Chapter 154

CHAPTER 154 Jacob wanted everyone from the family gone from the villa by the time the auction started, but no one in his family listened to him anymore. They weren’t directly scolding him, but they weren’t smiling, either.

By the time the auction started, Jacob and his sons were seated next to the auctioneer they had hired, while the rest of the family was standing at the foyer.

What Jacob didn’t like was that both Langdon Campbell and David Bonsbell were also present among the buyers, and they hadn’t said a word to him about their interest in the villa. Had they told him, he would have sold the villa in private instead of doing this humiliating thing, where he had to sell this in front of the people he owed money, including Jane’s dad, Mike.

Like vultures, they waited patiently. Jacob hoped at least Mike would come and talk to him, but he didn’t.

Arlo Campbell was also there, but he was here only to watch. Rebecca wasn’t present in the villa, so he was slightly disappointed. Artur Bonsbell sat not far from Arlo, and he seemed slightly anxious. He wouldn’t have come if his father hadn’t forced him.

The auctioneer greeted everyone and explained the villa’s features as best as possible, but he was known for overselling the property, which was also why Jacob hired him.

The auction soon started.

You don’t know what you’re missing. Mark my words. Whoever buys this villa can have a Wimbledon champion in their descendants.” Again, some people laughed. “Don’t laugh among yourselves, sirs. Raise the bar, so Mr. Jacob can also laugh together,” the auctioneer said. A random person raised the bid to 210 million. Brandon raised it to 220, and Laurel immediately
