‘If I can’t bring back the pill, I shouldn’t buy it for myself…’‘But I’ve finally won it and even offended Sir Jordan for it. To return home empty-handed is just… I can’t accept this!’While he hesitated and struggled to decide, Jasmine asked again, “Number 99, will you be making the payment?”Carlson hesitated for a moment and finally decided to put his dignity away. He begged, “I beg you! Please give me a chance and let me have the pill! If one hundred billion US dollars isn’t enough, I’ll top up another fifty billion!”An additional fifty billion to his existing offer would make it three hundred and seventy billion US dollars in total.Many in the hall were stunned. They wouldn’t have dreamt of someone who could come up with three hundred seventy billion US dollars in cash! Who was this man?Carlson knew he could not eat the Rejuvenating Pill himself. Otherwise, he would become a target for the rest.He only had two choices, and both didn’t look very good. Either he took the

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

Jasmine then added with a meaningful smile, “Number 35, you’re the one who made the bid at two hundred and ten billion US dollars. That means that the price is within your affordability. Besides, it’s already a dream come true for you to purchase the pill even at this price. If you are dissatisfied and keep insisting for a re-auction, I’ll have the staff escort you out.”She went on, “We can sell the Rejuvenating Pill to Number 16 at seventy-two billion US dollars. Perhaps that means we’ll suffer a huge loss. After all, it’s around three hundred billion US dollars less than the highest offer earlier.”“However, losing three hundred billion US dollars isn't important to us. Upholding the rules is the most important!”“For those who try to challenge our rule and fairness, we’ll remove them from the auction at once!”“We will do the same regardless of the offender’s wealth and status. We do not welcome them here!”Jordan’s heart skipped an anxious beat at Jasmine’s harsh reminder.H

“You! What did you just say?!”Jordan blacked out and almost fainted at that very second. Fortunately, Jarvis was right beside him. He supported him and pressed on a pressure point on Jordan’s hand, allowing Jordan to regain his consciousness.Immediately after, Jordan demanded furiously, “How can that b*stard call the emergency order? Does he even have the authority?!”Jace explained with great difficulty, “The Sir has called for a board meeting and presented the complete evidence regarding your funds and transactions at the group’s Swiss bank account…”“He told the board that you’ve deliberately gathered two hundred billion US dollars just for a fabled life elixir…”“He believed that your current health conditions have affected your sanity, including your rationale. If you continue to be the chairman, it’ll cause the group a huge financial loss and pose a big risk to the future operations. As such, they executed the highest emergency order…”Jace continued, “Everyone on the boa

He lost count of the endless despair, emotional, and hopeful moments he had during the entire night. It kept going on and on like an unending cycle.He felt his heart was growing weak from all the overwhelming emotions. If this continued, he would go through a heart attack and pass away before even eating the pill.Bernard stared intensely at Jordan, hoping to hear Jordan say that he couldn’t buy or pay for the pill. If that happened, Bernard would be able to buy the Rejuvenating Pill with just seventy-two billion US dollars!Kathleen, meanwhile, was relieved when she found out that her grandfather was eligible to win the pill. However, her heart jumped in shock and anxiety when she heard her grandfather’s angry roar. Immediately, she knew her uncle must have taken the chance to usurp her grandfather’s position. Jace the butler stuttered helplessly, “My Lord… I’m so sorry. I have no way to help you now… I’m under house arrest. Sir ordered at least dozens of mercenaries to surround

Jordan’s face twisted into a pained expression. He never expected his dutiful son, who valued family and affection, would treat him so ruthlessly. He thought his son had always regarded him as the most important person out of everyone else. The terrible truth was that his son hated him intensely due to his long life.Jordan was so obsessed with longevity, he even traveled far to Aurous Hill for it. His eldest son must have been furious with that.Thus, the man chose to reveal his true colors at such a time.Despite Jordan’s reluctance to admit it, he knew that his son must have already gained complete control over the Fox family in the United States. After all, his son managed to remove him from power by making almost all the board members vote in his son’s favor. The man was confident that Jordan would be powerless to resist. With how almost all the board members showed support for his son, that also meant that Jordan had lost their trust for him.Jordan was already dying, una

Jarvis hurriedly supported the unconscious Jordan. He read Jordan’s pulse immediately. Noticing that it was steadily weakening and that Jordan was approaching death, he shouted anxiously, “He might not be able to make it! Hurry, call the ambulance!”The door to the second-floor private room suddenly burst open. Kathleen stood behind the railing and fled inside, crying in panic. “Grandpa! Master Yant, what happened to my grandfather?!”Jarvis looked up to see Kathleen on the second floor and murmured sadly, “Miss Kathleen, Lord Fox, he… I’m afraid he might not make it!”Kathleen fell into an immediate breakdown. She shouted at the staff, “His life is at stake! Please call the ambulance!”Jarvis carried Jordan up from his seat and alerted the staff as well. “Please call the ambulance!”Jasmine ordered the staff to summon the emergency staff in at once. Frightened that someone might accidentally faint due to turbulent emotions in the auction, she had arranged for an emergency team in

Kathleen knew Charlie wouldn’t turn a blind eye on her anymore, particularly after he gave his men the instructions. She hurriedly followed them and rushed to the first floor.The VIP room on the first floor was very close to the auction hall.Jarvis carried the dying Jordan into the room. The staff led Kathleen in as well.Kathleen couldn’t be bothered about her keeping her double identity a secret anymore. As soon as she went into the room, she rushed to Jordan’s side and asked worriedly, “Grandpa… Grandpa, wake up. Grandpa… I’m Kathleen. Can you hear me?”Jarvis sighed sadly. “Miss Kathleen, Lord Fox’s breathing has grown weaker. I’m afraid… I’m afraid he won’t make it…”Kathleen’s tears came rolling down her cheeks at that instant. She choked and cried, “It won’t be… Mr. Wade won’t let Grandpa die so easily… He must have a way… I’m sure he must have…”Jarvis sighed again. “Indeed, the Rejuvenating Pill can cure him and bring him back to life. Unfortunately, Lord Fox…can’t aff

Charlie frowned in thought for a while, before saying, "Well, there is a plan, but I can't vouch for the chances. I also need you to cooperate with me and not let anything slip, or everything will go to waste. Can you do that?""I can!" Claire nodded, determined, before quickly asking, "So? What's the plan?""Well, it's not specific," Charlie replied. "We just have to improvise as we go along. Let's just head in for now!"-They left the airport and took a cab to the traffic police's headquarters. Just as she entered, they saw their Cullinan parked outside.Charlie sent Claire in first while he carried her luggage before following.Meanwhile, Elaine was wailing in her room, "I've been married to him for years! Suffering so much pain and humiliation, only for him to hook up with an old flame behind my back! Is it wrong if I struck out?"The traffic police officer was on the verge of a breakdown, but he still said patiently, "Ma'am, I've told you many times—what he did was wrong

Claire wasn't all that experienced in love and hence didn't know how a person caught in a love triangle would think or why they would experience such terrible mood swings.Still, Charlie's explanation gave her a general idea, and she sighed, "Actually, Dad looked really bad when Matilda came back. He was so obsessed with her that he didn't care if Mom was alive—even bringing her home for dinner. I'd be seething if I was Mom."Charlie sighed in exasperation. "Well, let's not loiter about. Let's go to the traffic police station.""Yeah!" Claire nodded, before holding his arm, "If they're there, that means they're safe, and they won't be fighting with those officers around. So, let's not head over so quickly."Charlie raised a brow. "What are you getting at?"Claire sighed, clearly troubled. "We have to think—how are we going to alleviate this crisis? If it's really as you say and Mom has mostly guessed it right, this fight might just be the start. At best, that fight on the highway

The traffic police officer smiled in exasperation. "Is there no getting through to you? You could even afford to drive a nice car, and you'd most likely survive an accident. But what if you were left bedridden for a long time? Yell at each other in the same hospital room?"Elaine waved him off. "I don't care—all I know is that I will always get my revenge, and on the spot if possible. If there were superheroes, I would be Wonder Woman!""Urgh…" The traffic police officer was utterly speechless. "How about this? We will call your daughter and have her come over to bail you. She will mediate your fight!"With those words, he returned Elaine's phone to her, and it happened to ring just then.It was a call from Claire.Seeing that the contact name said [Daughter], the traffic police officer quickly said, "Go on, answer it!"Elaine took it and answered the call, and Claire asked urgently before she could say a word, "Mom? Where are you? Where's Dad? Are you both alright?"Elaine sulk

While Charlie was waiting for Claire at the airport, Jacob and Elaine were taken to the traffic police station.But even in the patrol car, Elaine did not stop lashing out at Jacob.As such, the traffic police had no choice but to call up another patrol car to bring them over separately.Charlie was hence left wondering what those two were up to this time as they were nowhere to be seen when Claire's flight was about to land and weren't answering his texts.Fortunately, Charlie never considered them reliable, so he was fine whether they showed up or not.If they did, they could all head home in the same car.If they didn't, he just had to take a cab home with Claire.It was past three when Claire's private jet landed, and Claire herself cleared the checkpoint in just half an hour, wheeling a trolley with her luggage.Seeing Charlie from afar, she couldn't help quickening her pace as she beamed.Charlie hurried toward her as well, and Claire shoved her trolley aside when they w

However, to Jacob's shock, Elaine wasn't misled at all as she growled icily, "Why would I ask anyone else?! If there's someone I must question, it's Matilda! She's getting married, isn't she? Good! I will be there and ask her why she hooked up with my husband!"Jacob turned pale right then.Matilda's son and even some of their old classmates would be attending her wedding.If Elaine went, he would be exposed, and he wouldn't be able to stay in Aurous Hill out of shame!His nerves gnawing at him, Jacob could only plead, "Please, just trust me this once! Anything else aside, she's getting married, anyway—there's no way that I'd have anything to do with her! That alone should prove my innocence!"Elaine snorted. "If Matilda returned when I was arrested, it means she has been back for a while! And you're saying nothing happened since? Hell, even if she's married, it doesn't prove that she wasn't up to some hanky-panky with you! Maybe while I was arrested and refused a divorce when you

The driver was left dumbstruck—this wasn't how it was supposed to go.Still, he blurted, "C-Crashing into a Cullinan? I might end up dead instead…""Fine! Then let's change cars, and you crash into ours—how about that?!" Elaine promptly retorted before continuing, "Or we could just stand right in front of your car while you run into us! I just happen to have a death wish, but if you don't kill me now, I'll kill you! Don't think about getting away either—I know your car plate! I'll sell this car and use the money to put a bounty on your head! I don't care what happens to me now! I'll claw my nails into the devil's face even if he shows up!"The driver was actually quite experienced, but even he had yet to meet someone as ridiculous as Elaine.Barely able to keep his hands steady, he threw them up as he apologized, "I'm so sorry, ma'am—I just lost my cool. I'm merely a humble driver of a Honda Civic while you own a Rolls. Hell, I spent fifty bucks buying that red emblem from Amazon,
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6410
Elaine may have led a life as if she was above the rules, but beneath that tough exterior lay crippling insecurities and a horrific inferiority complex.She was always afraid of being belittled—but more than that, of being ostracized and betrayed.Over the years, the greatest source of her complexes could all be traced back to Matilda.After all, Matilda had been a star back in their school days. Because Elaine was a close friend of hers, many boys would get chummy with Elaine, but only because they were interested in Matilda.Being from a poor farmer's family, Elaine had been scorned plenty and therefore felt exceedingly inferior around Matilda.It was from that sense of inferiority that Elaine had inadvertently developed a one-sided rivalry against Matilda, and she believed her greatest triumph over Matilda in this life was the moment she had stolen Jacob from her.However, while Elaine presumed that she could hold that victory over Matilda's head, Lady Wilson had soured that v

Moreover, given Elaine's ridiculous temper, Jacob knew she would definitely go overboard and destroy him.He wouldn't even have a place to live at that point, and it would really be game over if she held a grudge and stormed the Calligraphy and Painting Association!Under such circumstances, he couldn't ask for a divorce—hell, he might even refuse a divorce if Elaine asked for one!However, that was when Elaine laughed coldly. "Oh, my… You're really not going to divorce me?""Come on—how long were we married?" Jacob quickly reasoned. "Getting divorced at our age? People would laugh at us."Elaine scoffed. "Now I'm curious… Matilda's quite old too, and she's a divorcee marrying again. Won't people laugh at her?""Technically, she's a widow—"Jacob blurted out, but soon turned pale, tensing up again not a second after he had just calmed down, asking gingerly, "W-Why would you suddenly mention her?'Elaine stopped pretending right then and snapped, "It's actually impressive that y

Horrified, Jacob promptly grasped the steering wheel and brought the Cullinan back under control while not hesitating to snap, "Are you crazy?! We're on the highway—that could have killed the both of us!"However, Elaine ignored him and seized the moment to open the armrest box, pulling out the large white envelope.As she opened it, she muttered, "So, it really was a wedding invitation… You really are a terrible friend, Jacob Wilson, hiding a wedding invitation like this! What's the point? Just look at that nervous face of yours—would I suspect you of having an affair with the bride-to-be?"She flipped open the card and was experienced enough to check the names first while disregarding the usual preamble. She wouldn't care about the venue or the time either, focusing solely on the professor who had somehow made Jacob very nervous.That was how Elaine found the names in less than a second: Yolden Hart and Matilda Hall.Matilda?!The name could well be knives stabbing Elaine in th
