Chapter 3

"You little bastard, why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror? Do you think you are worthy of Mrs. Vanderbilt?"

As soon as the assistant finished speaking, Victoria immediately echoed:

"Parker is absolutely right!"

"If my dad hadn't forced me to go on a blind date, I wouldn't even bother looking at a loser like you!"

I smiled and narrowed my eyes, staring at her intently.

"Since Mrs. Vanderbilt has said so much, let's just call it quits, okay?"

I wanted to be more gentlemanly, but this self-righteous young lady in front of me seemed to have misunderstood what I meant.

"Tell me how much money you want."

I waved my hand nonchalantly.

"No need for money, I think it's dirty."

The moment I turned around, Parker suddenly yelled at me.

"Stop right there, you little bastard!"

I paused and slowly turned around.

"What? Parker still plans to keep me for dinner?"

He gave me a sinister smile and whispered something into Victoria's ear.

The next second, the daughter of the richest man in Metropolis City was furious.

"Mr. Stone, how dare you snatch something from me?"

From the assistant's expression, I roughly guessed that he must have said a lot of bad things about me in front of Mrs. Vanderbilt.

Judging from Victoria's attitude towards me just now, I knew that it would be useless to explain any more, so I simply didn't bother to waste my breath.

"Yes, I do like that necklace, so what?"

Victoria didn't seem to expect that I would dare to admit it to her face, and her eyes were a little surprised.

"Okay, okay, today I will let you know the consequences of offending the Vanderbilt Family!"

After saying that, she raised the sign in her hand without hesitation.

“Light the sky lantern!”

As soon as the words fell, the host immediately raised the microphone and shouted to the audience:

"The starting price for this collection is 10 million. Is there anyone bidding higher?"

Anyone who has participated in an auction knows that once you light a sky lantern, there is no turning back: either stick with it to the end or declare bankruptcy.

Since the Vanderbilt Family is willing to bet the entire family for a small assistant, I might as well play with her.

"Ten million, right? I'll follow!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar at the scene.

I could tell from everyone's facial expressions that most of them were waiting to laugh at me.

After all, no one present knew my true identity.

"You little brat, do you even know how much 10 million is? How dare you follow me?"

"This is an auction, not the vegetable market downstairs from your house."

When assistant Parker saw me confronting his boss, he looked gloating.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you can't come up with the money by then, you'll go to jail!"

I looked up and smiled at him.

"Parker, you don't need to worry about whether I have money or not. I advise you to pay more attention to your boss."

"There is no turning back from this kind of sky lantern-lighting game."

After hearing what I said, Mrs. Vanderbilt snorted and raised the sign in her hand again.

"It's only 10 million. My dad gives me more than that in pocket money every month!"

As she said this, she turned and looked at me, her eyes full of provocation.

"Don't you like to follow me? Today I want to see if you have the strength to go against the Vanderbilt Family!"

"I'll add another 10 million, a total of 20 million!"

Following Mrs. Victoria's roar, the whole place suddenly exploded.

You have to know that today is just a charity auction. Although the items on site are not bad, they are far from reaching the tens of millions level.
