Chapter 56
Gavin’s voice abruptly echoed in the entire pharmacy.
This gentleman and the group of strong bodyguards behind him also turned around and looked at Gavin in surprise.
The staff standing at the front counter also glanced at Gavin in surprise.
He looked at the plainly dressed Gavin with a strange expression.
Then, the staff member faced Gavin and said, “Sir, are you here to cause trouble?”
Cause trouble?
Gavin raised his head slightly when he heard what the staff member said.
He asked, “Why do you say that?
“Aren’t you guys bidding? I want that coptis herb. Is there a problem?”
“Well…”
When the staff member heard Gavin’s words, a strange expression appeared on his face.
On the other side, the gentleman suddenly let out an unpleasant laugh.
His laughter filled the air.
“Am I mishearing things? Someone like you want it too?
“Is there something wrong with your brain, or is there something wrong with my ears? 500 thousand dollars? Can a poor bastard like you afford to pay so much money?”
Not only did this gentleman mock Gavin himself, but he also called the group of fighters beside him to join him. Together, they let out an ear-piercing laughter.
However, Gavin did not even look at him.
He only said indifferently to the staff at the counter again, “Now, I have the highest bidding price. Can you sell this coptis
herb to me?”
“Hmph!” Before the staff could say anything, this gentleman’s cold snort cut through the air.
In the next second, he thundered, “How dare you ignore me?
“I bid 600 thousand dollars!”
The gentleman almost roared out loud.
It was as if he wanted to suppress Gavin with his aura.
But Gavin immediately spoke steadily and peacefully.
“700 thousand dollars!”
“Why you little…”
Hearing Gavin’s words, the gentleman gritted his teeth heavily.
A resentful expression suddenly appeared on his face as he roared, “You punk, are you fucking looking for trouble?
“I bid 720 thousand dollars!”
This gentleman no longer maintained his previous level of confidence when he bid. This time, he only increased his bid by 20,000 dollars.
The corners of Gavin’s lips curled up slightly as he spoke again.
“Ibid.”
Before Gavin could finish speaking, the gentleman roared, “Shut up!
“You son of a bitch You stupid bastard. Are you trying to make me angry today?
“I’m warning you, you idiot. If you dare to bad agam, believe it or not, I’ll cripple you immediately!”
Gavin glanced at this gentleman and slowly uttered, I hid 800 thousand dollars!”
“Ah!
“You punk! You’re fucking dead!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand and shouted at the dozen or more bodyguards behind him.
“Go, cripple him! Cut off his tongue and feed it to the dogs!”
After receiving their master’s order, the bodyguards behind the gentleman rubbed their fists together while rushing toward
Gavin.
All of them had ferocious and angry expressions on their faces.
Gavin looked at the people in front. His expression did not change. He only lowered his head and sighed slightly.
The gentleman standing in front looked at Gavin who seemed “lost”. There was a cruel smile in the gentleman’s eyes as if he already heard Gavin’s agonizing screams.
The next second, sure enough, a blood-curdling scream filled the pharmacy.
However, it was not from Gavin!
The gentleman’s pupils slowly dilated.
The dozen or more burly bodyguards he had brought were like kites with their strings cut. They spat out blood and screamed as they flew backward!
Of course, they naturally flew out of the shop. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Gavin did not want to see any harm come to the coptis herb he had taken a fancy to.
Almost instantly, the entire pharmacy fell silent.
Gavin stood in place calmly.
He gently dusted off his hands and said to the staff member of the Bailey Pharmacy, “I said, I’m bidding 800 thousand dollars. Do you hear me?”
The staff of the Bailey Pharmacy was also in shock. Now that he heard Gavin’s voice, the staff instantly snapped back to reality. Then, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and turned to look in the direction of the gentleman awkwardly.
He stammered, “Sir… Mr. Hill, do you still want to bid?”
Mr. Hill?
When Gavin heard how the staff addressed the gentleman, Gavin raised his eyebrows slightly. He seemed to have smelled something fishy going on.
Gavin felt that it would not be easy for him to obtain the coptis herb today.
At this moment, Brody Hill also recovered from his shock.
Although there was a hint of fear in Brody’s eyes, his expression was filled with resentment as Brody roared at Gavin, “You punk! I admit that you’re pretty strong!
“However, with your penniless appearance, I don’t believe you have the money you claim to have!
“You poor bastard. Did you come here to disgust me just because you’re a good fighter?
“Let me tell you. Today, I’ll watch as you pay the 800 thousand dollars. If you can pay it, I’ll let you off. If you can’t, I’ll let you see how terrifying the Hill family in Greenwald is!”
The Hill family in Greenwald?
Gavin had never heard of it and didn’t need to hear about it.
He wondered, “But regarding what this Mr. Hill just said, why do I feel like I heard the same thing from Claire Dawson before?”
Gavin shook his head helplessly and took out a bank card from his pocket.
After the experience of buying clothes for Zoe Clifford last time, Gavin specifically found an ordinary bank card to ensure compatibility with the subpar POS machines in these shops. Gavin handed the card to the staff member.
The staff of the Bailey Pharmacy looked at Gavin’s attire and accepted the bank card in his hand doubtfully. He took out the POS machine from behind the counter and swiped it.
“Beep, beep. Transaction successful!”
The mechanical notification of the POS machine clearly echoed throughout the entire pharmacy.
“What?
“No. It’s impossible!”
Brody suddenly became hysterical.
Your machine must be broken. It’s surely brokent
“How can this penniless guy afford t
“This poor bastard. He…”
His voice was interrupted by a crisp sound.
“Pow!” Brody’s body was sent flying like a kite with a broken string
The two bloody front teeth in his mouth drew a beautiful arc in the air as he flew out.
“Plop!” Brody’s body slammed heavily to the ground.
Gavin stood in place and gently retracted his right hand.
He threw a casual threat. “If you continue to run your mouth, it won’t be as simple as slapping you”
“How dare you hit me? You bastard. Why you little…”
Before Brody could continue, the staff member suddenly exclaimed, “Mr. Hill, are you alright?”
Then, he rushed to Brody’s side and helped him up.
He said to Brody with concern, “Mr. Hill, are you alright? You’re injured. Come to the back quickly. I’ll treat your wound!
As he spoke, the counter staff helped Brody to the back of the pharmacy.
Seeing this scene, Gavin raised his eyebrows slightly, and an imperceptible light appeared in his eyes.
