A Replacement Bride

Chapter 79

Joaquin and Katherine entered the manor one after another. As soon as they opened the door, there was a spacious living hall with many display shelves. On the shelves were numerous priceless antiques.

However, it seemed like Joaquin wasn't interested in those things. He walked across the living hall into a deeper area.

On the other hand, Katherine took a few glances at them before following behind Joaquin.

There was still approximately an hour left from the commencement of the auction, but many people had already arrived.

Joaquin's seat was in the first row. As Katherine followed behind him, they received quite a lot of attention on their way there.

"I heard that the bone marrow cleansing pill is one of the items listed in the auction today. Rumor has it that after we eat the pill, we can live an extremely long life. The effect is this good."

"I heard about it too. The buyer who bought the pill two years ago had cancer. After he took the pill, not only did he recover from cancer, he even looked ten years younger!"

"I even heard that the pill is just like a life elixir. No disease can harm you after you take the pill."

…

There were many people at the venue. A few of them were whispering in a voice just loud enough for Katherine to hear them.

When she listened to their discussion, the corners of her mouth started to twitch as she felt that these rumors were really ridiculous.

The bone marrow cleansing pill could only improve the person's health slightly, and they were just exaggerating it.

"Did you come to this auction today for the bone marrow cleansing pill too?" Something came across her mind, so she went over and asked Joaquin.

She was so close to him that her breath fanned against the side of his face. After clearing his throat, Joaquin nodded. "Yes."
