My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily)

When Jaiden looked at Lily's retreating figure, he felt that something was amiss.

Just then, a staff member gave him the item he bid for. After paying for it, he immediately told Augustus, "Something's off, Mr. Jaggernaut Senior. We must return home immediately. We need to check whether this herb is Redushil or not."

Meanwhile, Augustus sat down dejectedly. He sighed. "There's no need to check it. This isn't Redushil."

"What?" Finley's expression turned serious. "How could that be? We bought this for 80 billion dollars!"

At the same time, Jaiden also looked upset. He looked at Augustus and asked, "Are you sure of it?"

"I'm very sure that this isn't Redushil." Augustus shook his head. "I warned you before that Lily might have been tricking you. But you didn't listen to me."

Earlier on, when Jaiden was fighting against Lily, Augustus noticed that something was off, so he urged Jaiden to stop bidding.

Alas, Jaiden was provoked by Lily, so he didn't listen to the advice.

"Where's the real Redushil?" Jaiden looked grim.

"It's with Lily." Augustus stroked his beard and seemed deep in thought.

Then, Jaiden narrowed his eyes. "Was it the one that she bid 500 billion dollars for?"

After thinking about it, Augustus replied, "No. Although I can't tell what that herb is, it definitely isn't Redushil. I just don't know why Lily bid 500 billion dollars for it."

Jaiden looked even gloomier as he stood up. He scanned his surroundings coldly. "So, is the Redushil the herb that Lily paid 200 dollars for?"

"Most likely, yes." Augustus nodded. "I'm certain that the McKees didn't buy the Redushil. Since the first herb that Lily fought with you for isn't the Redushil and if we exclude the third herb, it's highly likely that Lily bought the Redushil for 200 dollars."

He sounded a little helpless.

Jaiden was calm and careful most of the time. Besides, he always completed his tasks well. However, this time.....

He spent 80 billion dollars but couldn't obtain the Redushil. How was he going to explain himself to his family later on?

Jaiden leaned against his chair silently and closed his eyes.

Meanwhile, Augustus and Finley kept quiet.

After a moment, Jaiden stood up and narrowed his eyes. "Since I can't get it through legal means, we'll have to take it forcefully. Finley, get all our subordinates here. Once they leave this place, shoot them!" He had to get the Redushil no matter what.

...

In Box No. 1, Shaun leaned forward and patted Lily's shoulder. He burst into laughter. "That was fucking great! Jaiden must be furious now."

Lily simply glanced at him and said, "You should start planning what you should do when others try to steal the Redushil later on!"

Hearing that, Shaun paused. He stood up unhappily. "Fuck! I forgot about that."

He walked out while cursing, "I'll kill the fucker who tries to steal the Redushil!"

In the meantime, Daniel stayed behind because he had to protect Loid and Lily. However, these two people didn't need his help.

Once the auction ended, Layton hurriedly entered the box just as Lily and Loid were about to leave.

He passed a card to Lily and greeted her politely, "Ms. Brooks, there's fifty billion dollars in this card. Please accept it."

Lily raised an eyebrow. "What's this for?"
