Chapter 268 How Could The Fish Take The Bait?

The man raised his cold eyes and glanced at the screen with a chilly and

ruthless aura.

Suddenly, his thin lips curled up slightly with a hint of evil in his eyes. “Continue!” said he.

After Pamela received the order, she raised her bidding paddle. “10 billion dollars!”

The price was the upper limit of the top–tier member fund pool.

According to the auction’s rules, the supreme member had to increase the price by double.

In other words, if they bid 10 billion dollars, the other party would follow up with 20 billion dollars!

Did an imitation queen’s crown actually cost 20 billion dollars?

No matter how wealthy the supreme member was, he shouldn’t be so stupid, should he?

However, the auction butler said, “The supreme member bids 20 billion dollars.”

The crowd was in an uproar.

He was so damn rich!

Even though everyone present was either rich or noble, they could not help but feel dizzy when they

heard the astronomical figure of 20 billion dollars.

Apart from being shocked, they couldn’t help but wonder who on earth the

person was.

The 20 billion dollars was offered without any hesitation!

In the private room, Rachel frowned slightly. Her eyes were filled with coldness. “The other party is

digging a hole for you!”

The other party knew he could not win, so he deliberately shouted the upper limit of the fund pool to

make David pay a high price!

“A supreme member?” The man sneered with disdain in his eyes.

The buzz–cut man’s face was filled with a gloating smile. “Boss, 20 billion dollars for the queen’s

crown. I’m afraid the other party can only sufferin

silence!”

Pamela aside said faintly, “Who asked him to show off with his money? Serves him right!”

“Aren’t you a bit curious about who the other party is?” asked the blond man.

The buzz–cut man and Pamela looked at each other. “Do you know?”

When the man heard that, the corners of his lips curled into a flirtatious. smile, making his stunning

face even more dazzling. “David Jones,” he said softly, lifting his thin lips.

Upon hearing him, a smile flashed across Pamela’s lips. “So it’s him.”

With David’s wealth, a mere supreme member of the Fujiby auction was not worth mentioning.

They had repeatedly suffered at David’s hands, and they had finally caused him a dumbfounded blow

this time.

Rachel saw through the other party’s thoughts at a glance. How could David not see through it?

However, he must have made all the preparations since he had made a

move.

“If the bait is not enough, why would the fish take the bait?” David’s lips. curled into a faint smile as he

looked at Rachel with an exceptionally gentle expression.

A surprised look crossed Rachel’s face. “So you knew what they were up to, didn’t you?”

“Of course,” said David.

When Rachel heard him, she stared at him without blinking. Then, a smile appeared in her eyes. “Do

mature hunters often appear in the form of prey?”

David stood up and adjusted the diamond cufflinks on his sleeves. “Miss Grey, you flatter me.”

Unsurprisingly, the sale of the queen’s crown to a supreme member for 20 billion dollars at the auction

was hotly debated.

It successfully piqued Jane’s curiosity.

Who the hell was the other party? He could actually bid 20 billion dollars.

She had never seen so much money in her life. If only she could marry such a

man.

A plan formed in her mind as soon as she thought of it.

“Well, Olivia, I have a stomachache and want to go to the toilet. You and my brother go ahead.” Jane

clutched her stomach and pretended to be in pain. Her poor acting skills certainly didn’t escape Olivia’s

notice.

Olivia pretended to be concerned and asked, “Do you want me to go with you?”

“No, thanks!” Jane quickly shook her head and refused. “Tell my brother I’m leaving when you see him

later.”

Then she hurriedly turned around and left.
