Chapter 222

Emmanuel decided not to probe further, and Terence, too, didn’t consider

Emmanuel a fool. Instead, he perceived his trust as a unique form of

intelligence. Emmanuel reminded him of his younger self, who wouldn’t be

guarded against those he trusted, and would only get help from those that

he trusted. Emmanuel didn’t ask any more questions not because he had no

suspicions of his own, but because Emmanuel had placed his trust in him.

Emmanuel chose not to dwell on it too much and believed that Terence

wouldn’t cause him any harm. If Terence said that ‘l‘ represented 100, then it

must be true. The auction was already underway, and the exquisite jewelry

was being sold off by the professional female auctioneer. The final sale

prices of each item remained undisclosed, with only the winning bidders

announced. Soon, a golden phoenix pendant was placed on the auction

stage. Even through the screen, Emmanuel couldn’t help but be mesmerized

by its dazzling brilliance.

“What a stunning gemstone carving. Mackenzie will surely love it!” Emmanuel

couldn’t help but sigh with admiration.

Hearing that, Terence laughed heartily and reassured him, “Then find a way

to acquire it. Don’t worry! I still have substantial savings, and if you fall short

on funds, I will help you out!” He feared that Emmanuel might back down, as

to him, the wealth of the Quillen family paled in comparison to having a

great–grandson.

“Thank you, Grandpa. Let’s see how things unfold!” Emmanuel neither refused

nor agreed, as he opted to gauge the final price before making a decision.

After all, the jewelry auctioned thus far didn’t appear exorbitantly expensive. It

seemed plausible to secure the phoenix pendant with 3,000.

*

Little did he know that this auction house followed an international currency

format, where three zeros represented one unit. So, when Terence mentioned

100, it meant 100,000. Furthermore, they employed international currency

units, with an exchange rate to the currency of approximately 10 to 1. In short,

the number 100 represented roughly 1 million! This was the most upscale

auction venue in Yeringham, so how could there be an option for 100?

“This golden jade phoenix will be mine!”

Just as the auctioneer announced the commencement of bidding,

Beatrix snorted upon hearing that and refrained from further accolades. Her

concern was for her brother–in–law. What if this item was snatched away by

Hubert? What would he have left to offer her sister?

“300!” Just as Hubert basked in his satisfaction, another bidder immediately

placed a higher bid.

Given that the golden jade phoenix was estimated to be worth at least 10

million on the market, it was unsurprising for someone to bid on such an

amount. “400!”

At that moment, Hubert’s voice resounded once more. “Ladies and

gentlemen, the Verkade family is determined to acquire this golden jade

phoenix. I hope everyone present can leave that to us!” Upon hearing the

mention of the ‘Verkade family‘, other potential bidders fell silent. After all,

who in Yeringham didn’t know that the Verkade family was a powerful dock?

Who would dare to snatch food from the mouth of a tiger?
