Frederick Duncanâs aged face was as ugly as it could be. Frederick had advanced gastric cancer. It
was not easy for him to meet a god-like figure such as Master Rockefeller. It was akin to finding a ray of
light in the darkness that was life, and it was also the last bit of hope he could cling onto. As the richest
man in West California, his net worth was about trillions.
Naturally, he didnât want to die so soon. If he could extend his life with money, heâd be willing to use up
half of his family fortune!
âFour!â
âThree! â
With Xyla Stoermer counting down, Frederick was running out of time.
Frederick looked at Alex Rockefeller with a panicked expression upon his face. However, he
discovered that Alex was sitting on the stool, only caring about eating the food on the table. It seemed
as if Alex had already silently agreed to what Xyla said. Meanwhile, the destruction of the Johansson
family was still fresh in Frederickâs mind.
Ba-dump!
Frederick gritted his teeth and knelt too.
âMaster Rockefeller, I know Iâm at fault, but youâve personally promised to cure me of my cancer. You
canât go back on your words!â Frederick exclaimed.
He was making a bet on the fact that, since Alex had become an expert at such a young age, heâd be
too young and vigorous to withstand the taunting.
Frederick was threatening Alex with his reputation in hopes that he could achieve his objective.
Otherwise, Frederick wouldnât be able to survive more than two months.
Alex took a sip of soymilk.
At first, Alex had decided to cure Frederick of his illness. However, the things this old man said made
Alex unhappy. Alex glanced at Frederick indifferently. âHead of Duncan family, are you threatening
me?â
Frederick lowered his head. âI wouldnât dare! I believe you are a man of your words. Besides, Iâm willing
to offer 300 billion as a gift of thanks for saving me, Master Rockefeller!â
300 billion!
When Frederick mentioned this figure, never mind Zander Magellan, even Xyla Stoermer gasped in
surprise.
To many people, this was an astronomical amount of money as a reward.
Even a shameless person like Madame Claire Assex was willing to worship Alex for the rest of her life
for the sake of ten billion dollars. Even if it were someone else, who would be able to pass up such a
huge temptation? It was likely that over 90% of people would be willing to do so.
The remaining 10% of people were probably all rich folks.
When Frederick heard the womenâs surprised gasps, he instantly felt happy on the inside.
He secretly chuckled coldly. âIndeed, I can do anything with money. I donât care if you are martial arts
experts or Cultivation Gurus, or even some Immortal Doctor. Before my massive wealth, youâre all
trash! All of you are my slaves!â Frederick thought.
However, right then, Frederick heard Alexâs voice. â300 billion? Do you think my medical skills are only
worth 300 billion? Originally, I had already prepared to give you the pill for your advanced cancer. Look,
this is the pill!â
Alex then walked over to the wine cabinet and retrieved a small porcelain bottle. âThis is called a
rejuvenation pill. I recently succeeded in refining it. After eating this, never mind advanced cancer; even
if you have one foot in the coffin, it could still save you! However, with your attitude in seeking medical
treatment, Iâve changed my mind. Iâll coin a popular term these days. My medical skills arenât that
cheap!â Alex said.
With that, Alex placed the pill in front of Carey Stoermer.
âAuntie, take this pill! Do it right now!â Alex said.
âHuh?â Carey froze for a moment. âBut Iâm not sick!â
âThis pill can cure illnesses and also strengthen oneâs body if youâre not ill. Oh, right. I forgot to say.
The rejuvenation pill has another effect. It allows one to become ten years younger! That means that
you can become ten years younger, Auntie,â Alex said.
âHuh? Is this kind of magical effect possible?â Xyla also exclaimed.
âYouâll see it later.â Alex chuckled.
Daya Stoermer completely believed in Alex. âMom, take it. Iâd like to see how you look if you were to be
ten years younger. Perhaps, you might even look younger than me,â Daya instantly said.
