At the sight of that, Ezra beamed even brighter. “See that, Dustin? This is the surprise we’ve prepared for you!”
“So you guys came prepared! Isn’t this just cheating!” Lana criticized them.
“Haha! All is fair in war! You can’t blame me for your own stupidity! I can’t believe you actually took us up on the bet!” Ezra gloated.
“It’s jam-packed over on our side, but I can’t say the same for you. It’s pretty clear who’s going to be the winner now. You might as well just admit defeat.” Eleanor smirked.
Though their plan to frame Dustin and Lana with the dead body hadn’t worked, their strategy to provoke them had. Eleanor and Ezra’s plan had not gone to waste.
“What’s the rush? We’ve still got time before the day ends.” Dustin remained calm and composed.
“What? Are you still unwilling to admit that you’ve lost?” Ezra mocked with a taunting smile. “Fine, we’ll just take things up a notch and make sure that you acknowledge your defeat!”
Then, he pulled out his cell phone and made a call.
Three minutes later, a black Mercedes- Benz drove up to them from the corner of the street and pulled up on the opposite side of the road.
The doors opened, and a plump, well- dressed man and his secretary came out. Then, he shouted, “An order of Rejuvenaid worth five million dollars for the owner of Conray Medicals!”
Right away, the crowd at Rejuvenaid Pharmaceuticals was in a frenzy. Conray Medicals was a well-known pharmaceutical company with a booming business in Oakvale. They had over 100 stores and maintained an excellent reputation all along.
The owner of Conray Medicals was also known to be a billionaire. It was truly shocking for him to make a public appearance to place an order of five million dollars worth of Rejuvenaid.
Not long after the Mercedes-Benz pulled up, a Maybach followed suit. When the doors opened, an old man with white hair and his walking stick in hand came out.
“An order of ten million dollars worth of Rejuvenaid for the director of Gonfrey Group!” The emcee shouted into the microphone.
Another commotion broke out among the crowd once again. But before the commotion died down, another astonishing thing happened.
One by one, a whole lineup of luxury cars began appearing. There were Bentleys, Porches, Rolls-Royces, and every other imaginable luxury car.
As each car pulled up, a powerful and influential person would emerge. The emcee’s voice rang out loud and clear, announcing their arrival and orders.
“Mr. Frondir of Fayprod Medicals placed an order for Rejuvenaid worth 20 million dollars to congratulate the launch of Rejuvenaid Pharmaceuticals!”
“An order of 50 million dollars worth of Rejuvenaid from Mr. Wolsey of Safetrust Securities!”
“Mr. Lunday of LunPro Group has just placed an order for 100 million dollars worth of Rejuvenaid!”
Seeing the amount of the rich and powerful of the elite class were present, the crowd buzzed with excitement.
“Damn! They are placing orders by the millions! Isn’t that too much?”
“Is Rejuvenaid really so miraculous that all these rich men seem to rush to purchase it?”
“The elites have foresight in the market. Surely, they see the potential in Rejuvenaid! We better follow in their footsteps and buy the product!”
The crowd engaged in heated discussions. They had initially gathered around to join in on the excitement. None of them had expected things to get so exciting.
In the end, many of the onlookers were tempted, and they, too, placed their orders. For a moment, the sales for Rejuvenaid hiked steeply. Things did not look good for Dew Balm.
“Do you know the difference between us now, Dustin? Do you admit defeat now?” Ezra’s lip lifted into a confident smirk.
“Defeat?” Dustin gave a faint smile. ” Why don’t you turn around and have a good look to see who’s the loser?”
