Chapter 2539
Companies that received the message had gathered for the final announcement of the results. They all wanted to see who would ultimately acquire Riddle Corporation's NandoCorp.
Of course, news in the industry spread easily, and everyone was here to see whether Nicole or Harvey was the winner.
After all, regardless of who won, it would add a new story for San Joto's elite circles to talk about.
People at the auction venue chatted and speculated in small groups. Most believed that Harvey would likely secure the NandoCorp. They also speculated what Nicole would do after losing the branch.
"Ah, here she comes," someone whispered as they spotted Nicole. Those who had been gossiping just moments ago immediately fell silent and greeted her with polite smiles.
Nicole, naturally aware of what they were thinking, cast a cool gaze at the crowd before making her way to her seat.
Once seated, beside her, Lulu whispered, "Are all these people just here for the spectacle?"
"Most likely." Nicole seemed indifferent. It was clear that most of them were here for that reason.
"They need to get a life." Lulu rolled her eyes. "What does it matter to them who gets it?"
"Curiosity is human nature," Nicole replied calmly.
Lulu pursed her lips but had to admit that Nicole was right.
"He's here!" someone in the crowd suddenly exclaimed, sounding quite surprised.
Nicole initially thought it was Harvey and did not bother looking up. She continued to flip through the documents, pondering what she would do if the auction did not go her way. After all, she could not allow NandoCorp to fall into Harvey's hands.
