Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 302

“Indeed. The powerful Strauss family has produced many talents. That’s why they’re called the fifth Great Immortal Sect. If they’re joining the bid, it means they’re determined to get the script.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Lana started pitching, “The guest in lounge No. 1 bidded five billion dollars. Any counterbid? “She added, “Think carefully. We’re talking about the Aether Script now. The returns are endless if you unlock the secrets…”

Her enthusiastic and exaggerated speech was met with a lukewarm response as the bidding price was too high for most.

The elite families might be wealthy, but they’d have to be out of their minds to splurge billions of dollars on an auction item. If Phaedra Island failed to unearth the secrets within the script after holding it for years, everyone believed that they did not stand a chance.

Besides that, no one would want to get on the bad side of the Strauss family.

Lana, seemingly noticing the issue at play, finally stopped marketing the script.

“Five billion dollars! Going once… Going twice…”

Right when Lana was about to seal the bid, she heard a deep, firm voice from the back of the hall. “Six billion dollars!”

Everyone turned to look at Sebastian, who offered six billion dollars. Joseph and Zia gaped at him as they did not expect him to participate in the bidding all of a sudden.

“That dude certainly has deep pockets. No wonder the Sanders selected him as their son-in- law.”

“The script is useless if you can’t decode the secrets. He’d be spending billions on nothing. That’s the action of a spendthrift,” someone remarked with a sour grapes attitude.
