Zachary shook his head and laughed out loud.

Utterly amused, he could not miss out on the opportunity to mock Kennedy Langdon.

As expected, Kennedy’s expression darkened.

The other bosses chuckled happily after meeting gazes with each other.

Both situations occurred during an auction and involved a battle of wealth.

Nevertheless, the one who had the upper hand between Mitch and Jasper could easily be discerned.

“Mr. Mitch Langdon has called for a bid of 100 million Harbor Dollars for this blue and white porcelain

bowl. Going once.

“Going twice.

“Going thrice, it’s a deal! Con-Congratulations to Mr. Mitch Langdon,” the host announced. The host did

not even dare to look at Mitch, who had a ferocious expression etched on his face. He began

auctioning the next item after carrying out the follow-up processes in a hurry.

The items to be auctioned grew fewer and fewer. Jasper did not call for a bid after that.

With a look that could kill etched on his face, Mitch was still fuming with rage. Nonetheless, Zane

Lancaster, who was seated right beside Mitch, grew nervous.

He was extremely anxious.

He had not called for a bid up till now.

Using Mitch’s incident as a reference, he knew that Jasper would not let him go once he called for a

bid.

However, he was in an urgent situation. If he gave up on the auction, others would mock him for being

stingy. A lot of them would think that he was frightened of Jasper.

He could not be put to shame by this person.

Besides, he also knew that he could not embarrass his father, Bob Lancaster.

As the auction gradually progressed toward the end, a landscape painting by a famous painter from

Harbor City was presented in front of the audience. Zane gritted his teeth. He decided to call for a bid.

“1.1 million Harbor Dollars.”

Zane, who had called for the bid, glanced at Jasper instinctively. He had already decided on a limit of

ten million Harbor Dollars. If Jasper called for a bid higher than that, he would get back at him by giving

up on the bid.

That way, he could prevent himself from losing a fortune.

Thinking about this, Zane’s lips curled into a smile.

There were many ways to trick someone else in an auction.

What could a country bumpkin from Mainland know about auctions?

“Ten million Harbor Dollars.”

As expected, Jasper did not disappoint the audience who were eager to watch the showdown between

the both of them. He immediately raised the price by nearly ten times in front of everyone’s watchful

gazes.

Zane took in a deep breath as the corners of his mouth twitched. The price Jasper called for had

reached the maximum bidding price that he had set for himself. He was overcome with a sense of

extreme discomfort.

However, this was just the first round of bidding. If he gave up right now, it would be awfully

embarrassing for him.

Gritting his teeth, Zane’s gaze flickered. “15 million Harbor Dollars,” he announced.

He intended to get back at Jasper. He would give up on the bid later no matter how much Jasper called

for.

Just as Zane was feeling full of himself, he realized that the entire auction hall was silent.

“Mr. Zane Lancaster has called for a bid of 15 million Harbor Dollars. Is there a higher price?” the host

asked cautiously.

Nobody responded to him.

“15 million Harbor Dollars, going twice.”

Zane’s hands were shaking. He pinned his gaze on Jasper as his heart raced in anxiety.

‘Follow the bid! F*cking follow the bid right now!’

Zane wanted to rush in front of him and force him to raise his hand, making him follow the bid. He was

not the only one looking at Jasper. Everyone had their attention on Jasper and awaited his response.

However, Jasper… did not even move. He did not even have the intention to follow the bid.

“Why aren’t you following the bid?!” Zane yelled out at Jasper instinctively.

How could he not follow the bid?

He was waiting for him to follow the bid so that he could get back at him! Why was he not following the

bid?!

Zane was about to lose it.

Jasper glanced at Jasper like he was looking at a fool. “15 million Harbor Dollars for something like

this? Only an idiot would buy it…”

Zane’s face flushed bright red. He looked like he was about to suffocate. Looking at Zane’s expression,

Henry could not resist bursting out into laughter.
