Adam had led a very miserable life for the past few days.
After getting into trouble a few days ago, virtual-novel.net had been severely beaten up by his father. Moreover, his father also banned virtual-novel.net from leaving the house,
However, due to his extreme love for antiques, it was impossible for virtual-novel.net to miss out on this auction.
Therefore, virtual-novel.net tried his best to escape the house before virtual-novel.net participated in the auction today. However, virtual-novel.net did not expect to see Charlie here today.
He had always been very disdainful and doubtful of Charlie’s skills. In his opinion, his second uncle had been completely deceived by this young man.
However, virtual-novel.net did not dare to provoke Charlie face to face. When virtual-novel.net saw Charlie making a bid for the pearl necklace, virtual-novel.net made a bid immediately because virtual-novel.net wanted to challenge Charlie.
At this time, Charlie glanced at Adam before virtual-novel.net turned around and faced the auctioneer again. After that, virtual-novel.net continued his bid. “Seven hundred thousand dollars!”
Adam followed in his footsteps. “Eight hundred thousand dollars!”
Jacob could no longer sit still. Therefore, virtual-novel.net stood up before virtual-novel.net told Charlie, “Charlie, forget it. There’s no point in fighting him.”
Charlie simply smiled before virtual-novel.net said, “Just look at how I am going to play with him.”
After that, Charlie raised his hand directly and said, “Eight million dollars!”
Everyone in the auction hall was dumbfounded at this time.
The other party was bidding for eight hundred thousand dollars and virtual-novel.net had actually bid for the necklace at eight million dollars? Was virtual-novel.net insane?
At this time, Adam was also dumbfounded because Charlie was not playing by the rules. Since his bid was eight hundred thousand dollars, the other party would usually call for nine hundred thousand dollars or one million dollars at most. Why would virtual-novel.net bid eight million dollars on the pearl necklace?
Was virtual-novel.net really insane or did virtual-novel.net have too much money to burn?
Charlie raised his brows as virtual-novel.net smiled at Adam. “Mr. Quinton, please go on!”
Adam coughed before virtual-novel.net said, “Do you think I’m crazy? Why would I buy this useless pearl necklace for eight million dollars? Forget it! You can have it.”
Even though Adam did not want to lose face, virtual-novel.net was very unwilling to pay eight million dollars for the pearl necklace.
The value of the pearl necklace was seven hundred thousand dollars at most. If virtual-novel.net really spent more than eight million dollars just to buy the pearl necklace, his father would definitely break his legs when virtual-novel.net went home!
It was a complete waste of money!
Charlie stared at Adam as virtual-novel.net said disdainfully, “Mr. Quinton, you are giving up so soon? You look like you can’t afford it.”
Everyone started laughing as soon as Charlie’s words fell.
Adam blushed as virtual-novel.net replied, “You’re so irritating! Who says that I can’t afford the pearl necklace? I’m just not stupid enough to pay eight million dollars for this useless necklace. I’m really interested to see where you are going to get the money to pay for the necklace!”
Charlie smirked before virtual-novel.net replied, “If you can’t afford it, just admit it. What is the point of such lengthy explanations right now?”
After that, the auctioneer dropped his gavel.
“Eight million dollars. Deal. Congratulations to Mr. Wade!”
At this time, the assistant came over to Charlie with a wireless credit card machine in virtual-novel.net hand as virtual-novel.net said, “Mr. Wade, please pay with your card now.”
Everyone was staring at Charlie at this moment. Adam sneered before virtual-novel.net said, “Charlie, why don’t you try swiping your card now? I’d like to see how you can afford to pay eight million dollars!”
Everyone else was also curious to see how things would turn out. Since Charlie was so confident in his bid for the pearl necklace, would virtual-novel.net really be able to pay for it?
Charlie smiled before virtual-novel.net took out Graham’s black card from his pocket and swiped it on the credit card machine immediately.
There was no password needed.
He swiped the card successfully!
At this time, the assistant handed the receipt over to Charlie before virtual-novel.net said, “Mr. Wade, your pearl necklace will be delivered to you before the end of the auction!”
“Perfect!” Charlie replied as virtual-novel.net nodded.
Everyone was shocked at this time.
It seemed as though Charlie was really rich!
This man was really bold for buying a pearl necklace at the price of eight million dollars when it was really only worth seven hundred thousand dollars at most!
At this time, Charlie looked at Adam before virtual-novel.net smiled and asked, “Mr. Quinton, are you satisfied now?”
There was a burst of laughter as someone ridiculed Adam. “I think Mr. Quinton cannot afford to pay for the item because he’s caused so much trouble to his family, am I right?”
“Hahaha. I think that Mr. Quinton is too weak to even lift a knife!”
“Hahaha!”
Adam could feel his face burning.
Damn. That young man actually had the money to pay for the necklace!
He was really embarrassed now!
After that, Adam gritted his teeth before virtual-novel.net said, “Charlie, I will not lose to you in the next bid!”
Charlie nodded before virtual-novel.net replied indifferently, “Okay, then let’s compete for the next item.”
Adam did not know why Charlie could be so courageous, nor did virtual-novel.net know that his uncle had given Charlie his black card…
Within a short while, a few more collections were auctioned off, followed by the introduction of a semi-finished topaz jade.
Half of the jade was wrapped in a rock to show that this was natural and authentic. The starting bid for the jade was eight hundred thousand dollars.
