Upon noticing that the Martial King's face had darkened, Henry continued to mock him with a smug expression on his face, "What? Haven't got enough in your bank balance now? How are you going to compete with me if you're that poor? I'll raise the price once more, 15 million yuan."
The Martial King had a strong foundation in the main city.
However, it was different for Henry; he handed complete control over Radiant Island. Now that its power has spread throughout Wanshan District, it was reaping profits at an unbelievable speed. Plus, having Wade and the others on his team, it was no exaggeration that wealth was just flowing into their bank accounts at an incredible rate. To Henry, money was simply just a number.
And the biggest thing about that was that Henry did not have to consider about any possible plans for the future at all. He had no sense of belonging in the Core. He did not even know how long he would be there for. All that money he had would someday be useless anyway, there was no time better to use it than now.
The Martial King glared at Henry. It was no longer a matter of money. It was a matter of winning, but there was no way he could afford to beat 15 million yuan.
"Are you still going to raise your bid?" When Henry saw that the Martial King was unable to continue raising the price, he raised two fingers and said, "20 million."
The Martial King inhaled deeply, clenched his fists, and slowly relaxed them. "So you're just going to get in my way until the very end, Syl?"
"25 million." Henry raised the price again.
"30 million!" The Martial King shouted through gritted teeth, he knew that he would get into trouble for saying that, but he could not back down at that moment.
"Deal." Henry snapped his fingers and said, "Come on, make the payment."
Henry turned on his communicator, ready to accept the transfer.
The Martial King was confused.
"What are you waiting for?" Henry stared at the Martial King with a puzzled expression and said, "I've already bought this store. I am the owner now, so pay up, what else are you waiting for?"
Henry twisted his waist as he spoke, then his mouth widened into a grin.
The moment the Martial King saw Henry acting in such a manner, he felt an unbearable tightness in his chest, and soon found it difficult to breathe.
Deputy Officer Zhou gritted her teeth. "Shame on you, Syl Zhang!"
"Lord Martial King, please pay up, hurry." Henry rubbed his thumb and index finger, like a proud rascal, anyone who saw that look on his face would definitely feel the urge to knock him out with a heavy hook to the face.
The Martial King slowly raised his arm, ready to make the payment to Henry.
"Haha, I'm just pulling your leg." Henry put down his arm and turned off his communicator just as the Martial King was about to make the payment. "As for your purchase, it's free from me."
"No need for that!" The Martial King said through clenched jaws.
"Suits you then." Henry shrugged his shoulders and walked aside. He then said to the salesperson, "Where's the gown? Give it to General Lin, free of charge. If Lord Martial King here insists on paying for it, just pick something for him."
How could Henry possibly allow another man to buy his woman things?
The Martial King trembled with anger. At that moment, Henry had him in a checkmate, once again putting him in an embarrassing spot.
Sylvia smiled and looked at Henry walking away, then turned around and said to Deputy Officer Zhou, "Please thank Mr. Zhang for his kindness on my behalf. Let's go."
Sylvia then disappeared from the store gracefully.
The Martial King glared at Sy I furiously and said, "Syl Zhang, just you wait, one day, I shall make you pay."
"Whatever." Henry replied without a care in the world. "Help yourself out, I won't be seeing you off."
