Chapter 2433
Titus could not understand what was on Mr. Lockhart and Dicky's minds.
After all, he did not like Sienna. Although the Lake family's second branch was weaker than the first
branch, it did not need any external help.novelbin
Since Sienna kicked Titus out of Quartz Residence, he had lost all interest in the Quartz family's
heiress.
Instead of wasting time on her, he would rather go out drinking with his friends and pick girls up.
"1'11 offer a million dollars!"
Dicky did not want Mr. Lockhart to show him up, so he immediately made an offer again.
Sienna's smile broadened when the two men raised the originally 100-thousand-dollar painting to 1
million dollars.
Although the auction was said to be a charity auction, Winter Green Auction House would only donate
its commission.
The payment would ultimately go to the seller who provided the auction items.
Winter Green Auction House's commission varied from 10% to 30%, according to the price of the
goods.
A small number of particularly valuable auction items would also agree to the auction house's 40%
commission.
The commission for a painting like this was 15%. The auction house would get 150 thousand from one
million dollars, while the owner of the auction item would get the remaining 850 thousand.
However, if the amount was not too large for a charity auction like this, most of the money raised at the
auction would be donated.
On the one hand, the money was not much. On the other hand, they could earn a good reputation.
The Ocean City dignitaries present were not short of money. They wanted reputation and fame.
"Okay! Since Mr. Neelson is so generous, I won't compete with you!
"Give the painting to Mr. Neelson! I think his kindness can also win him applause for paying one million
dollars for a painting like this!"
Seeing that the price of the painting was raised to one million dollars, Mr. Lockhart's eyes glimmered as
he gave up bidding for it. He did not even forget to ridicule Dicky.
Dicky also looked pale.
Although he was a wealthy heir, his family assets were only hundreds of millions. Although a million
dollars was not much, it was still a significant amount.
Mr. Lockhart's wealth was similar to his, and both guys were using this auction to gain Sienna's favor. It
was why they spared no expense to raise a 100-thousand-dollar painting to 1 million.
"Hmph, you're right, Mr. Lockhart!
"After today's auction, Ocean City will know that the Neelson family is stronger than the Lockhart
family!
"Paying a million dollars for fame is worth it!"
The gloom on Dicky's face disappeared and was replaced by a broad smile.
He was pleased he had come up with such a good rebuttal to Mr. Lockhart.
A million dollars was not a lot of money for the Neelson family. If it could show other dignitaries in
Ocean City that the Neelson family was stronger than the Lockhart family, it would be a fair deal.
Mr. Lockhart was now sullen and silent.
"Congratulations to Mr. Neelson on winning this painting with a million dollars!"
Sienna on stage also spoke, announcing the winner of the painting.
Mr. Neelson rose slowly, showed a smile he thought was handsome, and said to Sienna on the stage,
"I'm also passionate about charity!"
Really? Well done, Mr. Neelson!"
Sienna said with a chuckle.
Other wealthy heirs, who were worth far more than Dicky and Mr. Lockhart, quietly watched the two.
Their playful eyes looked as if they were watching two clowns.
Many of the young heirs present today had gone to Quartz Residence to ask for Sienna's hand, but
every one of them was kicked out by Sienna, the heiress of the Quartz family.
Many were worth far more than Dicky and Mr. Lockhart, but Sienna did not even take a fancy to them,
so there was no way she would like Dicky and Mr. Lockhart.
