“What?”
All of them were astounded.
Even Simon, Sheena, and Melissa felt like they must have misheard her, not to mention Deputy
Dean Lucas.
After all, the place was noisy and everyone was basically only talking about the Carefree Pill.
Deputy Dean Lucas was the first to recover.
“What did you say? Are you kidding me?”
However, something seemed to click in Melissa’s mind and she whispered, “Nora, do you have the
Carefree Pill formula? I get it now! Your mother must have left it for you?!”
She had vaguely heard her husband mention before that Nora’s mother was the one who had
developed the Carefree Pill back then! Nora nodded.
“Yeah.I’ve already given it to Sheril.I reckon that we’ll be able to commence mass production in a
couple of days.”
She had thought that everyone would be excited after she said that, but Simon’s jaw was tense and
he didn’t say anything.
Sheena’s brows drew together tightly.
“Don’t talk nonsense outside when the product hasn’t been finished yet.As expected, a child like
you is simply unreliable.You can’t keep yourself calm and steady at all!”
The look in Nora’s eyes turned a little cold.

Wasn’t her second aunt being a little too hostile to her? The thought had only just formed when
Simon lowered his voice and said, “Nora, your mom only managed to make the Carefree Pills by
coincidence back then, and even so, only a batch of five pills was successfully produced.The
manufacturing process is a bit complicated and the success rate is extremely low.This is also the
reason why the Carefree Pills hadn’t been popularized back then.Even with the formula, it’ll be
difficult for us to mass produce it…”
At the sight of the awful looks on Simon and Sheena’s faces, Deputy Dean Lucas sneered, “Tsk.Are
you lusting for the Carefree Pill just because you saw that Mr.Myers has one? If the Carefree Pill
was something that any Tom, Dick, or Harry could make, Mr.Myers wouldn’t be treating the one he
has as the treasure of his shop!”
Not far away, another loud laugh reached them.
Everyone looked over to see Jon and Joel walking out together.
A relaxed look came over Jon’s features after he laughed.
He said, “That settles it then, Mr.Smith!”
Joel looked rather disappointed—it seemed like the talk just now hadn’t gone too well.
After nodding, he walked to the side with flagging interest and his interest in the conference became
rather lackluster.
Nora watched him.
Joel’s eyes were downcast at the moment and he had lost the warm smile he had just now.
Perhaps because he was thinking of his uncle’s condition, there was some sorrow and melancholy
on his handsome and elegant visage.
…
It was rather heart-wrenching to see him like that.
Nora found herself taken aback at the thought.
She had always been an apathetic person who’d rather make fewer friends if she could get more
sleep in return.
The empathy she felt today came rather inexplicably.
She shook her head, discarding the thoughts in her mind.
Someone nearby asked Jon, “Didn’t Mr.Smith buy the pill?”
Jon sighed and replied, “The pill actually doesn’t hold much use for Mr.Smith’s condition.He’s in
poor health and needs regular nourishment to nurse his health.A pill is of little use to him.”
Everyone understood now.
The Carefree Pill might be a lifesaver for others, but in the case of lan whose bodily functions were
barely supporting him, they needed one Carefree Pill per day to slowly nurse him back to health.
However, there was only a single pill left in the whole world now.
Thus, it was useless to him.Jon went on.
“However, we cannot ignore Mr.Smith’s condition, either.I’ve agreed to have Tina go over every day
to conduct health checkups on Mr.Smith”
This way, he wouldn’t offend the Smiths.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe sure was smart.
Someone nearby flattered him and said, “Dr.York is the last student you ever took in; there aren’t
many who can have her conduct health checkups on them every day now!”
“Now that modern medicine holds such a prominent place in society, traditional medicine has
become much less significant.The only thing we can be proud of now is the Myers Peace
Pharmacy! Mr.Myers, I’ve heard that it’s hard to get an outpatient appointment with you these days””
Someone suddenly changed the subject and asked, “Mr.Myers, how much are you selling that pill of
yours? Name your price!”
“Yes, that’s right! Mr.Myers, is that pill for sale?”
“I’d also like to buy it as a backup plan…”
A group of people flocked to Jon and surrounded him.
and for a time, the Myerses basked in the spotlight like none other.
Even Tina next to him was proud to be associated with them.
Jon smiled and said, “It’s not for sale! That’s the last pill we have, so it’s our shop’s treasure.”
Tina raised her chin and said gently, “Mr.Myers has been using a special preservation method on
the pill over the years.The cost of preserving it so that it won’t expire already costs about $150,000
per year…
“Hiss! That’s a lot of money! No wonder that pill still hasn’t spoiled even after 25 years..”
“With that pill, the Myerses can dominate the world of traditional medicine!”
