Chapter 51: Fight against Me?
"Ladies and gentlemen, here comes to the seventh collection. Although it is not the finale of this auction, it has a very unique meaning and value..." The host suddenly smiled and spoke with fervour, instantly making the noisy auction scene became nearly silent.
"The collection is the Azure Star!" The host spoke up and two beautiful ladies walked up to the auction stage with a wooden box containing a necklace.
"The reason it is called the Azure Star is that the pendant of this necklace is an extremely pure sapphire." The host did not say much because the entire auction scene already had countless eyes staring at the Azure Star, and even the sound of rapid and messy breathing could be faintly heard!
It did not even need to be introduced by the host as there were too many famous and powerful people here who had heard the legend of the Azure Star!
At this point, the host's introduction about it was apparently unnecessary. The host smiled and came straight to the point, "I don't need to tell you guys more about the Azure Star as I believe you all know it. The reserve price is five million yuan!"
"Seven million yuan!"
"Eight million yuan!"
"Nine million yuan!"
Instantly, many of the high-class people could no longer control themself. They raised their hands to compete for it!
The Azure Star was so attractive that they were willing to give it a try even if they knew that Young Master Sandoval was here!
Greta gazed at the Azure Star and her lips curled into a light smile. The Azure Star was not only attractive to men but was actually even more attractive to women!
Even a person like Greta who rarely wore jewellery was also extremely captivated at that moment.
"Twelve million yuan!" Greta raised her hand without hesitation.
"Fifteen million yuan!" A discordant voice sounded. Greta turned her head and saw that Young Master Sandoval raised a placard to bid for it again. He looked at Greta with a strange smile. They gazed at each other and the air was filled with the intense vibe!
"Is he purposely opposing us?" Harriet who was standing beside frowned and said.
"Twenty million yuan!"
Greta gritted her teeth and continued to increase the bid amount. She was really intrigued by the Azure Star.
"Thirty million yuan!" Young Master Sandoval raised his hand again. The entire auction scene was quietened. Many people were looking at Young Master Sandoval in shock, finding it hard to believe. Young Master Sandoval had just spent twenty million yuan to auction a collection. Now, he was going to splurge again?
This auction became another personal battle between Greta and Young Master Sandoval.
Those who had attended Young Master Sandoval's reception dinner last time suddenly understood something and gave up to raise the bid amount. This was a matter between Young Master Sandoval and Greta so they were not suitable to interfere.
"Young Master Sandoval is really daring in lavishing," Hal who was on the side, smiled and said.
Young Master Sandoval smiled ghastly, "Today, I'll make her fail to bid on any of them."
This was Young Master Sandoval's overt conspiracy! He did not have the will to hide it at all!
"Thirty-five million yuan!"
Greta gritted her teeth. A wave of unwillingness swept her and she did not believe that she would be overpowered by Young Master Sandoval in every aspect!
"Fifty million yuan!" Young Master Sandoval sneered and abruptly raised his hand!
The entire scene was silent. Startled, countless eyes were gazing at Young Master Sandoval and they were overcome with surprise!
Even though the Azure Star was precious, the bid of fifty-million yuan was way too high! Even many of the dignitaries here did not have fifty-million yuan!
In addition to the previous twenty million yuan... Many people were looking at Young Master Sandoval with a complicated expression. Many young and beautiful ladies from the wealthy families began to secretly ask about Young Master Sandoval's phone number...
Greta pondered for a moment and finally gave up on the Azure Star with a sigh.
"Greta, do you like the Azure Star very much?" Harriet, who was standing at the side asked curiously.
Greta nodded lightly and she looked disappointed, "It's too bad that we can't bid anymore."
"I'll help you." Out of the blue, Maxwell, who was on the side, smiled pleasingly.
"You?" Greta took a disdainful glance at Maxwell.
"I have money, let me help you." Maxwell patted his chest with a calm and confident look.
"Please stop talking nonsense," Greta sneered and did not believe Maxwell's bullshit, "If you have money, you'll not become the son-in-law by adoption of the Sandoval family.
"I do, I really can help you to auction it," Maxwell quickly said.
"How much do you have? Hundreds or thousands?" Greta sneered in disdain. She remembered that Maxwell had borrowed a few hundred yuan from her earlier. He did not have a few hundred yuan but was thinking of helping her to get the Azure Star.
He was simply daydreaming!
Suddenly, without waiting for Greta to have any reaction, Maxwell shouted, "One hundred million yuan!"
The entire scene was silent again. Countless eyes were looking at Maxwell in shock and they were flabbergasted!
Some of them even stood up in the excitement and looked at Maxwell!
Countless pairs of gazes were looking at Maxwell as they felt incredulous when they looked at this man next to Greta!
"One hundred million yuan? How is that possible? This guy surprisingly spends one hundred million yuan just for the Azure Star!"
"One hundred million yuan is enough for him to buy multiple Azure Star, he is obviously retarded!"
"I saw him at the reception dinner last time, isn't he Greta's driver? Even Greta also gives up to increase the bid, but he dares to increase the amount until one hundred million yuan, is this real?" Young Master Sandoval's expression changed slightly. There was an additional touch of fierceness in his gaze towards Maxwell...
"One hundred million yuan..." Hal's expression changed and there was a haze of gloom in his gaze towards Maxwell.
"What are you doing?" Greta was bewildered, looking at Maxwell.
"Auctioning it off for you." Maxwell smiled faintly.
"You!" Greta's face swelled with anger, "Are you crazy or is there anything that happened to you? One hundred million yuan, where can you get this sum of money, I don't have such a sum of money to auction it off!"
"Don't you know you can't go back on your word after you've made a bid in the auction?" Greta questioned him coldly. She was exceptionally anxious now. If Maxwell really auctioned it off, she would encounter problems as she did not have that large sum of money!"
"Don't worry, I have plenty of money." Maxwell gave a wink.
"You have money? Are you bragging?" Greta sneered. She had been with Maxwell for three months but had never seen this guy have plenty of money!
And now he was bragging about it in front of her... She had reached the end of her forbearance.
"One hundred and fifty million yuan!" Suddenly, Young Master Sandoval raised his hand and this made the entire auction scene had an uproar in shock! The bid of Azure Star was surprisingly raised until 150 million yuan! Even overseas did not have this record ever!
Everyone was going crazy. The host flushed as he was in a state of utter excitement!
Greta was dumbfounded! Young Master Sandoval was obviously going to fight against her to the end and he never thought of stopping to oppose her!
"Since you want to play, I'll play with you!" Young Master Sandoval murmured while his eyes looked cold.
He already got to know Maxwell's details from Hal. Maxwell was just a useless husband who was a son-in-law by adoption but he dared to shout out a bid of one hundred million yuan! Even Greta would not dare to do that! He was crazy!
Young Master Sandoval was curious to know how Maxwell would solve the money issue in the end!
"Two hundred million yuan!" Maxwell abruptly stood up and spoke loudly.
Boom!
Everyone roared and burst with excitement as they were startled again! Awe-struck, they looked at Maxwell. Being just a driver of Greta, he was competing with Young Master Sandoval!
He was crazy! He was absolutely crazy!
Two hundred million yuan! It was definitely a world record! The Azure Star never had such an extraordinarily high price!
Maxwell looked calm. Was two hundred million yuan a big sum? To him, it was merely a number, and Young Master Sandoval? To him, Young Master Sandoval was just a young master of the Sandoval family but he wanted to fight against him? He, Maxwell, had a few hundred billion yuan in just his overseas bank account. Luxury bungalows and sports car and all kinds of private jets... He had all these! There were also weapons which were ten billion yuan worthy in the storage at his base... So, did he lack the two hundred million yuan?
Since you, Young Master Sandoval wanted to fight against me, I would fight with you till the end!
"Two hundred million yuan..." Finally, Young Master Sandoval's face changed. He stared at Maxwell and he instantly made a distasteful face... He knew some information about Maxwell from Hal. A mere son- in-law by adoption like trash and he had to rely on Greta to get his monthly living expenses...
Two hundred million yuan. Even Greta could not possibly have that big sum of money... Wasn't he just a driver, how could he???
"Two hundred million yuan for the first time!"
When the host spoke, many curious eyes were looking at Young Master Sandoval as they were excited to know if Young Master Sandoval would raise the bid amount again this time.
Whereas, Young Master Sandoval's face was constantly twitching and changing... It looked extremely distasteful...Although many people were watching him, hoping that he would raise the bid amount again, he did not utter a word.
"Two hundred million yuan for the second time!"
The host spoke again. Young Master Sandoval's face looked even worse and his body was trembling...He was the young master of the Sandoval family in the capital city but he lost to a person at this point who was just a CEO's driver!
From the moment Maxwell made his move, Young Master Sandoval had not realized that he had already been in a disarrayed manner!
"Two hundred million yuan for the third time!"
"Deal!"
The entire scene was overwhelmed with excitement but Young Master Sandoval was sitting at his place with an embarrassed face, not saying a word!
Maxwell turned his head and glanced at Young Master Sandoval. His eyes were full of provocation!
How dared you bully my woman!☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
