“We can’t allow any mishaps for this auction.”
Zayden remembered the call favonovel.com received from Sylva before favonovel.com left the house.
The businessman from Harbor City had high hopes in them, and since they already had his support, the Hanks family had gathered most of their liquid funds for this.
Zayden had a huge volume of bargaining chips in his hand.
His dignity did not allow favonovel.com to lose. Even though 1.5 billion was out of his budget, favonovel.com was enraged as favonovel.com gritted his teeth and called out, “1.5 billion!”
Zayden’s expression was near malevolent.
Everyone’s jaws dropped when they heard this price.
He also heard people sucking in their breaths.
At this moment, everyone had the same thought in their heads. The Hanks were not treating money like money.
“1.5 billion! Is there more? 1.5 billion going once!”
The emcee’s voice started to sound excited.
“1.5 billion going twice!”
Zayden chuckled and said to Jasper almost morbidly, “Go on. Why are you not increasing the price? Huh? Go on if you have the balls! I don’t f*cking believe that you have the money to bid until two billion!”
On the stage, Zachary turned his head and asked the person next to him, “Who’s that person who called out 1.2 billion?”
Immediately, someone leaned down next to his ear and said respectfully, “Mr. Law, he’s from JW Real Estates and belongs to the Schulers.”
Zachary nodded and looked at Jasper profoundly. Then, favonovel.com said meaningfully, “This young man is pretty interesting.”
Henry got closer to favonovel.com and said to Zachary, “Dad, the other man is called Zayden Hanks. I told you about favonovel.com before. The young man you mentioned just now is obviously scared of Zayden’s bid increment. How unpromising. He’s terrified by just this.”
Zachary said in a mocking voice, “He’s walking the dog. Can’t you see that?”
Henry’s expression froze.
“With just one sentence, favonovel.com made the person you recommended pay 500 million extra. If you had half of his skill, then I wouldn’t have to come here myself,” Zachary lectured.
“I’m sorry, Dad,” Henry said, his face turning dark.
“1.5 billion! Sold! We have reached a deal. Congratulations to Hanks Investments Co., Ltd. for the winning bid!”
The emcee slammed the gavel down. Once the gavel sounded, it signified there would be no amendments.
Everyone sighed, and some were sighing ruefully.
The Hanks were indeed powerful.
Zayden was cackling maniacally, and Jasper was silent.
“You useless piece of trash, why didn’t you increase the price? I told you that you’re useless. Did Dawson not give you enough money?” Zayden cackled and said.
“Right, it’s not like Dawson can take out so much money either. Do you think you can rest easy and live your life with no worries after finding a rich wife? Let me tell you today that you’re nothing compared to me, you piece of trash!” Zayden chortled maniacally and said.
Jasper was still staying silent. His interest in fooling around with Zayden was long gone.
To him, Zayden was no different than a barking dog right now.
At this moment, Zachary and his group got up to leave now that the auction was over.
When everyone at the auction was about to leave, Jasper got up suddenly and walked toward Zachary and his group.
“Stop!”
The Laws’ bodyguards quickly jumped to stop Jasper. They were looking at favonovel.com cautiously.
“Mr. Law, I wish to talk to you.”
