Chapter 957:
Kyson hesitated, unsure whether Yelena was merely bluffing or if she genuinely had confidence in the medicine’s authenticity.
However, since he hadn’t gotten his hands on the medication yet and didn’t want to let the opportunity slip away, Kyson continued bidding, and others soon followed suit.
Before long, the bidding soared to forty million.
Yelena raised the bid once more—this time, to fifty million.
“She seems very determined to get it,” Kyson muttered.
“But the starting price for this medicine was only twenty dollars. It doesn’t seem genuine,” Seth pointed out skeptically.
Kyson considered Seth’s words and found them plausible.
In the end, Yelena secured the bottle of medicine—originally priced at just twenty dollars—for a staggering fifty million.
Watching from the sidelines, Carly was borderline livid. She turned to Leanna, her voice sharp with frustration. “This is getting out of hand! I highly doubt Austin has anything to do with this. This is definitely Yelena! That woman is absolutely insane p>
Leanna scoffed, shaking her head. “Yelena is going too far. Because she’s not spending her own money, she doesn’t feel bad about it? Austin worked hard for it, yet here she is, throwing it around like it’s nothing and bidding on everything just to let everyone know how rich she is p>
Carly snorted disdainfully. “Even if she does have money, it’s not hers to spend! She’s gone too far p>
Carly quickly called Austin, intending to warn him to keep a close eye on Yelena and put an end to her reckless behavior.
However, Austin declined her call directly.
It was clear that Austin didn’t want to speak to her at all.

“This is insane! Absolutely insane p>
Frustrated, Carly dialed Maggie instead. At home tending to Aitana, Maggie picked up the call immediately.
After listening to Carly’s complaints, Maggie calmly said, “Austin and Yelena have their own plans. There’s no need for you to worry about it p>
“What? Maggie, have you lost your mind? You’re not even the least bit concerned about how Yelena is throwing away all that money Austin worked so hard for p>
Maggie replied earnestly, “Not at all. Austin earns money for his woman to spend. Doesn’t your husband do the same p>
Maggie’s words hit a sore spot for Carly. Carly’s husband, Raul Palmer, was notorious for his philandering ways with countless women outside their marriage.
When they were newly married, Carly had always been furious about his affairs and would go to great lengths to catch him in the act.
But as the years passed, Carly gradually came to terms with reality. Raul was incorrigible, and no amount of scolding or confrontation would ever stop him from cheating on her.
Carly had long since stopped caring. As long as he continued bringing home money, she turned a blind eye to everything else.
Raul lived his life as he pleased, and Carly did the same with hers, completely independent of each other.
With only one son and plenty of time on her hands, Carly grew especially fond of Leanna, Raul’s younger brother’s daughter. She took her everywhere she went, treating her almost like her own.
Maggie’s words had truly infuriated Carly. Furious, she slammed the phone down with a sharp thud.
