My Aloof Sisters Asked for My Forgiveness

"It's fine. Trust me, I will win all the money back," Dustin said reassuringly.

Simone's face froze. Was this not the sort of thing that gamblers said all the time?

When had such words ever come true?

Simone never expected that Dustin would say such a thing and suddenly felt troubled.

"What? Do you still have the guts to keep competing?" Killian and the others asked gleefully.

"Let's continue," Dustin said.

'You really overestimate yourself. You don't even know what's coming,' they thought.

Dustin was falling right into their trap. They wore disdainful looks and did not think that Dustin was a threat.

What did it matter that Dustin had a decent eye for antiques? They were still playing with him like a cat played with its prey.

Simone really wanted to stop the competition, but the second round had already begun.

This time, two jade sculptures were placed on the table. The jade was magnificent and translucent, and the sculptures were about five inches tall.

"The authentic jade sculpture is worth 900 thousand dollars. You will pay 450 thousand dollars each. You may bid from 900 thousand dollars to 1.8 million."

"Do you still have the money?" Killian asked contemptuously. "You don't look like you do. Let's use a round number, then. Let's go with one million dollars."

Dustin only nodded.

"Haha... I can't wait to see you cry from your loss!" Luna shouted joyfully.

They knew that Dustin would definitely lose.

The competitors then started their authentication process.

Dustin remained unmoved and only eyed the piece once.

Since the bet was a million dollars, Darren did not dare to be careless. He was

very serious as he looked the piece over.

After a long time, he pointed at one of the sculptures in uncertainty.

Killian once again looked at his phone, and he could not help but frown.

The tip was a little unclear this time, so he did not quite dare to make his choice so easily.

"Darren, are you sure that this is the real one?" he asked.

"This is a very hard piece to authenticate. But if you ask me, it's likely that it's original."

Killian wavered for a moment before choosing the one Darren had pointed out.

Naturally, Dustin chose the remaining piece.

Everyone looked at the host and waited for him to announce the answer.

The tension in the room shot up.

"The authentic jade sculpture from the Nevera Era is... the one Mr. Fox chose!" the host announced.

The room exploded into a cacophony.

It was a shock that Dustin, who seemed so careless in his choice, had identified the correct piece.

Simone's nerves finally relaxed when

she heard the announcement. Shoe".

could not help but let out a long, relieved breath.

Dustin had actually chosen correctly!

The jade sculpture was worth 900,000 dollars. After discounting the amount they had paid, thate meant that they made 1.45 million

dollars!

Even including the losses from before, they had still come out with a significant

sum.

Meanwhile, Killian, Darren, and Luna all looked displeased.noveldrama

How could they have lost when they were getting tips from the inside?

What was going on?

During the previous round, they had been pleased. After losing the second round, they were livid.

Killian eyed Darren but did not say a thing. However, his meaning was very clear.

He was judging Darren, an

experienced veteran, for picking the wrong piece after being so

meticulous in his examination and

losing to someone who had only taken a glance. How could he be considered an expert?

Killian's face was stormy, and he could not hide it. He felt very upset.

"Let's keep going!" Killian barked.

He did not believe even for a second that he could not win, especially when he had the organizers helping him.

"In the next round, you will be authenticating pearls from the Myrena Era."

"Forget about those. Bring out the most expensive item!" Killian said loudly.

He was very impatient and wanted Dustin to lose it all.

His sharp gaze pinned Dustin as a sinister smile grew on his face. He shot Dustin

a challenging look.

"Do you dare to accept this challenge?"
