The Second Life of a Discarded Heiress

Chapter 516

Kali's lips curled into a satisfied smile as she watched the crowd's confused expressions. “Of course it's real," she announced, her voice ringing with pride. "But the ingredients needed to make NecroBlitz Tablets are incredibly rare and hard to come by. The process itself is also extremely complex. So far, our Glenwood family has managed to produce only this one tablet. I brought it here today to auction it off for a good price and to help fund education for young girls in remote areas."

Someone in the crowd spoke up. "Ms. Glenwood, did you develop the NecroBlitz Tablets yourself?"

Kali paused for a split second, then smiled faintly and nodded. "Yes, I did. I'm the one who developed NecroBlitz Tablets."

Theo stared at his sister in disbelief, shock flickering in his eyes.

Just yesterday, Kali had come to him in tears, begging him to steal the NecroBlitz Tablet from Scales' room. Why was she lying now?

But the guests didn't doubt Kali's claim. After all, everyone in Crestwood knew about her talent and beauty. She was the pride of Crestwood University-a well- known prodigy. Though her major was literature, she'd also minored in biopharmaceuticals. It wasn't so far-fetched to believe she'd created the NecroBlitz Tablets herself.

Now, the guests' attitudes towards Kali had changed completely. Those who'd offended her in the Glenwood family because of Citrine were filled with regret.

Vitaflux was good, but it couldn't compare to NecroBlitz Tablets; the need for the latter was far greater.

Cases of Al syndrome were everywhere these days, and once the illness reached its advanced stages, there was almost no hope. Chemotherapy left patients exhausted and in pain, and in the end, death was inevitable. But NecroBlitz Tablets could eradicate cancer cells from the body-even late-stage patients, provided they were physically strong enough, had a chance for survival if they took it.

Owning a NecroBlitz Tablet could mean saving your own life—or a loved one's— at a critical moment. All eyes in the room were fixed on that single tablet on the stage; those with sick relatives at home were filled with desperate longing.
