Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 502

Everyone's eyes were focused on the stage. A moment later, a man with glasses walked up with a microphone in his hand.

"Welcome, everyone. I am the host of today's auction. How is everyone doing?"

"I'm fine!" Someone in the crowd shouted, which caused everyone else to laugh out loud.

The host smiled and continued, "That's great. The first item to be auctioned today is this ceramic vase from Auview. It was once owned by the king of Auview, and has a high historical value. The opening bid of this item will be ten million dollars, and the bid increment is five million dollars."

Everleigh and Selena looked at each other. They were certain that no one would waste their money to buy such a thing.

Before they could even say something, someone placed a bid.

However, only a few people were interested in it, so it was sold off at twenty million dollars.

The following few items were some simple items, and everyone was just placing bids for fun.

The highlight of the night was the piece of land.

Its area wasn't large, but it was located in the city center, a strategic location.

"This is the land title. The starting bid is set at two billion dollars, with a bid increment of one hundred million dollars." As soon as the host announced the bid price, all the guests gasped in astonishment.

Two billion dollars?

If all the bidders were to place a bid, wouldn't the price of the land be raised to a ridiculous amount?

Everleigh whispered to Ysabelle, "Ysabelle, how much money do you have?"

"I have enough." She had expected the price of the land to be high, as the organizers wanted the wealthiest families to compete amongst each other to offer the highest bid.

Annie took a look at the land title, and her eyes sparkled. She raised her sign and called, "Four billion."

"Wow..." Everyone exclaimed as they looked at her in surprise.

She was just too ruthless. She actually doubled the starting price in her first bid.

"Five billion."

"Six billion." Everleigh and Selena looked at Annie who was shouting her bid prices as if money meant nothing to her. It seemed like she was just calling out higher figures one after another, but everyone knew that it simply wasn't a joke.

"Seven billion."

However, Ysabelle was sipping her wine leisurely. She hadn't offered a bid price yet.

Her jet-black eyes looked especially sharp in the dark, which gave people a chilly feeling.

The price had been raised to ten billion dollars.

The host shouted loudly, "Ten billion dollars going once, ten billion dollars going twice, ten billion dollars going..."

"Thirteen billion," Ysabelle called out all of a sudden.

The audience was in an uproar again. They all looked at her, and saw Everleigh and Selena at the same time.

When Wilson saw Everleigh, his eyes flashed for a split second.

"Fourteen billion." Annie was already gritting her teeth and started getting nervous. She had only prepared ten billion dollars, and an extra four billion was a big deal for her.

Wilson gritted his teeth as well and called out, "Fifteen billion."

Upon hearing his voice, Ysabelle looked over at him. He was staring at Annie with a serious expression, as if he was afraid that she would raise the bid again.

Annie had already given up when Wilson offered fifteen billion dollars. She was downhearted. She no longer had to worry about the extra four billion dollars, and she could even save her ten billion.

Everleigh was incredibly surprised that the bid had been increased to fifteen billion dollars. Even a big truck couldn't carry so much cash.

Selena was shocked as well. She had seen such a huge figure in movie scripts, but had never expected to hear it in real life.

The host was also slightly astounded, but he managed to react quickly.
