When she caught Kingsleys eye, she quickly turned away with a pout.
Look, Dr. Baldwin, Fran seems jealous! Lauren chuckled.
Should we invite her to join our fun? Before Kingsley could respond, Francesca yelped as though Laurens suggestion had burned.
her
She scooted farther away and huffed, I would never! You two are shameless! Meanwhile, Elsies blushing response to the crowds teasing had the young heirs and aging executives alike worked into a frenzy
Kingsley had to admit she knew her craft she had skillfully turned the lukewarm reception of the Celestial Nymphaea into an energetic atmosphere.
A womans beauty, when wielded properly, could indeed be a powerful tool.
Since our distinguished guests don’t seem too interested in this Celestial Nymphaea, lets start the bidding at 750 thousand dollars, Elsie announced with feigned disappointment.
Her alluring glance across the VIP suites stirred even the initially uninterested buyers into participating. 780 thousand dollars consider it a favor for you, Ms. Santana ! someone called out.
825 thousand dollars we must support Ms. Santana, after all! The bidding quickly heated up, reaching 900 thousand dollars. Lauren frowned
Ms. Santana may have fooled these hormone driven idiots, but these rising prices arent doing Dr. Baldwin any favors… Then, she announced loudly, 1.05 million let me cool things down a bit.
Elsies eyes lit up
Ms. Rhodes bids 1.05 million! Any other offers ? If not, this premium medicinal herb goes to Ms. Rhodes
The sudden jump in price silenced many bidders.
It was not that they could not match Laurens bid, but rather that they were not interested enough in the Celestial Nymphaea to throw away their money just to please Elsie.
Francescas face lit up.
Kingsley, the Celestial Nymphaea is about to be yours! Suddenly, a raspy voice cut through the air.
1.2 million I must have this Celestial Nymphaea ! Lauren and Francesca instantly scowled, their gazes snapping toward the source.
Laurens voice turned icy as she said, Michael, couldnt you see I wanted this herb ? From his VIP suite, Michaels laughter echoed
Lauren, what you want has nothing to do with me.
And for the record, I’m not the one bidding.
Lauren sneered
Not you? Then why is the bid coming from your suite ? Michael shrugged.
So what? Its not my bid.
Besides, you’re only after this herb to gift it to that little freeloader of yours.
If even a gold digger can have it, why can’t my friend try their luck? Laurens eyes narrowed, and her voice dripped with disdain.
Fine
Lets see who tires out first.
With that, she countered boldly, 1.5 million.
From Michaels suite, Bane grimly responded, 1.8 million ! 1-2 Bane was a master of poisons and an unrelenting force in the medical underground
He recognized the unparalleled value of the Celestial Nymphaea, Lauren, undeterred, raised the stakes
2.25 million
Bane gritted his teeth and barked back.
3 million ! Laurens temper flared.
4.5 million ! The escalating bids were so outrageous that they sparked a wave of murmurs and gasps among the attendees.
Bane snarled and threw out his final bid.
7.5 million! That was his absolute limit.
Beyond this, no matter how valuable the herb was, he refused to bleed himself dry over it.
Lauren seethed, ready to retaliate once more.
I wont lose! Not when this is for Dr. Baldwin- But before she could speak, Kingsley gently caught her hand.
Ms. Rhodes
Lauren shot him a defiant look.
Dr. Baldwin, don’t stop me! I refuse to let Michael win today! Kingsley sighed, his voice calm but firm. I’m not stopping you.
I just think its time for me to handle this.
Lauren froze, her anger melting into confusion, while Francesca looked equally bewildered
Kingsley leaned back in his seat and calmly announced, 12 million! The hall fell into complete silence, and even Elsie found herself stunned.
As an auction host, Elsie was fully aware that the Celestial Nymphaea could not possibly fetch such a high price
Even so, she still asked symbolically, 12 million dollars! Are there any other bids? If not, the Celestial Nymphaea will go to Mr. Baldwin ! Elsie could barely contain her excitement, knowing well the astronomical figure was unbeatable. Just then, a mocking, voice cut through the air, ruining the moment.
I bid 12.3 million ! A wave of gasps and murmurs swept through the crowd.
Everyone realized someone deliberately tried to stir up trouble for those in The Vault.
In Michaels private suite, Bane let out a sinister laugh.
Serves them right
If I can’t have this precious item, that boy wont get it either.
Michael sneered.
I figured Finley wouldnt stay quiet for long.
With him stirring up trouble, Kingsley will have to bleed money if he wants to win this.
The curtain to Finleys box was dramatically pulled aside as he revealed himself, challenging Kingsley arrogantly.
He declared, Kingsley, I’ll stick my nose in everything you want tonight.
I’ll show you what happens when you mess with someone who has real money! His bold attitude immediately drew cheers from other wealthy heirs in the crowd.
Mr. Moore is the man !! Only a man as rich as Mr. Moore can do whatever he likes! Mr. Moore can spend as much as he wants without batting an eye! The flattery made Finley even more full of himself
He cackled as he yelled again, Come on, Kingsley! Lets see if youve got what it takes to keep up with me
I’ll make sure you go bankrupt trying to compete ! Meanwhile, Kingsleys expression remained calm and composed in The Vault, completely unfazed by the theatrics.
Francesca seethed with frustration.
Finley is clearly out to mess with Kingsley on purpose! Lauren gritted her teeth, deliberating for a moment
Dr. Baldwin, just place the next bid
I’ll back you with every penny I have well fight that idiot to the end.
Francesca nodded furiously
Take mine too! Whatever it takes ! Kingsley smiled.
don’t worry about it.
Hes just a clown.
I can handle this.
Without hesitation, he called out a new bid
13.5 million ! Elsies legs felt weak as she processed the staggering number
Neither she nor the auction house had ever anticipated such a jaw dropping price.
The Celestial Nymphaea was stealing # the spotlight even more than the evenings final showcase item
Finley let out a cold laugh, already prepared to escalate further.
Yet, before he could speak, a frigid voice echoed from another booth.
A pathetic leech who lives off women has the guts to bid 13.5 million ? Fine, I’ll play along.
I bid 13.5 million and 100 dollars! For a brief moment, the room fell silent in shock.
Then, an explosion of laughter and chatter overtook the venu Even Harveys stepping in to stir the pot now! Just how much hate has The Vaults VIP guest attracted tonight? Getting Michael, Harvey, and
Finley three of the biggest egos in the room to gang up on him? The Vaults guest might lose, but at least hes losing in style
And Harveys move only adding a hundred bucks? Thats downright petty! But hey, that poor guy shouldve known better than to cross heirs who play with money like its a game.
Finley laughed out loud.
Mr. Weller, I love how you bid ! When it comes to being shameless, you’re truly in a league of your own! Michael chimed in with a booming laugh.
Harvey, you really know your way around an auction
Im impressed! In his private box, Harveys face twisted into a malicious grin as he listened to Finley and Michaels words.
His sole purpose was to destroy Kingsley, and he did not care if it meant temporarily aligning with Finley. Hannah cast a cold glance his way.
Do you really find this amusing? Why wouldnt I? Harvey spat venomously.
After all the times Kingsley has messed with me, don’t I deserve to make him suffer a little ? Hannah shook her head disapprovingly.
Im not talking about you bidding its an auction, after all, and everyone has the right to compete fairly.
