The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor
Chapter 162

"Good lord, I didn't mishear, right? From 200 million jumping to 300 million, that's a little too insane now, isn't it?"

"That wouldn't be a mistake, right? Even if she's just adding a hundred million without hesitation, it's still a hundred million bucks. Even if it's a first-class aristocratic family doing so, they would still have to seriously consider spending that much money!"

"Yeah, maybe 210 million bucks is enough to win the bid? Wouldn't saving 90 million bucks be a good thing?"

Plenty of wealthy merchants and second-class aristocratic families were completely shocked by what had happened.

Of course, the Roy family, the Four Major Families, and Timothy who had not even made an offer yet, were also startled by the current outcome.

What was even more unexpected to them was that the person who made the bid was none other than Fane.

"Fane, are you sure it's 300 million bucks? Have you asked the person beside you? You wouldn't just be randomly calling out numbers now, would you? If you call out a bid and actually win it later, you won't be able to escape if you can't pay up!" Michael told Fane while pointing at him. He was incredibly furious in

his heart as he had already stood up with his hand raised, about to call out another bid. After the stunt Fane had pulled however, he felt very humiliated.

"That's right, brat. Don't just randomly call out numbers! Or else, don't even think about leaving this place!"

Timothy was also incredibly furious. The 200 million offer he made was already an astronomical amount but with Fane's 300 million bucks offer, this felt like a blatant insult to him.

Fane shrugged his shoulders as he responded. "Yeah, I did. I wasn't just yelling random numbers!"

Upon noticing all the shocked and surprised expressions from everyone, Lana found the situation quite hilarious as she calmly nodded her head and said, "Yeah, I agreed to it. Don't worry, money isn't a problem!"

Everyone was speechless. They found the woman's identity even more mysterious since there were actually very few wealthy ladies who could so casually fork out 300 million bucks.

"320 milion!"

After giving it some thought, Timothy actually stood up and raised the price.

Plenty of people gasped as they did not expect anyone else to attempt to fight for it still when it had already reached 300 million bucks. This single luminous pearl was quite the hot sale now.

However, everyone calmed down when they thought about how massive the Drake family business was. 300 million bucks would make plenty of second-class aristocratic families feel immensely pressured as the pearl's effectiveness to extend a person's lifespan was still unclear.

There would be an enormous difference between the current bid price and the pearl's actual base price if this was merely being used as a sleeping aid.

However, a price tag like this was absolutely no problem for the Drake family.

"320 million!"

After gritting his teeth, the master of the Roy family, Robert, made another offer. "350 million!"

Unexpectedly, Rue actually stood up at this moment, raising the bid once again.

Michael was a little displeased. If he spent 300 million, his father would lecture him without a doubt as the company funds were a little tight at the moment.

However, he thought about how he would be using this pearl to win Selena's heart and besides that, if he could win the bid, it would prove the Wilson family's strength and make them proud.

He hardened his heart and said, "360 million!"

"400 million!" Fane actually raised his hand and yelled out.

"You..."

Michael was beyond furious as he somehow felt Fane seemed to be intentionally targeting him by adding so much money on a whim.

"420 million!!"
