The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage romance Capítulo 1256

Could the rock actually be a treasure, but Frank was just trying to play down its value so that the other guests would not compete?

With that in mind, everyone was suddenly interested, while Travis was delighted.

Frank's move was basically promoting the rock!

Beaming, he asked, "Forgive my ignorance, Mr. Lawrence, but I've always treated it as a red gemstone. Would you mind telling me what it is, if it's not a gemstone?"

"It really is just a normal rock," Frank said calmly, despite the troubled look in his eyes. "However, it holds a special meaning to me, which is why I will buy it."

"Pfft."

Hugh was snickering—did Frank really take them for fools?

Whether it was really a gemstone or not, the fact that Frank tried to disparage it while trying to buy it meant there was something fishy going on.

He must be worried that the others would compete with him.

With that, Hugh looked up and grinned. "Since Mr. Lawrence is interested, there has to be something special about it, and I'll buy it for the sake of research. I bid 1.1 billion."

"Two billion," Frank said quietly even before the others could react. "Like I said, it's pointless for the rest of you. Don't screw over yourself."

"And why would you think that?" Hugh retorted, sneering. "Three billion!"

"Four billion," Frank said calmly. "I can keep going if you want."
