"Oh, right…"
The stewardess appeared troubled, but since Frank said nothing, they had no choice but to pick up the shards around him, putting everything in a bag before giving it to him.
"Thank you." Frank thanked them.
The stewardesses were flustered, since they presumed Frank would be angry, only for him to thank them instead.
"Alright, I'm sure Mr. Lawrence has his own considerations, and it won't matter even if it's just shards." Travis quickly tried to make an excuse for Frank, considering the awkwardness.
The rock shattered in Frank's hands, after all—that was enough for him to defend himself if Frank pressed the issue.
Still, he had to be considerate for Frank, and he quickly presented the next item in his collection.
On the other hand, Frank was focused completely in his own body, completely uninterested in anything Travis had to show from that point on.
The skies were dark by the time Travis presented everything he had, with Hugh buying a vase of purest jade for 500 million dollars.
The other guests were impressed since that vase could be worth up to a billion, which was why Hugh was immensely pleased with himself.
In contrast, Frank did not make another bid after his five billion dollar rock shattered.
Still, he did point out signs of forgery in another two items, which Travis happily destroyed.
He had more than made up for his misfortunes with Frank's five billion anyway, covering both his losses today and his debt.
As such, he was plenty cheerful and hardly moping, even stopping Frank after the other guests left.
"I can't take blame for what happened, Mr. Lawrence, but I still feel guilty since you've come as a guest only to leave empty-handed."
Pulling him behind the folded screen, Travis passed Frank a palm-sized jade fox sculpture and said, "That's the relic I bought for three billion last week—I only saw the many flaws afterward, but I still think it's good value, worth around a couple hundred million. It's now my gift to you, to let things end on a cheerful note on our first meeting."
