Slumdog Billionaire Husband by Rayden Berg

Chapter 120 Raise Your Bidding Paddle

Tyrone came from a wealthy family. And Arnold, Koen, and Justin were even more loaded than him. They were all among the richest in Sacramento.

They were sitting in the front row, and no one dared to provoke them.

Arnold looked at Justin’s bandaged hand and said with a smile, “Tsk, tsk. Justin, come on. I can’t believe you let an ex-con, an outcast of your family, do this to you. And he’s doing fine no less. If I were you, I’d be so humiliated now.”

Justin snorted and sat in situ with his legs crossed. He curled his lips and said, “Tyrone told me something funny today. It’s about you and Koen’s incident in Splendor Restaurant You wanted to kick Gerald out of the restaurant, yet you thought too highly of yourself In the end, it was you who got kicked out by Harper.”

Arnold glared at Tyrone and then sneered, “Sooner or later, I will show Harper the consequences of offending me.”

Then he looked at Justin and asked, “What do you think? Are you interested in teaching Gerald a lesson together with me?”

“How?” Justin asked indifferently.

“Easy I provide men, and you provide the money we need,” Arnold said. “Gerald has been strong. since he was a kid. He is good at fighting. I know some fighters, and I have a lot of connections. I’ll get someone to kick his ass, and you’ll be responsible for compensation. How does it sound?”

“No problem,” Justin said calmly.

Koen remained cool. Instead of getting involved with their conversation, he just sat in situ and said, “The auction is about to begin.”

Behind them, Gerald was in his seat. Keira, who was beside him, said excitedly, “It is said that there

will be a lot of valuable things in this auction. I don’t think I’ll be able to afford any of them. I’m just

here window-shopping.”

Gerald nodded.

He knew something about antiques, yet he wasn’t interested. Knowing antiques was simply a must

for Watchmen.

Reece was behind them. He smiled and said, “It’s OK. Keira, just tell me what you like, and I’ll buy it

for you.”

Keira frowned and ignored him.

Reece snorted. Then he patted Gerald on the shoulder and said, “Asshole, get up and exchange.
