NovelEnglishChapter 1088 "You should see this,” he said and immediately hung up in fear of being yelled at.
Ralph frowned and opened the attached photos. He noticed that this was taken in what seemed like an underground auction house. No price was stated, but there were a few comments under the item.
"What is this? They're starting to sell anything here. Is this Amazon now?" commented usern‘Black spade 5.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"So silly! Whose kid took sbook and started selling it here?" replied ' Red heart 7.
‘This website is getting worse. | suggest we kick this person out and delete his ID." wrote ‘Square 9" The comment section was filled with different comments that all meant the sthing. They were all making fun of the book and saying that anyone could get it for a few dollars on Amazon, yet someone had the guts to put it up for auction. Ralph was growing more and more enraged as he read the comments.
Heather was right-this was a fake! It was not ssecret kickboxing handbook at all. He was being made fun of because he had tagged the book as ssecret technique handbook and put it up for auction. Thank goodness no one knew that he owned this ID, or he would end up a laughingstock.
"Mr. Russell!” Ralph answered his phone, and the person on the other side questioned cautiously, "So, you were only joking, right?" It had already been hours since they released the book for auction, and not a single person had bid on it. The price he had asked for also seemed like a huge joke.
"Of course, | was joking. Do you think | don't know that it's a fake? I'm just trying to test if this underground website is secure. It looks like the users are just slowlifes, such a stupid website!" He acted as if he were mocking the website, saying, ‘Take it down now. It's so lame!" Ralph’s subordinate sighed in relief and took the item down immediately. Then he said, "Mr. Russell, it's best if you don't joke like this anymore.
There are sgenuine kickboxers on this web if we accidentally make them unhappy...” “Enough talking! You think I'll be afraid of smuscles?" Ralph yelled into the phone, "Fine! | know what to do!" He hung up the phone and threw his phone onto the bed. However, he accidentally pulled a muscle doing this.
"Ouch!" He drew in a sharp breath. His arm hurt, and he was angry! After all the planning, everything he had done was in vain. He had even begged his mother to help him. If she knew about his failure and that Heather had used him instead of wanting to be married into the Russell family, he would be unable to obtain resources from the Riggs family, either He had suffered double losses! The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt. This was all Heather's fault. If it were not for her using him and setting up a trap for him to fall into, he would not have gone to steal that stupid book.
Now, Ralph was sure that Alexander knew it was him who stole the book, and it would only turn ugly if Alexander were to confront him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was in a tough position. Alexander had not confronted him yet, and on Heather's end, they were already enemies now. Ralph had lost everything, and most importantly, he might even lose his mother's trust and support.
If that happened, he would be left with nothing and no one would be willing to help him anymore.
After thinking for a while, even though he was furious at Heather's betrayal, there was nothing he could do about it. He could not win a fight against her. If she already had the secret handbook, she would be more dangerous.
On the other hand, Ralph still had a trump card up his sleeve. Maybe he could still win against Alexander! With that thought in mind, he looked out his window with an unreadable expression while holding onto his injured arm.
He could see the first break of dawn, and the night sky was about to brighten up.
