Chapter 147: Embarrassing

Those who didn’t have much money could only put down their boards and wat the rich fight.

Claire smiled and handed Julia the board, “You bid for us.”

Julia was flattered and picked up the board, “May I?”

Jon gave her an annoyed look, “We all know you want to do it, just take it.”

Julia laughed and immediately held the sign up.

But she held it up and didn’t say the price, everyone looked at her with confusion on their faces.

She smiled awkwardly and asked Claire in a whisper, “How much should we raise?”

The starting price for this stone was one and a half million, with a minimum raise of one hundred

thousand dollars per bid, Claire smiles wryly, “No rush, just raise one hundred thousand at a time.”

Julia immediately shouted, “Ten million and one hundred thousand!”

Paxton’s jaw nearly dropped as he looked incredulously at Sean, “Mr. Sean, you just raised a hundred

thousand dollars? That’s too petty, isn’t it?”

Sean raised an eyebrow and didn’t say anything, he picked up his teacup and took a sip of the coffee.

Julia pouted, “What? Can’t we? Is there a rule that says we can’t raise a hundred thousand?”

Ascalon’s most well–known playboy Paxton against Ascalon’s most powerful man Sean. The crowd

was all looking at them, thinking that they had made the

right choice coming here today.

The emcee stood on the stage and smiled respectfully, “Of course, there isn’t! The lowest standard for

a raise is one hundred thousand.”

Paxton suddenly found Julia annoying!

In Ascalon, no rich guy would raise only one hundred thousand at a time because it would make them

look petty.

He didn’t want that, so he raised the sign in his hand, “Twenty million!”

Julia immediately looked at Claire, who was holding a piquant fruit in her hand and was shelling it with

her head down without any reaction, Julia plucked up her courage and raised the sign in her hand up,

“Twenty million and one hundred thousand!”

Paxton was speechless.

Damn it!

One hundred thousand again?

The stone had gone from one and a half million to twenty million and one hundred thousand, the other

gamblers had long since given up, putting down their boards and watching with interest the fight

between Paxton and Sean.

Paxton’s friends looked at each other and one of them whispered, “Paxton,

it’s just one stone, you might lose money if you keep raising the price…”

Paxton’s face had long since turned red; it wasn’t that he had to have the

Chapter 147. Embarassing

Okay, Tine!

He clenched his teeth, didn’t even bother to hold up his sign and shouted, “Forty million!”

Julia immediately looked at Claire and asked excitedly, “Should we keep

raising?”

“No.” Claire lifted her teacup, elegantly sipped her coffee, and smiled lightly, “The emerald in this stone

is only worth thirty–five million at

most, we can make some money if we bid it at thirty million and one hundred thousand, but if we buy it

at forty million…”

Julia understood and said in a second, “That will be a big loss!”

Claire raised an eyebrow, “Exactly.”

The emcee stood on the stage, his eyes staring unblinkingly at Sean and Claire, he was waiting for

them to raise their bid just like all the gamblers

present, but after waiting for a full two minutes, they didn’t hold the sign

1. up.

The manager had long since gotten word that the last raw stone had fetched a sky–high price, so he

rushed up to see that Paxton had already offered a price of forty million, and although Sean didn’t

seem to have any intention of raising the price any further, forty million was already far beyond their

expectations.

He hurriedly gave the emcee a wink and hinted him to take it for what it was

worth.

The emcee, without delay, called out, “Forty million once.”
