Chapter 812 On Fire

Of course, Oscar wasnt willing to lose the bid to Pamela, a young girl.

It would be too embarrassing.

But he wasnt that generous either.

He had merely bid a million dollars more than Pamela did.

Pamela immediately covered her mouth and laughed.

“Uncle Oscar, youre so miserly.

You bid almost double the previous bid just now and increased the price by nearly seventy million dollars! I just learned from you and bid double your bid.

Anyway, the Howards are rich enough to play this game.

“But you dont seem to be in the right state now.

You added only a million dollars.

Isnt that embarrassing to the Smiths If the Smiths dont have enough money, youd better withdraw sooner and stop competing with me!”

Pamelas tone was full of contempt and mockery.

How could Oscar stand being mocked by such a young girl In particular, the Smiths could never lose to the Howards!

“You actually said that the Smiths are poor.

Hmph!” Oscar raised his bidding card and shouted, “I bid thirty hundred and fifty million dollars!”

After placing his bid, he looked at Pamela provocatively, only to see a trace of contempt in her eyes.

Oscar immediately felt an ominous hunch and some regret.

He had been too impulsive just now!

This time, he had prepared only 300 million dollars, which was the biggest financial support his family could give him.

But he had just bid 350 million dollars.

Where was he supposed to find 50 million dollars

He had wanted to force Lucas at first, but he didnt expect Pamela to get involved, causing things to change drastically.

Lucas, whom he should have attacked, was sitting in his chair with a relaxed expression like a spectator watching a show.

This made the feeling of displeasure in Oscars heart even stronger.

“Okay, now the price for this plot of land has reached three hundred and fifty million dollars!

“Is there a higher bid than this”

The auctioneer was so excited that his face was red, and his voice was extremely loud.

Three hundred and fifty million dollars was definitely a staggering price for land.

The commission he would get as the auctioneer would be enough to last him a lifetime!

Given how high the price was, there was naturally no one daring to bid higher, including Pamela, who had just bid against Oscar.

She was now sitting without any intention of continuing to raise her card.

“Girl, werent you just competing with us Smiths and saying that you Howards are rich Why arent you bidding anymore” Oscar said to Pamela provocatively while suppressing his panic.

Pamela tilted her head and showed a girly and mischievous smile.

“Uncle Oscar, please dont take what I just said to heart! Im just a young girl.

How can I possibly make decisions about so much money for the Smiths

“Im not like you, Uncle Oscar.

Youre already one of the successors of the Smiths, and you might even be able to take charge of the whole Smith family in the future.

All you need to do is say something, and your familys billions of dollars will be at your disposal.

Youll be able to use the money as you please.

I cant compare to you at all!” Pamelas words were full of hidden mockery and sarcasm, making Oscar even more furious.

At the same time, the ominous hunch in his heart became increasingly intense, causing him to break out in cold sweat.

“Wh-what do you mean by that Do you not want to continue bidding Or is it that the Howards are admitting defeat” Oscar suppressed the panic in his heart and sneered at Pamela.

“Haha, Uncle Oscar, I told you.

I was just joking with you.

How can I possibly dare to compete against you for this land

“Im just a weak woman of the Howards, and I dont have any right over the familys money.

Its naturally impossible for me to spend so much money.

If you want to compete with the Howards, wouldnt it be more appropriate for you to go to my father and grandfather” Pamela tilted her head and smiled slyly.

Her words almost drove Oscar to his grave!

He had initially bid 150 million dollars just to force Lucas to admit defeat and bow down to the Smiths.

But Pamela actually jumped out all of a sudden and bid 300 million dollars, only to say that she was just joking!

If this matter spread back to DC, and his family members learned that he had been fooled by a girl from the Howard family, his reputation would be completely ruined.

The Smiths had always valued their reputation.

After Vince was forced to kneel down and apologize to Lucas, the Smiths had already been embarrassed, so much so that he lost his position as a successor.

And now, the fact that he was fooled by a young girl was just as embarrassing, and he was certain that the Smiths wouldnt forgive him!

After Pamela provoked him, he had impulsively bid 350 million dollars, but he only had 300 million dollars in total.

There was no way he could make up for the remaining 50 million.

If no one else bid, he would definitely have to proceed with buying the land for 350 million dollars.

Once he failed to get enough money to buy it, it would be even more embarrassing.

Beads of sweat gushed out of Oscars body one after another.

He turned pale, and he even started swaying unsteadily as if he was about to die.

“Hey, Uncle Oscar, whats the matter with you You dont seem very comfortable.

Are you sick” Pamela looked at Oscar and pretended to be surprised.

“But Uncle Oscar, you were fine just now.

Did you suddenly fall ill Ah, thats terrible.

Your family will be worried sick when they find out.

“Wait, Uncle Smith, why do you look even more awful now Do you want to hide this matter from your family Thats strange!

“Could it be that its not because youre sick but because you cant afford to take out the three hundred and fifty million dollars you

bid

“Ah, if thats the case, itll be horrible! If you really cant afford it, itll be such an embarrassment to the Smiths! Im afraid they might strip you of your position as a successor too.

That would be terrible!”

Pamela seemed to be dead bent on driving him mad as she spoke sarcastically.

Oscars face was flushed, and he was panting so heavily that the veins on his forehead were bulging.

He clenched his fists tightly.

Pamela was driving him mad.

Although this was what he really thought, he was still infuriated that a malicious young girl was calling him out in public.

“Shut up!” Oscar roared at Pamela before turning to face Lucas.

He snapped furiously, “Punk, werent you very arrogant earlier Didnt you say that you would fight with me for this land Why are you being cowardly now

“Is that all youre capable of Do you have to hide behind a woman because you dont even dare to bid against me”

“Ive already bid.

If you dont dare to beat my bid, just surrender to the Smiths! What kind of an overlord do you think you are

“Dont forget.

Once I win the auction for this land, Ill build Orange Countys largest cemetery on it.

When the time comes, Ill see what you can do!”

Oscar yelled at Lucas to goad him into bidding.

As long as Lucass bid was a little bit higher than his, he would immediately give up bidding and put all the pressure on Lucas instead.

But Lucas merely sneered.

“Instead of trying to goad me, youd better worry about how to take out three hundred and fifty million dollars!”
