Chapter 5684
“You do?
Stefan Augustus snickered before leaning on his chair.
“Do you have something to do that’s more important than me right now?
“Stay back after the auction.
He quickly snapped his fingers to cut Aria Surrey off before she could even speak.
“Let’s continue.”
His calm words seemed irrefutable.
Nobody would even let out a single breath at this very moment.
Miley Surrey peeled a grape before feeding it to Stefan with her mouth.
In front of the consul, only a gentle look could be seen from the proud Fourth Lady.
The auctioneer showed admiration while looking at the sight. Only consuls of sects could make one of the ladies from the four great tribes obey him like this.
Stefan looked around him, completely ignoring everyone’s gaze.
“You’ve all seen the One-Eyed Bead.
“I can safely tell you all, just like the legends say, the bead indeed created by the legendary founder!
“Of the Eight-Eyed Beads, this is also the first to be created!
“The bead is a true treasure! A higher-up of a sect even brought this out to be auctioned off when he was on the verge of death!
“You shouldn’t miss this chance!
“The starting bid is fifteen million dollars!”
The founder of a sect left all sorts of treasures for future generations to discover.
Simply put, the One-Eyed Bead has thousands of years of history.
Many people were excited. The bead would gain immense benefits whether they kept it for themselves or gave it to the three great temples.
That said…
“Thirty million!”
Even before anyone could speak, Stefan moved his head from Miley’s chest before casually raising two fingers.
Thirty million dollars for the bead was not at all that expensive.
It was said that the Six-Eyed Bead started from a hundred and fifty million when it first appeared in Hong Kong.
Then again, nobody would dare challenge Stefan.
Everyone knew he came for this very reason…
But after he doubled the price instantly, their speculations were confirmed.
The Eyed Beads were priceless, but they were also not worth provoking Stefan for.
Everyone showed regretful expressions, unable even to speak a word about it.
“Mr. Stefan, with thirty million!
“Is anyone else interested?!
“Going once!
“Going…”
The auctioneer knew nobody would speak up, but he still had to follow the procedure.
Harvey glanced at Aria. He sighed after seeing Aria, still at a loss for words.
“Seventy-five million!”
Everyone froze before instinctively glancing at Harvey.
Nobody thought someone would dare go against Stefan.
He made it seem like money grew on trees with the price he called out.
‘Where did this guy even come from?’
