Mr. Finn’s Spoiled Wife Plan

“Ahem, what did you say!?” The man looked at Ruby with some surprise.

He had been ill for many years, and so many doctors in the country had seen him, both Chinese and Western, and all said that his illness was hopeless and that he would not live to be twenty-five at the most.

It’s just that his health has been deteriorating over the past few years and when he went to the hospital some time ago, he had just been given the go-ahead that he would die in six months at the most.

Now this girl in front of him, looking at most in her early twenties, she says she can save him?

Patrick Mccarthy pulled the corner of his mouth, feeling ridiculous. He had actually believed Ruby’s words.

“Yes, I mean it. Since you agreed to trade the Seven Leaf Lotus to me, you should have believed me.” Ruby nodded very seriously.

“My illness …”

“Your illness was given since you were born, if I’m not mistaken, you were born with a weak body, plus you were poisoned at a later stage, which injured your lungs, and you haven’t been properly tended to. Now the toxin in your body has invaded your heart chakra. If you have seen a Chinese medicine doctor, they should have told you that when the poison enters the heart chakra, it is difficult for the immortals to save you, right?” Ruby interrupted him directly and spoke with conviction.

Patrick looked much more cautious at his words.

Ruby took a pulse and gave a full account of his situation, so it was clear that she was indeed a person of ability.

He put away the doubt in his heart and nodded seriously, “You are right, this is what the president of the Chinese Medicine Association said to me personally, he is a titan of Chinese medicine in H Country, he would lie to me.”

“He didn’t lie to you, but you meet me now. If I say I can save you, I can save you. If you don’t believe me, there’s no need to give me the Seven Leaf Lotus.” Ruby smiled as she curled her lips, but the words that came out were half-hearted.

Patrick pondered for a moment, his life was only six months away anyway, if he could be cured, it would naturally be best, if not, it was still fate.

Looking at Ruby’s confident look, for some reason, he always felt at ease. After just a little thought, he came to a decision: “I’ll be grateful to you for my illness.”

“No worries. I need some herbs, so when the herbs are found, come to me.” Ruby had a good feeling about Patrick. After asking for a pen and paper and writing down the herbs needed, and leaving her contact details, Ruby excused herself and went out.

After the seven-leaf lotus, there was quite a lot more to follow, and the atmosphere outside the auction continued to be lively.

After Ruby went out, many people’s eyes fell on her.

The seven-leaf lotus, a legendary sacred medicine, is said to have the effect of prolonging life when used in medicine, and there is even a rumour that using the seven-leaf lotus crushed on the face will make the skin look at least twenty years younger.

Unfortunately, the seven-leaf lotus is extremely rare and has only ever been heard of in rumours, so today is the first time they have seen it.

Ruby returned to sit down beside Levi and watched the auction behind her somewhat carelessly.

The marrow cleansing pill was placed second to last, which was considered the grand finale of the day.

Most of the people who came were there for it, and a round of fierce bidding began just as the item came up.

Ruby looks on with a lack of interest.

In fact, the marrow cleansing pill was only the most basic and low-level pill in the elixir left behind by her Grandfather, but unfortunately many of the herbs could not be found nowadays, so it was really difficult to make a more advanced pill.

Having obtained the seven-leaf lotus today, she was able to try out the advanced pills.

“Let’s go, there’s nothing more to see.” Before the last item in the auction came up, Levi had already lost interest, reaching out to pull Ruby, getting up and walking out first himself.

Ruby was not interested in watching any further and got up to follow Levi out.

Only when they reached the door, the host’s voice came from the stage: “This last item is a very special instrument, which can be said to be beyond our current level of technology, this weapon should have a very high research value, so the price is also relatively high. The reserve price is 50 million, each time the price is increased by 5 million, now the bidding starts –”

Ruby heard the words and turned around sharply, looking at the instrument on the stage.

It doesn’t look like anything special, but Ruby feels a pang just looking at it.

Levi frowned and followed suit, twisting his head to look at the instrument on the stage, his face a little gloomy.

How dare they openly auction such things?

Levi watched for a while before withdrawing his gaze and exiting the auction hall with an expressionless face.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

When they came out of the auction hall, the heat outside was overwhelming and there were many more vendors on both sides of the adjoining street, hawking their wares. There were many things placed on the stalls, all kinds of herbs, jade and antiques, both real and fake, and it was the time to see what they good at.

Levi was in a bad mood and walked quickly, Ruby followed behind, glancing at the herbs for sale on the ground, nothing special, they were all ordinary herbs. She looked at them for a few moments and then withdrew her gaze, losing interest.

By the time she left the underground black market, Ruby still had a surreal feeling, not realizing that there was still such a place hidden here.

Levi was on his phone, Ruby was far away and could not hear it, but he looked serious towards the black market from time to time. Ruby guessed it was about the instrument. But it should be under control and was not allowed to trade. The owner of the black market had the audacity to take out such things and trade them openly.

He was still not looking good after hanging up the phone. Ruby stepped forward, but he didn’t say anything, he just pulled open the car door and got into the car.

Ruby followed in the car.

The two men didn’t talk either, but after getting into the car, they left the underground black market.

On the way, Patrick sent a message to tell Ruby that he had found all the medicine and would be able to come to Sea City tomorrow.

Several of these herbs are scarce and cannot even be found on the market. Ruby originally thought it would take ten days or a half months to find them, but she never expected that Patrick would have such a wide range of channels and be able to find all the herbs in such a short time.

She was curious about Patrick’s identity. This man looked so similar to Nellie, so maybe there was some connection.

Ruby replied and sent another address over, made an appointment for tomorrow’s treatment, before she turned off her phone.

The car drove straight into Shangcheng International, and Levi got off when he arrived at the place, without speaking to Ruby.

Ruby didn’t mind, getting out of the car and walking slowly behind Levi.

Levi got two calls, but she didn’t know what he said, but she knew that after the calls, his aura became more and more condensed and compelling, and inside the lift Ruby felt a sense of oppression.

“Levi …” When the lift reached the eighteenth floor, Ruby wanted to say thank you to Levi, but he entered the door directly and closed the door.

Ruby looked at the closed door in front of her and touched her nose before entering her house.
