Chapter 458 - Sold at 52 (1/2)

”And 43 million dollars… 43, do we have 44 million dollars?” The auctioneer called out and saw a bidder raised their card.

”44 million, in the room it's 44 million dollars now. 45 million?”

Aivy raised her bidder card.

”45 million dollars now. 46 million dollars? Yes, Mr. Tankhamum? We have 46 million dollars on the phone.” The auctioneer continued his chant animatedly.

Lance raised his bidder card. ”47 million dollars now in the room. Do we have 48 million dollars?”

Aivy raised her card anxiously. ”48! Yes, Miss Aivy. 48 million dollars!”

”49 million dollars… 49… Do we have 49 million dollars? 49?”

”Ms. Soa, 49 million dollars on the phone!”

Aside from the bidders on the ballroom, there were also those who expressed their interest in the lot that was to be auctioned since GBC Auction Ball posted them on their website. If they cannot be present on the night of the auction, they can bid via telephone as long as they were registered earlier before the auction started.

”50 million dollars… 50 million ladies and gentlemen… 50 million dollars, bid now!” This time, the aggressive bidders earlier cannot be heard. It was only Aivy who's bold enough to raise her bidder card.

But Lance and Diana were much bolder when they challenge Aivy with their 51 million dollars bid.

”51 million dollars now in the room ladies and gentlemen. Do we have 52? Do we have 52 million dollars?” The ballroom fell silent.

”Aivy, this is too risky,” Hector warned Aivy in a hushed tone. They already spend 75 million dollars on the Massive J and they cannot go beyond 52 million dollars for The Golden Red although Aivy has a guarantee that she could reimburse all her money from The Children of Mt. Celandine.

J watched at the scene in front of her. Everything falls into place just like what they planned. Although Aivy looked hesitant, she was sure that Aivy will bid for a higher price. And Aivy didn't fail her when she raised her bidder card.

”52 million dollars! Bid now ladies and gentlemen. 52 million dollars on Miss Aivy.”
