Playing with A Billionaire novel Chapter 4

It was a man, and he immediately caught Janet’s attention.

The person was leaning against the side of the cage, and his side profile, which was illuminated by the light, was almost perfect. He looked naturally sensual and stunning, and he was exuding an inexplicable seductive aura.

His good looks were hard to come by!

“Oh, my God! Janet, is that a man or a woman? Why does he look like that?!” Lee nudged Janet’s shoulder.

She was staring indifferently at the man in the cage.

The man in the cage seemed to have noticed Janet among the crowd of hundreds of people. He looked over at her, and his thin lips parted. He spoke almost inaudibly, “Buy me!”

Janet got the message, and she mouthed coolly, “Give me a reason!”

The man’s sexy, thin lips parted again. “I’ll pay you double upon my release.”

Double? That’s interesting. It will be just in time to replenish the sum spent for today’s Bronze Ox Head.

The person in charge, President Jayden, suggested, “Ladies and gentlemen, feel free to have a look at the goods we have today and see if it may interest you.”

The bidders were intrigued by the sudden turn of events. It doesn’t matter if it’s a man or a woman; we’ll just have to buy the person. We can keep and enjoy it if it’s a woman; if it’s a man, we’ll just sell him off as a gigolo.

Everybody was slightly dumbfounded, and President Jayden spoke, “The bid starts at 1 million.”

1 million?

The man in the cage almost coughed up blood in frustration when he heard that. It seems like I’m not even worth the price of the Bronze Ox Head.

“1.5 million.”

The first bidder was an old man with a potbelly. He held up his placard while looking as though he was salivating.

“2 million.”

“3 million,” a hoarse and husky voice thundered. Janet looked in the direction of the voice, and she noticed that it belonged to a balding man.

She was rendered speechless when she saw that. Are men usually interested in other men too?

“5 million.” Janet held up her placard while smiling charmingly.

Lee cocked his brow, and his lips curled into a subtle smile. Is Janet interested in the beautiful man too?

“6 million.”

President Jayden was at a loss for words.

Oh, damn!

Janet and Lee exchanged a look, and they smiled. “6.5 million.”

I’m not being generous or that I’m adamant on having this man. I’m merely driven by the fact that I’d receive double the price if I were to procure him.

Mr. Potbelly held up his placard. “7 million.” Nevertheless, he seemed to have regretted the minute he made the bid. He mumbled to himself in frustration, “Damn it. I should have just abandoned the bid!”

Lee couldn’t endure it anymore, and so he leaned slightly toward Janet while asking her quietly, “Janet, how much do you have in your card?”

Janet lowered her eyes without revealing any emotions, and she replied calmly, “Not more than 10 million.”

Lee looked worried. “What should we do? You won’t be able to take this man away if the bid exceeds 10 million.”

Janet’s lips curled into a smirk. “Mr. Potbelly is such a pervert. I can’t believe he’s competing with me over a man! I want this man.”

Lee chuckled. “Alright.”

Just when Janet was about to raise her placard to make a bid of 8 million, a male voice rang loud out of nowhere.

The crowd was bewildered. Where did that voice come from?

Then, a group of bodyguards in black barged in to arrest President Jayden.

“What is happening?” President Jayden exclaimed in shock.

The group of men in black pried open the metal cage, and one of them kneeled down in front of the cage. “Young Master Mason, we were inefficient in protecting you. Please punish us, Young Master Mason,” exclaimed the bodyguard in black. President Jayden was scared witless when he heard that.

Who is Young Master Mason?

He is Mason Lowry from the most reputable family in Sandfort City, and he is the leader of the largest financial group in the country!

Generally, people addressed him as Young Master Mason, and he was only 25 years old. However, he possessed hundreds of millions worth of assets, and he owned businesses that were involved in countless different fields. He owned enterprises globally, and so he had the global economy within his grasp.

He stood up, and his lips curled lazily into a smile. Mason glanced at President Jayden casually while asking him, “President Jayden, did I do well?”
