Chapter 191
There was a blood–red section within the panacea polypore–it was a young bloody polypore that was growing from the inside!
Everyone watching around Frank was left in dumbfounded disbelief.
“What?!”
“Isn’t that a bloody polypore?”
“It’s alive, too…”
“So that’s why the polypore is dying. Its nutrients are being drained from the inside!”
Gina was left completely bewildered.
She knew nothing about herbology, so she asked Cindy, “What’s a bloody polypore?”
Cindy’s eyes were aflame with jealousy. “It’s a parasitic polypore growing within normal polypores. It sucks the polypore outside dry, which is why it’s a treasure among polypores.”
Beside Frank, Kenny’s eyes lit up as he stared at the bloody polypore. “My goodness… your eyes are as sharp as they are wise, Mr. Lawrence! You actually spotted a bloody polypore hidden within!”
He was dead sure that Frank must have noticed right away, or he would not have spent two million dollars buying a dead herb!
Frank smiled. “I was just lucky.”
Helen was left gaping but soon rolled her eyes.
She was certainly naive–Frank had his own reason to buy the herb, and certainly not to help her mother save face.
Even Johnny was left staring greedily at the bloody polypore while kicking himself for not noticing earlier.
Still, he got an idea and told Frank, “Sir, you truly are amazing, noticing the bloody polypore inside. May I ask if you’re interested in selling it? I’m willing to buy it for five hundred million
Everyone who was in the know laughed before he could finish.
“Aren’t you too greedy, old–timer? A bloody panacea is a real treasure.”
“Hell, it’s one in a million and at least worth a billion bucks.”
“And you just axed it by half!
Johnny gritted his teeth, but he stayed calm and smiled at Frank. “Haha! Silly me… how does a billion dollars sound, sir?”
“A billion?!” Gina’s eyes were bulging at the offer.
Lane Holdings and all their assets were only worth two billion!
And yet, that single herb was worth half of that?!

She had certainly taken a terrible loss!
Nonetheless, Frank smiled and shook his head.copy right hot novel pub
