Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks by Caspian Wood

My Billionaire Family 244

Besides the shock among the journalists and media friends present, the five executives and all the business leaders there were equally amazed. Harold quickly asked Joseph, "What's going on? Wasn't Duskson supposed to be exclusive to you? Looks like he's signed with multiple firms." Joseph was about to explode, veins bulging on his forehead. He cursed, "Damn Duskson if he dares play me like this, he's asking for trouble!"

In this situation, there was no way Joseph would give up without a fight. He could only hope the designs from the other two companies weren't as good as his.

Dora stared at the big screen. She knew Cherise had a plan, but she kept quiet since she didn't know the details. She wouldn't engage in a fight she couldn't win, so she quietly observed how things would unfold. Seeing the three proposals bearing the same designer's name, Nolan raised an eyebrow and said, "This Clusia place is quite fascinating."

In Leach Group, Andy exchanged a glance with Sean and said, "It looks like the Leach Group is just here for the ride mostly."

Sean let out a light chuckle and said, "Things have changed since Jacob took over at the Leach family. But don't rush, take it slow. You've done great so far and one day, the Leach Group will rise again."

Half an hour later, five executives finished analyzing and reviewing the proposals, and the host came on stage with the notary staff.

The host said, "Esteemed guests, our chief officers have finished analyzing the proposals submitted by the various companies.

"The bidding for the Agrieviel plot is being fully supervised by the Betrico Notary Office, streamed live to the public, ensuring fair and just results.

"Next, the head of the Betrico Notary Office will publicly announce the first-round results."

Apart from Joseph, who seemed tense as he clenched his fist, representatives from other companies appeared calm.

The head of the Notary Office stood at the microphone and opened the evaluation list in his hand. He said, "The companies that passed the first round are GlobalVision Group, Umberdon Enterprises, Syphonea Group, and Regalflow Group. Congratulations!" As Andy and Sean expected, the Leach Group was not selected.

Joseph breathed a sigh of relief. Making it to the second round at least proved that Duskson's design proposal was recognized. It was all about the second round now. He had to win it no matter what.

Next, the second sound was up as the host announced the auction participants.

The auctioneer said, "Ladies and gentlemen, good day! The four companies' proposals have all passed the review for the first round. Now, I'll guide you through the bidding for the second round.

"Everyone understands the importance of the Agrieviel plot. It covers over 770 thousand square feet, the equivalent of ten standard football fields. Our starting bid is 1 billion dollars. Alright, let's start the bidding."

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, Joseph raised his paddle and said, "1.3 billion from Regalflow Group."
