Others present at the event started bidding as well. Those from Imperial City who were familiar with the two Ford sisters watched with curiosity, waiting to see which one would win. Occasionally, they joined in just to raise the bid, pushing the price up to 2.5 million.
Briena kept glancing at Natalie to see if she would bid further, only then deciding to raise her own bid. She was adamant about not letting Natalie win anything. Given Natalie's new company and financial situation, she was sure Natalie couldn't afford expensive items. And if Natalie bid on something cheaper, Briena would make sure to take it away.
Natalie raised her bid. "2.6 million."
"2.8 million," Briena countered immediately.
Natalie kept her expression calm and composed before bidding again, this time taking everyone by surprise. "3.5 million."
"Is she doing it on purpose?" Irene commented angrily. "She can clearly see that Briena wants it, but she won't back down."
