“For this round of the competition, you will be authenticating the most priceless items we have. It is a petrified coral. Its estimated value is 10 million dollars. You will each contribute 5 million dollars. You may bet 10 to 20 million dollars.”
As per Killian’s request, the organizers skipped over the round with the Myrena Era pearls and brought out two specimens of petrified coral. The colors of the coral made everyone gasp.
“Wow! I’m amazed that the Antiquities Trading Hall would use such a specimen as a competition item instead of auctioning it off. How generous!”
“This is worth 10 million dollars. Whoever wins will make a killing!”
“This is getting a bit out of hand…”
Killian glared daggers at Dustin, and his gaze was vicious.
“We’ll bet 20 million dollars. Do you dare to take the bet?”
Dustin did not speak for a moment.
“This isn’t about whether he dares to take the bet,” Luna said. “Look at how destitute he looks. It’s a miracle that he could fork out a million dollars. Since the bet is 20 million dollars, he definitely cannot afford it. He doesn’t even have the minimum amount to join.”
When Killian heard that, he frowned. He had not considered this issue. Indeed, the problem was a big one.
If Dustin could not afford it, Killian would similarly not be able to show off and lord over Dustin on his win.
“I’ll take it,” Dustin suddenly said.
“You can afford to take the bet?” Killian looked suspicious.
Dustin took out a card and passed it to the host to swipe through his machine.
After keying in his PIN, 20 million dollars was successfully transferred.
“Where did he get all that money?” Darren and Luna were both stunned.
They were already feeling pressed after losing more than a million dollars. How could Dustin, who was part of a branch of the Langley family, fork out 20 million dollars without hesitating?
Even Simone was shocked.
20 million dollars was a huge sum.
Although Dustin had spent several hundred million dollars to purchase a five-star hotel, Simone was still reeling from the loss of all that money.
After some thought and seeing Dustin’s calm face, she decided to trust him.

Nice one...
Shitty ending but considering overall I give the book .05 out of 5 stars. You used the same plot to many times, too many translation errors, even at the end you screwed around with the font and color because who knows why, the title had nothing to do with the story do I need to continue...
Just move to the enemy and let the snipers kill him for you Dustin. Use him as your shield easy peasy Mac n cheesey....
Tell hell hall said get his ass out here now or I will kill everyone here you have 10 seconds to do what I said. 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0 to late...
Why does Dustin still think he owes his adoptive dad a debt? Sure he saved his life and help raise, taught martial arts etc... till his death but Dustin stayed on and put his life at risk and invested his time and money into his 5 daughters up until they came across their biological brother and kicked him out. Treat him like a thieving dog and have attempted numerous times to kill him. He finally showed some common sense by imprisoning the 1 sister and killing her cousin yet he lets the others slide. With his status and power I would have already killed them off or at the very least taken them and imprisoned them like the 1 and tortured the mom into spilling everything she knows and getting my rightful inheritance, but the author has to drag it out....
He said to mutilate the body and burn it why not start with beheading it and taking it back to show the city and place it as an offering to his family? That's what a great MC would have done....
Lame you change the name of the characters and use the same ole trope how many time are you going to use it? First it was the Langley sisters, then the McCall girl I believe this is the second or third time with Shawna. You need new material author...
Oh my not the weak who the MC showed mercy by not killing him because of some honor bound duty to a dead guy makes a comeback and forces the MC into a corner before the mc finally kills him arc 🤣...
🤣 now this is better just because I took her virginity doesn't mean I'm responsible for her. Love it....
When will he introduce his one eye willy for them to pet, stroke and kiss?...
