Liliana finally made a move. Her bid left everyone in the room in awe. However, Klaus wasn't surprised at all. He was actually looking forward to this.
"Let the game begin," he murmured.

"Fifty-one million!"
"Fifty-one and a half million!"
"Fifty million seven hundred fifty thousand!"
The guests called out their bids loudly, but their voices quickly faded when Jonathan raised his paddle.
"Eighty million!" he proclaimed boldly.
"Wow! $80 million! A fantastic bid! Who can bid higher!" Julia appeared excited.
A woman in a white gown shouted, "Eighty-five million!"
Isabella didn't want to be left out of this competition.
