The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 216

Chapter 216 Fight for Violet Wyvernroot

Alice was momentarily stunned and hesitated to raise her paddle to place a bid. She wasn't sure if adding another 20 million would secure the final price. Looking at the woman in Zone Two, it was clear that she was also interested in Tillamisa.

For a moment, Alice forgot about making any last-minute attempts.

The auctioneer had already announced the price of 300 million for the second time, and the audience remained silent.

Zachary, noticing Alice's bewilderment, nudged her. "Why aren't you bidding? Didn't you mention that your grandpa needs Tillamisa? Come on, raise your paddle!"

Alice jolted back to reality. "We can only afford to add 20 million at most. I didn't expect the bids to go this high today."

The auctioneer continued, "Tillamisa, 300 million, twice. Is there anyone else?"

Silence filled the room. Seeing Alice still hesitating, Zachary quickly took her hand, raised the paddle, and shouted, "Three hundred and ten million!"

Gasps echoed through the crowd. The woman in Zone Two shot an angry glance at Zachary, clearly furious that the price exceeded her budget.

Although she desperately wanted Tillamisa, it had reached her financial limit.

In the end, Zachary assisted Alice in winning the essential herb for 310 million.

She felt as if she were in a dream. After realizing that Zachary had helped her secure Tillamisa at that price, she excitedly grabbed his hand and said, "Thank you, Zachary!

"I honestly thought we wouldn't win the bid for Tillamisa, but you were so decisive!"

Zachary smiled. "Alice, your goals are my goals. There's no need to thank me. Our engagement ceremony is next weekend, so we'll be family soon. Why bother with thanks?

"I'm happy that we could get Tillamisa for your grandpa. As long as you're happy, I'll do anything for you."

Alice was visibly touched by his words, momentarily overwhelmed with emotion.

Zachary smiled again, saying, "With this Tillamisa, we can extend your grandpa's life by three to six months. He'll be thrilled. Plus, this will help you achieve what you want from the Miller Group, and your dreams will soon be a reality."

Upon hearing that, Alice kissed his cheek excitedly. "Zachary, you're so wonderful! I can't wait for our engagement ceremony next weekend! The wedding dress you chose last time has impressed many of my friends-they say it's stunning. "I'll make sure to look amazing on that day and be your most beautiful bride."

Seeing her so happy, Zachary felt thrilled. "I'll make our engagement the grandest event in Harmonfield!"
