Jace's mouth was wide as saucers. He thought he was mishearing things. A commoner dared label the powerful Caspian family as trash?! "Hmph. Since you can't refute my words. That means I'm right" Drew sighed, like as if he was helpless over the situation. "Mr. Drew, I don't think this is a good idea" Diane secretly tugged at his arm. Her beautiful face was currently sweating profusely and her legs shaking underneath the flowery dress she wore. What was wrong with this guy? did he eat the gall of a tiger?! "Don't worry. It's fine" Drew smiled confidently. With the vast amount of deci points he had, he was pretty confident in himself. "Maybe I'll just swat whatever Caspian family patriach to death. That would make a pretty good headline, hehe' he thought proudly to himself. Jace finally found his bearings. He so much wanted to pummel this brat to death, however he was in a public place. If the media recorded him bullying a commoner, it would sully his family reputation.He took
"Bring the items forward!"Just after Amelia spoke, the door swung open. A burly man wearing a mask walked into the office, holding a huge box. Behind him were two additional well built men who took their stand behind Drew."Miss Amelia? what is the meaning of this?" Drew frowned."Ah, Mr. Drew, don't take offense. Many people have bid so much but when it reaches time for them to pay, we discover that they are just paupers with big mouths. This is just a preventive safety measure. Mr. Drew should please bear with it"Drew sneered inwardly when he heard these words."Is Miss. Amelia insinuating that I cannot pay up?""Time will tell" Amelia flashed him another lovely smile.Adding the five hundred million you bid on that unknown rock, plus your earlier bid on that medicinal herb the jade eyed ginseng, your total bid amounted to a whooping of eight hundred million. How do you wish to proceed with the payment?"After Amelia finished speaking, she studied Drew intently.If the latter showe
"So, what are you going to do now?" Amelia asked Drew curiously.They were currently at her garden, sipping from their seperate mugs oe steamy tea.'Aha! life is good' Drew relished on the taste of the tea.Days ago, he would never have expected to take a whiff of such an expensive coffe, talkless of drinking it.He had the system to thank for giving him such privilages."Well, I am looking for some ingredients" he replied.Amelia dropped her mug, her interest was piqued."Didn't you find them at the auction?""Nah. I only found the jade eyed ginseng. There are four more remaining"Amelia fell into silence."They must be so rare"Drew just shrugged. He had no idea how rare they were, he was just following instructions from the system.'The rarer they are, the more expensive they will be right?' Drew wouldn't pass on an opportunity to spend money."I think i know a way to help" Amelia said suddenly, although her tone lacked confidence."You know of a way? tell me quick!" Drew's eyes fla
"Ahahahahahahaha" Drew panted heavily as big lumps of sweat rolled down his face. After much efforts, he finally raised all his stats to level one. However, it wasn't easy. Throughout his breakthrough, he went through pains that he had never experienced in his life. Although he still had more deci points capable of making him level up, he refused to do so. The pain he went through was still fresh in his mind. "Are you okay?" Amelia asked, from besides him. "Hah. It was just an allergy of mine. I hate cars with air conditioners" Drew lied. "Oh" Amelia swiftly instructed her Driver to switch off the air conditioner. Few minutes later, the driver informed them - "We're here!" Drew looked through the window and saw a huge gate made of pure solid gold. It seemed to be piercing through the sky, totally concealing what was hidden behind it. "Isn't that pure gold?" Drew unconsciously murmured. "Hm. Mr. Callahan is known for being one who lives a life of luxury""Plus this golden gat
Steve held his cheeks which had an obvious red hand print. He glared daggers at the culprit."Brat! you are so dead!"Drew sneered in response."Why am i still standing alive and kicking?"He wasn't scared of Steve retaliating. He secretly used 'Analysis' on the latter. The results showed he just had the combat strength of a peak athlete.He wasn't even a Deviant.Steve huffed and left, ashamed to show his face to the public after suffering such humilation.Worst of all, he couldn't do anything about. Judging by his attacker's speed, he was definitely a Deviant.After Steve left, the garden went back to it's usual liveliness. The earlier rucus was just a farce."You.. You shouldn't have done that!" Amelia bit her lips, her expression scrunched up with worry."Did what exactly?" Drew threw a piece of grilled meat into his mouth, munching on it with relish.Amelia became incensed when she saw Drew's unbothered reaction."You shouldn't have slapped Steve! atleast not in such a public plac
"Who said that? May i know which expert it is? Perhaps, I'll be able to learn a few things" Julian's lips curled up sarcastically as he glared at the crowd below him."I Dare not call myself an expert. However, I am confident that young master Julian had the wrong diagnosis" Drew fiddled with an empty glass cup.He instantly became the center of attention."Isn't that the guy who caused a ruckus earlier?""He's pretty bold to dare lecture young master Julian""Pah, I bet he's just a clout chaser, seeking young miss Charlotte's attention"Drew remained unfazed as the insults thrown at him. He had been through much worse scenerios back during his high school and college days.He had unknowingly cultivated an immunity to such jeerings.Julian studied Drew. Judging by his appearance, he was bound to be somebody of high status."May I know this young master's name?""My name isn't important. Curing Mr. Callahan is"Julian clicked his tongue."But just now, you said my diagnosis was wrong. D
The banquet lasted till evening. It was a real eye opener for Drew. Recalling the expensive gifts Mr. Callahan recieved, he felt mad with rage. If only he could buy them all! As for Julian, Drew found him really accomodating. He wasn't proud nor arrogant, although he had a bit of over confidence. However, they hit the road quite well. They even exchanged contacts and promised to be in touch. Soon, it was only Mr. Callahan, Charlotte, Drew and Amelia left at the banquet table. "It's getting late. I think i must take my leave now" Drew attempted to stand up. However, Mr. Callahan swiftly interjected. "How can i not show hospitality to my benefactor? may i be bold enough to implore that young master Drew pass the night at my place?" Mr. Callahan was quite respectful. He believed that Drew had a powerful backing. Drew shrugged and turned towards Amelia. "Will you accompany me tonight?" Everyone had weird expressions when they heard Drew's ambiguous words."That.. that's not wh
Angela walked into Star Times hospital, stopping at the receptionist booth."How may i help you?" the female receptionist flashed her warmest smile, exposing two dimples on her cheeks."I want to see the main Doctor. Is he in?" Angela demanded haughtily."You mean Doctor Collins? pardon me but do you have an appointment with him?""Do i need to book an appointment to see someone?" Angela hissed with annoyance.How dare this lowly receptionist reject her? does she know who she is?!The female receptionist coughed lightly, in an attempt to easen the heavy situation."It's the norm around here. Nobody is exempted"Angela's rage rose to the top. Her nose flared up as she slapped her palms on the counter desk."Insulting! never in my life have i felt so insulted!"Due to Angela's exaggerated outburst, she succeeded in alerting everyone in the hospital.Nurses and Doctors trooped into the lobby area, curious at as what the commotion was all about."Is there a problem madam?" Doctor Collins
"Why won't you accept the business proposal? I mean.. it would be in your favor right? you'd have the chance to forge a relationship with my master. Don't tell me you are the short sighted kind of person" this time, Drew no longer sounded confident as his palm became sweaty. "I know that. But if you keep on acting like you have all the winning cards in your pocket, then I'd have to decline. Don't think you can fool me. This is most likely a test given to you by your master so he won't be involved in it unless he sees tangible results. Isn't that right?" Loveth scoffed. "Uhhmm. R-Right " Drew nodded awkwardly. "Well, I think I would be able to improvise then. I'll accept your business proposals " "Really?" hearing that the other party had accepted, Drew's eyes sprang up with joy. With the full support of Silver Eagle Auction House, it would only be a matter of time before he dominates the Herbal market of North Heights. However Loveth's next words dampened his short termed exc
Giving Drew one long look like as if trying to read what was going on in his mind, Loveth collected the jade bottle from him before proceeding to uncork it. And when she did, the whole office became encased in a thick but rich pleasant scent. "This.. This is herbal adorant!" Her eyes lit up in amazement. Although she wasn't a Divine Physician herself, as the manager of Silver Eagles Auction House, it was only natural that she'd be in the company of a few Divine Physicians once in a while. She had even watched some of them brew medicines and according to them, only highest grade medicines could emit a wonderful scent in the air, called adorant. "Looks like you are well informed" Drew chuckled, while inwardly feeling shocked. After all, it was only after he had upgraded the skill *Ancient Shamanic Medicine* to the max did he finally knew what adorant meant in the field of medicine. "Judging by the intensity of the adorant being emitted.. this is a high quality medicine. Were y
"Eh?" Drew stared at the other party, unable to understand why she was rejecting him from meeting up with Loveth. "May I ask the reason why?" he asked. "Well, you are probably not from this city so you might not know this. This building is just one of the storehouses owned by Silver Eagles Auction House. It was only used to host the auction event days ago. After that, Madame Loveth returned back to the head office of Silver Eagles Auction House. I am the Manager of this store house. My name is Patricia Holmes" the chubby lady revealed. "Oh, I didn't know that" Drew nodded in understanding. "So where exactly is the headquarters located?".. "The young master called for me?" Currently inside a large balcony, a youngster sat comfortably on a throne like chair, sipping merrily from the glass of wine being fed to him by a female clad in scanty clothing. At his other side was another scantily dressed female feeding him chips while another scantily dressed female was was huddled in
"How long was I out?" Drew mumbled as he got up from the cold tiles glancing at the Jade bottle which was lying beside him. After brewing the medicine, he became so exhausted that he decided to take a nap to replenish his lost energy. However the nap ended up becoming a really long sleep. Picking up the jade bottle, he uncorked it and smiled in satisfaction when he saw the slightly purplish liquid inside. "I just have to hand this over to Loveth. I wonder what her reaction is going to be like when she learns of it's uses" he grinned, while carefully tucking the jade bottle inside his pocket. Leaving the refining room, he just happened to bump into Rosalie, clad in a school uniform. "Hm?" Rosalie's brows jumped in joy when she saw Drew. "You finally came out!" she beamed. "How long did I spend inside?" Drew inquired. "Two days. Big sis become worried and wanted to check up on you, however Mother forbade her from doing so. She was afraid that we would interfere with what you w
"Interesting. Did the young man really say that?" "Indeed father. And the most surprising fact is that he's so young. If I am not mistaken, he isn't past his mid twenties.. do you think he's the main deal or he was merely shooting off his mouth?" Currently inside a large study room, Old Man Benson and his Daughter; Loveth, sat together, occupying the only sofa in the study. Loveth had just finished recounting her meeting with Drew to her father. She wanted to seek his guidance on the matter. "What do you think?" Old Man Benson smiled as he asked his daughter of her opinion. "I really don't know whether I should believe him or not. After all from his words, he was hinting that he was going to brew the 'amazing product' " "But he's just too young. There's no way he can match up to Medicine Priest Harland's expertise which has been honed through many years of experience.." "But some how, my instincts keeps telling me to trust him" she sighed. "So that means this is a conflict be
After breakfast with the Mick Family, Drew headed towards the Medicine Refinement room he had used the previous day to brew the antidote for Mr. Mick's Sun Curse. When he arrived there, he was met with the sight of packaged boxes neatly arranged. These were the ingredients that he had requested from Loveth the previous day. "Let's get to work" he cracked his knuckles as he took in a deep breath before he began opening the packaged boxes. . . When Boss Jay exited his mansion, he was met with a shocking sight. Lying around helplessly were his underlings And the most scary part was that they were all bleeding from the severe injuries they had on their body. The whole premises of the mansion plunged into silence. The only thing that could be sensed in the air was the strong iron smell of blood as well as deep resentment. "So you are the boss of this place?" a baritone voice broke the silence at that moment, causing Boss Jay to tilt his head towards the direction from where t
Yawning heavily, Drew got up from the bed he had used to pass the night. Rubbing the dirt off the corners of his eye, he sighed deeply. He could still feel that his depleted martial energy had not yet been fully replenished. Looks like the Artic Soothing solution had taken much from him than he had anticipated. "I wonder if the packages have arrived?" he mumbled as he made his way towards the bathroom to freshen up... Old Man Benson was clad in tracksuit as he watered the vegetable plants in his garden at a steady pace. If an outsider came, they would be shocked to discover that this seemingly ordinary man was once one of the top big shots in North Heights, as well as the father of two of the most influential individuals in the city. Five minutes passed when he sudden sighed as he stopped what he was doing. "I wonder how long you are going to keep standing there eh?" he slowly said. "Heh. Is it a crime to watch my dear father as he goes about his business?" a pearl of laughte
Although this might sound hypocritical but I am really sorry for not updating for weeks. I was too busy with my other new book The Vampire System that I neglected this one and I am truly sorry for that. Anyways, I am here to announce I am back in business and hope to update daily. As an apology, I will be dropping two free chapters. Yes! You won't need to use coins to unlock the two chapters. I hope you all forgive me for my inconsistency. You don't deserve it. The same applies to my other Book The Centillionaire Heir.. Oh, and don't forget to check out my other Book The Vampire System.. And don't take the name to heart, it mostly has the theme of an urban fantasy with Hero like People known as Sentries.. just give it a read.. you won't regret it. Plus it has daily updates as well!
"How was it?" Currently the whole Mick family were gathered around Mr Caleb lying on a white bed in his room, with eager expressions. "What are you saying Rosalie? your father just drank the medicine. There's no way he would suddenly recover, right?" Although it sounded like a chastisement, Mrs. Mick was actually asking of Drew's opinion. "Sigh. The Sun Curse is a deadly ailment" Drew who was standing a few feets away, holding an empty bowl, sighed. "Although the antidote I brewed was a powerful one, Mr. Mick won't recover instantly. He still needs two days worth of rest before he can return back to normal. " "I'd advise that you give him his space during those two days. Not only that, ensure to change his diet.. he shouldn't eat meat or anything that was cooked or stir fried" he advised. "But my dad hates vegetables" Tom frowned with worry. "Well, then he has to learn how to enjoy eating them. Although he can substitute vegetables with fruits " Drew replied. "Thank you ver
