As the bidding began, it was exactly what everyone had expected: a bloodbath. The room was charged with aggression as the billionaires competed for the projects they were coveting.
Aliana sat looking stunning in a deep sapphire blue satin gown. The dress featured a structured, blazer-style top with gold buttons, paired with a sleek, flowing skirt that hugged her figure perfectly. She completed the look with metallic heels, a gold clutch, and an elegant updo.
She looked powerful, refined, and commanding as she watched every single bid with a calculating eye.
The Van Empire bid on a project or two as a backup, but their main focus remained on the massive port project that was yet to be announced.
As the auction progressed, Aliana's gaze drifted toward Gavriel's table, where he sat in his navy blue bespoke suit as a picture of calm dominance.
