Chapter 376
Even as the daughter of the Grant family, two billion dollars in cash was a stretch. Any more than that, and she would need to ask for money from the family.
“2.1 billion dollars.” Roderick was calm.
Jayla exclaimed with gritted teeth, “2.5 billion!”
She had a murderous gaze. Even if she had to borrow money, she would regain her dignity today!
With a smile still plastered on his face, Roderick raised the bid, “2.6 billion.”
His nickname, Big Buck Brooks, was not merely a nickname. The sum of money truly held no significance to him.
“Three billion!” Jayla was seeing red. She looked like a lioness about to tear into her prey.
“Three …” Roderick raised his paddle, about to continue bidding when Dustin pulled his hand down.
“Forget about it. Just let her have it.
“What?” Roderick was surprised. “Mr. Rhys, isn’t this item something you need? Why are you giving it up? If it’s because of the price, there’s no need to worry. I can deal with it.”
“It has nothing to do with money.” Dustin shook his head. As he stared at the precious item on stage, his expression was filled with regret. “The item on auction is not a thousand–year green lotus. It’s of no use to me.”
“What? Are you saying that it’s a fake?” Roderick failed to contain his shock. Almost no one dared to auction off fake items due to the consequences that came with it.
Dustin shook his head again. “I won’t call it fake. It’s just not old enough. I’ve taken a good look at it. Even though it’s a remarkable green lotus, it’s only 900 years old. It’ll take another hundred years to mature into a true thousand–year green lotus.”
