Chapter 143

Moments ago, the sneering group had quickly turned on Zach, clinging to him with forced smiles.

Serena didn't even spare a glance at the huddled Zach as she walked out with Natalie.

Once in the elevator, Natalie reminded her, "Mr. Jansen is waiting for you downstairs. He already knows that Ms. Sarah is here too and hasn't taken offense. He's even booked a private room for the victory celebration. He seems certain this bid is his."

Howard probably assumed that Sarah didn't even qualify to bid. She was there just to make up the numbers, and since she hadn't caused any trouble, they didn't see a reason to hold it against her.
