Chapter 1059 Rulent 133
The developer sold it for five hundred thousand per pill. Yet, in fact, it had already fetched a sky-high price at an underground auction.
“Five hundred thousand per pill? How much does this whole bottle cost?” Zoe's mind went blank for a moment.
Am I holding fifteen million in my hand?
Zoe suddenly realized and said with a flustered expression, “I... Ashlyn, I don't have that much cash with me. I need to go to the bank...”
“Mrs. Oates, I don't want the money.” Ashlyn interrupted Zoe's anxious voice.
“Old Mr. Oates was once my mother's teacher. Even now, he still thinks of her fondly. I'm very touched.”
Ashlyn smiled.
“Besides, I treat Trevor as my younger brother. Of course, I have to look after him!” Brianna stared at the transparent little porcelain bottle in shock.
How could there be so many Rulent 133? How is this possible? B
Brianna could not believe it as she took a few steps forward, almost unable to control her actions at that moment. She reached out, wanting to snatch the transparent little porcelain bottle from Zoe's hand. Zoe was startled and quickly took a few steps back. Considering Brianna's identity, Zoe suppressed her displeasure and annoyance. She forced a stiff smile and asked politely, “Ms. Jackovich, what are you doing? This bottle of medicine is worth a fortune. If you want to see it, why not just buy a few pills? With your family background, getting a few should be a piece of cake.”
Suddenly, Brianna snapped back to reality. Only then she realized what she had actually done. Brianna's face turned red. “I'm sorry, Mrs. Oates. I was a bit absent-minded just now. I wanted to see if this medicine is authentic.
After all, many counterfeit medicines are sold at high prices in the market. If it turns out to be fake... that would be too...” Zoe frowned. Her intuition made her strongly dislike what Brianna said, especially since the former had an inexplicable sense of trust in Ashlyn.
Zoe felt that given Ashlyn's character, the latter would not use fake medicine to fool her. As soon as Brianna finished speaking, several people who disapproved of Zoe and Trevor and were skeptical towards Ashlyn also began to embellish and chime in, “Yeah, is it real or fake?”
“How could anyone possibly take out so many Rulent 133 at once? Professor Yeatman talks about how amazing this medicine is, even when she couldn't get it, how could this woman obtain it?” “I don't believe it. I think it must be fake.”
“Exactly!” Everyone began to gossip at once. Each person chiming in one after another. Everyone seemed to have already concluded that the Rulent 133 in Ashlyn's hands was fake, and she used it to deceive people.
“Could it be just an ordinary health supplement? If I have one pill with me, I couldn't bear to give it away.”
“Yeah, there's so many in this small bottle. Is she really that generous? She seems a bit too generous, doesn't she?”
Unexpectedly, Lucas never thought Ashlyn would actually bring out a bottle of Rulent 133.
Not only was everyone shocked, but Lucas was also taken aback. That was no ordinary health supplement or a common type of wonder drug. That Rulent 133 was not something an ordinary person could possess.
A single pill on the black market would cause everyone to go crazy trying to grab it, let alone so many of them. Ashlyn lifted her eyelids, revealing her dark, deep-set eyes.
She yawned and said, “Sour grapes, huh? Not very interesting.”
Ashlyn was lazy to bother with Brianna. That woman had been inexplicably hostile towards her from the beginning as if she had stolen her lover.
Crazy!
Chloe suppressed the anger and jealousy in her. Her laboratory had been researching drugs similar to Rulent 133 and even better ones. She tried to seize the opportunity but still had not achieved any results. Chloe put on a fake smile and said to Zoe, “Mrs. Oates, how about this? Give me the bottle of medicine, and I'll take it back to analyze its ingredients. If it turns out to be Rulent 133, we can all rest assured. If it is, that's even better. If not, we can at least prevent Old Mr. Yates from suffering unnecessary harm.”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
