Dauntless God Of War

Marilyn tugged at the hem of Harold's shirt when she heard what her father said, but Harold refused to let them off the hook so easily.

“Family? You had Marilyn, Evelyn, and their mother dine with the subordinates at the banquet the day before yesterday. Did you think of them as family when you invited the subordinates but not them?” Harold retorted while glaring coldly at Zyaire.

Zyaire's face turned red with embarrassment and awkwardness when he heard that.

“I...”

He had wanted to defend himself, but the words were stuck in his throat.

Everything Harold mentioned was true, so there was nothing Zyaire could say in retaliation.

Marilyn's other relatives in the Schmidt family, too, had guilty looks on their faces.

Harold then turned around and asked Quintus, “Hey, Quintus! Are you done calculating the cost of the paintings yet?”

That was when Quintus finally realized Harold was avenging Marilyn, Evelyn, and Jeslyn.

“Yes, Mr. Campbell. Lazaro's The Last Meal was worth three hundred million when I acquired it three years ago, but someone has been offering me one billion for it over the past two years, so let's set the price at one billion. As for the other two paintings, they cost one hundred and one hundred and thirty million and a little over fifty million, respectively. Their prices should have doubled up by now, so I'll consider three hundred million for those two. That gives us a grand total of one billion three hundred and sixty million!”

Quintus deliberately marked up the prices in order to help Harold out.

“Gambling King, since you're Marilyn's father, I'll go easy on you and give you a discount. You only need to pay one billion and three hundred million,” Harold said nonchalantly.

Zyaire nearly exploded with anger when he heard that.

Those three paintings are only worth five hundred million at most, but this b*stard raised the price up to one billion and three hundred million! Our company has suffered huge losses throughout the past few days after our stocks crashed, and now, we need to fork out over a billion... Our stocks are bound to drop even more if word gets out about this!

Everyone at the scene was shocked by Harold's demands and the prices of the paintings, but they didn't dare say a word because it was Quintus' collection.
