Chapter 2009
Sakura’s delicate and pretty face was filled with disdain. She narrowed her eyes and glared at Harvey, and spat coldly, “York, you dare use this to threaten Young Master Thompson?”“Who do you think you are?”“No one will take you seriously!”“Yes! Why don’t you feed it to the dog in front of all of us?!”“We also want to see if the dog would become immortal after being fed with the longevity elixir that costs billions of dollars!”“I don’t believe that you’re willing to feed it to the dog!”“Ridiculous! What a joke!”“Young Master Thompson has never been threatened by anyone!”Several rich young masters and wealthy women, who were good friends with Hector, began to echo his words. They all glared at Harvey with contempt.Yvonne frowned at the scene, wondering how Harvey would react.Although Hector didn’t speak, his emotions were unpredictable. He no longer had the composure or calmness befitting the Four Young Masters of Wolsing.“Okay, then let’s have everyone see it. All

“No!”Hector almost jumped out instinctively and subconsciously made a grab for Harvey’s hand.However, Harvey took half a step back at the critical moment. He swung his right hand, and suddenly, the longevity elixir appeared in his palm.The crowd was beyond shocked.No one expected Harvey to actually make a fool out of Hector!On top of that, Hector’s reaction surpassed everyone’s imagination.Right then, Harvey was holding the longevity elixir. He flashed Hector a smile that didn’t reach his eyes and said, “Young Master Thompson, why are you so worked up?”“I’m just feeding the dog with my own possession. It has nothing to do with you.”“Why would you care about something so insignificant?”Yvonne was momentarily taken aback. She then realized that Harvey probably already caught wind of Hector’s true purpose of coming to Mordu last night.Otherwise, Harvey wouldn’t have grasped Hector’s weakness in an instant.Tyson and George looked at Harvey with admiration.The Chief

“You…!”Harvey’s remarks sent Hector seething with anger. He desperately wanted to beat Harvey.However, what little remains of his rationale warned him that if he acted rashly, Harvey would most likely continue raising the price.Hector was determined to get the Longevity Elixir, no matter what.He clenched his teeth hard, almost breaking a few in the process.“Hand him the money already! Give him fifteen billion dollars! Treat it as a donation to chase this beggar away!”The entire crowd gasped at Hector’s declaration.When Hector agreed to give 4.7 billion dollars before, they were already bewildered.Yet, at this moment, Hector agreed on the fifteen billion dollar price.A lot of famous celebrities and wealthy women among the crowd tried their best to cover their mouths to stop themselves from screaming.The events that were unfolding before them took a turn that far exceeded their comprehension.An item worth forty-seven million dollars at most was immediately bought of

Sakura, who was slapped in the face previously, returned to her seat and held Hector’s hand tightly after seeing his cold expression.“I’m sorry, Young Master Thompson. I was too reckless!”“I didn’t know how important that thing was!”“To show my apology, the Miyamoto Corporation will pay fifteen billion dollars.”Sakura’s eyes were twitching to no end when she said those words.It was fifteen billion dollars after all, not a mere hundred and fifty dollars.Even though the Miyamoto Corporation was flourishing in the Island Nations, taking out fifteen billion dollars on a whim would surely cause the company great damage.But there was no other choice. If the money affected Hector and her collaboration, things would be terrible for her.She would rather throw away the money than face such consequences.“Let’s just forget about this.”After hearing Sakura’s words, Hector felt slightly better.He leaned on his seat and narrowed his eyes, and seemed to have calmed down slightly.

As Hector and Sakura were busy acting intimate, Harvey tossed his bank card motionlessly.Just then, Tyson spoke up from the side.“Sir York, why did we hand them the Longevity Elixir?”“If that thing really is as godly as you say, we could’ve kept it for ourselves!”Harvey glanced at Tyson before chuckling lightly.“Do you actually believe that such a thing exists?”Tyson froze. He wasn’t able to react properly.“If the Longevity Elixir actually worked, Ziusudra would’ve been the first immortal being in this world.”“That thing seems mysterious and all, but it’s just mercury. To put it bluntly, it’s quicksilver, a material found in thermometers. It’s just black because of the poor purification technology during ancient times.”Tyson looked mystified. Since Harvey already said so, Tyson had no reason to doubt him.If Hector found out that he had bought mercury for fifteen billion dollars, who knew how he would feel?As Harvey and Tyson continued talking, the auction continue

The crowd froze slightly after hearing Harvey’s words. Their eyes twitched frantically as they looked at Harvey with a bewildered expression.‘Does he own a treasure vault? Or can he just print money at will?’‘Fifteen billion dollars?!’‘Does he think that it’s just a hundred and fifty dollars?!’A lot of people wanted to stand up and slap Harvey at this moment.Who in the right mind would provoke someone like that?Yvonne froze as well, but a second later, she smiled. She thought Harvey would let her play for a while, but as it turned out, he immediately went for the killer move.Hector, who was previously calm and collected, and Sakura, whose face was as cold as ice, could not help but stand up.Their glare on Harvey mirrored their desire to rip him to shreds.Harvey had crossed the line!Fifteen billion dollars on the very first bid?!“Harvey York!”Sakura, who was barely able to compose herself, gritted her teeth so hard she almost broke them.Had the occasion allow

Harvey flashed Hector a faint smile, then cocked his head toward the auctioneer.“Since Young Master Thompson doesn’t want the land anymore, I don’t think there’s anyone left who can challenge me.”“Why are you still not striking the hammer?”The auctioneer froze momentarily. A second later, she returned to her senses and waved her small hammer.“Land H from Lujiazui, fifteen billion dollars from Sir York!” she exclaimed, full of excitement.“Going once!”“Going twice!”“Going thrice!”“I now announce that Sir York has successfully owned Land H from Lujiazui!”The crowd exploded into an applause as loud as thunder.No matter how Harvey would end up later on, he would surely be known everywhere because of his fight against Hector.Several wealthy women were even giving Harvey looks of interest as they thought of ways to get closer to him and acquire his money before his untimely end. Hector, who was sitting in the middle of the row, stood up and gave Harvey a look of admira

The car went up the highway, then drove back to the uban district’s Fragrant Hill villa soon after.Right as it was about to head inside the villa’s garage, the driver suddenly slowed down.George Zabel, who was sitting in the front, frowned. “Sir York, there’s something wrong. The cops have the villa completely surrounded.”“Should we go to another place to rest for now, or…?”Harvey stared at the police cars with their shimmering lights and at the inspectors running around everywhere through the car window, his eyes narrowed.Something happened inside the villa—something big!After a while, Harvey sighed.“Our dear Young Master Thompson’s acting pretty recklessly now.”“Even so, his power’s quite impressive.”“How long has it been? Half an hour? He already planned for this to happen.”“Whether he planned this beforehand or after the auction, however, is up in the air.”“If he did all this after the auction, I have to admit that he’s quite powerful.”Harvey forwarded a t
