Jordan joined the bidding at the final moments. He raised his hand indifferently and said, “I offer two hundred million.”Two hundred million US dollars was essentially double the previous bid, rounded up to the nearest hundred million. Jordan’s bidding price intimidated many competitors in an instant.After all, the amulet was different from the Rejuvenating Pill. Everyone in the hall had witnessed the pill’s miracles, but no one knew anything about the amulet’s strength. The third amulet was sold for two hundred million US dollars, making it probably the most expensive amulet in the world.No one else was willing to offer a price higher than two hundred million for the amulet. With that, Jordan successfully won the bid for the third amulet.When it came to the fourth amulet, the interested bidders quickly raised the price to one hundred and fifty million US dollars. At this stage, many found the amulet unworthy of such a price and gradually stopped bidding.Suddenly, someone i

At the same time, Jasmine announced grandly, “The next item coming up for auction will be the third quarter pill of the Rejuvenating Pill! There’s not much chance to win the bidding for the Rejuvenating Pill anymore. Everyone, please seize the opportunity. Don’t leave with any regret!”Jasmine’s words lifted everyone’s spirit once more.When Todd took the second Rejuvenating Pill, he showed the crowd the miracles one can gain from consuming the Rejuvenating Pill.Many had witnessed the endless possibilities. The crowd began rubbing their palms in anticipation, all of them deciding to fight for the third Rejuvenating Pill at all costs.Once again, the staff presented a Rejuvenating Pill on a silver plate on stage. Jasmine explained with a smile, “The starting price for the third quarter pill remains unchanged. The bid for the Rejuvenating Pill will start at one hundred million US dollars. Each new bid needs to be one hundred million higher than the previous one. It seems like eve

The man who thought he could easily win the third quarter pill with nine billion US dollars cried bitterly when he was forced to give up bidding. He had money, but he couldn’t afford the newest price. It was beyond his ability to pay.At last, the third quarter pill was won by a Jewish businessman at eighteen billion and five hundred million US dollars. The Jewish businessman has been suffering from various chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and coronary artery disease. As a result, his health continued to decline day by day.Some time ago, his doctor found out that his serum creatinine index remained high. After a diagnosis, his doctor confirmed that his kidneys had also begun to decline.Coupled with his other diseases, the doctor said he would enter end-stage renal disease within a few years. By then, he must rely on long-term dialysis to maintain his life or put his hope on a kidney transplant.His health had deteriorated greatly because of all the chronic disea

After a few collection items were successfully auctioned, the auction event was finally approaching its long awaited end.The auction for the fourth quarter pill was about to begin. Charlie used the walkie-talkie and gave Jasmine some instructions.“Before the auction for the fourth quarter pill begins, please give the bidders a friendly reminder. For those who’re waiting to bid for the last full pill, if their financial strength is a little risky, advise them to bid for the fourth quarter pill first. Otherwise, they may not win anything.”Jasmine understood. She immediately announced to the bidders, “The next item for auction is the Rejuvenating Pill. This is the fourth quarter pill, which is also the last quarter pill available for auction. I believe everyone has witnessed the magical effects shown by the three quarter pills earlier. I know many have regretfully missed your chance to win the pills earlier. This is the last quarter pill available. Everyone, please seize the opportu

They felt like they would inevitably go home empty-handed if they didn’t seize the opportunity to win the final quarter pill. They were fully aware that the last full pill’s price wouldn’t be any lower than sixty or seventy billion US dollars.If they did the math and calculated the price, a quarter pill would be less than twenty billion US dollars. The problem was, paying sixty to seventy billion US dollars was beyond the abilities of many.On top of that, the rules forbade them from joint bidding. Those with insufficient funds would have to give up and try for the quarter pill instead. While the last quarter pill might be more expensive, they had no choice but to accept the facts and trudge on.Those who came to join the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill had their reasons, with most of them either very old or ill, or were suffering from terminal illnesses.Once one entered the state of counting their remaining days left in life, money would eventually become less important.At l

The world was never fair, even in the face of death.Many poor people lived in the most desolate areas of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. A glass of unclean water might cause malaria, promptly taking away a young adult’s life.If an ordinary man of the working class was diagnosed with cancer, a good social security system could allow him to live perhaps ten years more.In the best tumor hospital in the world, some patients could even survive the middle and late stages of cancer and live five years more, or even longer, as compared to an ordinary healthy man.Those in the auction who were fortunate enough to win the bidding for the Rejuvenating Pill had a chance to be fully recovered, even if they were diagnosed with mid-stage or late-stage cancer. They could extend their life from a few months to years or decades.Charlie used this special auction with special rules and forms to show the participants a miraculous medicine never seen before in the world, the Rejuvenating Pill.

He managed to save his money and attain immense wealth, but his life would reach an end in the coming three to six months.When Lee saw the British billionaire stop bidding, he was so excited that his body trembled uncontrollably.Jasmine, on the other hand, was dumbfounded to see how things had turned out.A quarter pill of Rejuvenating Pill could reach thirty-eight billion and two hundred million US dollars so easily. The amount exceeded the Moore family’s total net worth! What happened before her eyes was beyond her comprehension.Despite her shock, she remained professional. She asked politely, “Thirty-eight billion and two hundred million US dollars once. Are there any higher bidders?”The hall was deadly silent.The crowd was no longer shocked. Rather, they were filled with despair. They finally found the miracle of life, but no one expected the miracle to be so ridiculously expensive.After that, Jasmine continued asking and called for the price thrice. At last, the hamm

When Lee finally managed to make the payment of thirty-eight billion and two hundred million US dollars, he strode to the stage full of hope.He staggered from his physical weakness, his body so close to death. The pain from the terminal cancer tormented him greatly.He was already at the stage where he had to inject painkillers into his body multiple times a day. Before he left the room to join the auction, he made his subordinate inject a dose of painkillers.The painkiller's effects had weakened a lot by now. Every step he took gave him a heart-wrenching pain.Despite that, Lee’s endurance was by no means comparable to that of ordinary people.As an ex-soldier, he survived the war between North and South Korea. The brutal experience forged his extraordinary perseverance that lasted to this very day.Enduring the terrible pain, he staggered his way up the stage. The pain would not stop, but his mood gradually soared.He knew it was his last step before his rebirth of life. The

However, Jimmy realized something important even as he sighed in relief. "Wait, Mr. Wade… I know I should settle things in the family Stateside, but won't I be arrested upon arrival?""That's Julien's department," Charlie chuckled and turned toward the man. "Tell your butler not to send the evidence to the feds. If it has reached them already, ask to have it back and tell the feds they saw nothing."Julien promptly nodded. "I'll text him right now. You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Wade."Jimmy remained worried. "But sir, I think Nate's not going to let this slide. The man is cunning—he deliberately dug a pit so we'd fall into it, and he gathered all the dirt he could on us to be used as leverage when necessary."Charlie shook his head. "That's no big deal. Julien can make sure that you're fine even if the feds get the evidence."Julien nodded nearby. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. The decision remains in your hands, either way. Just say the word, and it's 25 to life… otherwise, not e

The fact that Jimmy was a partner in Ares LLP already meant he had skill, while Matilda had herself been retired for years and definitely had lost her touch a little. So, having someone like Jimmy who had stayed on the frontlines all this while would definitely be no issue.And in turn, it was a good thing for Jimmy as it was better than the kennels either way.Charlie then asked Jimmy pointedly, "You say you're interested, but are you sincere about it?"Jimmy nodded without hesitation. "Yes, absolutely!""No regrets? We're talking about ten years here.""None, absolutely none!""Do you know what to say if anyone asks?""Yes, of course! I chose to further my career here in Oskia, and it was absolutely voluntary! That's what I'd say even if my family asked!"Charlie nodded. "Good. Then, you will have two weeks. Go home and set your affairs in order and report in for work afterward.""No problem!" Jimmy nodded repeatedly, actually surprised and grateful that Charlie would let hi

And yet, Julien was suddenly clapping his hands, and exclaiming excitedly, "Yes, right! We should get his wife and son over too for a happy reunion!"He then paused and quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no! I mean, they should each be caged with one empty cage separating each of their cages. They can see each other and talk, but there will be no touching. How dare he flex on me—I gotta teach him a lesson to remember!"Jimmy dropped limply on his rump, and Matilda beckoned for Paul to help him up while turning toward Julien as she pursed her lips. "Please, Mr. Rothschild… Even if you don't accept his apology, don't bring his family into this. It's against Oskian tradition—you'd insult your family's name!"Julien shrugged, not hesitating to retort, "What do your traditions have to do with me? If I mean to hurt him, forget his family—I'll drag his dogs over too!"Seeing that Julien was so furious, Charlie decided to stop him, or he might actually go through with it."That's enough, J

Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h

Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des

As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside

Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e

Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott

Fuming, Jimmy snapped at Julien, "If you insist on playing it like that, I will call my boss, and you can talk to him yourself!"Julien chuckled. "That's unnecessary. I've never met him. He would never recognize my voice."Jimmy laughed and nodded despite himself. "Impressive—you can really come up with anything! You don't have his number because he's beneath you, you refuse to call him because he's beneath you, and when I say I'll call him for you, you say he won't recognize your voice. Well, how do you suppose we should sort this out? At least prove you're a Rothschild, or anyone could claim that they are—"Julien held up a hand to stop him. "Then, how about this? I'll ask my butler to talk to your boss."Jimmy laughed even more loudly as if it were the best joke ever. "Hahaha!!! Butler, you say?! You really know how to talk! Alright, I'll wait and see what your 'butler' can do… I mean, what you can do. We'll see whether my boss calls me!"Julien ignored him and whipped out his
