However, his gaze gradually grew firmer as he wiped his tears away.
This was also the crucial moment where h e gained a new understanding of money. N o matter how rich people may be, they couldn't bring their money with them after death.
What was so wrong with spending more than thirty-eight billion US dollars at once? Wealth's ultimate mission was to serve life!
The audience watched as the skinny elderly with a sallow complexion reverted t o a healthy appearance in just a flash. Shockingly, he looked spirited and healthy again, as though he had regained his lost youth. The sight made the audience seethe with envy.
Envy wasn’t the only thing they felt. Many were in agony, for all the quarter pills available in the auction had all been bought and consumed by their rightful owners.
The last Rejuvenating Pill for auction was a complete pill.
Many couldn't help but wonder about a full pill’s effect. A quarter pill was already effective. What more a full pill?
Lee soon left the stage and quietly returned to his seat.
Afterwards, Jasmine gave a speech on the microphone.
"As everyone knows, tonight's auction is brought to you by Aurous Hill's Moore Group and Eastcliff’s Wade Group. The Rejuvenating Pill’s owner requested me to express his thanks to Moore Group and
Wade Group for co-organizing the auction."
"He would also like to extend his thanks to Wade Group's chairman, Mr. Jeremiah Wade for showing his biggest support and attending the auction. He traveled a long way from Eastcliff to take part in the auction as a VIP. His presence made this auction prosperous..."
Jeremiah, who was sitting in the first row, became very emotional over Jasmine's speech. Prior to the auction, Charlie promised to give Jeremiah a half pill during the auction. Thus, he had been anticipating this very moment.
Unfortunately, he was a mysterious man who kept his information highly confidential. None of them expected such a man to give Jeremiah a half pill!
It was a half pill!
If he sold it by splitting it into two quarter pills, or just as it is, the pill would easily worth more than fifty billion US dollars!
Why would this mysterious man give a half pill to Jeremiah so easily? It was worth close to fifty billion US dollars, for crying out loud!
What did Jeremiah do to deserve such a big favor?
The crowd burst into speculative murmurs as they questioned this turn of events. A voice among them said, "Wasn't the Wade family dying after Porter from Ten Thousand Armies attacked them? Since when did Jeremiah rise back to power again?!"
