Chapter 394 Auction After entering the private room with Joe, Charlotte found that there were not only the details of the item being auctioned on the large LCD screen in each private room, but also a beautiful young woman and a handsome young man waiting inside. Joe only glanced at them briefly before ordering them to leave. Charlotte didn’t care. After looking around, she found the private room where Derek was. “You just said that the private room was arranged according to the family’s arrangement, right?” Charlotte turned to look at Joe. Joe followed her gaze and looked at the private room downstairs. “Your cousin is not bad.” He was more than good. Charlotte asked about the rights to the private room in detail and found that if she wanted to enter the private room downstairs, the assets of Derek were at least on par with hers. However, Derek didn’t have any company on the surface. He only worked in Clinton Group.
Charlotte raised her eyebrows. It seemed that Derek was really good at hiding his strength. The auction soon began, and several items to warm the atmosphere were quickly auctioned off. Charlotte chose a special ball made of jade, which was quite interesting. Joe bought a few pink diamond jewelries and planned to give them to Anna. She noticed that Derek had bought a manor in the northeast of S country. Although this type of manor was not expensive, it was not a small amount.
Enter title… Soon, the island that Charlotte took a fancy to was seen. Just as Jack had mentioned before, this island had always been under the name of a noble family. However, that noble family needed money recently, so they decided to sell the island. After reading the detailed introduction of the island, Charlotte became more interested in it. The starting price of the island was 80 million dollars. After thinking for a while, Charlotte raised the price to 90 million dollars. “100 million dollars.” As soon as she bid, Derek took action in a private room downstairs. Charlotte frowned. She didn’t expect that Derek would be the first one to compete with her. Of course, they were not the only ones who had their eyes on the island. The auction price had risen to 230 million. Charlotte was confused. “Although this island is good, its value is not so high. It seems that everyone’s enthusiasm is a little excessive.” Sharon pressed his phone a few times and explained, “Erik just sent news that there might be a mine under the island. It’s just that the timing of this rumor is too coincidental, and it’s hard to say if it’s credible.” Charlotte understood that this kind of news might be deliberately released. Whether one believed it or not depended on the person. After thinking for a while, she raised the price to 240 million. Her attitude was so firm that many people who were skeptical of the news gave up bidding. Only Derek was still holding on.
“300 million.” Derek raised the price without hesitation. Charlotte raised her eyebrows. It seemed that her cousin’s family was much richer than she had imagined. Seeing that she didn’t bid again, Joe thought that she didn’t have enough money on hand, so he said, “Go ahead and bid. I’ll help you fix the gap.” Charlotte shook her head. “I’m not short of money. I just don’t think it’s necessary.” The current price was far beyond the value of this island. Unless there was a mine under the island, it was a sure-losing deal. “310 million.” While she was thinking, Joe made a bid without hesitation. “It’s hard to buy a lover’s happiness with a lot of money.” Charlotte had taken a fancy to this island from the very beginning. Even if the price was ten times higher, it was worth it. Charlotte looked at him speechlessly
