Chapter 393
Smack!
With Jace’s words, the armrest under Stephen’s hand shattered into powder on the spot.
Stephen was already burning with anger.
Everyone showed him respect, except for that little runt…
He was provoking him!
Stephen’s eyes were as cold as a venomous snake’s while he stared straight at Andrius below. He said coldly, “Kid, do you know who I am? Are you sure you want to compete with me in the auction? If you back off now, I can pretend that nothing happened.”
He gave his final ultimatum. “I’ll even give you a chance to change your ways after you lay your hands on my disciple.
“But if you remain stubborn…”
Stephen narrowed his eyes. The ferocious light flickering in them was more dazzling than the sun, causing people to tremble in fear.
“This is an auction.” Andrius could not be bothered to argue with him and said indifferently, “Auctions are about money, not words. If you want to bid, then hurry up and make your offer.”
Wow.
That brat was simply wild!
“That kid is really bold…”
“He’s bold, but… he’s destined to have a miserable end.”
“The last person who spoke to Stephen like that must have been back when he was in preschool, right?”
“My brother–in–law makes coffins. It looks like he’ll have some business soon.”
Many people were shocked by Andrius‘ audacity. They ridiculed him and looked at him with disdain.
Stephen’s nose scrunched up in anger, and his eyes widened so much that his eyeballs almost bulged. It was a terrifying sight.
The reflection of Andrius in his eyes shattered in an instant.
Stephen was ready to kill!
However, this was an auction. He could not risk causing a big disturbance and breaking the rules of the
auction house.
“I bid 170 million!” Stephen shouted his price with gritted teeth.
Andrius said casually, “I bid 180 million.”
“190 million!”
“200 million.“.
“210 million!”
“220 million.”
As the bidding intensified, the prices continued to soar.
Stephen gnashed his teeth.
Andrius was still nonchalant.
However, beside him, Luna was already anxious. She did not have that much money!
It was a familiar scene and a familiar formula. The same thing happened during the Riverfront Entertainment auction in Sumeria.
However, what was different was that Sonia emerged to buy Riverfront Entertainment in the end.
Now…
Who would foot the auction bill in this unfamiliar land?
“Andrius!” Luna pulled Andrius‘ sleeve and hissed in a low voice, “That’s enough. Stop bidding! You’re having fun shouting prices, but can you even fork out the money?”
Of course, he could.
He had trillions in his bank account. Of course, he could fork out the money.
Besides, as the Wolf King, since he had chosen to start, he had to fight till the end. There was neither an alternative path for him to take nor would he care to take it!
“250 million!”
“260 million.”
“290 million!”
“300 million.”
The prices were still soaring.
Luna was furious and anxious, but she was also helpless.
The bidding war attracted the attention of Joel Smith, the owner of the auction house.
After all…
Although the value of wild king ginseng was high, it would not reach the point of 300 million unless both sides were fighting.
This made Joel very curious. “Let me see the live footage.”
The secretary pulled it up at once.
Soon, the picture of Stephen’s resentful face appeared on the screen.
Hiss…
Joel was instantly stunned.
“Stephen Hoffman? He’s the infamous Grim Reaper of the capital!” He muttered to himself, “Who has the guts to bid against him?”
Joel was even more curious.
Then, Andrius‘ face also appeared on the screen.
“He’s…”
Andrius sat in the middle of the hall, so the cameras could not capture him clearly Joel was unable to
recognize him at a glance.
The secretary said firmly, “No matter who he is, I’m afraid he won’t have a good ending since he dared to compete with Stephen.”
However…
The next moment, Joel was shocked. Cold sweat formed on his forehead, and there was a flash in his eyes. A figure appeared in his mind. “It’s him!”
“Who?” the secretary instinctively asked.
Joel took out his phone, found a photo, and enlarged it, saying solemnly, “Taylor, you have sharp eyes. Take a closer look and see if they’re the same person.”
