Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 460 The Bidding Begins

“Yes, he doesn’t love me,” Irene said with a bitter smile.

“Irene, if you continue to be like this, think about your parents. Don’t repeat the same mistakes. Worries flashed

through Brady’s eyes.

“Grandpa, it’s my problem. I shouldn’t be emotional. I was muddle-headed and wasn’t myself these past few

months”

“Then make changes. I have raised you for so many years, and you gave up just because of Manuel?” Brady’s eyes

were sharp like an

eagle’s.

“Grandpa, do you still trust me?” Irene looked at Brady without confidence.

“Of course. For the auction the day after tomorrow, I hope you can take out all you got and not let me down again,”

Brady sighed.

PineMist Island.

The banquet finally came to an end when they left. Ainsley asked the staff to go back first and come back to clean

up the next day.

She was already half drunk and almost couldn’t walk.

Serina was unwilling to leave, so she booked a suite room in the hotel. Lainey and Roman also booked a suite room.

Only Ainsley

insisted on leaving.

Manuel did not drive. Today, in order not to drink, he found many reasons.

Manuel ***the car. Ainsley was so excited, as if she was already drunk. She sat in the front passenger seat, turned

on the music player to play her favorite song, and hummed along.

“You seem to be very happy today.” The corners of Manuel’s **** rose.

Ainsley’s neck seemed unable to support her head, and her head shook back and forth. “Of course. Irene’s plot did

not succeed.”

She lowered the window and stretched out her head. A sharp cold wind blew past. Ainsley shivered, and her hair

fluttered in the wind.

This made Manuel worried. “Sit tight.”

The moment Ainsley sat back down, he immediately closed the window and locked it.

“What do you think of Miles?”

“Rational, gentle, careful, and observant. He’s a very good person.*

“Just a very good person?” Manuel raised an eyebrow.

Ainsley was dizzy. She suddenly smiled and said, “What? Are you afraid that Serina will like him?”

“After all, young girls like this kind of man.”

“Young girls? Are you saying that I’m not young anymore?” Ainsley closed her eyes. She probably did not even

know what she was

saying

Manuel was serious. “You are young and mature. You are not the kind of person who immature people will like.”

“Are you praising me or scolding me?”

“Of course, I am praising you.”

Along the way, Ainsley hurmmed songs, casually singing a few words, and sometimes, she would let out excited

laughter.

She was inexplicably excited, probably because of the alcohol.

When they arrived home, they got out of the car. Manuel was looking at her, but Ainsley was dizzy. When she was

about to fall to the ground, Manuel caught her.

“Who are you?” Ainsley pounced on Manuel and smelled.

Get Boyer

“You don’t recognize me?” Manuel rubbed her head.

Ainsley shook her head. She took a deep breath. “You smell so good!”

“Do you still remember who you are?” Manuel helped her up, afraid that she would accidentally fall.

Ainsley smiled brightly and grabbed Manuel’s clothes, refusing to let him go.

Manuel let her hold him. At that moment, Ainsley was as cute as a little girl.

“Of course, I am Ainsley.”

She hugged Manuel tightly and whispered.

“What are you doing?” A cold voice appeared behind them. Manuel turned around and saw that it was Matteo.

He was a little embarrassed and stretched out his hands, indicating that it was Ainsley who took the initiative. She is

drunk.”

“Rogue.” Matteo pulled Ainsley out.

He held Ainsley and left directly. Before leaving, he glared at Manuel fiercely.

Manuel looked at them innocently, but after they disappeared, Manuel’s eyes became depressed.

Aisy just now was really cute.

On the day of the bidding, at the Wade’s house.

Brady looked at Irene solemnly and said in a deep voice, “The bidding this time is very important. You can only

succeed, no failure.”

“I understand, Grandpa.”

A luxury car stopped at the door of the City Hall. A pair of high heels stepped out of the car. Irene was dressed in a

uniform and walked into the City Hall. Behind her were two assistants.

The people who came to participate in this bidding meeting were all big shots in the business world. There were

even a few people who rarely showed up to participate in this bidding meeting.

After all, the bidding this time was related to multinational cooperation. Winning the bidding was good for the

company’s reputation and could help establish its status in Seattle.

In order to win the bidding this time, Irene had made a lot of effort.

For example, she had asked her assistant to search for all kinds of information half a month ago and studied other

companies. She finally chose the best plan, just so that she could succeed at this bidding meeting.

Usually, most of the bids were signed with the Gage Group in the end. After all, the Gage Group was a leading

company in Seattle.

The Wade Group had also obtained several contracts because of the Gage Group in the past few months.

The conference hall was very big The companies that participated in the bidding had been selected. The companies

without strength could not even enter the door. Irene sat in the front row.

As expected, she saw Manuel sitting in the row before her, and the person beside him was Matteo.

Irene smiled bitterly. It turned out that they had already cooperated.

She had great confidence in the bidding this time.

Brady had been trying to look for the people in the City Hall for help these days but failed.

It could be imagined how seriously the higher-ups valued the bidding this time.

The first to bid was not a project but a piece of land.

“The bidding for the first piece of land begins. The starting bid is 8 million dollars,” the auctioneer said with a smile.

The first one to bid was a person in the back row, who directly called out 16 million dollars.

“No. 35 called out a bid of 16 million dollars. Okay, is there any more?”

The auctions held in the City Hall usually wouldn’t be added up bit by bit. Usually, the participants would have

investigated how much it was worth before ****and wouldn’t waste time.

The first plot of land directly belonged to No. 35.

After waiting for a few rounds, Irene finally awaited what she had expected.

At the same time, Matteo looked at Manuel with a smile, “Are you ready?”

“Sure. They have been waiting before the bidding starts. Just for this moment,” Manuel said coldly.

He had said that the matter of the Wade Group’s shares was just the beginning, and the real important time was

now.

“I can see that everyone wants to get the No. 3 project. Please get your tenders prepared. I will collect it in and

hand it in directly. Please wait patiently,” the auctioneer said.

The others had no objections. They had already been familiar with the process.

No one looked at their phones, so they didn’t know that a piece of news had become a trending topic the moment it

was released.

People were shocked by the news.
