The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Chapter 3926

Resentment flooded Jordan's heart, coursing through his veins. He simply couldn't fathom as to why Carlson would compete with him. The man was forcing him to the verge of collapse.

Carlson clearly knew about Jordan's circumstances. On top of that, they had been acquainted with each other for some time. Though they couldn't be considered bosom friends, must Carlson act so ruthlessly? Jordan's life would be coming to an end in perhaps just several days after this auction. If he missed his chance to acquire the pill, his life would be over.

Carlson was only in his fifties. Why must h e compete with Jordan so?

If Carlson needed the Rejuvenating Pill, he could easily wait until the next year's auction.

Jordan felt that Carlson's relentlessness was intended to kill him.

Carlson, meanwhile, had his hands tied. He was quite helpless in facing the current predicament, but he had his own reasons despite knowing Jordan's plight. As such, he had no choice but to continue competing for the pill with Jordan. Jordan was aware that he would soon reach the limits of his funds. His emotions crumbled, and he was close to breaking down. His confident tone was reduced to a trembling stutter as he bid, "One. one hundred and seventy billion." Chandler was sitting in the first row. He was normally a taciturn man, but the fierceness of the competition compelled him to speak. Sighing, he muttered to himself, "Jordan's doomed... How can he win?"

Carlson was about to make his next bid when his subordinate interrupted him and asked in a low whisper, "Master, shouldn't you confirm the question before bidding? Otherwise, wouldn't it be...?"

Carlson brushed him away and cut him off sternly, "I have to win against Lord Fox before that! Otherwise, my conditions won't be tempting to the creator of the pill."

He let out a small sigh and shook his head, helplessly. With grim determination, he said, "Forget it! I should just go all out and crush Lord Fox's hopes of winning as soon as I can."
