring her, and not me?” He grumbled.At that, Julie shot him a glare and said condescendingly, “And what can you do there? Everyone attending the party tonight will be people of status and elites. Wouldn’t a high school dropout like you just embarrass yourself showing up there?”“Hey, what’s that supposed to mean? Do you think that you’re

“Dahlia, you can head up first. I’m waiting for a friend here.” Julie made up an excuse to send Dahlia away once they entered the hotel lobby.She was well aware that with Dahlia around, she would never get the attention she yearned for.How would she make acquaintances with the rich and famous then? How would she get to know rich, eligible men?“Okay, I’ll be waiting for you at the banquet hall.” Without giving it much thought, Dahlia took the elevator up to the banquet hall.With Dahlia gone, Julie quickly became the center of attention. She deliberately walked around the lobby and flaunted coquettishly, attracting much attention.Some men approached her in an attempt to strike up a conversation, but she rejected them all, playing hard to get.“Hey, you’ve got such lovely earrings! May I know where you bought them from?”“Yes, that’s true! I’ve never seen such exquisite earrings before!”“These rubies are huge! They must have cost you a lot!”Soon, not only the men came up to her, bu

Over at the banquet hall, Dahlia was puzzled when she saw Julie panting as she entered. “Didn’t you say that you were waiting for a friend, Julie? Where’s your friend?”“Something came up and she couldn’t make it.”She smiled sheepishly. “Oh, Dahlia, could you lend me your compact mirror, please? I need to fix my makeup.”“I remembered that you’ve brought one yourself,” Dahlia said.“Mine’s faulty. I’d prefer to use yours.” Without waiting for a reply, Julie took Dahlia’s bag and fished around in it.Dahlia was annoyed by that. She had to admit, her cousin was really a spoiled brat who lacked manners.“Thanks, Dahlia.” Julie tossed Dahlia’s bag back to her after she managed to get the compact mirror out. Then, she made up some excuse to go to the washroom.Right at that moment, Tina made her entrance, followed by a crowd behind her, creating a ruckus in the banquet hall.In the end, she stopped smack in the middle of the hall.“Quiet down, everyone. I have an announcement to make.” Tin
