Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 449

“… Alright. I’ll concede to Mr. Wood and… Mrs. Wood,” Aurum answered.

Aurum knew how to evaluate the situation.

He would have to spend close to three billion dollars, and he would even make an enemy out of Shawn. No matter what, it was not worth it.

He would lose too much!

The auctioneer said, “Alright! Mr. Wood has put in a 2.8 billion dollar bid! Is anyone going to bid anything higher? Then, I’ll formally announce that a deal has been made for the Heart of the Sea! Mr. Wood has won the bid!”

That was met with a lot of applause that did not stop.

When she needed money, Shawn acted so stingy and petty, not giving it to her. She had been forced to pick up trash and recyclables.
