Chapter 695 I Have To Win

It

“We will begin the bidding for the championship piece by Ms. Aurora Bright at $1 million.”

As soon as the announcement echoed, the room went still.

Haven let out a small, mocking chuckle.

So, this was Aurora’s masterpiece? She had expected something more. To her surprise, the starting price was the same as

hers.

What amused her even more–no one placed a bid.

Just as that thought crossed her mind, a voice rang out, loud and clear. “$2 million!”

Haven’s smile froze on her lips.

In the blink of an eye, the room burst to life with bids.

“$3 million!”

“$4 million!”

“$5 million!”

“$7 million!”

“$8 million!”

Haven struggled to keep her expression steady.

Her painting had only sold for five million. Now, Aurora’s piece was already at eight million.

And the real competition hadn’t even started.

The auctioneer’s voice cut through the murmurs. “$8 million going once!”

Haven took a deep breath, forcing herself to stay calm. It was just eight million. Nothing to fuss about.

Then came a voice that silenced the room. “$10 million!”

Gasps echoed all around.

“Did it just jump to $10 million?”

“Who made that bid?”

Haven turned toward Aurora, stunned. The man beside her had raised his paddle.

She had no idea who he was, but his bold move left her speechless.

Chapter 6951 Have To Win It

Linsey was equally shocked. She looked at Gorman, eyes wide. “Why did you raise it so high?”

Gorman’s voice was firm. “I have to win it. I know how much this means to you. Better we keep it than lose it to someone

else.”

Linsey’s gaze softened, but her voice was unsure. “Still, $10 million is no small-

Before she could finish, a familiar voice cut in. “$15 million.”

Linsey turned sharply. Collin stood with his paddle raised, eyes fixed on the piece on stage.

In his deep, steady gaze, she saw something stronger than Gorman’s resolve–an unshakable determination. He wanted

that piece badly.

Linsey’s breath caught. She didn’t understand what Collin was thinking.

But she wasn’t the only one shocked.

“Mr. Riley is bidding too?”

“Of course! Aurora’s design is one of a kind.”

“But $15 million? That’s steep!”

“Come on. When you love something, price doesn’t matter! And it’s not like Mr. Riley is short on cash.”

“Wait… Isn’t that Mr. Green next to Aurora? So, they really know each other?”

Meanwhile, Haven was in complete disbelief.

She never imagined Collin would bid on Aurora’s piece–and personally, at that. His eagerness was crystal clear.

“Collin, you…” Haven began, unable to hold back.

“$20 million,” Gorman called out, raising his paddle once more.

The crowd was stunned silent.

Then Collin replied, cool and calm, “$30 million.”

Gorman didn’t flinch. “$40 million.”

Linsey’s brows pulled together. It wasn’t about the artwork anymore. Now, it was about something else entirely–neither

of them wanted to lose.
