A Superpowered Warrior in a Fake Heiress’s Body

Chapter 338 The Bitter Toast

As the floor spiraled into speculation, Damian’s pulse raced with manic adrenaline.

He had arrived at the exact same conclusion.

Furthermore, a pivotal figure flashed across his mind–Carter Group’s elusive architect.

That shadow genius had certainly decoded a hidden gem within Powell Group’s architecture that eluded everyone else.

In that case, he could never allow Carter Group to seize it.

An asset linked to Perez’s research or a viable neural–network architecture was easily worth five billion dollars on the open market.

No wonder Isabella was ready to pay whatever it took to claim this facility.

Riding the wave of certainty, Damian drew out his voice and roared, “5.3 billion dollars!”

Fearing Isabella held contingency reserves around the five–billion mark, he deliberately jumped straight to 5.3 billion.

That way, even if she scrambled for emergency credit lines, she couldn’t match his figure on the fly.

After all, they hadn’t planned to bid until Trevor tipped them off at the last minute.

Therefore, Isabella couldn’t possibly command extra liquidity on hand.

Her maximum deployment ceiling hovered around five billion at best.

Even if Carter Group scrambled wire transfers, the auction clock would expire first.

Victory is mine!

Gloating with absolute triumph, he cast a smug, mocking sneer toward Isabella’s balcony.

Yet at that exact moment, Isabella and Isaac stepped to the glass railing, meeting his gaze with serene, congratulatory smiles.

Isabella raised a glass of fruit juice, toasting him with effortless grace.

There wasn’t a trace of dismay or defeat in her eyes.

Instead, a radiant, mesmerizing smirk curled the corners of her lips.

Beside her, Isaac leaned in with an amused grin, chuckling as he whispered in her ear.

The pair radiated pure camaraderie, showing no signs of their theatrical squabble moments prior.

Disbelief froze Damian’s face.

His jaw dropped in utter horror.

Wait…

I retract my bid!
