At first, Sam was confident he would emerge victorious. He firmly believed that nobody would be willing to purchase the so-called Rejuvenating Pill for a staggering 150 million dors. However, he quickly realized how mistaken he was when Travis Lane unexpectedly stepped up to the challenge.<fn0d7b> Content originallyes from f?ndnovel</fn0d7b>
Turning to Travis, Sam’s face reflected his disbelief as he asked, “Mr. Lane, what do you mean?”
Travis understood that Sam came from a distinguished family, but the allure of the Rejuvenating Pill was too strong for him to resist, even if it meant offending the Kilgore family.
Who could overlook the incredible opportunity to feel 20 years younger?
Not even divine intervention could deter Travis from pursuing the pill; he certainly wouldn’t let someone like Sam Kilgore stand in his way.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
With a serious expression, he replied, “I’m sorry, Master Kilgore. I have long desired Master Wade’s miraculous Rejuvenating Pill. Now that it’s within my reach, I cannot let it slip away. Please forgive me if I cause any offense!”
Sam’s face contorted into a scornful grimace as the reality sank in; he had already lost to Charlie due to Travis’s aggressive bidding.
Defeating Charlie in front of a crowd not only brought him shame but also meant he would have to endure swallowing the ruby ne in front of everyone.
Just as frustration boiled within him, thinking that Travis had intentionally opposed him, a voice from the adjacent table eximed, “I offer 151 million dors!”
Someone had actually bid a million dors more than Travis’s offer! It was evident that the auction was heating up.
Charlie chuckled and said, “Sir, I neglected to mention that the starting price is 150 million, and the minimum increment is 10 million. We don’t do petty one-million increases; it’s rather dull.”
The man quickly acknowledged, “Oh, my apologies, Master Wade. In that case, I’ll offer 160 million!”
“What?!” Sam eximed in disbelief, nearly dropping his jaw to the floor.
The starting price for this so-called miracle pill was 150 million, and someone had not only epted that but had raised the stakes even higher! What were they thinking?!
Before Sam could gather his thoughts, another bidder at a different table jumped in eagerly, “I offer 170 million!”
Sam’s expression twisted in disgust, feeling as if he had just swallowed something repulsive. He silently cursed, ‘Are there really people this insane?!’
It was iprehensible for Sam to ept that the pill was worth 170 million dors when Travis confidently raised his hand and dered, “I offer 200 million!”
The room erupted in gasps!
Travis was resolute in his pursuit of the Rejuvenating Pill; for him, 200 million was merely a warm-up in this bidding battle.
Meanwhile, Graham sat quietly, but his heart raced with excitement.
The Rejuvenating Pill! Master Wade’s extraordinary Rejuvenating Pill!
Although he and his daughter had received two incredible elixirs from Master Wade, the Rejuvenating Pill was far more potent and extraordinary inparison.
Not wanting to miss out on this opportunity, Graham raised his hand and announced, “I offer 210 million!”
“What the hell!” Sam muttered in frustration, his face turning pale with anxiety.
The price had already reached 200 million, and someone was actually increasing it?!
Out of nowhere, Zeke chimed in, “I offer 220 million!” He then turned to Graham with an apologetic smile and added, “I’m sorry, Brother Quinton!”
Graham understood Zeke’s intentions perfectly. Both had witnessed Master Wade’s incredible abilities and recognized the value of the Rejuvenating Pill.
Master Wade had never auctioned off a Rejuvenating Pill before; this might be the only opportunity they had! If they let it pass, they might never get another chance.
Consequently, no one was willing to back down.
With a slight shake to refocus himself, Travis raised his hand again and shouted, “250 million! Apologies, brothers, but allow me to overbid!”
From the next table, someone shouted, “Then I offer 260 million!”
