Chapter 113: Auction Event 4
The tension between us only grew as the evening went on, getting to a point where I was starting to come up with ways where we could be alone together.
Below us, the auction continued at full speed. The original ten million price had already doubled, and the pacing of the bids didn’t slow down at all.
Morgan looked like she had aged in the matter of minutes. Twenty million was already too high a price for her, and the MC just announced that it reached twenty-six million. For once, she was the one being tormented, and it was liberating to watch.
-
"Forty million! Bidder 419!" the MC announced, stunning the entire audience. The previous high bid was thirty million, and an increase of ten million just like that was very steep.
I didn’t know there were so many wealthy people here.
Craning my neck, I looked around to see if I could spot any new or familiar faces, but the hall was so large that it was hard to make out people’s faces from a distance.
After the forty million mark, only two people continued to bid against each other until the price hit fifty million!
"Fifty-two million! Bidder 419!" the MC announced, hoping to see the price go up even higher. We all waited in anticipation, but after a few long moments, the MC declared 419 as the winner.
