The auction commenced not long after. Jasper and Wendy had already returned to the banquet hall. A big boss like Zachary Law no doubt had a custom seat for himself. Meanwhile, the younger ones like Jasper and Anna gathered in the hall while waiting for the auction to begin.This occasion was a gathering of the stars. Everyone shone in all of their extravagance.Even the air was filled with the lingering scent of wealth and fame. 　Being as meticulous as always, Jasper also noticed that Mitch Langdon and Zane Lancaster were seated together. The two of them were peering at him as subtly as they could.It was evident that having a common enemy allowed them to achieve a certain degree of understanding with each other.“How did the both of them get together?” Anna asked, furrowing her brow. Based on logical reasoning, Zane only had his father, Bob Lancaster. Nonetheless, Mitch was different. His father was Kennedy Langdon, whereas his grandfather was Wallace Langdon. They were both

“This collector’s item is known as the Angel’s Heart. It is a jewelry piece that Ms. Shannon White brought back from New Zealand more than a decade ago.“According to Ms. Shannon White, there’s a secret within this collector’s item. However, she doesn’t know what that secret is either. She didn’t manage to find out even after analyzing it thoroughly for more than a decade.”“Before Ms. Shannon passed away, she wanted to put this collector’s item up for auction. All the proceedings will be donated to the Leukemia Research Foundation. The starting price is 1 Harbor Dollar.” 　This jewelry piece selling at starting price of 1 Harbor Dollar looked like a very simple and ordinary pendant. The pendant itself was molded in the shape of an angel holding a heart. Based on its material and appearance, it looked like it was worth 100000 Harbor Dollars at most.　However, Shannon White was one of the most famous philanthropists in Harbor City. Her death, which had been caused by leukemia, caus

If Jasper was so easily defeated, how could he have trusted him enough to take time off for his health at such a crucial time? 　How could the Laws rest assured while placing such a large bet on him? Countless discussions were still going on in the function hall. A lot of people were shocked by Jasper’s strong financial power and boldness.If he could take out 100 million Harbor Dollars in cash, no one would even bother to look at how much the Angel’s Heart was really worth. This 100 million Harbor Dollars would be enough to crush Zane Lancaster’s arrogant stance.A dark expression formed on Zane’s face. Jasper had raised the bidding price to the maximum.There was no way for him to continue following the bid. He had been arrogant and smug up till a second ago. He suddenly snickered. “Alright, alright. You’re good. This jewelry piece is only worth a maximum of a few hundred thousand Harbor Dollars. This fool here actually bought it for 100 million Harbor Dollars. Don’t you kn

Everyone knew that if this pink diamond was officially put up in an auction, it would definitely sell at a price that was much higher than this. Everyone’s gazes and expressions changed instantly. They looked at Jasper like he was a deity.What kind of person was he to be capable of having such an accurate and sharp insight?How did he know the secret of Angel’s Heart? “I’ve already given the diamond to Anna. It’s not for sale,” Jasper said matter-of-factly.　　With this sentence, he firmly denied the opportunity to gain a profit of 20 million Harbor Dollars at once.The expression on Jasper’s face was so calm and indifferent that it seemed as if he had just rejected a poached egg delivered by the chef during breakfast.　　“That’s really...a pity.” 　　Heartbroken, the chairman returned the pink diamond to Anna. He had no other choice. If Jasper was not willing to sell it, it was impossible for him to snatch it from him, right? Anna stared at the pink diamond in her hand dumb

Zachary shook his head and laughed out loud. Utterly amused, he could not miss out on the opportunity to mock Kennedy Langdon. As expected, Kennedy’s expression darkened. The other bosses chuckled happily after meeting gazes with each other.Both situations occurred during an auction and involved a battle of wealth. Nevertheless, the one who had the upper hand between Mitch and Jasper could easily be discerned. “Mr. Mitch Langdon has called for a bid of 100 million Harbor Dollars for this blue and white porcelain bowl. Going once.“Going twice.“Going thrice, it’s a deal! Con-Congratulations to Mr. Mitch Langdon,” the host announced. The host did not even dare to look at Mitch, who had a ferocious expression etched on his face. He began auctioning the next item after carrying out the follow-up processes in a hurry. The items to be auctioned grew fewer and fewer. Jasper did not call for a bid after that. With a look that could kill etched on his face, Mitch was still fu
