The Legend of the Miracle Doctor

Chapter 73 The Disappearance Of The Lucky Gem

One hundred and sixty billion! After that price was mentioned, the room fell silent for a moment. It was clear that the offer for the Lucky Gem had exceeded the budget of most people. Although they really wanted to bring home the valuable item, they couldn't afford it. After hesitating for a moment, the man who had been continuously bidding finally put down his number board and stopped bidding. Celine had no intention of giving up at all, but when she was about to pick up her number board and bid again, Brian stopped her and said, "Celine, stop, don't bid for that item anymore." “Why? That item is the Lucky Gem! My father instructed me to bring it home.â€

Celine's purpose for coming today was the Lucky Gem, so of course she wouldn't give up so easily. Brian said, "The gem is just an ordinary gem, it's not even worth one million six hundred thousand." As soon as Brian said that, Wilbert immediately stood up and said angrily, "You brat, what do you know?" "Do you know that item is made by Master Bromo? How could an ordinary person like you dare to doubt the abilities of a master?" When Brian was about to say something, Celine quickly stopped him, "Enough, Brian, don't say anything else. No matter what, I have to bring home the Lucky Gem today." After finishing speaking, she immediately picked up the number board without hesitation and said, "I bid one hundred and eighty billion." Although others also heard Brian's words earlier, they all thought he was just a boastful kid, no one believed him. Darmin picked up the number board in his hand without hesitation, then said, "Two hundred billion." Initially, he didn't believe in feng shui and the like, but recently bad things had happened to him one after another, especially the continuous problems with Xanadu Complex. This made him change his mind immediately. Now he couldn't wait to use the Lucky Gem to change his fate. This was also the reason why he was selling the complex today. "This...." Celine was stunned. Although she was confident she would win the Lucky Gem, the Kasadi Family had underestimated the value of the gem. They had only prepared a budget of two hundred billion and it seemed like that amount was not enough now. Although the Kasadi Family was a large consortium worth hundreds of billions, they had coincidentally spent most of their funds on an investment, while other funds were not yet processed, so the available funds at the moment were not much. Seeing Celine was short of funds, Brian breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, his relationship with Celine was quite good. He really didn't want to see Celine spend a lot of money just to buy that trash. After hesitating for a moment, in the end, Celine still didn't want to give up the sparkling gem. She turned to Brian and asked, "Brian, don't you still have money? Can you lend me the remaining two hundred billion? I will pay you back within a week." Brian said, "Celine, please listen to me, that gem is really not worth this much money. Don't buy it or you will regret it." Wilbert sneered, "Celine, your boyfriend is really stingy. If I were him, I would definitely buy it for you." Wilbert had been annoyed with Brian since earlier, so of course he wouldn't miss the opportunity to criticize Brian. Celine also felt a little sad, she said once again, "Brian, please lend me your money. I will pay you back with interest." However, Brian instead asked, "Celine, why don't you understand? Even if I have to give you all my money, it doesn't matter, but that gem is fake, you shouldn't buy it." After hearing Brian's words, Wilbert immediately stood up and said to everyone, "Did you hear that? How dare that arrogant kid insult Master Bromo and say that Master Bromo's creations are fake. Do you believe him?" "We don't believe him, the kid is just talking nonsense." "You are so stingy. How can you come up with such a bad excuse just because you don't want to lend your money to Miss Celine..." "Can't you think of a better excuse if you want to lie? How can an ordinary person like you doubt Master Bromo's abilities...." Wilbert looked very proud, he continued, "Everyone knows, the Lucky Charm Gem has been entrusted by Master Bromo to the Lingga Family for auction. The Lingga Family also guarantees that the gem is indeed authentic. No matter how much money is needed to bring it home, it will be worth the price." At this moment, the auctioneer stepped onto the stage and said once again, "Everyone, Mr. Darmin has agreed to pay two hundred billion, is there anyone else who wants to bid? If not, this Lucky Charm Gem will belong to Mr. Darmin." Celine's expression became even more gloomy, she asked again, "Brian, will you lend me the money or not?" Celine felt sad. Brian's money came from gambling at the casino, but now Brian was unwilling to lend her the money. It made her feel completely worthless to the man. Meanwhile, Wilbert showed a sly smile, Celine was starting to get annoyed with the kid. In that case, it wouldn't be long before Celine would return to his arms. Brian shook his head, then quietly recited a mantra with his right hand. After that, a thin gust of air blew towards the Lucky Charm Gem.Although Brian was somewhat far from the stage, breaking weak spells like that was not difficult for a master of spells. After doing all that, Brian said, "Look at that item, are you still sure you want to buy it? If you do, I will transfer the money to you immediately." Celine looked up at the stage and saw that the Lucky Charm Gem, which had been shining brightly in the servant's hand, had now lost its light. It was just an ordinary white jade stone. As a descendant of a jewelry expert family, of course, she knew what item it was. After losing its light, it was just an ordinary jade stone. If taken out, it might not even be sold for hundreds of thousands. Celine broke out in a cold sweat. If she spent the remaining funds from the Kasadi Group to buy such an item, the consequences would be very dire. "W... what's happening?" Brian said, "I've been saying all along, that item is fake, it's not a Lucky Charm Gem at all, but a scam."At this point, everyone had also realized the change in the Lucky Charm Gem. They suddenly became agitated. "What's happening? Why did the Lucky Charm Gem suddenly change? Where is the sparkle from earlier?" "Isn't that just an ordinary stone? Can it really bring luck to people?" "So scary! Luckily I ran out of money earlier, otherwise, I might have committed suicide if I bought such an item at a high price..." Celine finally understood, she then apologized to Brian in a soft voice, "Brian, I misunderstood you earlier." Seeing all the events in front of him, Wilbert was also stunned. Although he knew that the Lucky Charm Gem was fake, it was indeed created by Master Bromo. Why was it suddenly useless? Seeing the situation getting out of control, he immediately shouted, "Ladies and gentlemen, do not believe the nonsense of that kid! The Lucky Charm Bead is a genuine creation of Master Bromo, it is not a fake!" Now everyone started to doubt again because Master Bromo's reputation was very well-known and trusted by everyone. Darmin stood there hesitantly, unsure whether to buy it or not. Then, Brian said, "Mr. Wilbert, now that the situation has come to this, do you still want to deny it? I don't know if the item was really made by Master Bromo or not, but I am certain that it is a fake bead. It will not bring luck to anyone."
