"You... You b*stard!" Sherleen's hands and feet were shaking with anger.
Keith looked at Sean and said with a chuckle, "Mrs. Yale just bid six million. Do
you want to keep bidding, Mr. Lennon?"
Keith did not even address them according to the paddle numbers anymore; he
went by Mrs. Yale and Mr. Lennon.
Sean smiled and nodded before slowly saying, "I bid ten million dollars for the 30
medical books."
Ten million!
Sherleen had bid six million, and now Sean bid ten million in the blink of an eye!
How terrifying. Even Sherleen, who was the head of the Yale family, felt intense
pressure because of the ten million.
"Mom, forget it... Grandpa's disease can't be cured just by buying some medical
books. They probably don't have such a magical effect even if they're Dr.
Humphrey's medical books. After all, medical books have to be studied first. No
one can master Dr. Humphrey's medical skill through 30 books..." Sherman
spoke to his mother, Sherleen, as he grabbed her by the wrist.
Sherleen looked at her son and hesitated for a while before she sighed. "I can't
take this. The Yale family has never lost, but this Lennon boy kept..."
Sean's voice suddenly rang before Sherleen could finish speaking.
"Mrs. Yale, I advise you not to compete with me. You're no match for me.
Moreover, it's not like we can't copy these 30 medical books. You can come to
me after I win them. I can copy these 30 medical books for you for free. What do
you think?"
Sean was giving Sherleen a way out by saying that. After all, he did not want to
offend Sherleen or the Yale family she represented.
He was new to Midwich and only had Gabe, Benji, and Derrick as his friends who
would help him, and he had already offended the Jensen family. It would be
unwise to offend the Yale family at this point.
Using these 30 medical books to establish a friendship with the Yale family was
the right choice.
Sherleen froze and pursed her mouth in silence after hearing Sean's remark. She
knew it was for the best, but she kept silent because she could not swallow it.
Sherman, who was sitting next to her, stood up and said to Sean with a chuckle,
"Mr. Lennon, that's a good suggestion. Since you're willing to copy these 30
medical books to the Yale family, we would like to be friends with you. Of course,
the Yale family won't take it for free. We will come to you with five million dollars
in cash to make it up to you."
"Whatever floats your boat,” Sean said with a nod.
He intended to copy the books for the Yale family for free. Since Sherman
insisted on paying for it for five million dollars, so be it.
Besides, if the Yale family had not insisted on competing with him in the first
place, Sean would not have spent ten million dollars on the auction. Perhaps he
could have won the bid with two or three million dollars.
Sean had no psychological blocks from accepting a five million compensation.
"Okay, then we'll talk about it after the auction,” Sherman said and turned around
to sit down.
The Yale family stopped competing with Sean, and other people were
uninterested in these 30 medical books, so they were sold for ten million and
belonged to Sean.
After all the commotion, the auction guests were interested in Sean.
