"Mrs. Collins, you might not get it, but we Murphys have to nail this piece of land today."
"So what?" Louisa couldn't care less about whether they got it or not; she just walked right past them.
The four security guards at the entrance recognized Kenneth and Louisa, bending over backwards to welcome them: "Mr. Collins, Mrs. Collins, welcome! Come on in."
"Has the founder of QY arrived?" Louisa asked coolly.
"She hasn't arrived yet, but I'll send someone to let you know as soon as she does."
They've been to these auctions a bunch of times. The security guards all knew Arabella, the young founder of QY.
"Alright." Louisa, arm in arm with her husband, went in.
"Mrs. Collins seems to have a bee in her bonnet about us. She's always so sharp-tongued," Olga grumbled, watching Louisa's retreating figure.
Even though the Collins did have money, the gap between them and the Murphys wasn't small. Louisa always talked down to the Murphys, making them feel pretty damn small.
"She can afford to be, so once we get in there, you better be on your best behavior. Try to get on their good side. If we score this land, we'll be rubbing elbows with them quite a lot."
"Alright." Olga watched Louisa walk away, thinking, How the hell did she get so lucky to marry a top dog?
Just then, a car pulled up nearby.
A stern-faced, impressive man got out, and Yolanda couldn't take her eyes off him.
What a hunk!
