On the other hand, Trevor believed that the huge rock might have something special in it if Frank thought so highly of it.
"Mr. Lawrence, the stalactite…" he asked tentatively just in case.
He knew for a fact that Frank had several such stalactites in his own mansion in Skywater Bay. Even if those stalactites were not as old as this one, there was no reason this particular one delighted Frank so much.
"We must have it!" Frank's reply was simple and determined.
Naturally, Sif could see that nearby.
"Yes, sir!" Trevor had no reason to refuse, seeing how determined Frank was.
In fact, he would bankrupt himself buying that rock just because Frank said so!
Meanwhile, Jenny was smiling as she introduced, "My father's friend happened to find this milk-white stalactite while exploring a cave. It's a rare thousand-year-old stone, though we've never looked inside. The starting bid is ten million, and subsequent bids must be over a million."
Though Jenny's introduction was simple, the bidders knew that the milk-white stalactite was more than what it seemed, and the air in the auction hall became charged right then.
"20 million!"
"25 million!"
"30 million!"
Though the wealthy bidders began to compete, they weren't actually interested in the stone itself, but what it contained within.
After withstanding the wear and tear of a thousand years, what lay within would definitely be special.
It was obvious everyone was ready to take a gamble, and even the auctioneer was brave enough to set the starting bid at a hundred million.
