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

Chapter 3927

That also meant that Jordan had reached his limit, and wouldn't be able to continue bidding.

Despite all the odds stacked against him, Jordan was reluctant to give up without a hard fight. He thought to himself, 'The auction requires the payment to be made in half an hour. I'll think of some way in that time. Maybe I can gather the remaining funds elsewhere!' Jordan decided to take the risk. He raised his hand again and said, "I offer two hundred and ten billion US dollars!"

Jordan knew that this would be his last bidding for the night.

If Carlson continued to bid, he would have no choice but to admit defeat. When that happened, he would have to prepare to face his death and funeral.

His granddaughter Kathleen had gotten in touch with the owner of the Rejuvenating Pill for his sake. However, Jordan no longer pinned his hopes on Kathleen, not when the pill's price had reached this much. If he couldn't get it, then his granddaughter wouldn't be able to either. However, Jordan's assumptions were once again proven wrong when Carlson defied his expectations and continued to bid with no hesitation. "Two hundred and twenty billion US dollars!"

Jordan froze immediately, dumbfounded.

He finally realized why the auction was so insane. After all, it concerned a most precious asset: one's life.

Should you win, your life would go on. If you lost, it didn't matter if you have a net worth of hundreds of billions or trillions. Death waits for none. You would be standing still, waiting for the Grim Reaper to take you.

If your health and condition weren't at a critical state, you might still live for another year. By then, you might have a chance to return and take another shot to bid for the Rejuvenating Pill.

But for one like Jordan, his only choice was to live his final days and start preparing for his funeral.
