Chapter 16 A Chance to Save Anastasia
Godfather’s medical research lab could cure Anastasia’s illness?!
Osborne trembled violently with excitement. He was thrilled at
the possibility of extending Anastasia’s life for a year and even
more so at the better news.
But he soon calmed down.
He needed six–star access to send Anastasia to the restricted area of Godfather’s medical lab.
Right now, he only had one star.
With each heir trial he completed, he could gain one star. That meant he had to complete six dangerous heir trials within a
year.
It seemed too difficult.
However, as long as there was a chance to save Anastasia, no. matter how hard or dangerous, he was ready to do whatever it took.
Osborne was eager to start the second challenge of inheritance.
But first, he needed to buy the longevity herb to extend

Otherwise, she would die in seven days.
“Isa, where can I buy the longevity herb?”
Isa thought for a moment and said, “This kind of top–tier medicinal herb, costing millions or even tens of millions of dollars, usually appears only at top–tier auctions. Fortunately, there’s one tomorrow afternoon at Mayby City hosted by the Draco Group. You can check it out since your Draco Star Wristlet grants you access without an invitation.”
“The Draco Auction?” Osborne’s eyes sparkled.
Osborne stayed by Anastasia’s bed that night while studying The Breath of Celestial.
He found The Breath of Celestial not as difficult as Isa had
mentioned.
In just one night, he had mastered the basics. His breathing became deep and powerful, each breath opening his pores to expel a foul–smelling black mud.
Then, he felt incredibly light, as if he had been working out in a gym for days. His strength, speed, and reaction time all improved.
“The Breath of Celestial seems quite miraculous!”
Osborne murmured, “If I keep training like this, my physical
Chapter 16 A Chance to Save Anastasia condition will soon surpass human limits, becoming as powerful as a beast.”
Unbeknownst to him, they would be astounded if others knew of his rapid progress.
The elite Glacium breathing technique, which many failed to master over years or even decades, was mastered by Osborne in just one night, a feat unheard of.
Immersed in enhancing his physical condition through The Breath of Celestial, Osborne continued until the next afternoon. After taking a shower, he prepared to attend the auction.
“Isa, please take care of my sister.”
After asking Isa to look after Anastasia, Osborne hailed a taxi
and headed to the Draco Auction.
Meanwhile, at the Caldwell Manor, where Ophelia lives, she
said.
“Evelyn, I’m heading out.”
“Where are you going, Ophelia?” Evelyn asked.
“I’ve arranged to meet Wesley at the Draco Auction. A set of rare jewels is being auctioned off, worth over ten million dollars. I
want to see them.”
Ophelia replied nonchalantly.
Chapter 16 A Chance to Save Anastasia She had never owned such priceless jewels before.
But now, as the heir to the Caldwell family and soon to be Wesley’s wife, she needed such treasures to complement her
status.
“Ophelia, are you talking about the Ocean Whisper Sapphire?”
Evelyn said with a serious expression. “I heard that Ms. Radcliffe is also interested in the Ocean Whisper Sapphire.”
“Ms. Radcliffe?”
Ophelia was startled, her eyes filled with a mix of awe and envy.
They were referring to Clarissa Radcliffe, known as the most. beautiful woman in Mayby City, who was said to be stunningly gorgeous. The Radcliffe family, to which she belonged, was ancient far surpassing the wealthy family like the Caldwell. family.
In terms of status, beauty, and talent, Ophelia couldn’t compare to Clarissa, and even meeting her was difficult.
“No matter what, I’ll go to the auction first. Maybe I’ll get a chance to meet Ms. Radcliffe. If I can become friends with her, it could catapult the Caldwell family to new heights.”
Ophelia excitedly planned.
Evelyn seemed intrigued and said, “Wait a minute. I’ll change my clothes and come with you.”
Chapter 16 A Chance to Save Anastasia “Okay.”
Soon after, the Draco Auction venue was bustling with activity.
The elite of Mayby City seemed to have all showed up there, with one high–profile figure after another arriving in luxury cars.
Osborne, arriving in a taxi, stood out conspicuously.
As he got out of the taxi, he attracted many curious stares.
Everyone wanted to know who would dare to arrive at such a high–end event in a taxi.
Their looks were filled with disdain and mockery.
However, Osborne was unfazed. His only goal was the longevity herb.
But as he approached the entrance of the auction house, a cold and angry voice suddenly sounded.
“Osborne, you worthless fool, what are you doing here?! Do you still want to pester Ophelia?”
Turning around, Osborne saw Evelyn and Ophelia.
Both were dressed to the nines, looking like a pair of stunning sisters, accompanied by a group of Caldwell family members and bodyguards.

Osborne even spotted Justin and Penelope among them.
At that moment, they all looked at Osborne with anger as if they wanted to kill him.
“Osborne, you jerk, didn’t you hear me? Why are you here?”
Evelyn repeated angrily.
