Chapter 189
The blonde saw the figure on the monitor and announced excitedly, “At ninety million. Ninety million
from Box Two.”
Zeke looked at the figure on the screen and gently frowned. “Lucifer, I’m not going to bid if it goes
beyond one hundred million.”
His highest valuation of this diamond was one hundred million dollars, which he could still get from the
old man in his family. Paying anything more than that would not be worth it, and the old man would
probably skin him alive.
Nicole understood what Zeke meant and could not help but glance at him. She really wanted to look up
who his ancestors were, as unlike what she thought, he seemed to be wealthy. Zeke seemed well

trained in an ordinary family. This diamond was worth one hundred million dollars at most.
Nicole nodded at seeing him looking at her nervously. She had wanted to bid for Zeke, and since he
had also said so, she happily obliged.

Box Three was silent for a second, but before long, there was another bell ranging.
The blonde looked at the figure on the screen of Box Three with relief. She announced, “One hundred
million from Box Three.”
The task given to her by the auction house was to make sure that the diamond was to be sold for one

Zeke heard the price and quickly shook his head at Nicole.
Nicole got the hint and did not ring the bell. She stood with her arms folded, casually looking at the

Dino in Box One breathed a sigh of relief. He gently wiped the sweat from his face with a handkerchief
before turning to look at Jared.
Jared ignored him and stared at Box Two, impressed by them, who were smart enough to let up at the

Dino knew that he had escaped punishment this time.

she was thinking.
Jared took his eyes off her and fiddled with a dagger in his hand with an expressionless face as if he
were playing with a kid’s toy. Only he knew what he was thinking.
His phone rang suddenly, interrupting Jared’s train of thought. He frowned at seeing the caller ID.
“What’s up?” he answered.
Max’s excited voice sounded on the other end. “Boss, we have found out the identity of Specter. His
name is Zeke Guzman, a first-year student of the Northon Institute. That’s all we have found right now,
but this is a good enough lead for us to dig further.”
‘Zeke Guzman?’ Jared’s hand paused, and he had thought of something. No one knew that the first
name of the army commander of Hustuaburg was Guzman.
