Get you in my arms

Chapter 140 You Follow Who You Married (Part One)

After taking a pause, Tina continued, "In recent years, he has also been involved in arms transactions with the Middle East secretly."

Lucas nodded slightly with his eyes deepened.

On the other side, Sophia was totally unaware of the situation. She is excitedly waiting for the first piece of antiques to be shot.

Lucas was interested in a plum bottle with blue flowers, white flowers and fruit tattoos on it, which was auctioned at the base price of five million.

"Ten million."

"Fifteen million."

"Thirty million."

"Fifty million."

The Treasury were bidding one after another.

When he finally hammer his fists again, Lucas winked at Tina. Tina raised her paddle and said, "One hundred million."

Silence fell on the venue. No one bid anymore.

The auctioneer knocked the hammer twice in a row. When it was about to be done, someone said in a low voice, "200 million."

Taken aback, Sophia turned around to see the man who raised his card, it was Rossi. The mantis catches the cicada. When everyone's about to fight, he'll take a surprise and put it in his pocket. Lucas,

who had been silent all the time, had thought about that. He knocked lightly on his leg. Tina understood what he meant. "Three hundred million."

Then Rossi said, "Four hundred million."

"Five hundred million."

"Six hundred millions."

"800 million!" Without showing weakness, Rossi realized that the situation Lucas was to wrestle with him to the end. It seemed that he knew clearly what kind of people Lucas was. He had a special affection for the cyan and white flowers in ancient times, no matter how much money he spent. And this time, the rarity and precious palace property he exhibited were even more rare. He predicted that Lucas would definitely take it over from him by any means.

Sure enough, Tina raised her paddle again. "One billion."

A cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "One billion and two hundred million," he said

Hearing that, Tina took a look at Lucas and waited for his order. Then he nodded slightly. As a collector of Blue and White Porcelain of Yuan Dynasty, he knew the value of the yellow flower shaped fruit box with green flowers on its shoulders was at most eight hundred million dollars, but it was far more valuable than the original value of the original one. However, if the person wanted to play the game with him, he had to play it until the end.

"One billion and five hundred million!" Tina moved three more levels in one go.

The corner of Rossi's mouth trembled slightly, and he seemed to be a little hesitant. He turned his head and looked at Lucas. When he saw the triumphant smile on his face, his eyebrows flashed a color of red. He said, "One billion and six hundred million." He gritted his teeth.

There was a mocking smile in Lucas's heart, but on his face there was another expression. He was a little angry, frustrated, and even frustrated. It turned out that he could also be a best actor.

Rossi saw his expression and the small smile on Lucas's face could not be concealed.

Silence befell the hall. The auctioneer tapped on his hammer again and again.

"One billion and six hundred million once, One billion and six hundred million twice, One billion and six hundred million times. The deal is made now."

With his hand on his forehead, Rossi gently waved his hand and made a gesture for Lucas to show his modesty. Lucas smiled. The game just started. He held Sophia's hand and said, "Tell me whatever you like and I'll buy it for you no matter how much it is." With a low, deep voice, Sophia turned her head to look at him. There was a sly light flashing in his eyes, and he smiled slightly. She immediately understood what he meant. She smiled softly and said, "This is what you said. I must get the queen Necklace later. No matter how much you cost!" Although it was just a few words between the husband and wife, it smoothly floated to the other side of the corridor, with an insidious smile on the corner of Rossi's mouth.

Next came the diamond necklace worn by the Queen Victoria. It was inlaid with 120 supreme pink diamonds, and the center of the necklace weighed 120 carats. It had been one of the biggest pink diamonds so far.

Mrs. Mo was gazing at the diamond necklace. Her dark eyes were glittering in the light. She looked so longing as if she was eager to pounce on the necklace and take it as her own.

Women were always irresistible to the charm of diamonds.

Seeing that, Rossi shook his head with a sneer.

The Queen's diamond necklace started at 2 million yuan. The bidding rose to 10 million yuan in a moment.

"Fifteen million." Tina raised her card at the suggestion of Lucas.

"Twenty million." Said Rossi slowly.

"Thirty million." Tina unhurriedly answered.

"Forty million." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"Fifty million."

The auction house had become a battlefield for Rossi and Lucas. The price eventually went up to one hundred million.

Tina fell silent. Lucas gave his wife a helpless expression, hinting her to give up the plan. Mrs. Mo stamped her feet and took over the bidding card from Tina with an angry look. "200 million!"

When the tender voice came out, the guests looked at each other and took a deep breath. It turned out that the first lady of Q City was a unscrupulous black sheep!

Seeing that Rossi's face was pale and he was silent for a long time, Sophia coughed intentionally to arouse his attention. He turned his head and saw that Sophia gave him a thumbs up. Then she turned her fist and the thumb fell down, which blew out a word, "Suck!"

A flame of fury was flaring up in Rossi's chest and his face was as red as a tomato. He was a man and yet another woman was disdaining him!

With a tremble of his finger, he almost unconsciously raised the card. "Three hundred millions!"

At this time, Lucas grabbed the bidding card from his wife's hand. He seemed to be afraid that his wife would act on impulse and make him lose everything. Mrs. Mo was stunned. She looked at her husband with tearful eyes and kept pulling his arm. A certain look on his face, Lucas completely ignored her. Mrs. Mo bit her lips, stamped her feet, and suddenly turned her head. She glared at Rossi as fiercely as a sword, as if she wanted to pierce through his heart.

With a complacent look on his face, Rossi raised his hand and stroked his belly, as if telling her not to be angry to hurt the babies in her belly.

Sophia made a gesture of cutting the throat to remind him to be careful!

However, Lucas and Rossi showed no interest in the following items. Neither of them bid for anything.

Tonight's last auction is one of the most moving works of art, the oil painting "Adela" by Austrian expressionist painter Klimt.

Two points of starlight flashed in Rossi's eyes. He looked at Lucas, who was expressionless and looked uninterested. Mrs. Mo was even pursing her lips and muttering. "There's only one useless painting left. It's really boring."

Rossi laughed at them. The oil painting of this talented painter was really the main character and goal in his heart tonight.

The auction started. The starting price was 1 million.

The bidding began.

It was said that a French oil painting displayed the price of eighty million.

Silence befell the hall.

It seemed that no one was willing to or had the strength to bid a higher price. Rossi slowly raised the sign, "One hundred million." There was a look of triumph on his face.
