The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119: HE USED HER LIKE THAT?

Every now and then, Cane had to put Redmond in his place, or else, he would always try to test his patience and tempt his fury.

Seeing the anger in the alpha’s eyes, no matter how much Redmond wanted to provoke him, he needed to stop.

In the end, Redmond looked down at the stage again and this time there were only three people that were still bidding, while the price had reached a thousand gold.

"Damn... we didn’t even get to the black market and we were already robbed of a thousand gold?" Ethan clicked his tongue. "Are you sure this is the best solution ever? What is the difference between this and that swindler merchant?"

"There are a variety of things in the black market, so of course, you will be able to buy not only crops, but also other things as well, more so, you can visit the black market often with the entry," Redmond replied to his question. "This is an investment for a lifetime."

"We don’t need other things, right? We just want to buy what we need." Ethan countered, which made Redmond glare at him and Will could only sigh at the two of them. They started it again.

"Twelve thousand!" The auctioneer shouted the final price that the bidder gave. "Anyone?!"

"Fifteen thousand!"

Finally, Cane raised his number and started to bid as well. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}

On the side, Iris watched him and understood why he didn’t bid earlier, it was as simple as; because he didn’t want the hassle. If they were determined to buy it, since that was their only intention to come here, they just needed to be the highest bidder.

Iris could see that Cane didn’t want to waste his breath shouting gold after gold. She had noticed that he was of taciturn type, he didn’t even want to bother with Redmond’s remarks if it was not necessary.

"Twenty thousand!" The auctioneer hollered. His eyes locked on the bidder number seven on his right side on the second tier, waiting for him to bid higher.

Meanwhile, Cane waved his hand to make Iris come closer to him, which she did like before. "What are they saying?"

Cane nodded at the other bidder. Thankfully, from where they were standing, they could easily see people, who were standing behind the railings.

There was an old man with white hair, who was arguing with a young lady beside him. Iris moved closer to Cane’s side because she couldn’t get a good angle, only for them to be pressed together.

Cane could feel her warm body against his and saw her serious expression. Her auburn hair stuck to her neck and when he looked down, he could see his mark peeking from the collar of her dress. Her sweet scent assaulted him. He couldn’t help but accept that the mate bond was starting to grow between them.

After that, there was another item that was being auctioned, but they didn’t stay to see what it was, because they had obtained their main reason to come here.

"When can we get the item?" Cane asked Redmond, as the four of them walked out of their cubicle.

"You can get it right now." Redmond looked at Cane and then added. "But, I need to tell you that this magical tattoo will be painful."

"Do you really think my alpha is afraid of pain?" Ethan asked disdainfully. They had gone through more than just pain. This man seemingly didn’t know when to stop.

"Bring me there," Cane said curtly, cutting off their bickering as they glared at each other, while Iris walked beside the alpha. She turned her head to look at the two of them, just in case they started to bite each other’s heads off.

However, she was pulled all of a sudden to the side, until her face bumped into Cane’s chest and she hastily straightened herself.

"Watch ahead when you walk," Cane said, as he let her go, but his eyes were on the man that almost bumped into Iris. It was Alan and Corry.

After the two of them disappeared at the corner, Cane resumed walking away toward the back stage, where he would get the magical tattoo.
