Chapter 173
A middle–aged man with thick brows and large eyes was seated in Room 5, located on the second floor.
“Who‘s this young man downstairs?”
“I‘m not really sure. However, he‘s sitting next to Zachary, and he seems very close with Zachary‘s
granddaughter. It‘s possible that he‘s the boyfriend of Zachary‘s granddaughter,” reported the
subordinate standing next to him.
“Send someone to inform Zachary to yield the item out of respect to me, Howard Rosweld. The Bocca
Fruit is of utmost importance to me.”
The subordinate turned around in preparation to dispatch the order.
Howard called out to him and said, “If he doesn‘t give up, tell him that Sir Osborn wants it.”
“Yes, sir.”
A steward–looking man made his way to Kayson.
Zachary‘s expression turned solemn upon hearing the message. Soon afterward, he said,” Please help
me reply to Mr. Roswell that we need the Bocca Fruit to save a patient‘s life, so we can‘t yield.”
Upon hearing, the steward said in all seriousness, “Mr. Ewell, Sir Osborn wants the Bocca Fruit.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZachary‘s pupils constricted abruptly. He declined persistently initially, but he expressed his hesitation in
the meantime.
“Mr. Ewell, I‘m sure you understand Sir Osborn‘s power. The item auctioned on the stage may be
important but are you and your granddaughter‘s lives more important than that little item?”
It was a modest threat!
Kayson took a glance at the steward and asked, “Are you from Room 5?” “Yes,” replied the steward
nonchalantly. He needed to behave courteously to Zachary.
However, he needed not to be respectful toward the young lad of unknown background.
“Go back and tell the person upstairs that this is an auction, understand? The highest bidder wins, and
you can give up if you don‘t have the money. It‘s a simple principle.”
The steward‘s expression changed drastically, and he glared at Kayson ferociously. “It seems that you‘re
clueless about Sir Osborn‘s terror!”
‘This man is going to get himself killed!” Kayson could not be bothered to pay attention to the steward.
He raised his bidding paddle and said, “$10,300,000!” The steward‘s expression turned solemn. “Mr.
Ewell...” Zachary heaved a sigh and said, “I‘m really sorry!”
Chapit
The steward let out a grunt upon noticing the situation. “If that‘s the case, you better look out for yourself,
Mr. Ewell.” After the steward left, Zachary said with a bitter smile, “A bigshot is watching us, just as
expected.”
Kayson asked, “Who is this Sir Osborn? Is he very fussy?”
“He‘s relatively troublesome. I figure it will be quite difficult to handle him even if Tyrone helps out,” said
Zachary.
“Ah?” Kayson was astounded. If he was not mistaken, someone said that there were very few matters
that the Tinsleys could not solve in Skyriv.
“We‘ll discuss further later. Just as you mentioned, it‘s an auction, and the highest bidder wins.
“Even Sir Osborn will need to be reasonable, right?”
Kayson nodded.
Meanwhile, the steward had already reported on Kayson‘s attitude and other matters in Room 5 on the second floor.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“This is preposterous! Is Zachary trying to get himself killed?” Howard‘s expression was unpleasant and
filled with rage.
‘The bidding price is already at $13,300,000!‘
“Howard, the young lad is rather foolish. I think that Zachary might feel that we won‘t go hard on this
matter.” Next to him, a young man with long hair and long bangs suggested, “The bidding price is already
so high, just let them have it. “We will just take it from them, and by doing this, we‘ll be able to save on
the money!” Howard assumed a stern expression. “Zachary is not a nobody, using a trick like this...” The
young man with long bangs said, “Howard, Zachary is just a doctor after all. Who is he when compared
to Sir Osborn?
“He ruined Sir Osborn‘s matter while we‘re only rendering our service to Sir Osborn. Who‘s going to have
the audacity to criticize us? All in all, it is Zachary‘s fault for not knowing his
place!
“By then, you‘re going to be in the most trouble when Sir Osborn is looking for someone to blame!”
The remark triggered Howard. “Commission Master Garcia to perform the task then.” Howard said,
“Master Garcia is visiting Clouspring coincidentally in an attempt to look for his junior, Titus Wood.”
“That‘s wise of you, Howard! We‘ll most certainly acquire the Bocca Fruit with Master Garcia‘s help.”
