Chapter 288

Because it wasn’t convenient to speak loudly. Comelia moved in closer, so close that Marcus could

smell the faint scerit on her In the dark, when Cornelia got distracted, he sneakily picked up a strand of

her hair and sniffed it Her hair smelled good too Comelia was explaining something, but he wasn’t

listening Suddenly, he asked, “Comelia what shampoo do you use?

Comelia was taken aback President Hartley whats up with you?”

Marcus “Nothing”

Comelia. “The bidding for this antique painting has reached a hundred million, should we bid?”

Marcus “Not interested”

Comelia. “Okay”

For the next few dems. Marcus displayed no interest in bidding The anticipation grow as they

approached the final item of the day Unlike the previous items, the auction had kept the identity of the

last item a secret, creating curiosity among the quests As the item was unveiled and placed on the

stage, all eyes were fixed upon it

The host announced. “The starting price for this next item is unusually low, at just a hundred dollars I’m

sure you’re all wondering why our grand finale item is priced so affordably”

This statement heightened the quests anticipation even further Steven, growing impatient, suggested to

Marc it seems there’s nothing here tonight that catches our interest. Let’s go grab dinner

Lucas, seated in the middle, joined in, saying, “I agree. Lets make our way out”

Zaver chimed in turning to Marcus and asking. “What do you think, Marc?”

Without uttering a word, Marcus stood up from his seat

Comella picked up his coat, ready to follow him.

But she had only taken two steps when the host finally revealed the final item of the night “The final

item tonight is the only manuscript left behind by a famous cartoonist”

Cornelia stopped in her tracks. She turned back to look at the auction stage, the light shone on the

worn–out manuscript, it looked yellow and not well preserved.

“President Hartley, you go ahead, fi catch up soon Comelia handed him his coat, then turned back to

her orginal position. When the host announced the start of the bidding she raised her auction paddle.

The host, “A hundred dollars once. A thousand dollars once”

Every time Comelia raised her paddle, someone else would bid against her. The price quickly reached

ten thousand dollars

Comelia really wanted this manuscript, but her limit was fifty thousand dollars

When the price reached twenty thousand she realized that her competitor was Hayden Ruff sitting in

the VIP seat

Cornelia had a vague feeling that he wasn’t really interested in the manuscript, he just didn’t want her

to get it easily

Comelia kept raising her paddle, and so did Hayden. The price was about to break fifty thousand.

Comelia gritted her teeth and bid fifty–one thousand

Hayden Ruffs man bid fifty–two thousand

The host. “Fifty two thousand once

Cornelia thought about the money in her bank account. She would have to pay her mortgage every

month and she needed a large sum of money to renovate her house.

After much consideration, Cornelia had to give up

Just as the host was about to bang the gavel, someone raised a bid in time, interrupting the host’s

speech

The host was very excited to see this, “The bid has reached one million Someone is willing to pay one

million.”

One million!

This manuscript had immeasurable value to Cornelia, but for the business leaders present, it was just

another useless book

Comelia really wanted to know who had such unique taste and was willing to pay such a high price

Comelia scanned the room, but couldnt spot the bidder
