The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family



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 diseases. The doctors estimated that his lifespan would hardly exceed ten years. He might be in his seventies, but he looked much older than his age. He could be easily mistaken as eighty-five or ny years old.

After successfully winning the bid for the third quarter pill, he slowly walked to the stage with his son's support.

While on the stage, he made a devout prayer to God before taking the pill. Then, the staff fed the pill to him carefully.

This time, the crowd witnessed the elderly turn back in time.

His aging appearance became visibly youthful again, and he grew younger and taller.

The Jewish business wasn't certain if his chronic diseases had gone away, but he could feel the vast improvement in his body. His body felt so much lighter. He might not have become ten years younger, but instead felt like he was five years younger.

That realization made him very emotional. He knelt on the ground and kept chanting prayers of gratitude, as if he was partaking in a religious ceremony.

Meanwhile, in the control room.

Isaac saw the man kneeling on his knees a s he mumbled incoherent chances. Isaac couldn't help but voice a snide comment." It's the Rejuvenating Pill that helped him, but he's thanking God instead."

Charlie chuckled. "Well... From a normal point of view, the Rejuvenating Pill helped him. But to someone who believes in God, he may think that God has helped him by bringing the Rejuvenating Pill to him through me. Such beliefs aren't uncommon in Aurous Hill. When the doctor saved the patient, the patient would immediately go and thank God by prayer for saving their life. Their mindsets are pretty similar in that sense. We shouldn't judge others."

Isaac nodded seriously. "You're right, sir."

Charlie smacked his lips and added, "Still... This is more than I had expected. The price for a quarter pill has reached eighteen and half billion US dollars. That alone shouldn't make it a hard issue to break the hundred billion US dollars mark for the last full pill"

Having said that, he pondered, 'From Chandler's prediction, it's unlikely for Jordan to win the bidding for the Rejuvenating Pill. That means there must be someone more powerful than Jordan in the auction tonight. He's hiding his power, but he can easily win against Jordan,

'Otherwise, Jordan could easily beat the other bidders and win the last pill as his worth is close to a trillion US dollars.'

'Who is this mysteriously powerful man? I don't sense a powerful presence among the registrants. Even Jordan only reported a worth of one trillion US dollars.'

There's also Bernard Arnault, who was forced to join a two billion dollar purchase bundle. But while he may have the highest worth on paper, he's not Jordan's opponent at all.'

The more Charlie thought, the more he focused his attention on Number 99, or Carlson Hobbs. He stared at the man quietly through the surveillance cameras for a long while. That man must be hiding in the dark. Could it be this man?'Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
