Chapter 94 Heart of the Earth
“I’m giving you till a count of three. If you don’t apologize, uh, I’m going to beat you.” Judge interrupted him.
As he spoke, a strong aura emanated from him and immediately enveloped Doug.
“One!”
“You… you are too arrogant! You’ll see…” Doug shuddered all over and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes. He didn’t expect that with Judge standing there, he would have a feeling of being pushed into an ice cellar.
“Two!”
“Doug, you’d better apologize now, otherwise you will regret it!” Derek reminded him calmly.
“Three!” At the same time as Judge spoke, the pressure and momentum on his body increased again.
Under this kind of intense pressure, Doug, a playboy like him, couldn’t hold on and his legs went weak as he knelt down directly.
Then, with a trembling voice, he compromised, “I’m… I’m sorry. It was my fault. Please… please forgive me…”
Chins dropped all around, as a group of young masters and misses never expected Doug to actually kneel down and apologize. If they were not there, they wouldn’t have believed that.
Audrey, who was standing aside, also had a look of strong shock in her eyes, and at the same time, she became even more curious about Billy’s identity.
“If you’re not satisfied, feel free to come find me anytime.” Derek said calmly.
Afterwards, Billy and the other three people went to their seats.
Without the oppressive pressure of Judge, Doug breathed out a heavy sigh.
“I swear I’ll kill all of you one day!” Doug murmured as he watched them leave. He stood up and pushed away the crowd watching, “Everyone, get out of my way!”
And he walked towards the entrance of the estate. Having been so embarrassed, he couldn’t continue to stay here.
“Derek, who is that dandy?” Judge asked as the four of them sat down near the stage on the east side.
“The second son of the Wood family, a spoiled playboy.” Derek responded.
“The Wood family?”
Derek nodded. “This family is one of the four major families in Enssea, just like the Ryan family. Relatively speaking, they are even stronger than the Ryan family.”
“No wonder!” Judge shrugged his shoulders.
“How’s your relationship with these two families?” Billy asked casually.
“It’s just a regular business partnership, nothing special.” Derek replied.
Billy nodded slightly.
The group continued chatting for a while until a uniformed beauty holding a microphone stepped onto the stage.
“Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the third global tour of Heart of the Earth. On behalf of Baroness Jewelry, I warmly welcome you all!” she announced.
“As per our tour itinerary, we will begin with an auction. All jewelry up for auction today are new products developed by Baroness Jewelry this year and have not yet been released for sale. Don’t miss out if you’re interested!”
“…”
Five minutes later, the auction officially began. Billy and his companions were only here for Heart of the Earth and had no interest in bidding, so they sat in their seats chatting instead.
The atmosphere at the live auction was intense as bids kept rising higher and higher. In less than an hour, nearly ten billion worth of sales had been made.
Two hours passed in a blink of an eye.
“Thank you all for your generous support. Today’s auction has come to an end!” The uniformed beauty once again took to the stage.
“I know everyone has been eagerly anticipating it, don’t worry! We’re about to start today’s grand finale. Ladies and gentlemen, please give your warmest applause as we welcome Baroness Jewelry’s Commander Manager, Nina Schaal on stage!”
“Nina is also the chief designer of Heart of the Earth, and she will personally wear it to meet everyone!”
Applause thundered through the venue. The next moment, a tall and graceful beauty walked onto the stage. She was in her late twenties, a typical Western beauty with blonde hair and blue eyes. Her figure was graceful and noble, and she wore a faint smile on her face. Objectively speaking, she was definitely a super beautiful woman.
After admiring her face for a while, everyone’s gaze shifted to the exquisite necklace around her neck. The platinum chain was set with ninety-nine small diamonds of uniform size. The pendant was an uniquely shaped blue diamond surrounded by small white diamonds. It was exquisitely beautiful and dazzling.
“Wow! It’s too beautiful, too perfect!”
“No wonder it’s been hailed as the most perfect diamond necklace in nearly ten years, it’s truly stunning!”
“Oh my god if I could have this necklace for just one day my life would have no regrets!”
…
As they looked at that string of exquisite Heart of the Earth diamonds, there were bursts of admiration from all around. Not only inside but outside estate grounds as well where two large LCD screens echoed with exclamations at once.
“Truly worthy of its name, Heart of the Earth!” Derek looked at the necklace and then turned to Billy. “Mr Gardner, what do you think?”
Billy nodded and then had a thoughtful expression on his face. “If Harleen wore it, she would be even more beautiful.”
“Brother, wake up! This necklace is not for sale!” said Judge.
“It’s just diamonds. Don’t worry, give me a month and I’ll get you a bigger diamond!”
Judge had no interest in this kind of thing except for thinking that the diamond could be bigger.
“You’re so uncivilized!” Casey glared at Judge before looking at Derek.
“Derek, do you know anyone from Baroness Jewelry? Can you introduce me?”
“This beauty on stage is not only the Commander manager of Baroness Jewelry, she’s also a member of the Gater family.” Derek responded.
“I visited her yesterday but her attitude was very firm.”
Judge looked at the woman on stage again and hesitated for a moment. Then he turned to Billy. “Brother, why do I feel like I’ve seen this woman somewhere before?”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“Judge, as far as I know, it’s actually her first time to come to Glavale.” Derek chimed in.
“I’m not kidding.” Judge sized the woman up and added, “I’m sure I saw her before somewhere else.”
“Your eyes are always familiar with beautiful women.” Billy said sarcastically as he glanced at him.
Then he looked at Derek. “After the exhibition ends, make an appointment with someone from their company for me to talk to them.”
“Got it!” Derek nodded.
Although he still felt that there was little hope, since it was Billy’s order, he executed it unconditionally. Moreover, in his impression, Billy had always been a miracle worker. Maybe he could change the other party’s mind.
“I’ll buy this necklace. What’s your price? Is ten billion enough?”
Suddenly, a man who looked like a nouveau riche stood up from his seat.
