The Beginning Of All Sins novel (Olivia and Tyler) novel Chapter 411

The emcee looked at the crowd and announced, "400,000 dollars going twice. Do I hear a higher bid?"

Tyler leaned back in his chair, watching the stage calmly. It seemed obvious that no one else would bid.

The emcee thought the same. "400,000 dollars going thrice. Sol–"

Before she could finish, someone suddenly raised their bidding card. "420,000 dollars."

At that moment, everyone turned to see who it was. Tyler, along with Linda and Naomi, were shocked to see the new bidder.

Olivia turned her head and was surprised to see Claude. Her eyes widened, thinking she must be seeing things.

But Claude met everyone's gaze without flinching.

Tyler slowly turned his head and found Claude looking at him. He smiled faintly, acknowledging him from across the room.

Naomi hadn't noticed Claude earlier and was surprised he was interested in the same item. Her smile faded a bit as she frowned.

Meanwhile, Claude shifted his gaze from Tyler to Olivia. Olivia clenched her hand, sensing tension in the air.

Then, Tyler turned away and raised his own bidding card. "450,000 dollars."
