Chapter 210 A Rich Fool
The entire auction scene was shouting at Jacob, “Raise your paddle. man, keep raising it!”
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. “Jacob, keep bidding!”
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 item’s price on purpose.
I absolutely couldn’t fall for this bastard’s trick!
“Are you going to quote or not!” 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..”
“Heh, considering money when buying an engagement ring, how ridiculous!” 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, “Jacob, were you fake to me from the very beginning? You actually hesitated over a proposal ring!”
“Importantly, you lost to Robin because of this little money, don’t you feel embarrassed?”
“After this, how do you expect me to get by in Hallcester’s high society? You’ve completely ruined my reputation!”
“If you didn’t continue to raise the price, we would let it go!”
“Miranda, you misunderstood, I didn’t mean that…” Jacob wanted to explain, but seeing that Miranda was no longer paying attention to him, he gritted his teeth and shouted, “One billion!”
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.
“Two hundred million!”
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 couldn’t fathom!
Jacob was even more speechless.
After a moment of contemplation, he said in a low voice. “Miranda, we really can’t mess around with this lunatic Robin anymore. Something worth five million, bought for two hundred million, that’s truly insane!”
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!
“Jacob, let’s bid again!” Miranda urged, “Since Robin wants to trick us. let’s fight fire with fire, let’s raise our bid again!”
“Raise the price again?” Jacob winced, as if a sharp instrument had

stabbed him in the heart.
Miranda leaned in close to his car and whispered. “Let’s bid one more time, a bit higher!”
“Then, no matter how high a price he shouted, we wouldn’t follow anymore! At that time, let’s see how he would end up. Two hundred million, haha, he would definitely end up crying!”
Upon hearing this, Jacob laughed.
“Exactly, exactly! Miranda, just do it your way! Screw him over big time!”
Having said that, he raised the sign and shouted, “Two hundred and fifty million!”
“Buzz!” 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 run–in!
Today’s 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.
“Guess if that guy in the VIP Zone would raise the price again?”
“It had already reached 250 million, to bid higher would be idiotic.” “Poverty has limited your imagination, those kind of people have no
concept of money
“I guess, he would raise the price!”
“Two hundred and fifty million for once!” 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. I’ll definitely make him hurt! Regret!
“Two hundred and fifty million, twice!”
The auction site was silent. the auctioneer’s excited voice echoed. stirring every beating heart present!
Jacob and Miranda’s hearts were almost leaping out of their throats!
As the auctioneer’s voice calling out “Two hundred and fifty million for the second time” faded away, they did not hear Robin raise his paddle to bid again.
“Hmm? Could this guy possibly stop bidding?” The smile on Jacob’s face gradually froze as he muttered under his breath.
Miranda said confidently, “He will definitely raise his sign again! Jacob, keep your cool!”
Jacob subconsciously nodded, but his heart couldn’t help but race!

“Blossom Rain. two hundred and fifty million for the second time, is there anyone else who would like to raise the price?” The auctioneer raised his hammer, asking again.
At that moment, in the auction room, it was so quiet that one could almost hear everyone’s heartbeats pounding
Everyone instinctively looked in the direction of the VIP Zone where Robin was
“This guy should have held up the sign, why hasn’t there been any movement yet?”
“You just didn’t understand, they were playing for the thrill. Usually, they would wait until the moment before the auctioneer’s final hammer fall to raise their bid.”
“Bidding for items with a sign like this truly had a strong sense of ceremony.”
“Almost there, almost there! The auctioneer is about to drop the hammer!”
“Why did I feel like that guy had no intention of continuing the auction?”
“Look at him, he was meditating with his eyes closed…”
Amid a wave of discussion, Jacob’s heart was nearly bursting.
At that moment, he had an ominous premonition.
He felt that Robin would not continue to bid with signs..
“Two hundred and fifty million, three times! Sold!” The sound of the
auctioneer’s hammer resounded. “Congratulations to Mr. Jacob from Zone 1 for winning the bid on Blossom Rain!”
Jacob’s mind buzzed, going completely blank!
Damn! Didn’t Robin continue to bid in the auction?
This wasn’t right!
“Auctioneer, you…you called it too early!” Jacob stood up, pointing in Robin’s direction, shouting loudly, “He hasn’t raised his paddle yet. how could you have dropped the gavel?”
The auctioneer on the stage was instantly confused.
What did this mean?
Are you an idiot?
If they didn’t raise their card, I wouldn’t continue.
A burst of laughter also came from the quiet auction site.
“Holy shit! This guy must be a rich idiot, right? He actually said such nonsense!”
“Could it be that he was shouting random prices from the beginning just to cause trouble at the venue?”
***
Despite the jeers and laughter filling the venue, Jacob still hadn’t realized his absurdity and continued to say, “Robin!”
The scene immediately fell silent, everyone held their breath and looked at Jacob, not knowing what he was going to say.
“Robin, why did you stop bidding?” Jacob asked, pointing at Robin in
annoyance.
A wave of laughter once again swept through the auction site.
Robin flicked his eyelids, indifferently saying, “Why should I hold up a sign?”
Jacob was confused, “Shouldn’t you have kept raising the bid?”
“Should 17” Robin chuckled lightly, “Spend 250 million on a worthless ring? I’m not brainless.”
“You!” Jacob trembled with anger. “You did this on purpose!”
Miranda also snapped out of her daze, stood up and pointed at Robin, scolding angrily, “Robin, you’re really despicable! Did you deliberately bid high because you knew Jacob wanted to buy Blossom Rain to propose to me?”
“How dark was your heart!”
“Hmph! I’m about to marry Mr. Walsh, the date is set for the day after Mr. Donovan’s banquet! Robin, let me give you a piece of advice, give up! I will never be interested in you!”
“You actually did such a disgraceful thing to stop the progress of my wedding with Mr. Walsh, don’t you feel disgusted?”
Robin chuckled. “If you can’t afford it, don’t bid!”
The scene was also filled with sighs.
“Taking a picture of an engagement ring, and you’re still so petty, boring!”

“Anyone was eligible to bid on the auction items at the auction. These two were really rascals!”
Roxic couldn’t stand it anymore. “Are you guys sick??”
“Before, you were bidding like a madman, and now you’re making all these excuses. Isn’t that embarrassing?”
“The engagement ring, how could it be measured by money?”
“If you can’t afford it, don’t bid. There are rings worth a hundred. dollars all over the street market!”
Jacob and Miranda were suddenly speechless.
At that moment, the auctioneer asked, “Mr. 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!” Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Miranda protested. “But auctioneer, that person named Robin wast suspected of bid rigging, we have doubts!”
The auctioneer snorted coldly, “Gentlemen, Mr. Bruce has always been bidding in a very orderly manner. It’s you who are breaking the rules! Shut up immediately, or I will deal with both of you on the grounds of disrupting the venue!”
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, “Mr. Auctioneer, I have a request. I ask that the committee give us the halftime break.”

“No objections!” everyone almost unanimously said.
