Jasmine was even more stunned, and she blurted out, "Then... Then you still asked m e to kick him out from the scene yesterday...”
Charlie said indifferently, "I did not know o f his true identity at that time. Regardless, even if I had known, he still had to be kicked out in that situation."
After pausing for a moment, Charlie then added, "The reason why I’m holding this auction is not because I want to open the back door for my own relatives but it is so that these top rich people can bid honestly for the Rejuvenating Pill according to my rules regardless of their backgrounds. They must not be allowed to use money to overwrite my rules. As soon as I open that door, the nature of the whole thing will
change."
Jasmine nodded gently and said, "I understand, Master Wade. In that case, I will get my secretary to invite him to the reception room. I will go and meet him in the reception room. You can wait here for a moment."
Charlie stood up and said, "It’d be better for me to wait in the reception room. You are the chairman of Moore Group, and he came all the way here to see you. If you did not meet him in your own office, it would only make him think that you have an even more important guest waiting in your office. The auction just ended yesterday, so he would definitely have such thoughts in his heart."
Jasmine hurriedly said, "Master Wade, you can go directly to the room behind me and rest.' After saying that, Jasmine stood up and pushed a piece of geometric decoration on the back wall directly from the left side of the back wall of her office.
This was actually an invisible door that used the decoration and lines of the background on the wall perfectly to hide itself.
There was a lounge of about thirty square meters on the other side of the invisible door. The room had a bed, a bathroom, a shower, a closet, and a massage chair. It was basically a standard bachelor pad.
Charlie's eyes lit up at this show of design, and Jasmine, who was aside, then explained, "My grandfather left this behind. He would usually take his lunch break in the company and so, he made such a hidden room for himself. However, I have already replaced all the furniture inside with new ones, so you can take a rest in here first."
Charlie nodded and said, "Alright. It just so happens that I would also like to hear what he wants to talk about with you."
"Okay.
Jasmine said indifferently, "He was not at the auction itself, but he was watching the whole scene through a video feed."
After saying that, Jasmine then said again, "He does not really care about money. I know that you are willing to spend three hundred billion US dollars to buy a Rejuvenating Pill, but as far as I know, one hand is not enough to count the number of Rejuvenating Pills that he has given out."
Christian was dumbfounded as he listened.
At this time, Jasmine said again, "Mr. Hobbs, the most important thing to the owner of the Rejuvenating Pills is attention to rules, not money. No matter how much money you pay, he will not break his rules for you, and since you have already been kicked out from the venue yesterday, you will not be eligible to participate in the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill from now on.”
Having said that, Jasmine looked at him and said seriously, "Mr. Hobbs, I suggest that you should not make any similar attempts. Since you insisted on taking a gamble at the auction yesterday, you have t o be willing to accept defeat since you lost the bet. You should hurry up and seize the opportunity to leave Aurous Hill and go back to North America. If you really have someone at home who needs the Rejuvenating Pill, get him to sign up for it himself next year!"
