“Thirty-five million, once!1
Just then, one of the staff shouted. “Room V001 bid fifty-five million.”
The crowd stirred.
To bid 35 million over a bracelet would have been rather insane, not to mention bidding 55 million. It surpassed the value of the bracelet itself!
Mister Kirby, who had been silent the entire time, said to the staff standing next to him, “Seventy million.”
The staff froze for a moment before speaking into the microphone in his hand. “Room V003 bid seventy million.”
Cece turned and gaped at Mister Kirby, who was smiling mysteriously.
Another bid came.
“Room V001 bid a hundred and five million.”
“Room V003 bid one hundred and forty million.”
“A hundred and seventy-five million.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Two hundred and ten million.’
“Two hundred and eighty million.”
“Three hundred and fifty million.”
Toward the end, even the host’s voice was quivering and all the guests were stunned.
In the V003 room, Cece tugged at Vicky’s sleeve. “Vicky, is that bracelet worth this much?”
After a few moments of silence, Vicky said, “No.”
Cece glanced at Mister Kirby gingerly and whispered, “Is Mister Kirby before scammed, Vicky?”
“No.”
Vicky glanced at the V001 room, and if she was not mistaken, that was the room Tyler and Sheila walked into earlier.
The rooms on the second floor were separated into ordinary rooms and VIP rooms, and the one Vicky was in was one of the VIP rooms.
The more influential the guests, the smaller their room number would be, and it would only be natural for a man of Tyler’s status to be arranged in the number one room.
At the same time, it was also proof of how powerful Mister Kirby was since he was arranged to sit in the third room.
As she was absorbed into her thoughts, the price of the bracelet had risen to 550 million.
Mister Kirby was about to bid again when Vicky said, “Mister Kirby, it’s best that you give up.”
He glanced at her. “Why so?”
She smiled with resignation. ’No one rivals him here in Stoneford City.”
He lifted an eyebrow. ‘You know the person in room 001?’
She remained quiet for a few moments before whispering. “Tyler Hart is the person in room 001.1 saw him walking inside just now.”
Mister Kirby narrowed his eyes. “Your husband?”
Mister Kirby had seen Tyler once when he was unconscious in the hospital and had heard about him long before that since he was a well-known man in all of Zendonia; even families overseas knew about him.
Vicky nodded.
Mister Kirby chuckled. ’Alright, then. Since he’s buying this for you, I won’t bid against him.”
