The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow novel Chapter 160

Judson's eyes turned icy. "You really think that kind of money is going to scare my wife off? Dream on."

With that, Judson gripped Nancy's hand again and raised their bidding paddle.

"Two hundred million."

The words dropped like pebbles into a still pond, sending ripples through the entire room.

Everyone was stunned.

Nancy couldn't help but glance at Judson. "Judson..."

"What are you worried about?" Judson whispered in her ear, "We were planning to collaborate with NY on this paint deal anyway. I'll just negotiate a higher signing fee with Neil!"

Nancy's fingers paused, seeing the determination etched on Judson's face. She knew he was serious.

Cyrus was attempting to buy her compliance. However, Judson preferred to charm Neil into a deal and earn more, rather than let that happen.

Nancy grinned slightly. "Relax, two hundred million isn't enough to make you do anything undignified."

Cyrus watched the two of them whispering, visibly irritated. He knew Judson was doing this on purpose.

Unable to hold back any longer, he snapped, "Judson, do you even have two hundred million? What are you even trying to do here?"

Judson shrugged off the accusation with a smile. "Whether I do or not, the auction house will find out soon enough."

"Indeed, given that Judson has Lena's Studio backing him," Nancy added coolly.

With Lena's Studio collaborating with The Sandro Group, business was booming.

Earning two hundred million was entirely plausible.

Cyrus, seething as he saw Nancy siding with Judson, raised his paddle sharply. "Three hundred million! And from now on, I'll outbid anyone by fifty million more!"

But before he could finish his sentence—

"Five hundred million!"

From the front row, Michael smirked, a hint of mischief in his eyes. "Showing off wealth, are we? Let's see how many here can outbid Mr. Green."
