The Peremptory Casey Davies -
Chapter 843 An Auction
At the entrance to the bidding block.
When Casey and two women got close to the entrance, one person immediately came to stop them and said respectfully, "Sir, may I ask if you have the invitation to the auction?" Casey shook his head.
That person didn't show any impatience. Instead, he said patiently, "Sir, I'm sorry. But if a person without an invitation wants to enter into the bidding block, we'll have to verify his or her asset first. Only people with assets that value at least 10 million dollars are allowed to come in. May I ask if you want to have verification of your assets?"
Casey directly took out his bank card, and said, "Yes, just do it."
Daring not delay at all, that people hurriedly took Casey into one room. Both Annabel and Elsa waited outside the room.
Before long, Casey came out from the room. The people, who took Casey into the room, looked at Casey as if Casey were made of gold and treated him in an extremely respectful manner.
"Sir, I've asked my colleague to arrange you the seat closest to the auction block. There, you can see the very details of each lot clearly." That person spoke while looking at Casey. Casey nodded. Then, he asked Annabel and Elsa to go into the bidding block with him.
The reason why they could receive such service was certainly that there was a large amount of money in Casey's bank card. That people had never seen so much money in his life. In his opinion, Casey had enough money to buy all the lots at the auction today. When he was faced with such a guest, he would certainly provide a great service to him.
They three entered into the bidding block. Led by a waiter, Casey, Annabel and Elsa sat down in the seats that were closest to the auction block. Casey was new here. When people around found that he sat in such a seat, they were all confused.
However, someone soon recognized the two women sitting beside Casey: One of them was the young lady of the Thompson family and the other was the young lady of the Duncan family. And then, they thought that they had figured out why Casey could sit in such a seat.
"I'm really envious of him. He should be able to come here with the young lady of the Thompson family and the young lady of the Duncan family. How does he achieve that? I really want to ask him for advice on how to pick up women."
"Humph, he's but a toy boy who depends on women. It's useless for him to sit in that seat. After all, he can't ask those two women to buy things for him. Even if he sits there, he can't afford to buy any of those lots. There's no need to be envious of him."
"If he really wants to achieve success by depending on those two young ladies, I'm afraid that he will be disappointed. It's never possible for those young ladies to get the assets of those two powerful families. They can at most live a well-off life themselves. At such an auction, those young ladies won't have enough money to bid. If the young masters of those two families come here, they might have enough money to buy things."
"Maybe he just wants to know how it feels to sit at such a seat. I've seen too many such people."
Hearing the laughter and remarks from people around, Annabel put on a look of disdain, and spoke, "They're all stupid. They defame others like that just because they're envious of others. They're just richer than ordinary people. They're the same kind of people in essence."
"When Casey bids for the lot, I'll see if you will still say something like that."
Before long, Watkins also came to the bidding block. He sat next to Annabel.
He turned his head, looked at Annabel and Casey, and said with a smile, "What a coincidence! We all come to participate in this auction."
Both Annabel and Casey turned their heads and looked at Watkins. Annabel frowned at once and said with dislike on her face, "It's too bad. I was previously happy. Now, a disagreeable person is sitting beside me. I even want to sit in another seat."
After saying that, Annabel stood up and spoke to Casey who sat beside her, "Can I exchange the seats with you? I want to sit next to Elsa."
Casey didn't mind it. He swapped the seats with Annabel.
When Watkins saw that Casey sat beside him, he said with a smile, "It should be my younger sister that makes it possible for you to sit in this seat, right? She's really so silly that she helps you so much." "I can understand that everyone wants to know how it feels to be superior to others, so I'm not going to say anything about it. But I must make one thing clear. It's I who am the heir of the Thompson family. And I'll get most of the property of the Thompson family. Annabel could only get a small share of it."
"If you take a fancy to a lot later, you can tell me. I'm willing to buy it for you on condition that you send my younger sister back home. No matter how good at fighting you are, you're not good enough to be her husband. She's destined to be married to the head of the Duncan family."
After hearing what Watkins said, Casey roughly understood what he meant. Watkins just came here to make Casey lose face.
Judging from the way Watkins spoke, it could be seen that he considered Casey to be a poor man. In his opinion, it was Annabel that made it possible for Casey to sit in the first row.
Casey shook his head with a smile. He thought: If Watkins really thought so, he would lose face again.
"Thank you for your kindness. However, if I take a fancy to something, I'll buy it myself. I'm not going to trouble you." Casey said with a smile.
Watkins sneered. He thought: This guy was really reckless. The lots today were very expensive. It would take all the assets of a so-called rich person to buy the cheapest lot at the auction today. The reason why Casey dared to say those words must be that he had no idea how valuable the lots were.
However, he didn't bother to explain it to Casey. In his view, when the auction started, Casey would know how ignorant he was.
Before long, the auction began.
Tonight, most of the lots were antiques. Besides, there were a few paintings.
As with other auctions, the lots sold at the beginning were things that were not very valuable when compared with other items. However, the starting price of these lots was still very high.
At this auction, all the lots were priced in M Country dollars. The lowest starting price was five million dollars. Every time a person bade, the increase in price should not be less than a hundred thousand dollars Not long after the auction began, Watkins had bought several antiques without hesitation, just as if he were shopping in the mall.
Seeing that, people present were all surprised. At the same time, they were all very envious of Watkins. As a member of the Thompson family, he thought nothing of that amount of money.
Every time Watkins bought an item, he would turn his head and look at Casey with a proud face. He seemed to be showing off to Casey.
However, Casey was not affected at all.
Finally, it was time to sell the most valuable item in the auction. The staff workers pushed a trolley to the auction block. On the trolley was a rectangular glass box. In the box was a well-made blade. It could be seen that it was a good weapon at a glance.
