Female Novel
Chapter 719
Frank, however, had no intention to negotiate and refused bluntly. "I'm sorry, Ms. Lionheart—I have great use for my HaleMarrow, and I'm not selling no matter what you offer me."
"What?!" Sif did a double take, her temper flaring right then.It was the first time someone would refuse her, the heiress of the Lionheart!
"I'm being nice here!" she snapped. "Know your place and give it to me right now! No one ever refuses me, and everyone willalways hand over whatever | want to me on a silver platter!"
Frank simply raised a brow and sneered. "Really? How on earth did you manage to describe daylight robbery with suchrighteous words? Or perhaps you own this place too? Surely you should know how to abide by rules too, Ms. Lionheart?"
"Shut up! What | say is the rule!" Sif bellowed haughtily, glaring at Frank. "The Lionhearts will make this worth your while—youbought it for 200 million, didn't you? I'm now buying it for 2 billion dollars. It's no loss for you, so hand it over!"
Seeing that Sif was stubbornly persistent, Frank laughed despite himself.
To think Sif herself was mocking him for buying the hale pearl for 200 million just earlier. Now that he had unveiled the realtreasure within, Sif was now bent on taking it from him!
Still, it was even more outrageous that Sif was demanding to have it for just 2 billion dollars—it was hardly the value for a realtreasure like the Hale Marrow! The woman was really taking him for a fool!novelbin
“And what if | still refuse?" Frank asked, leveling a cool stare at Sif.
"Then you'll have to face the consequences," Sif threatened him, not pulling her punches at all.
Even if she only got an underdeveloped Hyperion Root, the Hale Marrow would make up for it and then some.It was her only way to recoup her losses, and she would take it from Frank even if it meant her embarrassment.
"It's disappointing to think that a Lionheart would be so lacking in virtue." Frank snorted, shaking his head. "I actually believed fora moment that your family was the upstanding sort after meeting Titus Lionheart—well, consider my eyes open now."
With that, he turned toward everyone else in the auction hall and spoke audibly, "Everyone! It seems that the Lionhearts wouldnot hesitate to claim any treasures you may luck into on this day. Are you willing to just roll over and yield? If so, why bother withthe auction at all?!"
Pointing at Sif just then, Frank bellowed furiously, "Just let Ms. Lionheart look through the entire catalog, and then claim whatsloppy seconds she leaves! That's all the rest of us deserve, right? No! Even if she messes up and misses some treasure, she'llclaim it from you anyway! You must return it because it's rightfully hers! If you refuse, she will name-drop her family and threatento end you! So, | ask again: why bother with the auction at all?! Why don't we all just swear fealty to the Lionhearts, become theirlapdogs, and deliver all we have as tributes?!"
The auction hall was silent after Frank was finished, and everyone was scowling.After all, he was right—why bother with the auction at all?!
