Chapter 1083:
Corrine didn’t say a word. Instead, she pulled out her phone and quickly typed a message to Nate.
From his VIP room, Nate watched as Corrine pulled out her phone, and he stopped fiddling with his own device.
Soon, his phone buzzed, and a small, nearly invisible smile tugged at his lips. He glanced down to read the text
from Corrine: “Is this stone really worth all this trouble?”
The butler, standing by the railing, noticed Nate’s expression. He hesitated for a moment, then moved forward
with a polite tone. “Sir, shall we carry on?”
Nate didn’t respond verbally. Instead, he quickly typed back to Corrine: “If it’s something you want, I'll get it for
you.”
When Corrine saw his reply, her lashes fluttered, and a warmth spread through her chest.
The people nearby began to notice the silence from Room No. 1 and started to get curious.
“What's going on in Room No. 1?” one person whispered.

Before the speaker could finish, Nate's sharp voice interrupted, “Double it!”
The two words sent a wave of shock through the crowd.
Even the experienced auctioneer, accustomed to handling valuable items, stood stunned. Although he wasn’t
familiar with stone betting, he had seen his fair share of rare gems. Yet this seemingly worthless rock was now
priced at six million!
In stone betting, the chances of winning were one in ten, making the bet seem like throwing money away.
The auctioneer quickly recovered, though his voice shook slightly. “The VIP from Room No. 1 has offered six
million. Are there any other bids?” The venue fell into a heavy silence.
When the woman in Room No. 2 heard Nate's bid, she felt her heart drop.
The woman, gently petting a cat in her arms, spoke in a cryptic tone. “It’s just an ordinary stone, yet he’s going
all in.”
The man next to her raised an eyebrow. “Shall we keep going?”
“He doesn’t usually care about much,” the woman sighed. “Let him have it. Once he sees it’s not worth the
hassle, he'll drop it.”
Meanwhile, the auctioneer called out,
“Six million 9g ores
