Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 868

Sebastian slightly raised his gaze. When his eyes landed on Serena, a trace of twisted excitement and interest flashed in his seemingly gentle eyes behind the lenses.

But it was well concealed.

"Miss, since you doubt the Ghost Doctor, please present your evidence," Sebastian said with a smile. "Otherwise, I can only assume you are here to cause trouble at our auction."

Serena frowned slightly.

She didn't quite like the way this man looked at her.

He seemed gentle on the surface.

But he always made her feel as if she had been coiled by a venomous snake.

Slimy and cold.

It made her uncomfortable.

"It's not doubt," Serena said calmly, her tone even. "Just making sure everyone avoids being taken for a sucker."

"Moreover..."

She paused before continuing. "If something like this actually sold for over three billion dollars, it would utterly ruin the Ghost Doctor's reputation."

Serena lifted her gaze toward the massive screen above the auction stage.

The screen displayed close-up cropped images of the manuscript pages.

"The handwriting on those notes is immature, and there are even crossed-out revisions."

"This is clearly an early practice draft."

"Looking at those pages, they must be quite a few years old."

"More importantly... the so-called life-extending formula written on them."

Although the high-definition close-ups on the screen only selectively showed a corner of each page.

There happened to be a single line of a medical formula visible.

"The ratio of botanical extracts to base compounds listed there is three to one. That is an eight-year-old formula. The modern, improved version adjusted the ratio to four to one and added adaptogens for stability."

"The next page states the extraction ratio of Alpine Lotus is one to three, but that method became obsolete five years ago."
