Who is this man that just drove in?” voices asked with genuine confusion and interest.The questions multiplied as more people tried to identify the stranger. “What is going on? Who is he exactly?”Others joined the speculation with more direct inquiries. “Has anybody seen him before at previous exclusive events?”The crowd's curiosity was obvious as they tried to place this mysterious arrival. “Does anybody literally know who this person is or what family he represents?”Immediately, in response to these questions about David's identity, many people in the crowd shook their heads negatively, indicating they had no previous knowledge of him.

Hearing what Benjamin had just said about David's supposed schemes ending today, Elizabeth immediately nodded her head with fierce agreement and determination.“Yes, absolutely - I am not going to tolerate any more of this harassment and interference from David,” Elizabeth declared, her voice carrying conviction and anger. “This time, David will literally be brought down so hard that he hits the ground and never recovers!”Her tone showed she was ready to take decisive action. “I am going to make absolutely sure of that outcome today, no matter what it takes!”Elizabeth's expression revealed she believed this auction would be the final confrontation where she would definitively defeat David once and for all.However, before Elizabeth could finish her threatening statement and elaborate further on her plans to destroy David, something completely unexpected happened that stopped her words mid-sentence.That was when all of a sudden, seemingly out of nowhere, a stunningly beautiful woma

As soon as Elizabeth heard Benjamin's reassuring explanation about the mysterious bidder using intimidation tactics rather than possessing genuine unlimited resources, she nodded her head with renewed confidence.“Well, that makes perfect sense,” Elizabeth said with determination. “Since this is what that person is trying to do - just psychological manipulation - then I have absolutely nothing to worry about.”Her voice carried resolved commitment as she continued. “I am going to continue bidding aggressively and call his bluff, and we'll see how long his supposed unlimited resources actually last before they literally run completely dry.”Immediately upon hearing Elizabeth's renewed determination, Benjamin provided specific strategic guidance to maximize the psychological impact of her next bid.“Without wasting another second, you should place a dramatically higher bid - maybe jump straight to five million dollars,” Benjamin advised with tactical confidence. “That substantial incre
