Matthew's bid, doubling the starting price, clearly surprised the auctioneer, who promptly grabbed his gavel.
Matthew thought 50 thousand would clinch it and started to stand to finalize the deal, but suddenly, a deep, magnetic voice filled the room "51 thousand" When bidder number 001 slowly raised his paddle from the first row of VIP seats, everyone turned their surprised gazes towards the elegant figure.

After three rounds of bidding, the room was abuzz with chatter and restlessness, "A 20 grand skyrocketing to 2001 it's simply unbelievable!"
"Mr. Lockwood didn't react to the top "but ten tp bids earlier, but now he's m personally bidding on this one.
What's so special about it?" "If it were anyone else, maybe not, but Mr. Lockwood... could it be we're missing something?"
"It's strange that Oli hea Media's representative is so determined to get this , competing with Mr. Lockwood for it seems like a wild goose chase, doesn't it?"
