You won yourself two enemies
Logan had yet to complete his words when he heard a crisp sound of something. Subsequently, fluid began running down his nose. His nose had just been broken.“Shit, did you just punch me?” Logan cursed as he wiped his nose and looked at it.“That’s not all; you did more than that to me? Have you forgotten?” Julian asked, and just as Logan was about to lunge at him to take his revenge, Julian’s figure flashed.He appeared right behind him, and the next thing, the sound of a hard slap echoed. Logan felt like the world was spinning. Not to talk of the burning sensation the slap came with, as his face stung so bad now, he could feel his teeth had been ripped off from his gums and was now swimming in the pool of blood inside his mouth.In his life, he had never felt such pain before. He couldn't even touch Julian, as the punk had become too fast for him. Just now, in a fit of anger, he had swung his ankle backwards, thinking he would land a hit, but Julian's figure turned into an afteri
Settle things between us
“I guess I have won the bid then?” Jualin said and turned towards Mr Henry. “Do you still want to go on, or will you back out now?” He asked.Mr. Henry didn’t say anything but quietly sat down. He wasn’t on good terms with Julian either, so he didn’t feel obligated to answer him for now.“You can buy the land all you want, but you’ll still lose. I hope you know what you are doing!” He muttered to himself before looking away. “We have ourselves a winner then. Sold out for a hundred and seventy million.” The auctioneer said before walking down the stairs where his assistant was already waiting with a payment terminal to use to run the payment.Soon, both of them began to make their way towards Julian, and since he was around the front row, it became easy to access him.In fact, now, the auction had turned into something else—filled with excitement, as a show had just been put on for the audience to watch. People began to guess what it would be—if Julian's payment would decline or if i
Investigate him
Julian seriously wanted the land, even as he had no choice but to raise the bid. If the other party wanted a competition, then all he had to do was make them back away. As expected, Henry's face twisted into a grimace.He turned to look at Julian, his cold eyes conveying so much that he didn’t need the mouth to explain before he looked back to the auctioneer.“A hundred and thirty million!” He said through gritted teeth.Jualin smirked. He had nothing to lose. He wasn’t trying to build a company that depended on profits to make ends meet. Instead, he would be using his talent to make money.Besides he had over four hundred million in his account, and for that, he could actually keep going in. Just as Henry thought he had lost, Julian spoke.“A hundred and fifty million!” He increased the bid by another twenty million, causing multiple gasps to erupt from people’s lips. Julian wasn’t dressed in so many designers like people would; in fact, the air around him didn’t scream luxury, yet
Raising the stakes
Julian listened and watched carefully, so he was able to grab a thing or two. However, he had no interest in the lands that were listed, not until the one he had picked when he saw the flyer.He was looking to build a big clinic and make sure it had a big surrounding so maybe he could think of doing something else there in the future. Maybe like growing some rare herbs so he wouldn’t need to go about just to get them for treatments.“The next item is a 4000 by 5000 square ft!” The auctioneer called out again.The other land had been bought off at the rate of twelve million by a lady. She was strong and bold indeed; Julian took note of this and was very proud of her.He usually thought it was only men who participated in bidding, but today he has been proved wrong. “The starting price is going for fifteen million.” The auctioneer announced.Julain instinctively looked back as he hadn’t heard Logan, Damien, or Henry’s voice. They had not shown any interest in any land, which was surpri
The auction begins!
“What are you doing here?”While Julian and Mr. Gerald were seated and waiting for the event to start, someone walked in on them and grumbled.Julian and Mr. Gerald looked up to see who it was.“Logan?” Julian gasped, pretending to be surprised. “I never expected to see you here. Tell me, how is your family company doing? I heard ever since the Brown family cut off from partnering with you, you have been having a difficult to retain your place in the market.”He smiled and continued.“I should be asking you why you are here today. Or do you guys still have money to buy land even when you are managing?”Each of his words was deliberate and struck a nerve. Logan was hopping mad. He wanted to lunge at him and strangle him so hard that he would be dead instantly.However, he couldn't do that so he wouldn't tarnish his family’s image further. He wasn’t only here to buy a piece of land for his family but also wanted to find investors for his family company since he knew the place was also a
Gavel and lands
Ding! Ding! Mr. Gerald arrived by taxi minutes later and, upon reaching the door, immediately pressed the alarm button. As soon as he did, a sound blared through the speakers around the house, and shortly, Julian came to the door and opened it. “Mr. Gerald, you came,” Julian said. He had done preparing and had also cultivated for a short while, as he intended. “Yes Mr. Julian, I won’t want to be late when we have an important event to attend.” Mr. Gerald said while extending something out in his hands. He then added. “I got us some invites and also a flyer on the lands to be auctioned.” Julian didn’t hesitate. He collected it and went through it, seeing all the lands of different sizes, their location, and a few details. Though there was the starting price listed right below each one, he didn’t bother about it, as when it came to auction, prices varied on who had the last and highest bid. Of course, there was going to be competition in the auction, and Julian was already prepare
