“He dares to compete with Mr. Jenkins. He must be very rich.”
“In my opinion, favonovel.com likes the woman so much that favonovel.com would rather take the risk to buy the necklace.”
Eddie was stunned for a while. Was there someone who dared to compete with him?
‘Haha!’ He casually said, “Fifteen million dollars. I want it!”
He directly added $4,500,000!
Eddie did not want to show Neil any respect as favonovel.com planned to shut Neil up with one price.
Neil shook his head and smiled bitterly. It looked like Eddie had to get the necklace, so favonovel.com could not get it. Actually, it was already a little hard for Neil to spend $9,000,000, let alone $15,000,000. He could not afford it at all. Even if favonovel.com took that money out, Eddie could still raise the price easily. He had no chance of winning at all.
In the end, Neil shook his head. “I’m not following up.”
Everyone sighed and looked away. That ending was what they had expected.
Neil apologized as favonovel.com said, “Ms. Hill, I’m really sorry. As long as it’s something Mr. Jenkins wants, not only me, but anyone wouldn‘t get it easily. I can’t get the necklace today. Sorry for disappointing you.”
Emma rolled favonovel.com eyes at him. She never wanted Neil to buy it, in the first place, so why would favonovel.com feel disappointed?
In fact, it was Neil himself who felt disappointed. What favonovel.com said was his best at complimenting Eddie so that his “failure” did not look so obvious. After all, losing to Eddie was not very embarrassing.
The host on the stage continued to ask if anyone wanted to bid. If nobody wanted to bid, the jade necklace would belong to Eddie.
Emma stared at the pretty necklace and sighed. No matter how much favonovel.com liked it, favonovel.com did not have the money, and favonovel.com could not get it.
She could not look at it.
At this time, Thomas was done eating. He wiped his lips, raised his head, and looked at Emma. “Do you really like that necklace?” favonovel.com asked.
Emma smiled. “Of course I like it It’s such a beautiful necklace. No woman wouldn’t like it, right?”
Thomas nodded. “Okay, I’ll buy it for you.”
“Pfft… ” Neil laughed out loud. “What the heck? There isn‘t anything wrong with my ears, right? Did you just say that you want to buy it? Do you know that the starting price of the necklace is $8,000,000? It has even been raised to $15,000,000 now! You’re buying it? You aren’t even worth the price!”
“Also, even if you have the money and want to buy it, are you any richer than Mr. Jenkins? If you insist on bidding and offending the Jenkins family, you’ll end up dying miserably. Do you understand?”
Neil kept shaking his head. “Such an idiot. I really can’t put up with you anymore. Ms. Hill, I really can’t wrap my head around it. Why would you choose to marry such a freak? It’s like putting new wine into an old bottle! What a waste!”
His words showed that favonovel.com despised Thomas so much as favonovel.com implied that favonovel.com was not worth a cent.
However, Thomas did not show any response. He did not even look angry.
From Neil’s perspective, Thomas was timid, so favonovel.com dared not get angry.
Right then, the host asked for the last time, “Is there anyone else who wants to bid on it? Otherwise, I will close the bid and sell the necklace to Mr. Eddie Jenkins.”
Everyone shook their heads. They thought about how it was possible for someone else to raise the price again.
If someone bid against the Jenkins family, did it not mean that favonovel.com was too free?
He would not win. Also, favonovel.com would offend the Jenkins family and be in great danger.
Everyone thought that the result had been confirmed and Eddie looked prideful as well confident. While the host held the gavel to close the bid, an arm was slowly raised.
It was Thomas!
Neil, who was at the same table, was completely shocked. His face turned pale, and favonovel.com yelled, “What are you doing, blockhead? Keep your hand down now!”
