"I would like to see how much money you have! I bid six hundred million!"
One of the wealthy bosses said!
"I'll bid too! Six hundred and thirty million!" A bald man said coldly.
"I'll bid too. Six hundred and fifty million!"
At the auction, several big bosses were irritated by Chuck.
Nancy was furious. There was no chance for them.
The price had sky-rocketed to almost seven hundred million!
There won't be the slightest bit of chance!
Nancy was so furious that she wanted to curse!
"The guy must be frightened now. It's six hundred and fifty million. How could he bid more?"
"Of course he can't! He just spent three hundred and eighty million a moment ago! How can he have the money? It's impossible!" The guests were making their own assumptions that Chuck didn't have the money to bid anymore.
Everyone there was wealthy. How could Chuck be in the same league as them?
Yolanda glanced at Chuck without saying a word.
She could feel the change in Chuck since his return. He was calm and composed.
Meanwhile, Chuck remained calm!
However, in Nancy's eyes, Chuck's expression only made her mad!!
He didn't have the money. Why was he so calm?
"It's no fun bidding in tens of millions! One billion!" Chuck said as he raised the sign.
The audience burst into an uproar!
"One billion? Is he serious?"
"He raised it by 350 million!"
"Could it be that this guy comes from some super wealthy family?"
"Who knows?"
All the people in the room burst into an uproar because of Chuck's sudden remark.
Yolanda was dumbfounded. One billion?
She knew that it was nothing to Chuck. His calm and composed expression clearly showed that she had underestimated how rich he was!
Nancy was stunned, frozen!
He actually bid one billion? Did he have that much money?
The auctioneer's jaw dropped. One billion?
He had presided over so many auctions and never had he seen such a high bid before!
It was really a sky-high price!
"Alright, this guest bids for one billion. Is there anyone else who will bid higher than this guest?" The auctioneer roared excitedly!
The people who had just bid were furious at that moment!
Chuck had insulted them!
How could they be insulted by a reckless young man who didn't even have the slightest experience in gemstone investment?
"Boy, do you even have that much money?" The bald man said coldly.
It was challenging even for them to come up with a lump sum of 1.4 billion, let alone for Chuck!
"It's none of your business if I have the money. If you want to buy it, just bid for it. If not, then shut up," Chuck said coldly.
"F*ck!" The bald man was fuming.
Everyone was clamoring!
Was Chuck looking for death? Didn't he know how powerful that bald man was?
He dared to humiliate the bald man in public. Did he really want to die?
As expected, a reckless fool would always be a reckless fool!
It was not a pity at all for him to die!
"No one is bidding. Auctioneer, why don't you sound your hammer?" Chuck said.
"Yes, sir!"
It was unimaginable!
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Nancy couldn't stop smiling bitterly. She had just been humiliated. She was showing off in front of Chuck who had a net worth of billions.
"Well, you never asked!"
"Fine, I misjudged. He is indeed rich. However, he has paid too much for the three pieces which he will not make any profit from. Conservatively, it is estimated he may lose 400 million!"
Nancy said seriously.
She heard the analysis of the bosses, therefore she shared the same view.
If Chuck's bid was too high, he would definitely suffer a loss!
Yolanda was nervous. He could lose so much money?
Everyone was laughing at him. They all wanted to see Chuck make a fool out of himself.
Chuck came out from the backstage after settling the payment.
Nancy no longer had her doubts. She didn't expect Chuck to be no any ordinary person. He was just keeping a low profile. Who would have thought that such a person could have so much money!
"I, I'm sorry for what happened just now," Nancy said while lowering her head. She was too embarrassed to face him.
"It's okay." Chuck didn't mind.
"He really paid for it. He is really super wealthy."
"I'm certain that his family is rich. He looks like a fool, where else could he get his money from?"
"That's true!"
The mocking laughter continued. When Chuck walked over, everyone followed him. It seemed that they were going to cut the stones.
The stones were worth 1.4 billion. What kind of gems were in those stones?
They were not too surprised. They just wanted to know how much Chuck would lose!
"Open the first one." Chuck pointed at a stone.
The staff member immediately cut the stone.
Chuck was full of confidence while Nancy sighed. So what if he had the money? He didn't have a good eye for these things. He was bound to lose money!
