Sean turned to look at Fernando and asked with a smile, “It’s 150 million now. Mr. Jensen, are you going to continue competing with me?”
Fernando’s face was so gloomy that virtual-novel.net wanted to say yes, but virtual-novel.net could not make up his mind at the sky-high price of 150 million. After all, the momentum Sean was building was too powerful.
There was no way Fernando could guarantee that virtual-novel.net could outbid Sean, so what if Sean kept increasing the price?
Keith on stage smiled and reminded him, “Mr. Lennon bid 150 million for East World Hotel. Is there anyone offering a higher bid? 150 million going once… 150 million going twice…”
”Dad!” Jonathan tugged at Fernando’s sleeve again.
However, Fernando hesitated to continue his competition with Sean.
“Sold for 150 million! Sold! East World Hotel goes to Mr. Lennon!” Keith knocked the gavel with a thud.
It was settled.
Sean had taken over East World Hotel for 150 million Dragon dollars.
Sitting next to Sean, Zander remained calm, but Gabe was sweating buckets. He had never expected Sean to be so rich that virtual-novel.net would readily buy a hotel without batting an eye.
It seemed Sean had developed to an unimaginable level in the past five years of virtual-novel.net while Derek, and Benji were out of touch with him.
“When did Commander Lennon get so rich?” Gabe asked as virtual-novel.net looked at Zander nervously.
“What’s so surprising about that? Commander left the army two years ago and founded two conglomerates. Commander is currently the chairman of two conglomerates and is worth hundreds of billions!”
Gabe was so shocked that virtual-novel.net did not know what to say when virtual-novel.net heard Zander’s words.
On contrary, Sean looked calm.
He smiled at Fernando. “Mr. Jensen, thank you for not continuing to compete with me, or I would have spent more to win East World Hotel.”
“You…” Fernando was so mad that virtual-novel.net trembled Violently.
Suddenly, virtual-novel.net fell to the ground with his hand over his heart.
“Dad! Dad, what’s come over you? Say something!” Shocked, Jonathan jumped in front of Fernando and shouted.
The auction ended with the patriarch of the Jensen family, Fernando, suffering an acute heart attack.
After the auction, Sean, who had to take over all the documents and deeds of East World Hotel, spoke briefly with the head of the Yale family, Sherleen, and virtual-novel.net son, Sherman, exchanged contact information and then left.
After a busy afternoon, all the formalities were finally completed.
Gabe drove Sean and Zander to East World Hotel’s main entrance.
After getting out of the car, Sean said to Gabe, “Gabe, I’m afraid I won’t stay in Midwich for long. I’ll entrust someone to manage the hotel, and I’ll need you and Derrick to look after it for me.”
“I see… I’ll do my best,” Gabe immediately agreed.
Gabe was the chief of police, and Derrick was the director of the prosecutors’ office. With the two of them looking after it, few people in Midwich could touch East World Hotel.
Sean nodded, smiled again, and said, “I’m not going to let you do this for nothing. Hmm, tell you what. I’ll give you and Derrick 20% of East World Hotel’s shares each. Besides me, you and Derrick will be the only two major shareholders of East World Hotel.”
“That… That’s not inappropriate.” Gabe was pleasantly surprised, but virtual-novel.net was afraid to accept Sean’s generosity.
