After Hank spent another $10 million on the meal, he went to his hotel to rest and began raising funds.


    Raising $1 billion was a painful process for Hank, but not an impossible one.


    Following the instructions, he quickly and anonymously purchased $1 billion worth of Bitcoin on a cryptocurrency trading tform.


    He then handed over the digital wallet addresses linked to these Bitcoins to Matt Finkelstein.


    Once Matt confirmed the transaction was correct, he reported it to Steve.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    As a result, Steve arranged to have dinner with Hank the following day.


    Hank felt numb.


    He knew that tonight’s dinner at Tianxiang Mansion would cost him another $10 million.


    After being repeatedly tormented by charlie Wade and battling pancreatic cancer, his perspective on money had shifted significantly.


    Wealth or no wealth—just being alive was what truly mattered.


    If he could maintain a reasonable amount of money while living a rtively long and healthy life, that would be enough for him.


    To ensure their own enjoyment in life remained unaffected, a dozen or so impotent members of their group also raised the necessary funds.


    However, they weren’t in a rush to transfer the money just yet. They wanted to wait and see if there were any changes in Hank’s pancreatic cancer.


    If charlie Wade truly had a way to cure Hank, it would prove that he possessed an extraordinary ability beyond their understanding. In that case, they would quickly transfer the money and bring it to the dock, allowing the matter to be resolved smoothly.


    However, if Hank’s condition remained unchanged or worsened, they would have to reconsider whether charlie Wade was truly reliable.


    Don’t look back—the money is gone, and the impotence remains.


    The next day, every second felt like an eternity for Hank.


    He was eager to see charlie Wade as soon as possible, but charlie Wade had scheduled their meeting for 10 p.m.<fn502a> Latest content published on find?novel</fn502a>


    Getting through the day was a struggle.


    As night fell, Hank couldn’t wait any longer and arrived early at Tianxiang Mansion.


    When Don Albert saw him, he couldn’t help but smile and say, “Mr. Hank, why are you here so early tonight? It’s only 8:30, and there’s still an hour and a half before Master Ye arrives.”


    Hank replied respectfully, “I had nothing to do at the hotel, so I figured I’de here and wait.”


    Don Albert nodded and said, “In that case, let’s head to the Diamond Box—it’s reserved for you tonight.”


    Hank quickly said, “Oh, Mr. Albert, that’s very kind of you. Thank you so much!”


    Don Albert chuckled and said, “No need to thank me. Honestly, my Tianxiang Mansion has been open for a long time, and no one has ever spent as much here as you. In other words, you’re my biggest customer.”


    Hank felt like crying but had no tears left.


    A normal person wouldn’t spend $10 million on meals in a lifetime, yet here, a single meal cost that much.


    Whether he was footing the bill alone or splitting it with others, the money never seemed to decrease.


    It was no surprise that he had to spend another $10 million today to keep his status as a top customer.


    So, with a forced smile, he said, “Mr. Albert, the food here is excellent, the service is outstanding, and the atmosphere is even better. It’s truly an honor to spend money here.”


    With a smile, he gestured invitingly and said, “Let’s go, Mr. Hank. I’ll apany you to the Diamond Box.”


    Hank waited alone in the Diamond Box for over an hour before Steve and Matt Finkelstein arrived together.


    As soon as Steve saw Hank, he asked, “Hank, Matt told me that out of all of you, only you have brought over $1 billion in cryptocurrency. Why haven’t the others taken action yet?”


    “Well…”


    Hank initially intended to cover for his associates.
