"Six million coins," he declared, staring at Victor.
"All set to move straight to Mr. Ray's account. Think of it as finished. Are you still looking to continue, or should I seal my deal?" Thompson asked Victor after glancing at him briefly.
Victor's face turned white as he asked, "Six million for a car!" Even for his guild, that was a serious setback.
He was wealthy, but it was a tough choice to spend so much money on a single car when he had other commitments to fulfill.
He had the option to bid more, but at what price? There was a long, expectant silence. In anticipation of Victor's next move, the audience became more anxious.
Victor finally shook his head and let out a frustrated sigh. With a bitter tone, he conceded, "All right, Thompson, you win this round."
"But this isn't over."
He gave the other cars on display a serious look, making it obvious that he intended to compete for them.
