The Lethal Love Hunter
Chapter 210 A Rich Fool
The entire auction scene was shouting at Jacob, âRaise your paddle. man, keep raising it!â
Jacob was suddenly stunned.
I merely wanted to spend a little money to buy a diamond ring for fun. how did it tum into such a dramatic situation?
Eighty million?
Eighty million for a diamond ring that was only worth five million in the market??
I was not crazy again!
Facing the jeering crowd. Jacob was inwardly complaining incessantly
The calls for him to continue raising his bid in the venue grew increasingly louder.
For a moment. Jacob found himself in a predicament.
Miranda saw Jacob hesitating to raise his sign, she forcefully nudged him. âJacob, keep bidding!â
Jacob felt as if he had swallowed a dead fly, his stomach churning.
If he had continued filming, he would have been a huge sucker!
Robin was clearly trying to inflate the auction itemâs price on purpose.
I absolutely couldnât fall for this bastardâs trick!
âAre you going to quote or not!â Miranda, embarrassed by the surrounding calls and gazes, urged impatiently.
Jacob grimaced, saying. Miranda, spending eighty million on this ring is a total loss! If you like, we can go directly to the jewelry store in the market tomorrow to buy..â
âHeh, considering money when buying an engagement ring, how ridiculous!â Roxie sneered at Jacob, saying coldly.
Jacob had wanted to lash out in anger.
Intimidated by the fact that the other party was the young lady of the leader of Hashville Martial Arts Union, I had no choice but to swallow
my anger.
Miranda was slightly taken aback.
Turning to look at Jacob, her eyes were filled with anger, âJacob, were you fake to me from the very beginning? You actually hesitated over a proposal ring!â
âImportantly, you lost to Robin because of this little money, donât you feel embarrassed?â
âAfter this, how do you expect me to get by in Hallcesterâs high society? Youâve completely ruined my reputation!â
âIf you didnât continue to raise the price, we would let it go!â
âMiranda, you misunderstood, I didnât mean thatâ¦â Jacob wanted to explain, but seeing that Miranda was no longer paying attention to him, he gritted his teeth and shouted, âOne billion!â
I dared you to add more again!
When Jacob shouted out such a price, the uproar in the venue abruptly
stopped, only to be replaced by a wave of gasps
Such a price!
Buying this ring was indeed too expensive!
Believed that the one in the VIP Zone would not raise the price again.
âTwo hundred million!â
Before Miranda had a chance to celebrate, Robin, who had been leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, directly shouted out a price of two hundred million.
The auction site was silent at this moment.
The thoughts of the wealthy, they really couldnât fathom!
Jacob was even more speechless.
After a moment of contemplation, he said in a low voice. âMiranda, we really canât mess around with this lunatic Robin anymore. Something worth five million, bought for two hundred million, thatâs truly insane!â
Miranda also started to hesitate.
She looked up at Robin in the VIP Zone, and immediately felt a surge of anger in her heart.
What right did a con artist with no background have to compete with
me!
âJacob, letâs bid again!â Miranda urged, âSince Robin wants to trick us. letâs fight fire with fire, letâs raise our bid again!â
âRaise the price again?â Jacob winced, as if a sharp instrument had
Chapter 210 A Rich Fool
stabbed him in the heart.
Miranda leaned in close to his car and whispered. âLetâs bid one more time, a bit higher!â
âThen, no matter how high a price he shouted, we wouldnât follow anymore! At that time, letâs see how he would end up. Two hundred million, haha, he would definitely end up crying!â
Upon hearing this, Jacob laughed.
âExactly, exactly! Miranda, just do it your way! Screw him over big time!â
Having said that, he raised the sign and shouted, âTwo hundred and fifty million!â
âBuzz!â A scream erupted at the auction site.
The money of the rich was just a number!
An ordinary diamond ring, in less than five minutes, astonishingly soared from five million to two hundred and fifty million!
These two people really had a runâin!
Todayâs auction was extremely heated, starting off brutally with every move drawing blood!
After a brief shock, some people began to speculate about who would ultimately receive the Blossom Rain.
âGuess if that guy in the VIP Zone would raise the price again?â
âIt had already reached 250 million, to bid higher would be idiotic.â âPoverty has limited your imagination, those kind of people have no
concept of money
âI guess, he would raise the price!â
âTwo hundred and fifty million for once!â The auctioneer on the stage. excitedly quoted the price
The entire place immediately fell silent.
A look of schadenfreude was plastered on the faces of Jacob and Miranda
They were intently watching Robin in the VIP Zone, waiting for him to raise the bid.
Haha! This time. Iâll definitely make him hurt! Regret!
âTwo hundred and fifty million, twice!â
The auction site was silent. the auctioneerâs excited voice echoed. stirring every beating heart present!
Jacob and Mirandaâs hearts were almost leaping out of their throats!
As the auctioneerâs voice calling out âTwo hundred and fifty million for the second timeâ faded away, they did not hear Robin raise his paddle to bid again.
âHmm? Could this guy possibly stop bidding?â The smile on Jacobâs face gradually froze as he muttered under his breath.
Miranda said confidently, âHe will definitely raise his sign again! Jacob, keep your cool!â
Jacob subconsciously nodded, but his heart couldnât help but race!
10:1
âBlossom Rain. two hundred and fifty million for the second time, is there anyone else who would like to raise the price?â The auctioneer raised his hammer, asking again.
At that moment, in the auction room, it was so quiet that one could almost hear everyoneâs heartbeats pounding
Everyone instinctively looked in the direction of the VIP Zone where Robin was
âThis guy should have held up the sign, why hasnât there been any movement yet?â
âYou just didnât understand, they were playing for the thrill. Usually, they would wait until the moment before the auctioneerâs final hammer fall to raise their bid.â
âBidding for items with a sign like this truly had a strong sense of ceremony.â
âAlmost there, almost there! The auctioneer is about to drop the hammer!â
âWhy did I feel like that guy had no intention of continuing the auction?â
âLook at him, he was meditating with his eyes closedâ¦â
Amid a wave of discussion, Jacobâs heart was nearly bursting.
At that moment, he had an ominous premonition.
He felt that Robin would not continue to bid with signs..
âTwo hundred and fifty million, three times! Sold!â The sound of the
auctioneerâs hammer resounded. âCongratulations to Mr. Jacob from Zone 1 for winning the bid on Blossom Rain!â
Jacobâs mind buzzed, going completely blank!
Damn! Didnât Robin continue to bid in the auction?
This wasnât right!
âAuctioneer, youâ¦you called it too early!â Jacob stood up, pointing in Robinâs direction, shouting loudly, âHe hasnât raised his paddle yet. how could you have dropped the gavel?â
The auctioneer on the stage was instantly confused.
What did this mean?
Are you an idiot?
If they didnât raise their card, I wouldnât continue.
A burst of laughter also came from the quiet auction site.
âHoly shit! This guy must be a rich idiot, right? He actually said such nonsense!â
âCould it be that he was shouting random prices from the beginning just to cause trouble at the venue?â
***
Despite the jeers and laughter filling the venue, Jacob still hadnât realized his absurdity and continued to say, âRobin!â
The scene immediately fell silent, everyone held their breath and looked at Jacob, not knowing what he was going to say.
âRobin, why did you stop bidding?â Jacob asked, pointing at Robin in
annoyance.
A wave of laughter once again swept through the auction site.
Robin flicked his eyelids, indifferently saying, âWhy should I hold up a sign?â
Jacob was confused, âShouldnât you have kept raising the bid?â
âShould 17â Robin chuckled lightly, âSpend 250 million on a worthless ring? Iâm not brainless.â
âYou!â Jacob trembled with anger. âYou did this on purpose!â
Miranda also snapped out of her daze, stood up and pointed at Robin, scolding angrily, âRobin, youâre really despicable! Did you deliberately bid high because you knew Jacob wanted to buy Blossom Rain to propose to me?â
âHow dark was your heart!â
âHmph! Iâm about to marry Mr. Walsh, the date is set for the day after Mr. Donovanâs banquet! Robin, let me give you a piece of advice, give up! I will never be interested in you!â
âYou actually did such a disgraceful thing to stop the progress of my wedding with Mr. Walsh, donât you feel disgusted?â
Robin chuckled. âIf you canât afford it, donât bid!â
The scene was also filled with sighs.
âTaking a picture of an engagement ring, and youâre still so petty, boring!â
alford it, donât embarrass yourself in such a
âReally, if you canât situation. No one is forcing you to bid.â

âAnyone was eligible to bid on the auction items at the auction. These two were really rascals!â
Roxic couldnât stand it anymore. âAre you guys sick??â
âBefore, you were bidding like a madman, and now youâre making all these excuses. Isnât that embarrassing?â
âThe engagement ring, how could it be measured by money?â
âIf you canât afford it, donât bid. There are rings worth a hundred. dollars all over the street market!â
Jacob and Miranda were suddenly speechless.
At that moment, the auctioneer asked, âMr. Walsh, please be quiet. If you are intentionally causing trouble and not genuinely bidding, we can have the security personnel of the Barrett family intervene!â
Miranda protested. âBut auctioneer, that person named Robin wast suspected of bid rigging, we have doubts!â
The auctioneer snorted coldly, âGentlemen, Mr. Bruce has always been bidding in a very orderly manner. Itâs you who are breaking the rules! Shut up immediately, or I will deal with both of you on the grounds of disrupting the venue!â
Miranda and Jacob immediately shut their mouths.
If you angered the head butler of the Barrett family, you would be in trouble.
Jacob had no choice but to raise his hand, âMr. Auctioneer, I have a request. I ask that the committee give us the halftime break.â

âI wanted to take this stage to propose to Ms. Brown, and also, to put this Blossom Rain on her!â
âAbsolutely!â the auction er agreed without hesitation, âI believe no one present here would have any objections, right?â
âNo objections!â everyone almost unanimously said.
