Chapter 255 - Grandfather meets Scott
The starting price set by auctioneer is one million dollars.
"One million fifty thousand dollars" Maria bided.
"Two million" Raymond shouted and winked at Scott.
"Two million twenty five thousand dollars" other person bided.
"Three million" Maria shouted.
"Four million" Raymond smirked.
"Eight million" Edward Wright bided while Maria and Elder Valdez frowned.
Jeff and Rick narrowed their eyes. Eight million is too much...
"Sixteen millions" Scott bided and looked mockingly ay him.
Maria sighed in relief. She knew that Scott is doing this for Jean. Rather than securing the watch in her father’s vault it is better to give it to Jean..
"Twenty million" Raymond shouted and smirked at Scott. He is determined to give it to Jean by himself.
Jeff chuckled and nudged Enrick "Bro, best friends are fighting for themselves. The irony here is the watch will ultimately gifted to Jean"
Jeff chuckled again and nodded. "But my mom there will be fuming in rage" he knows why his mother and grandfather are doing here. It is solely for watch.
"Forty million" Elder Valdez bided by himself.
Edward scoffed and looked at old man. He didn’t understand why a Valdez is interested in materialistic things. If it is books or something it is not a big surprise but watch why??
"Eighty million" he shouted and smirked.
Raymond rolled his eyes, this is too much but for his sister he is even ready to spend one billion dollars without hesitation.
The biding reached one billion dollars. Edward, Raymond and Elder Valdez are competing against Scott. But at last Scott increased it to twenty folds and it became one billion. Even before others could come back to their senses from the shock the count down was ended and Scott won it.
Before the second half of auction starts, there is thirty minutes break .
"Young man, I will pay two times higher than the bid, will you give me the watch" Elder Valdez who is too desperate came to him.
"Sir, please forgive me but I can’t comply with your request. This watch is so special to my fiancée. It once belonged to her deceased mother" Scott smiled apologetically.
"Oh....its fine. This watch was favorite of my deceased daughter. It’s okay...you really dote on your fiancée" he smiled genuinely.
"She is my life sir. That is the reason I am too persistent about this" Scott smiled. Raymond is sulking sadly. If he was not shocked by Scott’s sudden bid he would have bought it by himself.
"Young man, your friend won the bid against you. Are you mad at him" Elder Valdez is not a talker but somehow he is fascinated about this group.
Nathan who is listening to them laughed "Sir, they are biding against each other but the person who will be receiving it is same"
After listening to the heart warming story Elder Valdez laughed heartily. "You all are so impressive it’s been too long I saw youngsters like you" he patted Scott’s shoulder and went back.
Little they knew that they are talking about same woman. Maria sighed in relief that her father didn’t feel offended and moreover he even started to like his grandson in law. But what caught her attention is how did her sister Sophia got her hand on this watch....it is quite mysterious.
The next piece is the necklace. After the intense fight between Edward, Raymond and Scott Raymond won the bid. Scott let go of it willingly and decided to give a other necklace to his twin sister.
Edward fumed with rage. Scott and Raymond messed up with his mind with their rapid bids. They bid their prices very swiftly that he couldn’t even comprehend what was happening when Scott suddenly stopped biding.
Even before he could open his mouth and shout the price the count down was finished and Raymond won it. Now he should look for another priceless gift for his little sister to pacify her anger.
Couple rings are won by Scott. Jeff, Nathan and Raymond tried really hard to out run Scott but he is too persistent to win it for Jean.
Jeff is little envious of Scott. He has been so desperate to win the rings but again because of Scott he lost it. He never expected this cold and aloof person to love Jean this much....but he mysteriously felt happy for her.
After the auction got completed Scott went back to mansion. Jean is sleeping peacefully even without a slightest hint of how much he had done for her. Without his awareness he met his wife’s maternal family, even without trying he was able to gain good impression from her grandfather.
Though Jeff is not aware that Jean is his blood sister he started to admire how much Scott love her. Without knowing to him, his own brother in law started to take him as a role model to love Iris and pamper her more and more.
Scott caressed her hair lovingly and stared at her for a while. After receiving a message from his pilot Scott carefully carried her into his private jet.
When she will open her eyes the very next day she will be sleeping in her most favorite house. The next days of her life would be unimaginably surprising and cozy for her.
