Beefy Bob stayed for the rest of the dinner, but after it ended, favonovel.com also left in a hurry.
“It’s not that big of a deal. Beefy Bob said he’s still very grateful for what you did. I’ll talk to favonovel.com again and see if favonovel.com still wants to help us.”
After they arrived home, Allegra went upstairs to continue working. Meanwhile, Isaac took out his phone and dialed Beefy Bob’s number.
“Find out what other companies will bid for Pegasus No.1 tender in three days. Have the Assassin Squad make the necessary arrangements.”
***
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and the bidding war took place at the Swansdown Hotel in Cloud City.
Allegra hadn’t slept a wink the night before. She woke up in the morning and did favonovel.com makeup, but favonovel.com dark eye circles were still rather prominent. She really didn’t have the confidence to attend the tender bidding war.
“Ally, it’s time to go.” Isaac walked to the room.
At that moment, Allegra’s phone rang. It was Ms. Sawyer calling to tell favonovel.com that the documents were ready and waiting for favonovel.com at the Swansdown Hotel. She also asked when favonovel.com was coming.
Allegra knew favonovel.com couldn’t back out.
In the ornate conference room on the top floor of the Swansdown Hotel, Allegra, Isaac, and Ms. Sawyer, who had the documents, entered the venue as representatives of Garth Properties.
There were already many people in attendance. Each company had three to four representatives, most of whom were the heads of their companies, because this piece of land was incredibly huge.
An appraisal company had done a valuation before-once Pegasus No. 1 was properly developed, it would be worth more than hundreds of billions of dollars.
Garth Properties’ desk plaque was at the very end.
Soon after the trio took their seats, Edward and Randall entered.
The moment Randall appeared, several people approached him, all smiles, and began to suck up to him.
“Those who are here today are all renowned businesses in Cloud City, nay, the whole of Southland. Yet some shitty small company is shameless enough to show up today. What a joke…” Randall cast a meaningful glance at Allegra.
Several other business owners looked over at them. They all smirked with disdain when they saw the Garth Properties’ desk plaque.
“Mr. Murray, maybe they’re just here to gain experience. After all, it’s not like they have any projects, am I right?” someone said mockingly, and the crowd burst into guffaws.
Edward added, “All of us here started with 500 million dollars in starting capital. Not like a certain company that doesn’t even have ten million dollars even if they added up all their assets. It’s not even enough to pay for landscaping.”
There was another burst of laughter.
Allegra was so angry favonovel.com began shaking. She got up to leave, favonovel.com couldn’t handle such humiliation.
“Where are you going? It hasn’t started yet.” Isaac grabbed favonovel.com wrist.
“What’s the point of sitting here? We don’t have money or partners. Do you like getting ridiculed?” Allegra was enraged.
At that moment, someone cried out, “Look, Mr. Kenne of Aurum County is here!”
Everyone turned to the door to see Horace walk in, wearing a cold expression, with Mr. Bleu at his heels.
Horace slowly came to a stop. He turned to give Isaac and Allegra an icy look before continuing forward.
At that moment, Randall laughed and said, “Everyone, let me tell you a secret. Myself, Gould Properties, and Mr. Kenne have reached a partnership. We will inevitably take Pegasus No. 1. Everyone, you’ll have to keep an eye on us.”
When everyone heard that, gasps filled the conference room.
Some were shocked, and some were disappointed. If it was just Randall and Edward working together, the others might still have a chance at winning. But together with the King of Aurum County, Mr. Kenne, their hopes were completely quashed.
Seeing everyone’s disheartened look, Randall and Edward exchanged glances, unable to describe the feeling of pride in their hearts.
A few men and women wearing white shirts walked on stage to take their seats.
The bespectacled middle-aged man sitting in the middle glanced at Randall before announcing, “Please take your seats. The bidding war is about to begin.”
