Chapter 36
Chapter 36 Have 1 Offended You?
Benjamin didn’t hesitate to bid 60 million dors.
Several women who took part in the bidding were shocked to see that the price had increased by 15
million dors at a time. Their eyes reddened.
Two of them looked at the ne and reluctantly gave up the bidding.
The others couldn’t bear to give up and then gritted their teeth to continue participating in the bidding.
Their bidding was much gentler than that of Benjamin and Julian.
One woman added 1.5 million dors, making it 61.5 million dors.
Another woman added 750 thousand dors, making it 62.3 million dors.
Seeing that other people were also bidding, Benjamin silently paid attention to Julian’s situation. Seeing
that thetter was leaning back and seemed to have no intention of bidding, he narrowed his eyes
again.
“Did my prediction go wrong? Julian didn’t want this ne? Or is he ying psychological warfare
with me?” Benjamin pondered.
He sneered inwardly, thinking that there was no rush, and he would observe for a longer time.
Julian didn’t bid, and neither did Benjamin. The four women continued to bring the bidding price higher
by adding 750 thousand dors at a time.
Logically speaking, 750 thousand dors was also a huge sum of money!
However, the people on the scene that night were probably brainwashed by the previous bidding
operations between Julian and Benjamin. Now, they felt that there was no point in adding 750 thousand
dors at a time anymore. It was dull to them.
They all looked forward to Julian and Benjamin fighting for a perfect ending. After all, that was thest!
In fact, many people didn’t want to provoke young masters like Benjamin and Julian that night.
Otherwise, many people on the scene would have fought for the “Eye of the Sky.”
Looking at the four women bidding back and forth, Benjamin was getting a little sleepy, and he
wondered why Julian hadn’t bid yet.
He swept a nce at Julian from the corner of his eyes. Seeing that Julian’s gaze did not linger on the
ne, he doubted his own prediction again.
Squinting his eyes, he tentatively joined the bidding again by adding 750 thousand dors to the
original 72.75 million dors, making it 73.5 million dors.
Julian saw that Benjamin bid. He suddenly sat up straight and decisively bid 78 million dors.
When Benjamin saw the figure of 78 million dors again, he cursed endlessly in his heart.
Almost without a trace of hesitation, Benjamin added 4.5 million dors, making it 82.5 million dors.
“Hmph! He wants to buy it at 78 million dors to humiliate me and impress Annalise again! In his
dreams!” Benjamin thought.
Seeing Benjamin’s bid, Julian smiled, and he crossed his arms in front of his chest and leaned back on
the
chair.
This triumphant look happened to fall into Benjamin’s eyes.
He was shocked. “Is Julian setting me up again?” he pondered.
Seeing that Benjamin and Julian were fighting again, the four women, who were bidding, frowned.
There was no way they could win over these two spendthrifts!
As a result, two more women decisively gave up the bidding.
The other two women were still waiting and hesitating.
They couldn’t bear to let such a beautiful ne fall into someone else’s hands, yet they felt that their
capabilities were not enough topete with Benjamin or Julian.
While the two women hesitated, the auctioneer shouted enthusiastically, ‘82.5 million dors once!”
When Benjamin heard such a voice, panic instantly rose up in his heart.
He had never been so scared in his life. He was really scared after being tricked by Julian so many
times earlier.
He had already spent more than 165 million dors, which included 90 million dors for a pot, and
over 75 million dors for a painting much smaller than the Tiger Roar painting.
If he spent another 82.5 million dors on that again, he would really be called a squanderer.
The most important thing was that the money in his ount was less than 82.5 million dors now. If
the ne really fell into his hands, he would have to ask his grandfather or father for money
immediately. Even though he was only short of a few million dors, if someone found out, he would be
in utter embarrassment.
“82.5 million dors twice!” the auctioneer shouted again.
Benjamin became even more panicked.
“82.5 million dors-”
Just as Benjamin closed his eyes helplessly, a bidding voice rang out. It was Julian who bid 82.8 million
dors
It was equivalent to that he only added 300 thousand dors to it.

When Benjamin saw that figure, he was so angry again. “Hmph! How I wish I could raise the price
again to p Julian that bastard!” he cursed.
After Julian called out the price, his slender fingers tapped on the tabletop with certainty. He looked
rxed as though he just wanted to embarrass Benjamin.
82.8 million dors once!” the auctioneer shouted. “This is the final auctioned item for tonight. Is there
any other bid? Anyone else?”
He looked at Benjamin frequently.
The auctioneer knew very well the value of the collection. He was aware that the “Eye of the Sky” was
much more valuable than the pot and Ezra’s painting.
However, no matter how he tried to give Benjamin a hint, thetter had no intention of bidding anymore.
He had no choice but to continue shouting, “82.8 million dors twice!”
There was a rich woman who wanted to bid, but her husband stopped her. “Benjamin Quigley and the
nouveau riche are fighting with each other. Do you want to be the cannon fodder that spikes hatred?”
“But I really want it!” said the rich woman.
‘T’ll buy you a bag. This ne is too expensive. Not only won’t you get it, but you’ll also make them
hate you.”
Hearing that, the rich woman had no choice but to give up in dismay.
“82.8 million dors thrice. Congrattions to number 141, Mr. Parks!” The auctioneer dropped the
hammer excitedly.
Julian raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the sound of the hammer dropping.
Originally, he had thought that it might cost him hundreds of millions of dors to buy the “Eye of the
Sky,” but he didn’t expect that he would get it at the price of 82.8 million dors easily.
Seeing the smile on Julian’s face and the affection in his eyes for that ne, Benjamin eximed
inwardly that he was fooled by Julian again.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. “Julian, you scumbag! How sinister he is! He was
really ying psychological warfare with me. Most importantly, I lost!” he thought angrily.
His initial prediction was right. Julian really wanted that ne.
He was so angry!
The auction ended sessfully, and the staff handed the ne to Julian.
After Julian swiped his card, he immediately put the ne around Annalise’s neck.
Annalise’s first reaction was to refuse. After all, it was a ne worth more than 75 million dors. It
was
too expensive.
Julian leaned over and whispered next to her ear, “In my father’s eyes, you are now my pride.”
Annalise understood that he couldn’t lose to Alexander.
As she thought about it, she smiledpliantly. She epted his ne and slightly raised her
head to reveal her long neck, letting him gently take off her previous ne and put on the “Eye of
the Sky.”
There were all kinds of envious eyes and voices around them.
Annalise nced around slightly and coincidentally met Abigall’s gaze, which was full of jealousy.
Annalise smiled triumphantly at thetter.
Abigail was so angry that she almost wanted to rip Annalise apart on the spot.
It was only until Alexander wrapped his arms around her waist that she stomped her feet and walked
outside.
Julian reached out his hand toward Annalise, and thetter put her hand into his palm.
Madeline looked at them with a smile. Her eyes curved into crescents.
“They are such a perfect match!” she thought.
Thinking of Benjamin’s cheating, she looked at him with contempt.
Benjamin was angry all night long, and he lost so much money. Seeing the contempt in Madeline’s
eyes at that moment, he said rudely, “Olddy, I have never offended you, have 1?”
