Chapter 861

Vickie gave Quincy an appreciative glance.

"Ms. Quincy’s still the smart one."

Massimo Nolan was dumbstruck.

Why did he have the feeling that he was being cast aside?

Even if he felt under-appreciated, he knew in his heart that Gregory was not truly giving up but was waiting until the end to fight it out.

Soon, the blonde-haired foreigner was defeated.

Sighing helplessly, the other party shook his head in disappointment. He then turned back and made a fist and palm salute to demonstrate his admiration to Mr. Clinton and as a signal that he gave up.

A smug look appeared on Mr. Clinton's face.

This time, Mr. Clinton had probably slugged it out and gambled almost all of his possessions. So even though he was not the richest one present, he was the one who offered the highest price.

In the end, through the bidding war between Mr. Clinton and that foreigner, the Arcane Jade’s base price of $80 million was raised to $1.5 billion!

On the stage, the host took a look at the silent scene, and with a smile, he said, "Mr. Clinton is now bidding for $1.5 billion, is there anyone else in the audience who would like to raise the price again?"

No one else answered.

As such, the host started to shout, "Mr. Clinton at $1.5 billion going once!"

"Mr. Clinton at $1.5 billion going twice!"

"Mr. Clinton..."

"2 billion!"

A low, charismatic voice suddenly interrupted her words.

The eyes of the beautiful host brightened. She immediately looked towards the source of the sound but found that it was the young man in the first row, who had not made a sound since his first bid at the very beginning.

In fact, she had already noticed Gregory because she was not from this circle and hence she did not know of Gregory Graham.

Yet due to his handsome looks and extraordinary body, she could not help but notice him from the moment he entered the hall.

At first, when the Arcane Jade came out, he called out the price once. She expected that he would follow a second time, but she never heard him afterward.

The host felt a little disappointed, thinking that perhaps he was just an average person, which would explain why he would stop so early and not compete with these people.

However, she did not expect him to stay until the end!

The beautiful host immediately smiled as she said, "This gentleman of number 3 is now raising the price to $2 billion! May I ask if there is anyone who’d like to bid more than $2 billion?"

As soon as Gregory opened his mouth, cold sweat broke out all over Mr. Clinton’s body.

That was Gregory Graham.

The boss of the Dragon Regiment and the heir of the Graham family.

He admitted that he could not possibly compete with Gregory in terms of financial standing. Though now that Gregory had jumped out after he had made such a high bid, what else could he do?

Should he give up?

A look of struggle flashed in Mr. Clinton's eyes.

He was determined to take this Arcane Jade down today no matter what.

After coming over and observing the people in the audience, he found that although the vast majority of them were a threat to him, he could still take a gamble if he desperately wanted to take this piece of jade.

Only after he saw Gregory Graham did this certainty broke.

He knew that regardless of its usefulness to Gregory, as long as that man was interested in it, he would not allow it to fall into someone else's hands.

So before the second half started, he came over to check on Gregory.

At that time, Gregory did not show any interest and he was relieved.

Unexpectedly, Gregory actually came for this as well!

What should he do?

Mr. Clinton’s face was so glum as he could not stop wiping the sweat from his face.

Massimo smiled and turned back to look at Mr. Clinton before he said, "Uncle, are you okay? If you can't continue, just admit it."

Mr. Clinton's face changed once again.

After all, it was $2 billion, so he did not dare to raise the price again.

Moreover, even if he raised the price again, who knew if Gregory would continue to fight with him?

No one knew how much Gregory’s net worth was, but according to previous statistics, it was rumored that if one added up all the richest businessmen in the area, including the largest local mogul — the Nolan family, it would still be no match to him.

Not to mention that Mr. Clinton was a mere businessman who depended on the Nolan’s for his livelihood.

In the end, Mr. Clinton revealed a stiff smile and accosted him, "Since Young Master Graham likes it, then, of course, I can't take your love away.

Please go ahead, Young Master Graham."

Massimo raised his eyebrows as he did not expect Mr. Clinton to back down so quickly.

With his eyebrows raised, he let out a light snort and turned around.

Seeing the situation, the host on the stage began to announce.

"Number 3 Gentleman has bid $2 billion, is there no further increase?"

No one below spoke.

No kidding, who would dare to take what Gregory Graham wanted?

As such, she shouted, "$2 billion going once!"

"$2 billion going twice!"

"$2 billion going thrice! Deal!"

When the auction hammer landed with a bang, the deal was sealed.

Since this was the last item and the deal was done, this meant that the auction had come to a successful end.

After the host gave her thanks, the lights in the hall lit up. Everyone got up together and walked outside.

When they were all outside, many people immediately rushed over to congratulate Gregory.

Although most of them did not mean it, no one minded at such an occasion.

Gregory socialized with every one of them with a faint smile on his face. Yet upon closer inspection, he did not look like he was as happy about obtaining the greatest treasure as they imagined.

No one knew the reason, but they did not dare to guess more as well, so they left after bidding him goodbye.

The last one to come out was the defeated Mr. Clinton.

Mr. Clinton was a distant uncle from Massimo Nolan’s maternal side of the family. In fact, the two families were slightly at odds, but for some reason, the other side had been relying on the Nolan’s to make money.

During the Nolan family business’s succession war this time, as Mr. Clinton was the cousin of Massimo's mother, he had supported Massimo’s other paternal cousins-cum-rival, so Massimo did not take kindly to him.

Thus, when he saw that Mr. Clinton had come out with a glum face, he immediately went forward to ridicule him.

"Uncle, why aren't you happy? Don't mind it. Even if you didn't get the treasure, you just saved yourself $2 billion! But if it was $2 billion, how many years would you have to scrape benefits from my family?"

Mr. Clinton looked up and glared at him coldly.

In a cold voice, he said, "Young Master Nolan’s not even at the company at this time, but out flirting with a woman. Does Old Master Nolan know about this?"

Massimo choked.

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 His bright smile froze on his face.

After a while, he sneered.

"Yes, I'm out for fun during work hours, but how much better are you, Uncle? Tsk, and fantasizing about immortality... What’s the use of living forever when your family’s sucking other people's blood to live?"

“You!"

Mr. Clinton was furious.

Quincy knew better. The two were relatives after all, and the other was Massimo’s elder. If they had made a scene in such a public place, Massimo would inevitably get punished when he got home.
