Chapter 2207 The auctioneer was thrilled. Designer pieces often fetched high prices, and they had only expected 2 million at most for this piece.
Now, it was at a staggering 3 million and climbing.
Dylan then casually raised his bid to 5 million, causing a stir among the attendees.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEdwin, not to be outdone, immediately countered with 10 million.
Unfazed, Dylan casually offered 20 million.
Edwin, determined not to back down, was about to increase his bid again when Vanessa began to show signs of unease. Vanessa hoped Edwin would secure the bid for her, yet she was wary of Laura drawing too much attention. Just as she was about to tug at Edwin's arm, a new bid interrupted the scene.
“20 million and one dollar,” a female voice declared.
The crowd turned to identify the bidder, all surprised.
The room fell silent upon seeing the speaker.
It was Alexis Fowler, a rising star in the legal field and rapidly gaining a reputation comparable to her father, Waylen Fowler.
Alexis, seemingly having arrived during a break, stood in her formal attire. She gracefully walked towards the front row, the sound of her high heels echoing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEdwin looked up, acknowledging her.
“Alexis.” Alexis, with a smile, said, “I see you're with your girlfriend. | really like this piece. You wouldn't compete against me, right?” Edwin, familiar with Alexis’s ways of handling things, responded with slight irritation, “Of course not.” Alexis then turned to Vanessa with the same smile.
“Vanessa, you don’t mind, do you?” Vanessa, though a formidable woman herself, wouldn't dare oppose Alexis.
Miss Fowler here was known for her shrewdness, and in Duefron, it was common knowledge to avoid crossing her.
Successfully outbidding everyone, Alexis walked up to the stage to collect the necklace. She then approached Laura, delicately fastened the necklace around her neck, and chuckled at the stunned crowd, “It looks best on Laura!” With a wink at Edwin, she left an unspoken message hanging in the air.
Edwin could only roll his eyes in response to her playful gesture.
Alexis stood tall, beckoning, “Maria, bring the checkbook.” Her secretary, Maria, quickly obliged.
