The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 3928

Three hundred billion US dollars! Many in the hall almost fainted at the insane offer.

However, their curiosity was roused. Who was Carlson? How was he able to pay so much money?

Not only that, but he even offered an additional eighty billion US dollars just to take the pill with him. Was he buying the pill for someone else?!

Jasmine began to panic. Charlie was the one who set the rule where the bidder must eat the pill immediately upon winning. However, Carlson's offer came with an additional eighty billion US dollars. That alone had already exceeded the Moore family's total net worth. That, and Jasmine couldn't possibly make any decisions on Charlie's behalf!

In the control room, Isaac was completely stunned by Carlson's offer. He turned to Charlie and gulped nervously, and asked with a stammer, "S-sir... This ...What should we do...?'

Charlie watched Carlson through the surveillance camera and smiled slightly." Those who want to take the pill home only have two objectives. They either want to give it to someone else, or try to replicate the medicine."

Charlie then added, "I think he's buying it for someone else."

Then, he picked up the walkie-talkie and instructed Jasmine, "Jasmine, reject him! Also, remind him of the rules. In this auction, rules and fairness trump everything else. Give him two choices. He can either pay up and eat the pill right away, or give up his winning bid." Jasmine was shocked to hear Charlie's decision. She didn't expect him to reject eighty billion US dollars without hesitation!

But now that Charlie had made his decision, she knew she was in no place to comment.

Having received his instructions, Jasmine turned to Carlson Hobbs and said coldly," Number 99, our rules have been stated clear as day. Anyone who has won the bidding for the pilt must consume it at once. This rule will not be changed! In our auction, rules and fairness trump everything else!"

Jasmine's words pushed the crowd into turmoil. Who would have expected the organizer to give up eight hundred billion US dollars just to uphold his rules?!

That was so crazy! Why was the organizer s o ridiculously stubborn?

Carlson was slightly startled as well. He initially assumed that the organizer wouldn't be able to resist the temptation. He never imagined that he would be rejected so quickly.

Carlson gritted his teeth, still

intending to fight. He raised his voice, "Is the amount too little? Alright, then! I'll offer an additional twenty billion! If you allow me to take this pill with me, I'll pay three hundred and twenty billion!

Without a second's delay, Charlie immediately told Jasmine, "Jasmine, give him a warning. If he says anything more before the payment is made, chase him out of the hall as per the rules."

Jasmine immediately warned Carlson, Number 99! From now on, if you mention anything irrelevant to the payment for the auctioned pill and continue to ignore the rules, I'll have to let the guards escort you out."

Carlson stood still, dumbfounded. He offered an additional hundred billion US dollars, but even that wasn't enough to move the man behind the Rejuvenating Pill to change his rule?!

Who was this man? Why was he so unbending when it came to his rules?!

Carlson was at loss. He didn't know what to do.

He quickly thought to himself, 'I came today to investigate the truth of the Rejuvenating Pill. If it's really effective. go back and inform him.' 'If it's as miraculous as the rumors said, I must buy it at allcost. I must! If I bought it but can't bring it back, and end up spending two hundred and twenty billion just to eat it immediately, how can I answer to my family?'

'I'm still young. If I spend so much money and eat the pill in front of everyone, they'll be unhappy and get jealous. That'll just cause more trouble.'
