Chapter 874
Mr. Kessler frowned.
He strongly disliked the attitude of this Doyle family daughter.
Even if he truly had missed out on the Ghost Doctor’s notes and the chance to contact them.
As the hostess of the auction.
She had no right to act so high and mighty, mocking and ridiculing her guests.
She had absolutely zero manners.
He spoke with displeasure. “My lack of fate with the notes does not mean I lack fate with the Ghost Doctor. We both study pharmacology, so there will always be opportunities. Miss Doyle, I suggest you watch your words p>
Bianca curled her lip, assuming he was simply lashing out from the humiliation of missing out on the notes.
She was incredibly smug and even wanted to strut over to Serena to continue showing off.
However, the expression on the auctioneer’s face was beyond complicated.
He cleared his throat and continued, “Everyone, please hold your excitement p>
“There is a second half to the message the Attaché asked me to convey p>
“The Ghost Doctor thanks the Doyle family… for willingly spending three billion and ten million dollars to recycle the practice scraps she casually threw away eight years ago p>
“She said it must have taken the Doyle family considerable effort to track down the trash she tossed out, and it’s quite embarrassing to see you treat her garbage like a treasure p>
“However, while the formulas written on them are outdated and no longer applicable, the research notes might be a decent read. Perhaps you can glean something from them p>
“Finally, the Ghost Doctor said… spending three billion on a few pages of discarded scribbles proves the Doyle family is indeed wealthy. If your family needs more, she has stacks of them lying around p>
“If the Doyle family still wants more, seeing how incredibly sincere you are, you won’t need to pay three billion. Three hundred million will be more than enough p>
The auctioneer coughed awkwardly. “I… I’ve finished conveying the message p>
After his voice faded.
Dead silence engulfed the entire banquet hall.
Not a single person spoke.
Everyone’s eyes uniformly swiveled toward the members of the Doyle family.
The looks in their eyes shifted from
envy, jealousy, and hatred… to
staring at them like they were
absolute idiots, the punchline of
massive joke
There was even a trace of pity mixed in.
Three billion dollars to buy the random scrap paper the Ghost Doctor had thrown away eight years ago?
Most importantly p>
These notes had just been publicly certified as garbage by the Ghost Doctor herself.
That meant the Doyle family could completely forget about using them to stage a triumphant comeback.
It was safe to say these notes were now utterly useless.
Even though the Doyle family had essentially bought it from themselves, moving money from their left hand to their right.
They still had to stomach the loss of hundreds of millions in auction fees, as well as hundreds of millions more in mandatory donations.
Not to mention p>
The immense, unquantifiable effort the Doyle family had poured into obtaining these so-called authentic notes in the first place.
But the most critical loss of all p>
Was their dignity!
It was a complete humiliation!
Calling them ‘suckers’ didn’t even begin to cover it.
This was practically the biggest laughingstock the elite circle had seen in centuries!
Finally, someone couldn’t hold it in
and burst out laughing. “The Doyle family… the Doyle family really took
a massive loss on this angl Centerit
“Eight-year-old scribbles, and a discarded draft at that. Good heavens., how could the Doyle family take the trash the Ghost. Doctor threw ago and auction it off as a supreme treasure p>
yeight year
The smile on Bianca’s face froze entirely.
Arthur’s mouth twitched uncontrollably.
Sebastian’s hand, which had been pushing up his glasses, halted in mid-air.
Beneath the lenses, his eyes grew dark and exceptionally cold.
