It was difficult for her to understand how Carol Rockefeller acquired the authorization letter for the
shareholdersâ consent. Anyway, other than Noah Rockefellerâs signature on it, there was also the
signature of another major shareholder, John Rockefeller⦠Carol told her that she only needed fifty
billion dollars. Paige Rockefeller could have the extra amounts for herself.
Hence, Paige had set up such an auction. To her, it was exactly what she needed. If she were to
manage the company, Rockefeller Group would have to file for bankruptcy within half a year.
If the auction turned out to be successful, she was confident that her assets would be no less than
Carolâs.
âWhatâs going on?
âWho dares to make a ruckus at Rockefeller Group? The person must be very bold! Security guards!
Where are the security guards?!â
Paige was dressed beautifully as she was surrounded by the companion of many rich men and female
partners.
Smack!
Suddenly, a silhouette flashed past her.
Someone slapped Paigeâs face that was covered with cosmetic foundation, hard.
The person slapping her was none other than Brittany Rockefeller.
It was a very hard slap. Paigeâs face could not withstand the impact at all. Her nose immediately bled,
and half of her face became swollen.
If it werenât for someone behind to support her, she would have stumbled and fallen to the ground.
âBrittany⦠Brittany Rockefeller, itâs you?! You⦠What are you doing here?â
Paige stuttered as her face hurt so much that she could not speak properly.
Brittany said, âI heard that youâre going to auction Rockefeller Group, so I came to take a look. What
about it? Did you give the order not to let us in? Whatâs the meaning of this? Are you looking down at
us? Do you feel that weâre inferior to others?â
Paigeâs expression changed abruptly, showing instinctive fear.
However, she thought about getting a huge sum of money soon, so she forcibly endured the panic
feeling in her heart and said, âBrittany Rockefeller, this is our normal business operation. Before this,
you publicly declared in front of my fatherâs funeral parlor that Rockefeller Group was considered the
alimony given by the Rockefeller family to raise William Rockefeller. Other than normal business
means, you wouldnât resort to dirty tricks! Are you going to go back on your words now?â
Maya said, âWe came here to join the auction according to the business rules. And, you forbid us to
enter the auction?â
âIâ¦â
Paige really wanted to reject them because she had predicted that nothing good would happen.
However, after glancing at the people standing behind them, she really dared not utter such words.
Brittany, Alex, and Maya walked into the auction venue with a group of guards in the end.
It was eight oâclock sharp!
The auction started!
Just as the host on the stage was about to give a speech, Azure took twenty guards in black outfits up
the stage right away.
When the host was still in a daze, Azure grabbed the microphone in his hand with an evil look. Then,
he kicked him off the stage.
At that instant, there was a commotion at the scene.
Maya tugged at Alexâs hand and whispered, âBro, what did you ask him to do?â
Alex subconsciously rubbed her slender fingers. He shook his head and said, âI didnât ask him to do
anything. Itâs his intention. But this guy has always been sassy. He might make an unexpected move.â
As expected, Azure ignored the commotion of the people below the stage and said with a smile,
âRockefeller Group is going to be wrapped up and auctioned. That guy just now is not qualified to be
the host, so Iâll host it! Let me introduce myself. Iâm Azure Storm. Many people present may know me.
Lord Lex from Thousand Miles Conglomerate is my godfather!â
As soon as he said that, some people who did not know Azure immediately gasped out of
astonishment.
That was the king of Californiaâs underworld!
Well, in fact, the king did not have the slightest value in front of many martial experts. However, this title
would make any ordinary citizen utterly stunned.
âLet me count the numbers. How many people here are genuinely prepared to acquire Rockefeller
Group?â
âRaise your hand!â
âIf you donât raise your hand, that means youâre going to abstain from bidding!â
