Chapter 302
Hugo smiled slightly, while Zeb introduced, “Mr. Goodman, this is Cindy Zonda, cousin of
Helen Lane of Lane Holdings. I’ve mentioned her before.”
“Oh… Ms. Zonda.” Hugo nodded and turned to tease Zeb, “You lucky dog. It’s a different
girl from every other event!”
“Haha… don’t tease me now, Mr. Goodman.” Zeb chuckled and soon asked, “Now, about
the distributor rights…”
Hugo’s expression turned solemn at the mention of business. “Every major family in the
Central Steppe is here to make a bid. It’s going to be a bloodbath.”
“I understand,” Zeb quickly said. “But I’m sure we can make an arrangement since we go
way back, Mr. Goodman. Moreover, Lane Holdings is also taking part–Ms. Zonda here has
long been an admirer of yours.”
Hugo smiled and clapped him on the shoulder. “Don’t worry–I made a promise, and I’ll

Zeb was delighted. “Thank you. So, how many pills are we talking about?”
“To be honest, I can’t get you the real deal,” Hugo said. “But I’ve been noticing that during
the pill refinement process, a lot of defective pills would be produced. Those were
supposed to be returned to the cauldron to be reprocessed, but I’ve been stashing them.
There are around five thousand of these… If you want the whole lot, just twenty million
dollars will do.”
Zeb was shocked.
Even if those Rejuvenation Pills were defective, they would still sell since it was still in hot
demand.
If anything, five thousand was not that many–and each Rejuvenation Pill was selling for a
whooping fifty grand apiece right now!
Zeb would be making bank with this deal!
“That’s fantastic, Mr. Goodman. I’ll take the whole lot!” He grinned.
He had no intention of becoming a legitimate distributor anyway–he would be gone as
soon as he made his profit..
As for what came after, it was none of his business.
Huge nodded at his eagerness. “That’s good. You can come with me to get the pills once
this bid event is over.”
However, Frank had been listening to them from a distance and was actually shocked to
hear that the bastard was stashing defective Rejuvenation Pills,
Since he could not prevent the occasional defective pill from every cauldron he used
himself, he could let that slide.
On the other hand, if those five thousand Rejuvenation Pills found their way into the
market, it was going to inflict a huge blow to the confidence in the product.
The first wave of distributors were inevitably bigwigs, and they would not take the bullet

With that, Frank strode up to them and demanded, “Why were those pills not returned for
reprocessing or disposed of?”
The trio did a double take, surprised Frank was suddenly questioning them.
Although Hugo was shocked since he would be in deep trouble if his bosses found out, he
narrowed his eyes and growled coldly, “Who the hell are you?”
Cindy promptly snapped at Frank in turn, “Get out of here, Frank! This is none of your
business!”
At the same time, Zeb quickly said, “That’s Helen Lane’s ex–husband. They’re already
divorced, so he holds a grudge and wants to sabotage all Lane Holdings business.”
Hugo promptly breathed a sigh of relief–as long as it was not a Turnbull!
“I’m asking you a question,” Frank growled coolly at Hugo just then.
“Just stop already!” Zeb bellowed at him. “I’m warning you–don’t you dare start it here!”
