The Fearsome Dragon Warrior

Chapter 143

"Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce this rare item before we start the bid!"

The lights dimmed just as she finished her sentence. A spotlight shone onto the auction table.

In the center of the table was a cloche bell jar. And in it was a jade gourd charm pendant the size of a child's palm.

The pendant was glossy emerald, and as the cloche jar rotated, the pendant shimmered and shone.

The auctioneer stared at the pendant as if mesmerized. She slowly started to introduce it, "Three hundred years ago, here in Paramount, a Kashyapan King gifted this pendant to his youngest and most treasured daughter on her third birthday. This gourd necklace symbolized all the love and well wishes he had for his beloved daughter…"

The room gradually started to rumble with ardent chatter as the auctioneer continued to speak.

Many of the politicians and businessmen who attended the auction that day had children. It was obvious to see that in a moment, there would be an intense bidding war.

On table No. 12, Jacob asked his daughter gently, "Do you like that gourd pendant? If you do, daddy will win the bid for you."


Heidi looked up at the auction table and blinked twice. She turned her attention to a plate of fresh looking fruits on their table and pointed at it. "I want to eat that."

"Okay. Daddy understands." He smiled warmly at her and reached for the glistening globes of grapes that his daughter was pointing at. "Do you want to eat these?"

"Yeah!" She took the grapes and grinned toothily at him.

Jonah eyed Jacob and thought exasperatedly. This is your daughter. Why didn't you bid for it? It's so hard for me to find a girlfriend!

"Boss, you're not going to bid for it?"

Jerry raised his eyebrows and asked. As he was watching, the bid for the gourd had risen to three hundred and fifty thousand.

"She's not interested in that. It's nothing in comparison to this bunch of grapes." Jacob chuckled and shook his head.

"Then don't mind if I do." Jerry reached for the paddle lying on the table. "I'll win it and give it to my little princess, Heidi!"

Heidi blinked and looked up at the mention of her name. Jerry raised the paddle and called out, "Five hundred thousand."

Five hundred thousand?

People sitting at the tables surrounding them looked over curiously at table twelve who had just increased the bidding price by hundred fifty thousand.

"Five hundred fifty thousand!" A muffled cry came from table three.
