Chapter 843 An Auction
At the entrance to the bidding block.
When Casey and two women got close to the entrance, one person immediately came to stop them
and said respectfully, "Sir, may I ask if you have the invitation to the auction?"
Casey shook his head.
That person didn''t show any impatience. Instead, he said patiently, "Sir, I''m sorry. But if a person
without an invitation wants to enter into the bidding block, we''ll have to verify his or her asset first. Only
people with assets that value at least 10 million dors are allowed toe in. May I ask if you want to
have verification of your assets?"
Casey directly took out his bank card, and said, "Yes, just do it."
Daring not dy at all, that people hurriedly took Casey into one room. Both Annabel and Elsa waited
outside the room.
Before long, Casey came out from the room. The people, who took Casey into the room, looked at
Casey as if Casey were made of gold and treated him in an extremely respectful manner.
"Sir, I''ve asked my colleague to arrange you the seat closest to the auction block. There, you can see
the very details of each lot clearly." That person spoke while looking at Casey.
Casey nodded. Then, he asked Annabel and Elsa to go into the bidding block with him.
The reason why they could receive such service was certainly that there was arge amount of money
in Casey''s bank card. That people had never seen so much money in his life. In his opinion, Casey had
enough money to buy all the lots at the auction today. When he was faced with such a guest, he would
certainly provide a great service to him.
They three entered into the bidding block. Led by a waiter, Casey, Annabel and Elsa sat down in the
seats that were closest to the auction block. Casey was new here. When people around found that he
sat in such a seat, they were all confused.
However, someone soon recognized the two women sitting beside Casey: One of them was the young
thought that they had figured out why Casey could sit in such a seat.
"I''m really envious of him. He should be able toe here with the youngdy of the Thompson family
and the youngdy of the Duncan family. How does he achieve that? I really want to ask him for advice
on how to pick up women."
"Humph, he''s but a toy boy who depends on women. It''s useless for him to sit in that seat. After all, he
can''t ask those two women to buy things for him. Even if he sits there, he can''t afford to buy any of
those lots. There''s no need to be envious of him."
"If he really wants to achieve sess by depending on those two youngdies, I''m afraid that he will
be disappointed. It''s never possible for those youngdies to get the assets of those two powerful
families. They can at most live a well-off life themselves. At such an auction, those youngdies won''t
have enough money to bid. If the young masters of those two familiese here, they might have
enough money to buy things."
"Maybe he just wants to know how it feels to sit at such a seat. I''ve seen too many such people."
...
Hearing theughter and remarks from people around, Annabel put on a look of disdain, and spoke,
"They''re all stupid. They defame others like that just because they''re envious of others. They''re just
richer than ordinary people. They''re the same kind of people in essence."
"When Casey bids for the lot, I''ll see if you will still say something like that."
Before long, Watkins also came to the bidding block. He sat next to Annabel.
He turned his head, looked at Annabel and Casey, and said with a smile, "What a coincidence! We all
Both Annabel and Casey turned their heads and looked at Watkins. Annabel frowned at once and said
with dislike on her face, "It''s too bad. I was previously happy. Now, a disagreeable person is sitting
beside me. I even want to sit in another seat."
After saying that, Annabel stood up and spoke to Casey who sat beside her, "Can I exchange the seats
with you? I want to sit next to Elsa."
Casey didn''t mind it. He swapped the seats with Annabel.
When Watkins saw that Casey sat beside him, he said with a smile, "It should be my younger sister
that makes it possible for you to sit in this seat, right? She''s really so silly that she helps you so much."
"I can understand that everyone wants to know how it feels to be superior to others, so I''m not going to
say anything about it. But I must make one thing clear. It''s I who am the heir of the Thompson family.
And I''ll get most of the property of the Thompson family. Annabel could only get a small share of it."
"If you take a fancy to a lotter, you can tell me. I''m willing to buy it for you on condition that you send
my younger sister back home. No matter how good at fighting you are, you''re not good enough to be
her husband. She''s destined to be married to the head of the Duncan family."
After hearing what Watkins said, Casey roughly understood what he meant. Watkins just came here to
make Casey lose face.
Judging from the way Watkins spoke, it could be seen that he considered Casey to be a poor man. In

his opinion, it was Annabel that made it possible for Casey to sit in the first row.
Casey shook his head with a smile. He thought: If Watkins really thought so, he would lose face again.
"Thank you for your kindness. However, if I take a fancy to something, I''ll buy it myself. I''m not going to
trouble you." Casey said with a smile.
Watkins sneered. He thought: This guy was really reckless. The lots today were very expensive. It
would take all the assets of a so-called rich person to buy the cheapest lot at the auction today. The
reason why Casey dared to say those words must be that he had no idea how valuable the lots were.
However, he didn''t bother to exin it to Casey. In his view, when the auction started, Casey would
know how ignorant he was.
Before long, the auction began.
Tonight, most of the lots were antiques. Besides, there were a few paintings.
As with other auctions, the lots sold at the beginning were things that were not very valuable when
At this auction, all the lots were priced in M Country dors. The lowest starting price was five million
dors. Every time a person bade, the increase in price should not be less than a hundred thousand
dors.
Not long after the auction began, Watkins had bought several antiques without hesitation, just as if he
were shopping in the mall.
Seeing that, people present were all surprised. At the same time, they were all very envious of Watkins.
As a member of the Thompson family, he thought nothing of that amount of money.
Every time Watkins bought an item, he would turn his head and look at Casey with a proud face. He
seemed to be showing off to Casey.
However, Casey was not affected at all.
Finally, it was time to sell the most valuable item in the auction. The staff workers pushed a trolley to
the auction block. On the trolley was a rectangr ss box. In the box was a well-made de. It
could be seen that it was a good weapon at a nce.
