Hollywood Zenith

Chapter 212 Auction-1



Samuel could just avoid it; why would he have to listen to him? No matter how much he complained about him, he had to admit there was some truth to Apollo\'s reasoning.

While Samuel was grumbling about the system, the item\'s auction had already started.

Maia\'s Tiffany and co. Limited edition jewelry had an original value of 100,000 US dollars, but the bid price was set at 60,000 USD.

"90 thousand"

"100,000"

"100 thousand and 5 thousand"

"110 thousand"

Within seconds the bid price soared above the base price. Maia\'s popularity was no joke; people were hellbent on acquiring her item.

"Oh, sister Maia has quite a charm; just look at these young talents that are madly vying for you." On the side, Nicole took advantage of the trend and said sarcastically.

Maia didn\'t bother to respond to her blatant provocation, her real \'opponent\' Paige hadn\'t even spoken yet. Why was this kid so brazen?

She rolled her eyes to directly block Nicole\'s subsequent words.

Nicole felt like she was being treated like a kid again. It was substantial emotional damage and halted her further provocation. She began to watch the auction honestly to get her mind off things.

"130,000"

"140,000"

"160,000"

The price continued to soar and soon exceeded double the original value of the jewelry.

"200,000"

The second generation\'s enthusiasm kept increasing and soon reached 300,000 USD.

It was only then situation calmed down a bit. Douglas\'s item only made a premium of 300%. Now the premium of Maia\'s jewelry had exceeded 200%.

The power of top ladies was really terrifying.

Seeing that his daughter was so famous, Mr. Hopland was in a good mood. His being proud of her would be an understatement.

"310,000."

"310,000 once. Is there any increase in the price? Oh, that gentleman bid 31,500."

The second-generation bidding slowly decreased, and the enthusiasm returned to normal.

300,000 USD was enough to buy a small house; even if they spent a fortune, they would only get a few glances from Maia.

It would be demanding that she remember the bidder after the banquet.

"315,000, 315,000 for the first time."

"315,000, 315,000 for the second time."

Seeing that no one had increased the price, the auctioneer was ready to speed up and present the next lot.

"500,000." Samuel, who had been watching this whole time, suddenly raised his number.

"Ah, 500,000; Mr. Samuel quoted 500,000."

Maia slowly turned to her side and looked at Samuel incredulously with her surprised beautiful eyes. The expressions of the other three girls were hard to read. What did it mean? Did he really want to make a choice?

Paige gritted her silver teeth, looking at Maia with fierce eyes, and Iblis and Nicole were not much better.

Maia ignored the cannibalistic gazes of the three women and looked at Samuel intently, gazing at him with a savage look.

Samuel looked completely unaffected on the surface but was panicking in his heart.

" Fuck! I knew this would happen." He thought.

In the eyes of the guest, Samuel was not someone who would make rash decisions. Because of this, he again became the center of attention of the whole banquet.

On the other hand, Samuel was ice-cold, as if everything that just happened had nothing to do with him.

Handsome, noble temperament, the Rothschild consortium\'s heir was extraordinary!

On the other hand, Robert and Laura were taken aback by their son\'s actions.

" Did this brat secretly hook up with Hopland\'s daughter without telling them? But earlier, they could see he was apprehensive about interacting with her. What was going on?

Mr. Hopland laughed. His daughter was competent; she really outdid herself this time. If they wanted to be together, he had no objection to it. Power and social standings kept the world moving; by their union, Hopland would have a chance to ride the bandwagon to the top!

On the other hand, Samuel was staring fiercely at the auctioneer; why was he not announcing the results? What the hell is he waiting for a different ending?

Somehow, Samuel\'s thought reflected in his eyes, and as soon as the auctioneer met eyes with him, he understood his mistake. He hurriedly proceeded with the auction.

"500,000, the first time."

"500,000, the second time."

"500,000, the third time, Sold! Congratulations to Mr. Samuel for winning the bid!."

" Congratulations, my ass!" Samuel roared in his heart while looking at Maia\'s starry eyes.

While the look the other three gave him was like knives cutting through his flesh. The most annoyed was Paige, who was emitting strong killing intent.

But the strange thing was she was directing it at a weird place.

" What do you want when you keep aiming at my crotch?" Samuel shuddered.

"Sami, thank you," Maia said with a blushing face. It was enough to make any man crazy, but Samuel had other things to worry about.

"Huh," The other three women snorted coldly.

...

...

...

Regardless of what was going on between Samuel and the girls, the auction had to continue.

The next item was donated by Iblis. It was a famous painting in the Western oil category worth around 80,000 US dollars. It had a serene feeling; the mountains, clouds, and brush flow were well-defined.

The second generation on the scene found that they finally had some chance. They were sick of Samuel hogging all the attention. This time results would be different!

It was also beneficial that Samuel had already made his intentions clear by choosing Maia. They now had to compete with each other without worrying about him butting in.

It was regrettable that they had to give up Maia, but the other three were also favorite flowers in their circle, Iblis and Paige were top beauties with thousands of pursuers!

"Next is the oil painting "Void" provided by Miss Iblis Hanson with a reserve price of 50,000 USD." The auctioneer expected it to sell for a maximum of a couple of grand.

"500,000." A distinct voice bid directly.

Samuel declared calmly that it was the same manner, without a touch of emotions. The difference was that the second generation still needed to get a chance to bid. Samuel already raised the price to the top.

The people eyeing the painting were dazed, \'fuck, Samuel, you bastard! Haven\'t you already chosen Maia? Is this supposed to be a game?\'

The second generation was dumbfounded, and even the four girls were dumbfounded. The three women who thought they were out of the game instantly regained their brilliance.

And Maia fell from the cloud of happiness. But she quickly regained herself; she couldn\'t be done like this.
