“You…you…” Desmond could only stammer as his temper got the better of him. “You b*stard! How dare you steal my family’s money! I’m going to murder you someday!”

Damian turned around to look at Desmond. “Do you know him, Mr. Jones?”

Desmond huffed. “He’s just a live–in son–in–law that leeches off his wife. He manipulated my uncle into giving him access to my family’s money!” –

“Oh, is that so?” Damian asked, raising his eyebrows and putting his gentlemanly mask back on. “Well, boy, my advice to you would be to know your limits. Are you sure you have a hundred million at your disposal?”

Alex scoffed. “That’s none of your business. Stay if you want to keep bidding, and leave if you’re giving up!”

Damian’s mask shattered into pieces the moment he heard that. “You’re asking for trouble, boy!”

Alex chuckled loudly. “Me? Asking for trouble? Can’t you just admit that you’re too poor for this?”

Alex’s unrelenting insults wore away the last of Damian’s patience. With an ugly scowl, he growled, “Stop it! You’d better give the bone to me or else!”

Fabian began to panic. He’s going to trash this place if this goes on!

He was desperate to end the conflict, but the last thing he wanted was to annoy Damian. Left with no choice, he could only look on helplessly.

Alex smiled. “Can’t you at least wait till the auction’s over? My current bid is a hundred million, so what’s yours?”

Maggie stared at him in utter confusion, knowing that even a family as powerful as the Grants would not stand a chance against the Mountain of the Beasts.

What the hell is he trying to accomplish? Why is he being so confident?

Damian continued to glare at Alex as his cheeks burned painfully, as though he had just been slapped across the face by Alex.

–

Despite the shame, he had to admit that Alex was right – they had rules to follow.

A hundred million…

How is that even possible?

Everyone kept their eyes glued to Damian as they waited for his reaction with bated breaths.

Damian was turning red from both embarrassment and irritation, but he forced himself to calm down as he said in a low voice, “My apologies for the misunderstanding, my friend. I hope you can forgive me.”

Just as he was about to say something else, the young lady next to him suddenly sat up and gave Alex a murderous glare.

Damian turned to look at Lexa, slightly shocked by her sudden outburst.

“Mr. Kline, he’s the one who messed up our mentor’s spells and put our senior into a coma!” she whispered.

“So…it was him!”

Damian sneered and ceased his bidding.

The last thing he had expected was for a live–in son–in–law to be the person he came to kill.

If that’s the case, then there’s no point in competing with him!

Whether he likes it or not, the bone will belong to me after he dies!

“Boy, I certainly hope you can live long enough to use the mana within the bone after you buy it.” Damian scoffed. “Let’s go, Lexa.”

With that, the two of them took their leave.
