The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 66
“Seven hundred thousand!” Leon’s face soured even more.
If what he sensed earlier was correct, then there was almost certainly a very strong
and pure energy coming from inside that raw jade stone. It would be more than
enough to set up an Energy Convergence Circle!
He was determined not to give up on such a good piece of jade so easily!
“Eight hundred thousand!”
Brody continued to increase the price.
“Nine hundred thousand!” Leon gritted his teeth.
“One million!” Brody looked at Leon with a teasing expression.
“I…” Leon’s face became ashen. His total assets were only 1.4 million. Excluding the 7,000–dollar
medical expenses he forked for Serena and the 300,000–dollar security deposit he just paid, he had just
over 1.3 million left.
Where was he going to get the extra money to rival Brody’s offer?
“One million?”
“That small piece of raw jade stone reached one million in that bidding war? Are those two guys crazy?”

“True. Even if it contains some unique cream–clear jadeite, it’s still not worth one.
million dollars!”
“They’re both brain–dead idiots! That’s the only explanation for their actions!”
The onlookers inhaled sharply and looked at Leon and Brody as if they looked at two
clowns.
Even the huge piece of cream–clear jadeite that the old shopkeeper extracted earlier was only sold for a
bit under 900,000.

It was not just the customers who were surprised, even the experienced storekeeper

Kai Jacobsen was stunned. Never did he expect that a piece of raw jade stone would reach a high price
of one million in a bidding war, and he began to seriously doubt whether Leon and Brody were even sane
in the first place!
In any case, he would only stand to benefit from their stupidity, and it was quite enjoyable for him to see
how things would play out!
“Go on, Leon! Bid higher! That is… If you have what it takes! Are you giving up so quickly? Hmm?” Brody
mocked.
“I’ll pay 1.1 million!”
Leon’s face turned pale and his mood sank to rock bottom.
He offered almost his entire net worth for the price. If Brody increases the price to 1.2 million, he would
have no choice but to concede even though that was the last thing he wanted to do.
“Darling! He only increased the price by a hundred thousand, which means he can’t go any higher than
that! Bid 1.2 million and end him!” Marilyn said excitedly.
“Don’t be ridiculous! Raw jade stone like this is worth maybe three hundred thousand? We can buy loads
of them with one million! You think I’m going to stupidly waste my money like that?” Brody scolded
angrily.
He overheard everyone’s discussion earlier. Even if that raw jade stone contained cream–clear jadeite,

Furthermore, the probability that it would contain cream–clear jadeite was very low! It was not like such
pieces were easy to find!
Even if Brody’s family operated a gold mine, he would never just waste his money like that!
“I know you want me to bid 1.2 million, Leon, but I’m not going to let you have your way! If you want that
piece of jade so badly, you can have it for 1.1 million! I’m not going to entertain you in your foolish
games!” Brody laughed with a hint of ridicule in his expression.
He never intended to buy that raw jade stone in the first place, and he only increased his bid higher to
deliberately mess with Leon and make things troublesome for him.
Brody surmised that Leon had the same goal as he did, which was to trick him into paying stupid money
for it by raising the price repeatedly. If, Brody did offer a bid of 1.2 million for the raw jade stone, then
Leon would have stopped bidding and let Brody have it.
After the situation escalated that far, it was clear to everyone present there that the

person who went through with the purchase of that raw jade stone was an utter fool. Brody did not want
to be that person, as he felt that such an ‘honor‘ should be best left for Leon!
“You……”
Leon was so angry that he could feel his insides churn.
