Chapter - 4482

Preston was very outspoken and did not mince his words.

Hearing this, displeasure flashed across Sandra's face. In her years of roaming the streets, no one had ever dared to speak to her like this!

"What makes you so arrogant? You got your position with Philip's help too. Could you get in here without Philip?" Sandra scowled at Preston's loftiness.

This guy was just an errand boy. He had no right to speak to her this way!

With Sandra's qualifications and abilities, she had no right to know anyone from the Stein family, so it was normal for her to assume that Preston was an errand boy.

Preston burst into laughter at Sandra's words. He did not rush to deny anything. He merely smiled and nodded.

"Yeah, I'm just an errand boy. As for you, you don't even stand a chance to ride on other people's coattails," Preston retaliated harshly.

Philip looked at Sandra coldly with no intention of helping her.

Sandra was disappointed in Philip's indifference. She thought that she could catch Philip's eye with her beauty, but he was unmoved despite all she had done.

Sandra was dejected and clenched her fists, wanting to give it another try.

At worst, she would use force!

If she could get pregnant with Philip's child, she would live a life of luxury!

As for Philip's background?

She did not care at all!

She only cared about Philip's identity as a practitioner and his techniques. If she could gain everything with a child, why not?

Sandra's plan was perfect. She had thought a perfect way to do it, at least that was her thought.

Philip signaled to Preston with his eyes to keep quiet.

On stage, the price of the Cockatrice Orb had gone up to more than six billion.

Philip was shocked that so many rich people nowadays were willing to spend huge sums of money just to live for a few more years.

"I'll use three 1,000-year-old panax roots in exchange!" an elegant man said.

Hearing this, everyone scowled at his bid.

The wealthy businessmen who were not practitioners were most exasperated. They had nothing to worry about if they could buy the Cockatrice Orb with money. Once that option was no longer available, they had to withdraw from the bidding.

Now that someone had started exchanging in kind, there was no point in raising the price anymore.

"Three 1,000-year-old panax roots for a Cockatrice Orb? What are you thinking?"

"Hehe, you think too highly of a panax root! It's fine if one knows how to use it well, but most people don't know how to use it!"

"That little thing for Cockatrice Orb?"

The man seemed embarrassed at everyone's ridicule. He coughed and said calmly, "I'm not done yet. Other than the three 1,000-year-old panax roots, I'll throw in a lite potion unique to our guild. It can make your body as light as a feather after taking it. It's extremely useful in battle or traveling."

After hearing his explanation, many people wavered.
