Frank said, “It’s pointless even if you buy the polypore, Cindy. I can help you with any
condition you have and pay you on top of that.”
Cindy snorted in disdain. “You, help me? Who do you think you are?! Also, I’m plenty
healthy!

She had always belittled because he had nothing to his name and thought Helen was blind
when she married him.
It was certainly smart of her to divorce him!
On the other hand, Frank was speechless. “Why would you buy it if you’re not sick?”
Cindy reared her chin at him. “I’m presenting it as a gift to Ms. Salazar. She needs it, and
she just might appoint me a direct broker when her family starts marketing the Beauty
Pill.”
“It’s not going to sell.” Frank chuckled. “Sell the polypore to me, and I’ll appoint you the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbroker of a pill that would sell even better.”
It was no empty promise–his Reinvigoration Pill would definitely outsell the Beauty Pill, if
not render it worthless.
Cindy, however, snorted. “You’re so full of it. I won’t take whatever you make, even if
you’re giving it away for free!”
Beside her, Gina was even less willing to concede the panacea polypore to Frank.
She had always hated the man, and even if the price tag of five million dollars hurt, she
was only further motivated to see Frank disappointed.
As such, she said, “I’ll pay you right now, Mr. Wicker.”
“Alright!” Johnny nodded repeatedly.
“Wait!” Kenny said just then. “Mr. Wicker, since you haven’t sold it yet, I shall make a ten
million dollar bid.”
“What?” Johnny paused.
Ten million dollars was no small sum–even if Cindy and the others came first, no one would
say no to money!
Turning toward Cindy, he smiled. “Why don’t you wait a little longer, Ms. Zonda? I promise
to see you the next panacea polypore that comes into our store…”
“You can’t do this, Mr. Wicker!” Cindy snapped, utterly disgruntled.
“That’s so dishonest of you!” Gina joined in.
“Yes, it’s my fault,” Johnny admitted without qualms. “I’ll sell it to you next time.”
Gina was left gritting her teeth, and she soon snapped, “Twenty million!”
“Mom…” Helen gulped and tried to pull her backward–there was no need to go that far for
an herb!
However, Gina was not one to take it lying down, and Cindy was smiling smugly. “Well
done,

Aunt Gina!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFrank was frowning and turned toward Kenny. “How much do you have, Mr. Sparks?”
“Just ten million…” Kenny admitted, since he did not bring everything he had.
Frank took a deep breath. “Thirty million.”
“Forty million!” Cindy shouted even before Johnny could react.
Even Gina’s face fell. “Do you have that much money, Cindy?”
“No. Just borrow it to me for now, Aunt Gina,” Cindy said as it was perfectly natural.
Gina pursed her lips–she did have that much, but that was also all she had!
Helen quickly reasoned, “A single herb is not worth forty million, Cindy…”
They certainly could buy something better to earn Ms. Salazar’s favor!
“What are you saying “?” Gina exclaimed, frowning. “Are you saying my family can’t afford
this much?”
“Uh…” Helen was left speechless.
She was just trying to be reasonable, and Cindy made it sound as if she was belittling
her…
On the other hand, Gina gritted her teeth and stamped her feet. “Helen meant nothing by
it. It’s just forty million–we’ll buy it!”
