The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu Chapter 705

"Fine. | guess we'll see." The woman sneered, clearly hostile toward Frank and Trevor.

Trevor was going to argue, but Frank stopped him. "Don't cause a mess. We're here for the auction."

Trevor snorted coolly. "Well, we're letting her off easy."

His business operated mainly abroad, but he still had strong influence in Draconia. How else could he have

investigated the Leaf family so quickly?

Meanwhile, auction items were quickly leaving the table, and the more important ones were now being

presented.

Soon, Frank found himself staring a fist-sized yellowed tree root, laying still in a chest cushioned in red velvet

cloth.

"Look, Mr. Lawrence! Isn't that the Hyperion Root?!" Trevor exclaimed excitedly, not noticing the frown on Frank's

face.

Jenny Leaf—Bail's daughter and emcee of the auction—personally introduced the item. "Honored guests, the

next item is one of my father's most precious pieces, and it's often presented for appraisal: a Hyperion Root,

which represents the wood element of the Five Elemental Wonders. It is an object of utter rarity, and it wasn't

easy for my late father to acquire it."

Jenny then lifted the sandalwood chest over her head, while the cameras zoomed in on the Hyperion Root.

As she gently brushed her fingers over the herb, a yellow radiance emanated from it, coupled with a strange

sweetness that everyone in the auction hall could smell.

Under the illumination of the stage lights, the unordinary root revealed its true essence—a herb gleaming bright

in green and yellow hues.

"It really is the Hyperion Root! | will have it!"

The woman beside Frank sprang to her feet, her eyes flashing in yearning and delight as she shook in thrill.

It turned out that she was not the only one interested either—once the Hyperion Root was presented and proved

genuine, everyone in the auction hall grew restless, their eyes twinkling as they stared at it.

At the stime, Jenny continued, "It has been a precious part of my father's collection, and I'm sure everyone

here knows its worth. Without further ado, | hereby announce that the bid starts at a hundred million, and each

subsequent bid must be a million or more.

"And the bid starts... now!"

At Jennys call, the air in the room beccharged.

"101 million!"

"Hah! Your bid is terrible... 110 million!"

"Stop fighting! It's mine! 180 million!"

Shouts making bids boomed from every corner of the hall, with more joining the competition by the minute,

while others simply enjoyed the .

Smen had clearly cafter hearing rumors of a Hyperion Root being auctioned and prepared a huge sum

in hopes their bid was successful.

Everyone knew how rare the Five Elemental Wonders were, as centuries could pass without any being found.

That was why the price for the Hyperion Root would never depreciate, just as anyone who bought it could sell it

for several times the price they bought it for!

Naturally, there were elderly individuals who loved anything that promoted longevity, and that included the

longevity farming trip that Frank had proposed.

They would not even bat an eyelid if they had to spend their entire fortune, as long as they could live another

few more years.
