Arthur knows he's angry; he knows what he just said didn't go down well with him, but he doesn't care if he truly wants the school; he should do everything possible to get it. He would not pity anyone.“I'm sorry about that, but I have made my decision, and I'm giving it to the highest bidder.” Mason at that moment squeezed his feast. If not for the fact, the master wants this damn school. Why would he be listening to this trash? The foolish man is saying, but he knows nobody can outbid him. In this situation, everything is with him. He must get it for the master. He knows Arthur will look for another excuse to hand over the school to the damn man in the Zoom call. He won't allow that to happen. He cleared his throat.“Mr. Arthur, it's alright. We agreed to the bid; if that is what you want, we accept.” Arthur nods; he wasn't expecting them to agree to his demand so easily, but since they have agreed, they should start immediately, he utters.“Mr. Marcus, You heard what Mr. Mason sa
At that moment, Arthur stood up. From his seat if not for the fact Marcus was on a Zoom call, he would have worked close to him and handed over the documents to him already. He thought the one billion dollars Mr. Mason bid was the final and Mr. Marcus wouldn't be able to come close to it, but he dubbed it, his forehead sweating at that moment. Mason's heart. He doesn't know what to say. He thought no one would be able to outbid him, but he cleared him off the water. What is he going to do now? If not for the master who sent them some money to acquire the school, he wouldn't have been able to bid one billion dollars. Now he needs to up his bid if he wants to get the school, it's going to be difficult because they only have 2.5 billion remaining. It's not a guarantee the bastard will place another bid. What is he going to do now? Who would dare challenge Master? Who the hell is this man? Marcus just smiled, knowing how quiet the room was. He knows what he just said, shocked everyone.
Mason at that moment doesn't know what to do. His head was full of thoughts. What the master's personal assistant just said keeps ringing in his head. He knows they are in trouble. Now the master is going to take action against them. which they can not contain. He immediately brought out his phone. He needs to call his father to inform him about the situation before it turns worse. His call was answered immediately. Mason's father spoke with a joyful voice. He knows Mason must have acquired the school already, which is why he is calling him. He knows Mason does not joke around when it comes to situations like this, which is why he fully trusts him.“Hello, son. For you to be calling me now; it means you have signed all the documents already.” Mason, at that moment, opened his mouth and words refused to come out. He does not know how he's going to tell his father that a useless stranger messed up this situation. However, he does not have any choice now; he needs to tell his father
Author at that moment started thinking of the possibility of Marcus just saying all of this, and he can't pay for the school. He gave him a listening ear because of Douglas; he said he's reliable, but from what he's hearing, he can't depend on Douglas's words alone; he wants to see it with his eyes. Mason was becoming frustrated at that moment. Sweat covered his forehead. How can the faceless man say he will add one billion dollars to every bid he makes? Is he a money god or what? only top-second-class families would be able to boast of $10 billion in family wealth, and they wouldn't even dare spend it all on a school that's not even worth it. Even a first-class family wouldn't do that, so the faceless man is lying; he needs to speak out.“Author, I know you can agree with me that the faceless man is lying; he can't pay such an amount of money for Crown High School, you and I know it's not possible to do so, I'm suspecting you planned all of this just for you to make me increase m
The minister of education had carefully planned ahead when the young master called him. He knew he had to be fast, and it seems it has paid off. Marcus was full of smiles. It seems Mason has not recovered from the shock. He thinks he was playing games when he was bidding those amounts of money. He has nothing to gain in all of this, it's because of Ivy. She can't attend any other school that is below Crown High School standards in Summerville, and Mason being the investor who is investing in the school made him more determined to get the school, knowing kicking Ivy out of the school would be the first thing he was going to do. Marcus utters.“Thanks to you for passing the proposal, minister. We want to make sure Crown High School's name is heard in the capital, and this is a great step in achieving the dream.” The minister nods.“Thanks to you for finding the time to pass this information to Mr. Arthur.” Marcus said as the minister left the Zoom call. Author stared at his laptop
Mason stood up from his chair immediately. He kicked it, and the chair turned over. He's frustrated at that moment. Not only that, but he never thought for once he would be in this situation. He thought everything would be done smoothly, not knowing he was in for the greatest shock in his life. His eyes turned deadly at the moment.“Author, so this was your plan all along; you planned all of this with this faceless man to rip my family off. How dare you?” Author sees the look on Mason's face; he knows Mason is angry.“Mason, you should be channeling your anger to yourself. You have all the opportunity to get the school if you take the bid seriously, but you didn't. Someone else took up the opportunity, and he got it. The meeting is over. You can leave now.” Mason, at that moment, stares deathly at Author. He thinks he's joking. At that moment, Mason immediately jumps on the table and walks closer to Author, grabbing his shirt.“After all you have done, you want me to leave? You mus
Hazel wasn't happy to see her mother here with Lady Charlotte. She must have come to tell Lady Charlotte what she did last night. She should be happy that Marcus has forgiven her; if not, she would not have attended the meeting instead of them to be happy Marcus is doing all of this for them. They are busy fighting him for his kind heart. They needed to see the way everything went smoothly in San Yellow Company. It was as if she just went in there to sign the documents that were already prepared for her, and she went out without anyone asking her any questions. She wonders who Marcus's friend was. She knows only the top staff of San Yellow Company can demand such power. She should ask Marcus later, but now she needs to hand over the documents to Lady Charlotte. Not only that, but she doesn't want to be in the presence of her mother now.“Yes, I signed the contract, and here are the documents.” She handed over the documents to Lady Charlotte, who immediately stood up and walked clo
Penelope quickly walked out to see if Hazel would still be outside, but to her surprise, she had left; it seemed she had a taxi waiting for her. At that moment, she started to wonder how Hazel and Marcus got back together. She was just happy for nothing when Hazel said she signed the contract. She thought Hazel had come back to her senses, but from what just happened inside, it had gotten worse for her to talk back at her grandmother. She is definitely angry. She doesn't have to be worried about them not in the house, because she only sent money for two nights in a hotel to Hazel yesterday. That must be where they are staying when the money finishes; they will come back to the house. That good-for-nothing Marcus escaped her perfect plan just because of the damn dash cam. He was lucky yesterday, but it's not over yet. She will surely get him again soon. Hazel is her daughter, and she has every right to decide what is best for her. Penelope entered her car and drove off. Hazel ar
