The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 149

Adam had led a very miserable life for the past few days. 3

After getting into trouble a few days ago, he had been severely beaten up by his second uncle. Moreover, his uncle also banned him from leaving the house, 2

However, due to his extreme love for antiques, it was impossible for him to miss out on this auction. 2

Therefore, he tried his best to escape the house before he participated in the auction today. However, he did not expect to see Charlie here today. 4

He had always been very disdainful and doubtful of Charlie's skills. In his opinion, his second uncle had been completely deceived by this young man. 1

However, he did not dare to provoke Charlie face to face. When he saw Charlie making a bid for the pearl necklace, he made a bid immediately because he wanted to challenge Charlie. 3

At this time, Charlie glanced at Adam before he turned around and faced the auctioneer again. After that, he continued his bid. "Seven hundred thousand dollars!" 1

Adam followed in his footsteps. "Eight hundred thousand dollars!" 1

Jacob could no longer sit still. Therefore, he stood up before he told Charlie, "Charlie, forget it. There's no

point in fighting him." 2

Charlie simply smiled before he said, "Just look at how I am going to play with him."

After that, Charlie raised his hand directly and said," Eight million dollars!"

Everyone in the auction hall was dumbfounded at this time.

The other party was bidding for eight hundred thousand dollars and he had actually bid for the necklace at eight million dollars? Was he insane?

At this time, Adam was also dumbfounded because Charlie was not playing by the rules. Since his bid was eight hundred thousand dollars, the other party would usually call for nine hundred thousand dollars or one million dollars at most. Why would he bid eight million dollars on the pearl necklace? 5

Was he really insane or did he have too much money t 0 burn?

Charlie raised his brows as he smiled at Adam. "Mr. Quinton, please go on!"

Adam coughed before he said, "Do you think I'm crazy? Why would I buy this useless pearl necklace for eight million dollars? Forget it! You can have it." 5

Even though Adam did not want to lose face, he was very unwilling to pay eight million dollars for the pearl necklace. 2

The value of the pearl necklace was seven hundred dollars at most. If he really spent more than eight million dollars just to buy the pearl necklace, his second uncle would definitely break his legs when he went home! 12

It was a complete waste of money! 2

Charlie stared at Adam as he said disdainfully, "Mr. Quinton, you are giving up so soon? You look like you can't afford it."

Everyone started laughing as soon as Charlie's words fell.

Adam blushed as he replied, "You're so irritating! Who says that I can’t afford the pearl necklace? I’m just not stupid enough to pay eight million dollars for this useless necklace. I’m really interested to see where you are going to get the money to pay for the necklace!"

Charlie smirked before he replied, "If you can't afford i t, just admit it. What is the point of such lengthy explanations right now?"
