Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 971

Evidently, arguing was fruitless, hence Calvin initiated the bidding decisively. "One hundred and seventy million yuan!"

Mr. Hu did not hesitate and shouted vigorously, "One hundred and eighty million yuan!"

As a result, many wealthy merchants stopped bidding. After all, they could not afford to pay for it.

In truth, most of the executives only had a net worth of one billion yuan. Therefore, it was impossible for them to fork out 200 million yuan to bid for a talisman.

In the end, the auction turned into a fierce competition between Calvin and Mr. Hu.

Immediately, Mr. Hu announced his bid. Calvin paused to glance at Mr. Hu before raising his bidder card and exclaimed, "Two hundred million yuan."

"What?!" Mr. Hu was hesitant but he gritted his teeth and decided to raise his bidder card.

Suddenly, Calvin spoke, "Mr. Hu, your company seems to be struggling and you're having troubles with your assets. Are you sure you're going to fish out two hundred million yuan to bid for Tormiado Talisman? Your company's shareholders won't be happy about it, right?"

Mr. Hu's face darkened.

Calvin was smug as he added arrogantly, "Mr. Hu, why don't you let me have Tormiado Talisman? I'll definitely remember your help."

Calvin's remarks put out Mr. Hu's determination. In the end, Mr. Hu lowered his arm reluctantly.

Calvin smirked and glanced at Brayden. He asked proudly, "Young Master Chiu, two hundred million yuan is the highest price. Shouldn't you end the bid?"

Brayden intended to make more money, hence he did not close the bidding. On the contrary, he gazed at the wealthy merchants and tempted, "Everyone, my master put in painstaking effort to craft this talisman. After this, it would be impossible to get your hands on Tormiado Talisman."

Brayden's remarks caused a stir among the wealthy merchants. After all, they were willing to spend a fortune in exchange for their lives.

Nita was fidgeting as well. She bit her lip and wondered if she should raise her bidder card.

On the other hand, Fade was observing the talisman. In the end, he pressed Nita's arm and shook his head. He concluded, "Nita, don't." "Fade, I..." Nita was confused.

Meanwhile, Calvin scanned the anxious crowd. He was intimidating and tempting the bidders.

Alas, no one raised their bidder cards to compete with Calvin.

Brayden was a little upset with the outcome but he hammered the gavel reluctantly. In the end, Calvin purchased Tormiado Talisman for two hundred million yuan!

Calvin was thrilled and proud as he received the talisman.

After all, he crushed his opponents and managed to acquire a valuable talisman. The talisman was a display of his wealth and status.

Brayden was on stage as he received the money. He chatted with the wealthy merchants briefly and he was prepared to leave.

Nita glanced at Fade in confusion and there was a hint of regret in her eyes.

Fade was solemn as he explained softly, "Although I'm not an expert on Tormiado Talisman, I'm sure the talisman they auctioned was not as effective as they claimed it to be."

"Not as effective?" Nita gasped in surprise, "Fade, you're saying that the Tormiado Talisman is fake?" "In a way, the Tormiado Talisman is fake because that talisman is incapable of saving a dying patient. From what I can see, the talisman could only nurse the body and the effect is similar to nourishing the body with positive energy."

"Are... Are you sure?" Nita asked in astonishment.

Lily chipped in and persuaded, "Nita, you must believe Fade. After all, he's a powerful martial artist and he's stronger than Brayden's master, Titan." "Wow!" Nita was puzzled but she nodded and replied, "Fade, thanks for reminding me. Otherwise, I'll be bankrupt because of a fake talisman." Fade concluded in a low voice, "It's better to be careful with things like that. If no experts could appraise it, it's better to not believe them." Nita nodded and answered, "I'll keep that in mind, Fade."

She sighed and continued, "Well... I never expected Brayden, the young master of Titan Studio and Titan's disciple, to sell fake talisman at an auction." "Earlier, you mentioned that Brayden is a playboy. He has a few hundred million yuan debts and he even stole his master's belonging to sell them off. Judging from his character, it's possible that he's selling a fake talisman."

"I was too naive," Nita exclaimed as she stood up to leave with Fade and the others.

However, Calvin, who sat behind Fade, overheard the conversation. His face darkened and he sneered, "Why don't you just admit that you can't afford it? No one will taunt you for it. Yet, just because you can't afford it, that doesn't mean that you could accuse Brayden of selling fake talisman. Don't you think you're going too far?"

Calvin's voice was loud and clear. Immediately, the crowd turned their attention to him.

"Fake talisman! What?"

"Why would they sell a fake talisman at an auction?"

"Who are you referring to, Young Master Chiang?"

Amidst the deafening crowd, Calvin's lips curved into a scornful smile and he pointed at Fade. He exclaimed, "Everyone, I was just behind Mr. Chen and I heard everything. He told Miss Nita that the Tormiado Talisman is fake."

Everyone was bewildered by Calvin's accusations.

"What? This is Young Master Chiu we're talking about!"

"Rubbish! Stop running your mouth."

"Haha, you're just an outsider. Who do you think you are?"

The crowd was doubtful and sarcastic.

Fade frowned but he did not take it to heart. He was ready to leave with Nita and Lily.

However, Calvin refused to leave them alone. He blocked Fade and scoffed, "What? Mr. Chen, are you leaving?"

Fade furrowed his brows and retorted, "Why not? Who do you think you are?"
