Semua Bab Oops, I've Been Exposed: Bab 451 - Bab 460

The auctioneer was expecting a fervent wave of bids after such an enthusiastic introduction. However, he got the opposite response. Everyone listened to the introduction with great interest, but no one raised their paddle. This made things a little awkward."The golden tongue is an artifact placed in the mouth of a deceased during burial," Lionel explained as if he were an expert."The ancient people thought that the gods spoke a different language and that by burying the dead with a golden tongue, they would be able to converse with the gods in the afterlife."Although it is meaningful, it was only meant for the deceased. On the contrary, for the living, it's not so… I guess everyone knows what I mean, right?"To many people, owning something that belonged to the dead was quite a taboo. And although the auctioneer mentioned that it was unearthed in the last century, nobody could be sure that he was telling the truth. While cruise auctions could save a lot of hassle and weren

Woody whispered, "With this, I'm confident that Ginger can ascend to the Master Level before the age of 20."Upon hearing this, Gerald was shocked, and Ginger was exhilarated. Just a few days ago, she was bed-ridden and severely ill!From Gerald's perspective, he didn't care too much about how much Ginger could achieve in her training. All he wanted for her was to live a safe and happy life. And given the Whitlocks' financial power, this would be no feat. But if Ginger could have extraordinary achievements in martial arts, it would be delightful news to Gerald as well. And once Ginger had self-defense skills, he could leave the family to her with peace of mind.However, Ginger's unexpected illness had caught him by surprise. And in order to treat her illness, he was even willing to offer the top treasures in his treasure vault. He'd reckoned that his offer of such a valued reward would attract more brave men and talented doctors.As long as Ginger could be treated, he would

David was a wealthy and esteemed guest, after all. Hence, receiving him with politeness was the most basic requirement.David waved his hand and loudly ordered, "Bring it over!"Then, a man dressed in black and wearing sunnies walked over with a delicate gift box. "Mr. David, this is it."After opening the gift box, David retrieved a dark green colored bead from within and presented it to Mabel and everyone else. "Ms. Swenson, I suppose you are familiar with this, aren't you?"Mabel's brows furrowed together slightly, and she said, "This should be the Cosmic Night Pearl you bought two years ago when you first participated in the cruise ship auction. "If my memory serves me right, you finally won the bid after more than a dozen rounds of bidding. "Is there a problem with it?"Sniggering, David said, "It makes things easier since you admit that this came from your auction fair. Back then, this item cost me 30 million dollars."Upon hearing this, everyone looked flabbergasted.

"Mr. George, what do you mean?" Lionel's face turned solemn. "You may have been the one who invited us, but that doesn't mean that we have to play according to your rules. "You can't change our principles, professionalism, nor the sense of justice we were born with."Before Theo could rebut, David interjected loudly, "Gentlemen, why don't you work for me instead? I'll double the price whatever Mr. George is paying you. "Of course, I know you're not avaricious people. But the main thing is that Mr. George is a fool who isn't worthy of your expertise.""David Goldblum, you've crossed the line!" Theo snapped.At the next second, Macarius went to David's side and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Goldblum. We're more than happy to work for you."Lionel quickly added, "Mr. Davis is right. I'm at your service, Mr. Goldblum."Everyone was taken aback at how quickly Macarius and Lionel had betrayed Theo.In truth, Macarius and Lionel had been in cahoots with the Goldblums since

Before David could realize what was happening, Woody snagged the Cosmic Night Pearl from him and started delightfully playing with it in his hands."Is this thing a real treasure?" he asked Alexia.Indeed, it was Alexia who'd asked him to buy it.The original words of the Princess of the Epochal Realm was, "Get this pearl regardless of the cost!"After checking the pearl several times, Woody couldn't find anything special about it and cast a sidelong glance at Snowy. He meant to tell her that he would spank her bottom badly if she was tricking him.Meanwhile, Snowy stared unblinkingly at the pearl in his hand. She said, "Don't worry, Master. The value of this pearl is far more than the total value of all the treasures on this ship."Again, Woody frowned and asked if she was telling the truth.Alexia replied, "I'm telling the truth! It's a Fox Spirit Elixir, the highest rank of treasure in the Fox Tribe. Judging from the quality, I reckon that only a Celestial Fox with cultivat
