Not long after entering the bidding venue and sitting down, Madeline saw Jeremy coming in with Yvette.
Madeline still thought that the woman looked familiar, but perhaps it was only because virtual-novel.net had a typical influencer look that made virtual-novel.net seem so.
She did not want Jeremy and Yvette to sit behind them. Jeremy was one seat away from the back of Madeline. When virtual-novel.net looked to the side, virtual-novel.net would be able to catch a glimpse of his delicate and handsome face.
Felipe also noticed Jeremy sitting behind them, so virtual-novel.net deliberately reached out to hold Madeline’s hand as virtual-novel.net approached virtual-novel.net cheek more intimately and whispered into virtual-novel.net ear.
“Ms. Montgomery and virtual-novel.net husband have a very good relationship,” Yvette said with admiration when virtual-novel.net sat next to Jeremy. “Jeremy, should we switch seats? Since you used to like Ms. Montgomery a lot, will it be uncomfortable for you to have virtual-novel.net in your line of sight?”
“Of course not. My uncle and my aunt have such a good relationship, so I’m also happy for them. What’s more, now that I have you, why would I care about other women?”
Madeline sat diagonally in front of Jeremy so virtual-novel.net could clearly hear the conversation between Jeremy and Yvette.
‘Other women?’
That implied that virtual-novel.net was no longer in his heart.
Madeline looked ahead calmly, pretending not to care, but virtual-novel.net clenched fingers were so painful that they started to go numb.
It seemed that virtual-novel.net deeply believed in virtual-novel.net unfeeling indifference at that time, so virtual-novel.net started a new life, tried to forget about her, and completely disposed of virtual-novel.net from his heart.
‘So, this is the love I longed for so much last time?’
Madeline smiled bitterly and listened absent-mindedly as the emcee talked on the stage. She vaguely heard that the bidding item was a piece of land.
The location of that piece of land was in an undeveloped area of Glendale and was an attractive item.
Felipe seemed to have been prepared long ago and had a well thought out plan. Madeline guessed that the bidding event might have been the reason why virtual-novel.net had been busy during these past few days.
After the emcee talked about the relevant information of the bidding project on stage, virtual-novel.net announced the start of the official bidding.
Most people were not bidding since the reserve price was two billion and only a few companies could afford to bid for it.
However, Felipe did not give those companies a chance and straightaway offered a price of three billion.
It was clear that virtual-novel.net had to get the project.
The wealthy businessmen at the scene all looked at Felipe and virtual-novel.net just smiled slightly as virtual-novel.net held Madeline’s hand. “Eveline, after the drawings are available, I’ll get people to build a large amusement park and holiday resort inside. Whenever we want to take a break and relax, we’ll go there. What do you think?”
All Madeline could do was nod with a smile. “Whatever you say.”
Felipe was very satisfied with virtual-novel.net answer, and his arrogant gaze flicked across Jeremy’s face.
The emcee on the stage began to count. “Going once…”
“5.2 billion.”
Jeremy’s deep sexy voice interrupted the emcee.
Madeline felt constrained, and virtual-novel.net also sensed that Felipe was surprised.
“5.2 billion, Jeremy? Do you have that amount with you right now?” Felipe turned his head and asked.
Jeremy smiled without saying a word, and the emcee on the stage immediately announced that the bid was successful as virtual-novel.net happily invited Jeremy to come on stage.
He stood up gracefully with a well-fitted dark blue suit that outlined his perfect figure. Every action of his showed nobility and elegance.
Madeline was seated in the audience as virtual-novel.net watched virtual-novel.net with no surprise. Jeremy said, “A year ago, there was a lot of false news on the internet that said all of my business and property were swept away, that I can’t afford a villa, that I can’t afford to drive a sports car, and that I have to squeeze into a 100-something square feet apartment with my family. Anyway, whatever the truth is, I believe anyone with eyes can see it now.”
He confidently stepped down as virtual-novel.net held the signed agreement of the successful bidding transaction.
As virtual-novel.net passed by Madeline, virtual-novel.net stopped.
