Chapter 910 Indignity
Maximilian smiled, and plainly said to Clark, "It is quite a nice looking herb, isn't it, our
distinguished Clark?"
"It's none of your business, and I prefer to have this weird looking herb lying in my display cabinet until
it was rotted rather than seeing it falling into the hands of someone else." Clark grinned and answered.
There was one thing clear enough to Maximilian: Clark's target was not at the herb so-called Hardy
Ganoderma — all he wanted here was to show off his power to Maximilian and insult
him. Maximilianwas absolutely not going to kneel down to his challenge, and now he chose to add
another one million dollars to the auction price.
"You're just not going to give it up, aren't you, little piece of shit?? So be it, I'm adding another one
million dollars as well!" Sneered Rowen.
Maximilian, sneakingly lifted the right corner of his mouth and pretending to sigh, said in a pitiful tone, Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Fine, if you want that junk, then take it."
The sudden announcement stunned Clark, and the smiling face of Maximilian made him increasingly
unpleasant.
Those fellows around Clark, seeing that, began to persuade, "Clark, that son of bitch is just playing
tricks on you, intending to induce you to spend unnecessary money on that stupid Hardy Ganoderma!"
"Yes, quit now and do not fall into his trap, Clark!"
People around were all thinking that such a little herb could never cost such a great deal of money,
urging Clark to give up the auction.
Hearing the voices of the others, Clark was shaken. He then hesitated for a while and turned to the
lady on the stage, "Excuse me, lady there, I'm giving up this stupid game."
The lady then nodded and turned to Maximilian, "Mr. Lee, the extra money you need to pay for Hardy
Ganoderma is eight million dollars. Are you sure that you're going to pay for it?"
Clark grinned and looked at Maximilian, imagining what kind of embarrassing response would be given
by Maximilian. However, what out of he had expected was that Maximilian nodded his head and said
yes with least hesitation, "Of course I am! I'm going to buy that no matter if it is eight million or eighty
million dollars."
It was not until the voice of Maximilian faded that Clark realized that he had been put on the hook by
Maximilian. He glared at Maximilian and scratched his head, regretting his impulsive decision.
"That's cheating! I require a restart of the auction!" Clark shouted.
While it seemed that this time there was no more chance for him. The chairman of the auction stepped
forward and said seriously, "I'm sorry, but I need to ask you to stop now, Clark. We have rules here, and
hope we could earn your understanding on this matter." At the beginning, it was a great concession for
the chairman to restart the auction for Clark, and anymore of that would be a break of rules and
disturbances of order to this auction. What's more, there was no time for him allowing the two to keep
arguing and competing for Hardy Ganoderma unceasingly, since a great deal of items were still waiting
to be auctioned at the following.
Luckily, though the flame caused by losing the auction was still burning inside of him, Clark calmed
himself down at last, went back and took his seat in the first row. Soon, all those well-off rich men and
beautiful young ladies went and surrounded him, hopping to establish relationships with this man from
Dragon Sect.
After a few more rounds of auction, Maximilian got tired of everything, stood up and slowly walked
towards the exit of the hall.
Clark's eyesight was at the same time fixed on the figure of Maximilian. He then stood up too and
followed behind sneakingly, while didn't realized that Maximilian had already noticed it.
Back to the side of Connor, he was also getting tired listening to the introduction of the items that
interested him not, standing up and about to leave. At this moment, Rowen stopped him and said,
"Wait, Boss Davies, it's time to talk about the business that I have mentioned. As I said, I came here for
business today, and the partner of mine is exactly Clark. I'm wondering whether you're interested in it
or not?"
Connor was shaken when he heard the name of Clark. While a second thought came to him and told
him that if he accepted this proposal, it would become an obligation of him to stand against Maximilian,
a man who had once helped him.
"Thanks for your offer, Rowen. While my answer is no." Connor waved his hand and said no
immediately.
Obviously, Rowen was not going to give up so easily, "Come on, Boss Davies! I know you're a man
who would never give up such an opportunity which could establish a relationship between you and the
Dragon Sect!"
Connor, smiling but not going to speak anything, thought that Rowen was such a narrow-minded and
self-righteous man. "Sorry, but the answer of mine would still be the same. I would stand on the side of
Mr. Lee."
Hearing the words of Connor, Rowen was stunned that Connor would refuse the proposal of
cooperating with Clark and make clear that he was one of the most solid supporters of Maximilian. He
then messaged Clark and told him everything about that.
