Chapter 95

The atmosphere at the auction was tense yet electric.

Projected onto the large screen was a detailed map and description of the Eastborough land, capturing everyone's attention in an instant.

The auctioneer's voice resonated through the room: "Next, we will auction the highlight of this event-the Eastborough property. This land is situated in a prime location with immense potential for future development. The starting bid is one billion dollars, with minimum increments of ten million. I invite all bidders to make their offers enthusiastically!"

Everyone knew that acquiring this land would be like owning a goose that lays golden eggs.

Ethan was the first to raise his paddle, his voice steady and commanding, "One billion five hundred million."

His gaze was firm. As a representative of the Linwood family, he was determined to win this bid. Securing this property would not only expand the Linwood Group's business empire but also elevate their status in the Cresthaven commercial hub.

Before Ethan's words had even settled, Brian countered confidently, "One billion one hundred million."

Brian, clad in a dark suit with impeccably styled hair, was no less ambitious.

With these two setting the pace, the bidding quickly escalated, the atmosphere in the hall taut like a drawn bowstring, poised to unleash.

Some smaller families and businesses, realizing they were outmatched, could only shake their heads in resignation, relegated to being mere spectators as the corporate titans clashed.

Soon, the price surged to two billion, and the number of active bidders dwindled.
