Chapter 62 Auctioning Off The Engagement To Kallum

The host took a while to understand what was happening, but finally he trembled as he picked up the gavel, and without calling out for final bids, he lightly hit the gavel and called out, "Sold!"

Sterling still hadn't realized he had fallen into a trap, or the fact that he could very well lose his inheritance because of this.

His assistant pulled a black face and said, "I will report everything that happened to the boss in full detail!"

Sterling was still angry, so he glowered angrily at the assistant and whispered clearly to him, "What's the hurry? So above ground will be luxury bungalows overlooking the lake, but underground will be gambling dens! We won't lose anything!"

The assistant still didn't look good after he heard this. "But this land is only worth around 2 billion, and you've bought it at twice the price - the boss will be very disappointed in you!"

A very real murderous glint flashed in Sterling's eyes as he thought to himself, I can't have this guy around me! Besides, I'm the Wolford family's heir, why should I be subject to such control everywhere I go?

Kallum was still laughing and talking to Calista as if he hadn't seen what was happening on this side, but the people seated near to Sterling were as tense as a bowstring. All the guests couldn't wait to hide themselves from this murderous air, in case they unintentionally became a new target of the Wolfords.

The host already got ready to migrate to another country.

Only Kallum sat there like nothing had happened, as if the one who had pushed Sterling into a trap wasn't him - he was the real aristocrat who didn't have to be bothered by the Wolfords.

The woman next to him was definitely no ordinary human being either - under such frightening tension, she was able to smile. The smile on this icy beauty was indeed breathtaking, but this was not the time to appreciate beauty.

Sterling really wanted to puke blood now. How was he so rash earlier? 4.8 billion for a piece of land - this was the worst decision he had ever made in his life!

Under this terribly tense atmosphere, all the remaining items on auction were sold quickly at low prices, and some sellers even took back their items and decided not to auction them anymore.

After the auction was done, the host started the last segment of the night.
