Chapter 476 - 475: Prince Abudula
The US$200 million would only need to be paid after the disease was cured, after all, no one would believe there was someone in the world who could treat terminal illnesses.
But there was an old saying that went, ’Treat a dead horse as though it’s alive.’ Since such a hefty price had been quoted, and it was claimed a cure for his terminal illness was possible, a man like Prince Abudula, who wasn’t short on cash, was also going to give it a try.
If US$200 million could save his life, then it would be a huge profit, especially since he was only forty-two years old!
Forty-two years old, what a great age, in the prime of his life! He was one of the Saudi princes, receiving several billion US dollars in royal dividends each year. But these billions were just a drop in the bucket to him; he had other sources of income, such as flipping oil or arms dealing. All these shady earnings were his alone.
He really hadn’t had enough of life. When he saw a pretty little girl or a little boy, his heart would skip a beat, when he saw fine wine he wanted to have a drink, when he saw a limited edition sports car he still wanted to buy one, and he still wanted to throw a clothing-optional party on his yacht.
But none of these things he could do anymore. Ever since he found out he had leukemia, he had been wasting away, his hair started to fall out, his teeth were loosening, and even the birds stopped singing.
He felt that his life had come to an end, and so now he was particularly irritable, everyone looked like a son of a ***** to him, and he wanted to kill everyone he saw.
Not long before, an arms dealer who had contacts with his butler brought him a piece of news through his butler, saying someone could cure his illness. It was a cure, not just maintenance, allowing him to continue to live a vibrant life, to continue to enjoy the good life.
The only thing was that the treatment was a bit expensive; it would cost a hundred million US dollars!
Prince Abudula, who was receiving chemotherapy in the hospital at the time, decided on the spot. It didn’t matter if it was one or even twenty billion US dollars, as long as it could cure his illness, he would take it!
