"Now, for the main event. Introducing participant number 30, Samantha Brooks." Mrs. Johnson said.
Samantha felt crying so hard.
Auntie, what do you mean by the main event!!
I was only a substitute for replacing your daughter!!!
Samantha calmed herself down and went to the stage. She was in a red dress below the knee that shows her long legs covered in fishnet tights. She only wore it on the backstage because Mrs. Johnson let her borrow it. Her dress was hugging her chest.
Her red dress complimented her red and fiery eyes and her loose hair giving her a mysterious aura. Men gasped at what they saw. They saw Samantha flipping her hair and standing beside Mrs. Johnson.
There was silence across the hall, and one could hear a pin drop with that silence. Samantha felt uncomfortable. She saw how people bid for the ladies earlier, and now, there was an eerie silence.
Then, a voice from the crowd shouted: "one hundred million dollars."
Then another voice sounded again: "one hundred and ten million dollars."
"one hundred and twenty million dollars."
"one hundred and fifty million dollars."
"one hundred and seventy-five million dollars."
"two hundred million dollars."
People shouted so loud and fast to bid for a date from Samantha. Samantha sighed in relief because she thought that she was going to embarrass herself by going here. The price continued to skyrocket until four hundred fifty million dollars.
Then a voice in the middle of the crowd said: "Five hundred million dollars."
All the men looked at the one who bid, and all of them squinted their eyes. It was the most notorious CEO in the line of business. Accused of sexual abuse and murder, but with money and power, he managed to hide the news.
Samantha did not know who he was, so she was glad that someone offered five hundred million dollars. Even Mrs. Johnsons did not believe it. The highest bid in the history of this auction was four hundred million dollars, and that was when a supermodel participated.
Mrs. Johnson did not dare meddle in the line of business, and because her husband is not here, he did not know the background of the one who bid five hundred million. She excitedly shouted: "Is there no one else going higher? Going Once, Going Twice. So--" before she could finish what she said, everyone heard a voice coming from the VIP room: "One billion dollars."
A billion!!!
Even one million is not easy to earn. Those who did win the bidding have status in the line of business, and a billion is so not easy to acquire. All the men looked st the VIP room, and murmurs were in the auction hall.
"Alex Walton bid one billion dollars!!"
Mrs. Johnson was excited about hearing the bidding price, but she did not dare take it. They were a subsidiary company of Walton Corp., and they were glad that Alex accepted them even if they are not as productive as the other companies. She planned to refuse the money previously later on. She put on a front and said: "Anyone going higher?"
Who is bold enough to go against the Devil?!
Are you trying to kill us?!
Many thoughts from the businessmen but they did not dare say it.
