The Vengeful Son-in-law
Chapter 446

"Hiss..."

After three seconds of quietness, the scene erupted in a gush of recoiling breaths.

Almost everyone opened their eyes wide and looked at Tom in disbelief. They were obviouslyfrightened by the number that Tom bid.

One billion!

What was the concept of one billion? More than half of the people in the room did not earn abillion in a year!

Besides, this was only the second charity project, and there were a dozen more to come.

Was Tom crazy?!

In the first charity project just now, originally many people would have thought that the amountTom shouted out would be more than Bard, but it turned out that Tom had only donated 30 million.When it came to the second charity project, most people thought that Tom had already concededdefeat. They thought that the amount he would shout out would only be a few tens of millions atmost. However, they never expected that Tom would directly donate one billion.

That was too much!

Even the host was a little shocked now. He was stunned for a while, then he asked Tom, "Mr.Howard. Did you just say you wanted to donate a billion dollars?"

Everyone's eyes fell on Tom. Tom nodded faintly with a calm face. "Yes. Is there a problem?"

"No!" The host shook his head hurriedly. Now the way he looked at Tom was a little different.

That was a billion dollars! In all his years of hosting charity events, he had rarely seen anyone donateso much.

There was an old saying that was indeed true, "Nothing is good or bad but by comparison.”

When they heard Bard's donation of 200 million just now, they still felt shocked and thought thatBard was rich and generous. But now Bard was overshadowed by Tom's donation of one billion.Many people also thought that Bard was a bit stingy, having donated two hundred million for thefirst time and only 100 million for the second, which was no match for Tom's one billion.

Even Sean, who was also frowning, looked at Tom hatefully.

He was particularly displeased with Tom's smug look!

Bard gritted his teeth. What he had said to mock Tom just now turned into his own humiliation. Bardfelt rather uncomfortable.

More importantly, the way those people looked at him made him upset.

"Bard is a laughingstock of us now. He thought 300 million was a lot, and he had the nerve to mockTom. However, Tom slapped him heavily on the face.”

"That's right. Look at his facial expression.”

"Haha, I suddenly remembered the scene where he was scared to pee in his pants by Tom just now.""That's really funny.”

All these sounds fell on Bard's ears, making him so uncomfortable that his teeth clacked together.Tom didn't even look at him and continued to rest his eyes, not taking him into account at all, and itwas this disregard that made him even more uncomfortable.

He planned to beat Tom for the next charity project!

"Humph, damn Tom, I'll see how much you can do! Comparing your money with me? You're dead,I'll make you lose all your money!" Bard stared at Tom's direction and gritted his teeth.

He did not believe that Tom could compare with him in terms of financial resources.

This time, he was prepared to spend six billion dollars in order to obtain the status of charityambassador. No matter how much money, he must get the status. And, he had confidence inhimself.

As for Tom? He was just a clown.

He had already investigated Tom's assets, including the ZQ Media, TY Advertising, Shield SecurityCompany, and the amount of money Tom could mobilize was only three billion dollars. Comparedto him, Tom was completely in the hands of the mantis and overestimated himself!

Moreover, Tom had already squandered one billion dollars, leaving only two billion. He wanted Tomto donate all the three billion and lose all his money.

Having thought of this, Bard was much relieved with a cold smile.

"Challenge me? I'll make you pay for it.” Bard sneered, full of confidence.

Soon, the third charity project came. It was about building a disaster area. Many people realised thatthis was one of the highlights of tonight's charity gala, as building disaster areas is closely related tothe livelihood of the country.

For a moment, many people began to bid hard again.

"I donate 30 million!"

"I'll donate 50 million!"

"I donate 70 million!"

"I donate..."

This time, many big bosses who gave up fighting for the charity ambassador began to donateactively. The minimum amount was more than 30 million, and in a short time, more than 5 billiondollars had been collected.

After all, this charity project was about the livelihood of the country. Even if they couldn't grab acharity ambassador, they could still leave a good impression on the country. When the time came,they could hire their own media and publicise it in the community, and they would be able to gain alot of public support.

Ten minutes later, the rest of the people present donated, leaving Bard and Tom to donate. Bardrolled his eyes and stared at Tom, saying, "Tom, I wonder how much you want to donate this time?still one billion?"

His words were full of ridicule, and he did not believe that Tom could donate such a large sum.

As he said this, many people present were also looking at Tom, looking forward to how much Tomwould donate.

To be honest, even if Tom had just donated a billion dollars in one go and slapped Bard in the face,most people still didn't think that Tom could compete with Bard tonight. After all, the North SkyAssociation was too rich.

Tom smiled and said, "I'll donate two billion dollars.”

In an instant, the noisy scene began to quiet down again. Everyone was speechless again. Theyopened their eyes wide and looked at Tom in shock.

Oh my god, this was another two billion!

Tom was so rich. It wasn't two hundred million, nor was it twenty million, but two billion! Such alarge sum of money was enought to buy several companies.

Bard breathed faster with shock. Tom should have donated two billion dollars, which was reallyunexpected to him.

Wait a minute...

It suddenly occurred to him that the amount of money that Tom could use now was only threebillion dollars. Now that Tom had squandered it, and he would not be able to donate anymore.After confirming this, Bard smiled even more happily and said, "That is so like you, Mr. Howard. It'sonly three charity projects, and you have already donated three billion dollars. That's veryadmirable. However, I plan to donate three billion dollars, just a little more than you."

His words caused another uproar.

Bard was so pleased with himself, enjoying the crowd's awe, that he didn't notice Tom's meaningfulsmile.

Tonight he came to the charity gala with the intention of donating more. He had won 14.6 billion ina bet some time ago anyway, so he could spend it as he pleased.

He wondered what Bard's face would be when he donated a large sum of money and failed to winthe title of charity ambassador.

Now Tom was looking forward to it.
