However, since the table was already full, she could only sit with Xyla.Lord Moore stood up to say a word of thanks before the birthday banquet started.As he was thanking the guests in his thank you speech, Lord Moore immediately said, “I would like to thank Master Wade for taking the time to come and attend my granddaughter, Jasmine’s birthday banquet today!”As soon as Lord Moore said this, the face of the third young master of the Koch family who was sitting at the main guest table turned black immediately.What the hell?!Did Lord Moore really not know how to act at all? He had especially driven all the way here to attend his granddaughter’s birthday banquet, but he could not even be bothered to put him in the first place when he was thanking his guests?As he thought about this, he could not help but glance at Charlie who was also seated at the main guest table.The kid looked so plain and unremarkable. So, he had no idea why Lord Moore seemed to favor him a lot.After L
Dylan wanted to compete directly with Charlie in public. Therefore, he spoke up at the main table as he said, “Master Wade, right? I heard that you have a nickname called The True Dragon. Is that true?”Charlie smiled indifferently before he replied, “The so-called ‘True Dragon’ is just a nickname given to me by some of my close friends here.”Dylan sneered before he replied sarcastically, “Master Wade, I am a little curious to know what birthday gift you prepared for Miss Jasmine today? A True Dragon like you will definitely not give her a cheap or ordinary gift, right?”Charlie laughed before he said, “To be honest, I didn't even know that Miss Jasmine would be celebrating her birthday today. After finding out about it, I hurriedly prepared a very simple gift for her as a token of my appreciation. Of course, my gift could never be compared to your gift, Mr. Koch.”The more modest or humble Charlie was, the more Dylan felt like slapping him in public.Hence, he refused to let Cha
Charlie smiled as he said, “Mr. Koch, to tell you the truth, the gift that I prepared for Miss Jasmine not only exceeds ten thousand dollars, but it is definitely worth even more than your necklace.”When Dylan heard this, he was furious and said, “Where the hell did you come from? You actually dare to be so pretentious in front of me?”Charlie smiled before he asked, “What are you going to do if the gift that I gave is indeed more expensive compared to your necklace?”Dylan snorted coldly before he said, “There are so many people present here today and they can all be our witness then. If the gift that you’ve given to Miss Jasmine is truly more expensive than the necklace I gave her, I will eat that necklace on the spot.”Charlie clapped his hands and smiled as he said, “Very well, then. It’s a deal.”Dylan frowned before he said, “Master Wade, what are you going to do if the gift that you gave to Miss Jasmine is not more expensive as mine?”Charlie smiled before he said, “If my
At this time, most of the people present were feeling a little worried for Charlie. Although everyone knew that Charlie was very capable and had a lot of accomplishments in the metaphysics field, they really did not believe that Charlie would be able to compete with Dylan when it came to money. The strength of the Koch family was indeed even much stronger compared to that of any big families in the South Region. Based on the assets owned by the Koch family, Dylan was really very strong and powerful.This was because no one in Aurous Hill could possibly defeat Dylan.In fact, no one in the whole South Region might be able to compare to him at all.Moreover, the twenty million US dollars ruby necklace could already be considered the best amongst all other ruby necklaces.Even a diamond that was the size of an egg might not even be worth that much.Thus, everyone could not help but wonder what could possibly be in the small gift box that Charlie had given to Jasmine that made him
Even Travis, who was sitting at the same table, was shocked and speechless!He was the richest man in Lancaster, and he was not any worse off compared to the Moore family in terms of their net worth.Moreover, he had already reached old age this year, and he could obviously feel that his body and physical health was much worse compared to before.This was irreversible no matter how much money was spent.So, Travis also dreamed to have the opportunity to take a Rejuvenating Pill too. He would not regret it even if he had to give up one-tenth of his assets in exchange for a Rejuvenating Pill.This was because he knew that other than the Rejuvenating Pill, there was no way he would be able to gain back twenty years of his youth even if he was willing to spend several billion dollars for it.The Macau gambling tycoon, Stanley Ho, was very rich. He was extremely wealthy and powerful, but even if he had all that money, he had no way to buy back his youth when he was already over ninety
In Dylan’s eyes, the Rejuvenating Pill that Charlie had given to Jasmine was just some inconspicuous pills.Even if it was really the Acetum Bezoardicum Pill that had rocket high prices in the Oskian medical profession, the most expensive top-grade Acetum Bezoardicum Pill was probably worth only a few hundred thousand dollars.Moreover, so what if Charlie’s so-called Rejuvenating Pill was indeed the Acetum Bezoardicum Pill?There was still a huge difference between the pill and his ruby necklace which was worth nearly one hundred and thirty million dollars.Therefore, Dylan could not help but feel that he had already defeated Charlie.After Dylan said those words arrogantly, he was originally waiting to receive everyone’s praise. However, he really did not expect everyone to stare at him as though they were looking at a mentally retarded person.They could not really blame him because he was the only person at this birthday banquet who did not know the value of this Rejuvenating
Jasmine naturally had to step up and defend her sweetheart when she saw him getting ridiculed by Dylan.At this moment, Charlie smiled indifferently before he took another Rejuvenating Pill out of his pocket. After that, he laughed as he said, “Look! I have plenty of this. It is naturally impossible for me to take back the Rejuvenating Pill I have already given to Miss Jasmine as a gift. The Rejuvenating Pill that I am going to auction now is this one!”With that, Charlie stood up before he spoke to everyone around him, “I believe all of you already know what the Rejuvenating Pill is. I will not give any further introduction to the Rejuvenating Pill. Instead, I will simply start the auction right now.”When everyone at the scene heard that Charlie was really going to auction the Rejuvenating Pill, they had an incredulous look on their faces.This was a magical drug that they would never be able to obtain elsewhere. Charlie had never agreed to sell this Rejuvenating Pill before, so
Initially, Dylan thought that he would be the ultimate winner. He was absolutely certain that no one would be willing to buy this so-called Rejuvenating Pill for 150 million dollars, but he was terribly wrong. He didn’t expect Travis Lane to give him a slap to the face with his actions.He turned and glanced at Travis, astoundment and shock written all over his face as he asked, “Mr. Lane, what do you mean?”Travis knew that Dylan came from an impressive background, but the Rejuvenating Pill was too tempting for him to own even if he had to offend the Koch family by doing so.Who would miss this precious chance of getting younger by 20 years old?!Even the Gods could not stop Travis from bidding for the pill, let alone a mere Dylan Koch.He looked back at Dylan and said flatly, “I’m sorry, Mr. Koch. I’ve longed for Master Wade’s miraculous Rejuvenating Pill for a long time. Now that the precious chance is right in front of my eyes, I cannot let it slip from my hand. Please forgive
