Chapter 434

What? Sandra's eyes went wide. She dropped the watermelon in her hand, and its juice splattered everywhere on the floor. Her heart was shattered just like the watermelon. She mumbled, "That's 100 million dollars! How is that book worth so much? Oh my goodness, I sold it for less than 100 million dollars.

"I always ask myself why Renae thinks the medical literature is more precious than finding a partner. It turns out to be so much money. Damn it. The buyer tricked me." Standing at the side, Donna changed the way she looked at Renae as if she was seeing Renae for the first time. Renae actually possessed a book worth 100 million dollars.

After recovering from the shock, Donna held Sandra's arm. "Stop crying, Mom. Think carefully about who you sold the medical literature to. We have to get it back."

Sandra wiped away her tears and nodded in agreement. "Yes! We absolutely need to get the book back. I've seen the guy a lot. He's always wandering around this area, collecting old books, bottles, and boxes. He must live nearby." Matthew didn't have the time to argue with Sandra. Finding the book was what mattered. With the details Sandra had provided, Matthew had a rough idea of who she had sold it to.

"You're not saying a junk collector took your book, are you?"

Even if the buyer offered 10 thousand dollars, it was still a lot of money. If a junk collector acquired it, that was just ridiculous. Sandra nodded. "A junk collector took it. He used to be out every day collecting cardboard boxes, bottles, and old TVs.

medicine. It featured jaw-dropping acupuncture techniques like the 13 Phantom Needles and a groundbreaking bloodletting treatment. Besides that, the medical literature included the earliest form of psychological therapy, where emotions were used to address the issue and heal. Yet, it ended up being sold as junk. However, Matthew didn't have time to be mad and quickly said to Sandra, "We need to track down the person who bought the book. Let's head to the local junkyard and see if we can find anything." With that, Sandra, Donna, and Renae got in the backseat, whereas Matthew took the front seat beside the driver. Trevor took the wheel, and they headed straight to the closest junkyard. Around ten minutes later, they arrived at a run-down yard that used to be an old factory. For some reason, half of it had been demolished, but no one knew why the work had stopped. At the entrance, there was a foam box with "scrap collection" scrawled
