Alex’s calm response to David’s crazed outburst caused the audience to gossip among themselves. A few bidders even snickered when they saw how David blew his top.
Gritting his teeth, David spat, “You’ve got some nerve, Alex! Fine, I’m raising the price to ninety million!”
David’s new bid caused Callum to panic. He implored as he tugged on David’s sleeve, “Mr. Zucker, ninety million is too expensive for a herb like this! He’s just trying to provoke you. Don’t fall for it!”
Ninety million for a single stalk of snapdragon? Except for ancient or legendary herbs, no ancient medicine is worth such a hefty price.
Although David was rolling in dough, he didn’t like to flaunt his wealth. If this had been several years back, it would be impossible for David to splurge ninety million on a single stalk of herb.
Nevertheless, David was determined to cure his condition.
Although countless days had passed, David was yet to recover any sensation in his private areas. If this continued, he would lose all hope.
Hence, he was determined to secure this chance. I’ll fork out ninety million, and not a single cent more!
In response, Alex raised his paddle. “I’m raising my bid to one hundred million,” he announced.
David stiffened when he heard Alex’s bid. “You piece of trash, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to disrupt my plans?” he bellowed in anger.
“I’ve had my eyes on this snapdragon for a long time. It’s only natural that I bid to obtain it. What’s the matter? Can’t I bid for it too? Just because you’ve had your sights set on it doesn’t mean that it’s off-limits,” Alex replied with a smile.
“Do you take me for a fool? I know everything about your background,” David sneered in contempt. “You are nothing more but a live-in son-in-law who lives off a woman. The Jenningses are in severe debt. I’m sure you can’t even afford a single million. How are you going to pay for this snapdragon?”
David whirled around to look at the auctioneer. “It’d be best if you take my advice and kick this man out. He’s bluffing! It will be impossible for him to pay the price.”
A frown graced Tyrael’s forehead as he said, “All of Mr. Jefferson’s expenses will be recorded under my name. I am more than capable of paying for this.”
“Mr. Jefferson also has unlimited access to the funds of the Jones family,” Stefan added hastily,
Their words caused everyone to gasp in shock.
Who exactly is this man? I can’t believe Dr. Skyworth, the divine physician, and Stefan, the head of the Jones family, are willing to pay for him. One hundred million is at stake here!
Right then, Alex pulled out the ATM card from his pocket. “It’s just one hundred million; I can afford it without any help. I even came prepared.”
The sight of Alex’s ATM card caused David to sneer in disdain.

While there is no denying Alex’s skill as a fighter, being a proficient fighter doesn’t mean that he has millions at his disposal. Although I am the heir of the famous Zucker family, one hundred million is not a small sum. How can that piece of trash afford it?
