Chapter 149
Adam had led a very miserable life for the past few days. 3
After getting into trouble a few days ago, he had been severely beaten up by his second uncle.
Moreover, his uncle also banned him from leaving the house, 2
However, due to his extreme love for antiques, it was impossible for him to miss out on this auction.
2
Therefore, he tried his best to escape the house before he participated in the auction today.
However, he did not expect to see Charlie here today. 4
He had always been very disdainful and doubtful of Charlie''s skills. In his opinion, his second uncle
had beenpletely deceived by this young man. 1
However, he did not dare to provoke Charlie face to face. When he saw Charlie making a bid for the
pearl ne, he made a bid immediately because he wanted to challenge Charlie. 3
At this time, Charlie nced at Adam before he turned around and faced the auctioneer again. After
that, he continued his bid. "Seven hundred thousand dors!" 1
Adam followed in his footsteps. "Eight hundred thousand dors!" 1

Jacob could no longer sit still. Therefore, he stood up before he told Charlie, "Charlie, forget it.
There''s no
point in fighting him." 2
Charlie simply smiled before he said, "Just look at how I am going to y with him."
After that, Charlie raised his hand directly and said," Eight million dors!"
Everyone in the auction hall was dumbfounded at this time.
The other party was bidding for eight hundred thousand dors and he had actually bid for the
ne at eight million dors? Was he insane?
At this time, Adam was also dumbfounded because Charlie was not ying by the rules. Since his
bid was eight hundred thousand dors, the other party would usually call for nine hundred
thousand dors or one million dors at most. Why would he bid eight million dors on the pearl
ne? 5
Was he really insane or did he have too much money t 0 burn?
Charlie raised his brows as he smiled at Adam. "Mr. Quinton, please go on!"
Adam coughed before he said, "Do you think I''m crazy? Why would I buy this useless pearl
ne for eight million dors? Forget it! You can have it." 5
Even though Adam did not want to lose face, he was very unwilling to pay eight million dors for
the pearl ne. 2
The value of the pearl ne was seven hundred dors at most. If he really spent more than
eight million dors just to buy the pearl ne, his second uncle would definitely break his legs
when he went home! 12
It was aplete waste of money! 2
Charlie stared at Adam as he said disdainfully, "Mr. Quinton, you are giving up so soon? You look
like you can''t afford it."
Everyone startedughing as soon as Charlie''s words fell.
Adam blushed as he replied, "You''re so irritating! Who says that I can’t afford the pearl ne?
I’m just not stupid enough to pay eight million dors for this useless ne. I’m really interested
to see where you are going to get the money to pay for the ne!"
Charlie smirked before he replied, "If you can''t afford i t, just admit it. What is the point of such
lengthy exnations right now?"
After that, the auctioneer dropped his gavel.
“Eight million dors. Deal. Congrattions to Mr. Wade!"
At this time, the assistant came over to Charlie with a wireless credit card machine in her hand as
she said," Mr. Wade, please pay with your card now."
Everyone was staring at Charlie at this moment.
Adam sneered before he said, "Charlie, why don’t you try swiping your card now? I''d like to see how
you can afford to pay eight million dors!"
Everyone else was also curious to see how things would turn out. Since Charlie was so confident in
his bid for the pearl ne, would he really be able to pay for it?
Charlie smiled before he took out Graham''s ck card from his pocket and swiped it on the credit
card machine immediately.
There was no password needed. 4
He swiped the card sessfully! 2
At this time, the assistant handed the receipt over to Charlie before she said, "Mr. Wade, your pearl
ne will be delivered to you before the end of the auction!" 1
"Perfect!" Charlie replied as he nodded.
Everyone was shocked at this time. 1
It seemed as though Charlie was really rich! 2
This man was really bold for buying a pearl ne a t the price of eight million dors when it was
really only worth seven hundred thousand dors at most! 3
At this time, Charlie looked at Adam before he smiled and asked, "Mr. Quinton, are you satisfied
now?" 2
There was a burst ofughter as someone ridiculed Adam. "I think Mr. Quinton cannot afford to pay
for the item because he''s caused so much trouble to his family, am I right?" 2 "Hahaha. I think that
Mr. Quinton is too weak to even lift a knife!" 3
"Hahaha!"
Adam could feel his face burning.
Damn. That young man actually had the money to pay for the ne!
He was really embarrassed now! 2
After that, Adam gritted his teeth before he said," Charlie, I will not lose to you in the next bid!” 2
Charlie nodded before he replied indifferently, "Okay, then let''spete for the next item."
Adam did not know why Charlie could be so courageous, nor did he know that his uncle had given
Charlie his ck card... 3
Within a short while, a few more collections were auctioned off, followed by the introduction of a
semifinished topaz jade. 2
Half of the jade was wrapped in a rock to show that this was natural and authentic. The starting bid
for the jade was eight hundred thousand dors.
