Chapter 427
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
Olivia was worried that she had heard wrongly. She turned to Huntley, who was sitting on the sofa.
âWhat did the auctioneer say just now?â
Huntley was also excited.
The Golden Voodoo King. This was the Golden Voodoo King! All the voodoo worms listened to the Golden Voodoo Kingâs orders. With the Golden Voodoo King, no matter the worm, whether Chunjot or Chunlot, they all had to listen to the Golden Voodoo Kingâs orders.
She clenched her fists. Her palms were covered in sweat, and her voice was trembling. âMs. Taylor, if thereâs a 60% chance of the voodoo incense drawing out the voodoo worm in Mr. Smithâs body, then the Golden Voodoo King must have a 100% success rate of that.â
âReally?â Olivia felt something in her chest surge up. Her heart felt like it was about to leap out.
âReally!â Huntley nodded repeatedly.
After getting an affirmative answer, Olivia felt unsteady on her feet and stumbled. Daniel was the one who went forward to support and hand her a glass of water. He said in a low voice, âDonât get so worked up. Steady now.â
Extreme joy and sorrow were both harmful to Oliviaâs body. Daniel was worried that she was too emotional and would not be able to breathe properly.
Olivia nodded and suppressed the tears in her eyes. She took a deep breath and finally calmed down.
She had waited and waited, and now she had found a solution.
Grandpa was finally saved.
At the thought of her grandfather, the tears that Olivia had tried so hard to suppress streamed down her face again. She buried her head in Danielâs shoulder for a long time.
The auction officially began.
The appearance of the Golden Voodoo King was like a drop of water falling into a pot of boiling oil.
Immediately, it practically ignited the atmosphere at the venue and caused a stir. It made everyone go crazy in an instant.
There were all kinds of crazy bids. In just half an hour, the price soared to 200 million dollars.
Olivia wrung her hands and paced around the room. Seeing that the price was still rising, she bit her lip and turned to Captain Chavez. âContact Mr. Book. I want to borrow as much gold as possible.â
Captain Chavez nodded solemnly and quickly contacted Mr. Book. After a moment, he said happily, âMiss Taylor, Mr. Book has already prepared gold and itâs been transported to Wayne Country. Thatâs 600 million dollars!â
Olivia was elated. âThatâs great.â
Then, she turned to Daniel. âDaniel, when will Ellis arrive?â
Daniel looked at his phone. âHeâs already here. The gold has been deposited in a local bank. Thereâs a total of 800 million dollars. Heâll be here soon with the stub.â 600, 600, and 800 added up to a total of 2 billion dollars. That was enough! âTell the others that we must win the bid for the Golden Voodoo King!â
After giving the order, Olivia sat on a chair and waited anxiously.
In Room 303, Alexander sat on the sofa with a worried expression. He did not expect the Golden Voodoo King to appear. This thing was the nemesis of all voodoo worms. With it around, the Grant familyâs Great Nourishment Pill would lose its effect.
If others bought this item and used it to deal with the Grant family, they would suffer a huge loss.
He looked at Damian. âHow much gold did we bring?â
Damian frowned. âMr. Alexander, we came in a hurry this time and werenât prepared to bid for it. I only brought forty million dollars in spare gold.â
40 million dollars?
Alexanderâs expression was cold. It was barely any money. What could he do with such a small amount of money?
He was panicking.
Bettany did not understand the importance of the Golden Voodoo King to the Grant family, but when she saw how nervous Alexander was, she also panicked. She wanted to go forward and comfort him, but she took back her hand just after she raised it.
She didnât know anything. How could she comfort him?
She felt dejected.
Her gaze fell on the room opposite theirs, and she suddenly thought of Olivia. If this were Olivia, what would she do?
She would probably sit on the sofa indifferently and tilt her head slightly to think of a suitable solution.
That woman had always been smart.
Bettany sat on the sofa and imitated Olivia. She said calmly, âAlexander, the person opposite us is Olivia. Would she be determined to get the Golden Voodoo King?â
Alexanderâs heart skipped a beat. Oh, right. He had almost forgotten about Olivia. Seeing that what she said was working, Bettany continued, âAlexander, we can wait for Olivia to bid for it. After she bids for it, we can think of a way to snatch it.â
Alexanderâs eyes lit up.
Damian also turned to look at Bettany. He did not expect her to be so clever. However, she had a poor character and was a classic ingrate The auction of the Golden Voodoo King was very intense. Offers for it had already reached 1.4 billion dollars.
Olivia stood in front of the window and quietly looked at the center of the auction hall.
At this point, very few people were bidding. In order to prevent Room 302 from interfering, Olivia did not bid. Instead, she asked Room 333 to bid.
Now, only two or three private rooms were competing with Room 333. Moreover, those people were very hesitant. It seemed that they were about to give up. Room 333 had always been going strong. In the end, it won the bid for the Golden Voodoo King for just under 1.8 billion dollars, âThatâs great!â Olivia placed her palms on the table, overjoyed.
In Room 302, Alexander saw that it was not Olivia who won the bid for the Golden Voodoo King, but the people in Room 333. His eyes were filled with malice.
people in He instructed in a low voice, âDamian, bring your men and trail the pe Room 333 later. The rest of you, follow me.â
After the Golden Voodoo King was taken by Room 333, it was taken around a few turns and delivered to Room Olivia.
Olivia held the small sealed box with a nervous expression. Even her heart was tensed up.
She looked up at Huntley. âCan I open the box?â
Huntley came over and looked around carefully. âIt should be fine. The Golden Voodoo King is in a deep sleep now and is not aggressive. Letâs open it and take a look. After confirming that itâs the real deal, weâll lock it up.â
Olivia nodded, then placed the box on the table and carefully opened it.
There was a little golden bug with wings lying inside. It was chubby and not scary at all. Instead, it even looked a little cute.
After checking, Huntley nodded at Olivia. âItâs the Golden Voodoo King.â
Olivia heaved a sigh of relief and closed the box.
The moment it closed, something unexpected happened. A sharp whistle sounded.
The fat little worm in the box, originally sleeping soundly, suddenly moved. It flapped its wings and flew towards the door.
Olivia was shocked and furious. She immediately got someone to close the door.
âQuick, stop it!â
However, the little bug was too fast. It flew out in the blink of an eye.
Olivia could not care about anything else and followed closely behind.
The fat little worm seemed to have a target. It followed the whistle and rushed. towards Room 311.
Olivia followed closely behind and rushed into Room 311.
Seven or eight people were sitting inside, five men and two women. One of the women looked especially familiar. That was Kaira.
At this moment, she seemed to have become a different person. She no longer looked as weak as she did before. Instead, she had a cold expression.
Meanwhile, the Golden Voodoo King was lying quietly on her wrist.
âGood bug. The woman looked at Olivia with raised eyebrows as she comforted the Golden Voodoo King. Her tone was teasing. âSurprised, arenât you?â
Olivia frowned. Her gaze lingered on the womanâs upturned eyes for a few seconds before she said firmly, âYouâre not Kaira!â
The woman was stunned for a moment before she chuckled. Her voice was like a silver bell as she looked at Olivia indifferently and said in a low voice, âYouâre quite smart. Unfortunately, you provoked the Dale family. Youâre not seeing the sun tomorrow.â
Olivia was not in the mood to listen to her. She kept her gaze on the Golden Voodoo King and said coldly, âWhatâs going on with the Golden Voodoo King?â âOh.â The woman lowered her eyes. âYouâre talking about the worm. Of course, Iâm baiting you out. The worm has already recognized me as its master. Itâs my worm. It only listens to my call.â
At this point, the smile on the womanâs face grew wider and wider, and her eyes were filled with mockery. âHow is it? It feels good to suffer a double loss, right? 1.8 billion dollars. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Youâre really rich. However, this bit of money is not worthy of my worm. The reason why Iâm letting you have it for this price is because I want to see what you look like falling from heaven to hell.
âI bet it feels good! Hahaha.
The woman laughed wildly. âWerenât you very smug? You even sent that stupid girl Kaira to the mental hospital. Now, I want to see how you can still be smug.â
âSomeone grab her!â
