The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1319

Chapter 1319 A Trap Set by Wynter 

“Tell Ms. Yates to raise our bid. How dare that ignorant girl challenge the Wrays in a price war? She needs to be taught a lesson!” members of the Wray family urged. 

According to the long–standing rules, every bidder would start with just two silver coins. With more allies, they could amass a greater number of silver coins. 

Aside from the Whitman and Quinnell families, Wynter merely had the support of six families. In stark contrast, Yvette had the backing of at least 16 families. It was clear that Wynter lagged significantly behind Yvette in coin count. 

For the first time in her life, Yvette felt a deep sense of satisfaction. Casting a gloating glance at Wynter, she raised her bid paddle and stated, “I’ll be adding 16 silver coins.” 

Yvette firmly believed that Wynter would be despondent by her high bid. With five more items left to bid on, Wynter would be left with only two silver coins if she continued. Meanwhile, Yvette would remain with 18 silver coins. Wynter didn’t stand a chance against her! 

Should Wynter choose not to bid further, she would have to discard two silver coins for every unsold item. Ultimately, Yvette’s coin count would remain higher than hers. 

It was apparent that Yvette was off to a great start, and she couldn’t wait to witness Wynter’s downfall. 

*16 silver coins going once, going twice… Ms. Quinnell, would you like to make a higher bid?” Reggie questioned. 

Though Wynter wanted to raise her bid, she couldn’t afford to. After all, the rules stated that each bidder was required to possess at least two silver coins for the minimum bid. 

Sitting from a distance, Kenton was visibly pleased with her discomposure. 

“First item sold with 16 coins!” Reggie announced as the final bid was sealed with a resounding thump. 

As the waitresses went around collecting the payments, the number of silver coins on each auction table diminished. They gathered payment for just one family from Wynter’s side while collecting from six families on Yvette’s side. 

True to Yvette’s estimation, she retained 18 silver coins whereas Wynter was left with 16 silver coins. 

At that moment, Reggie announced the bidding for the second item–a bucket of pasta, starting at two silver coins. 

“This represents a project from the manufacturing industry. It’ll be a while before we see any financial returns,” someone hurriedly explained, fearing that Wynter might bid on it. 

Yvette and her associates didn’t seem interested in the auction item as well and simply observed Wynter’s reaction. 

When Wynter raised her bid paddle, Yvette instinctively readied to counter with a double bid. However, she quickly held back upon meeting Kenton’s glance. 

“Let her waste her coins on something unprofitable. We can just sit back and watch the show.” Kenton smirked. 

Those stubborn conservatives could cling to the outdated trends all they wanted. Kenton doubted that they could make any significant earnings, let alone achieve a profitable rate. 

“Is that the only bid? Two silver coins, going once, going twice… Sold!” Reggie declared. Though Wynter successfully secured the second auction item, her associates were left disheartened.
