The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 845

A sudden silence fell.

People present all suspected that they had misheard. For a moment, they didn't believe that Casey really increased the price to a hundred million M Country dollars.

The host was also shocked. As a result, he didn't ask if there was anyone who still wanted to bid for a long time.

"A...A hundred million M Country dollars. This gentleman bade a hundred million M Country dollars for this blade. Is there anyone that still wants to bid?" After realizing what was going on, the host took a deep breath and shouted in a trembling voice.

A hundred million M Country dollars was completely more than what they had estimated. The blade would be sold at a premium.

"A hundred million M Country dollars? Is he serious? Is a blade worth so much money?"

"Why do I feel that this guy just wants to bid against Mr. Watkins? Dose he increase the price to so high on purpose?"

"Could it be that this guy doesn't really want to buy the blade and that he is just trying to raise the price of the blade to deal for the purpose of dealing with Mr. Watkins?"

"If he's just trying to raise the price, he shouldn't do this. If Mr. Watkins doesn't bid, he will suffer a great loss."

...

Watkins was staring at Casey in disbelief. Then, he got angry. In his opinion, Casey was fooling him.

"Are you out of your mind? Do you know what a hundred million M Country dollars means?" Watkins shouted at Casey.

Casey smiled at him and spoke, "Why? Could it be that you dare not to bid now?"

Watkins hesitated for a moment. The Thompson family was rich, and a hundred million M Country dollars was just nothing for them. However, the property of the Thompson family was still under the control of Lowell. And Watkins just had only one tenth of the total assets of the Thompson family.

He could afford to pay a hundred million M Country dollars. However, if Lowell knew that he spent a hundred million M Country dollars on buying a useless blade, he could break his legs.

Watkins was very unwilling to lose to Casey now. However, after careful consideration, he didn't bid. If Casey was really just raising the price to deal with him, he would be fooled by Casey after he continued to bid.

"Humph, I know what you're thinking. You just want me to buy this blade at a high price, right? But I won't be fooled by you. I'll give up on this blade. You can just buy it."

"I have to remind you of one thing. There is a stipulation this time. If you bid at random and fail to pay for it, you'll be killed."

Watkins spoke to Casey in a malicious manner. In his opinion, Casey was just acting and he couldn't afford to pay for it at all.

Casey was not scared at all. He shrugged and said, "It's just a hundred million M Country dollars. I'm not poor and I can afford to pay for it."

Watkins thought that Casey was taunting him. He was boiling with rage. Therefore, he raised his sign and shouted, "A hundred...and one million M Country dollars!"

As the young master of the Thompson family, he couldn't stand being despised by others. Therefore, even just for the sake of his face, he must bid against Casey.

However, considering that he might really have to buy the blade, he didn't increase by too much money.
