"Sir, this is already the fourth land, do we let it be seized by others?" secretary Riko reminded. From the beginning, he had absolutely intended to bid for the land and let it be obtained by a stranger sitting in the VVIP room.
"Here you go, what's the waste of money for? Only empty land is worthless. We better save this money to get the main land," he said with confidence.
"Don't let us go home empty-handed, sir."
"You're talking a lot, I'm the boss here. You see the person who claimed to be rich was only able to buy a small land around the main land of this auction," said Riko.
According to him, the small land had no price at all. Not comparable to Block C which has a triple area and is in the middle. Surrounding a small area that has been sold before.
Just like the others, Riko is aiming for the widest land that he thinks will be the center of the crowd. In addition, there are still other considerations that some of these people think.
Finally the anticipated time comes, the last two blocks are yet to be sold. Block E and Block C, all the auction participants were astonished, why Block E became the second most valuable auction item.
"Galih, you have to win both of these auctions" Bryan told the young man sitting next to him.
"If it doesn't work?"
"You don't have to be my secretary anymore either!" bryan exclaimed with his jaw hardened. Is it hard to raise your hand and bid the highest price? I thought Bryan.
Galih chose silence, but she knew Bryan's plans for auction items today. And the second highest auction ground was Block C. Fierce fighting again occurred, all participants scrambled to get the land.
Now Bryan knows, Block E has a place that is no less strategic, although the area is smaller than Block C. But the land is in front of the city center, no wonder the land became a scramble.
"Lan, make them offer the highest price. Make all their money run out in today's auction" whispered Vano to Arlan sitting next to him.
"Good."
"Bid at the highest price, after that give it to him."
Today's auction rules are, the last price of the previous auction will be the opening price of the next auction item, and so on. Vano has got two right plots of land next to Block E. There are Block F and Block B.
"$100,000," Riko raised her hand for the first time, she should not be late again.
"Is there anything higher?" ask the MC who is standing on stage.
"Yes, please number 8."
"$150.000," bargain Galih does not want to lose.
Everything puts out the best price, until finally Arlan has to act. Neither Galih nor Arlan dared to spend more than $100,000,000. Arlan gestured through the glances of his eyes. He managed to fish at the highest price.
"A hundred million once" said the MC, followed by a one-time hammer knock.
"Two hundred million twice ....." He did the same thing followed by two hammer taps.
Bryan himself was astonished, why Vano no longer offered. Until the third beat, he had only realized his mistake. Apparently Vano deliberately wanted him to spend a hundred million dollars. That meant, their company would no longer be able to afford to get the first order of the auction today.
Vano grinned triumphantly, he could obtain the Block E grounds without many people wanting to scramble with him. He had a double profit, three lands belonged to him.
Knocking the hammer three times, Vano was the winner. "Congratulations, honored guest up there."
A standing ovation from all the auction attendees, not with Riko leaving the place early with an annoyed face. Not only did he drop Riko, he also lost his deal with Vano.
Vano plans to build an underground railway in Block E, around which he can create hotels and malls. Not only that, the station is the main line, where all other landowners must pass through Block E if they want to go in and out of the place.

At the hospital, Henry and Adel come to visit Yuri's mother. They introduced themselves directly as besan, also apologized because the wedding seemed sudden and did not go through the process in general.
"We are now a family, there is no need to discuss it anymore" Yuri said politely.
Henry is not a fool, he has investigated what happened to his eldest son and Fay. He was very sad because he only found out after the two were officially married.
"We need to apologize." Adel pulled the corner of his lips upwards, forming a smile. She is very grateful that Vano was able to meet Fay and not another woman.
Henry's phone shook, he checked the name on the screen and asked permission to receive the phone outside. "Darling, wait a minute. You guys just continue chatting," she said.
Adel nodded his head accompanied by a smile on his face. The woman who began to grow fine strokes still looks beautiful, despite having entered the age of five heads.
"I've heard about your family, Ike. I didn't expect that Riko would do that" Adel said, now that there were only the two of them, there was nothing to cover anymore. Adel also called the woman by a familiar name as a young man. Ike, which is Yurike's full name. Women of mixed Japanese and Indonesian blood.
"Here I am the fool, making my daughter suffer and bear the mistakes I made" Yuri said with a sad face. "You're very lucky to be married to Henry, Adel."
"Yes, as you can see. He has always been my loyal supporter. You also don't have to worry, if you need anything tell me. Don't worry, like you said, we're family!"
The two were engrossed in chatting, Henry deliberately let the two women vent his longing. Yurike was Adel's partner in college. After the marriage, Adel never again met or heard from Yuri.
It was time for lunch, Sister Ningsih brought Mother Yuri's lunch before taking the medicine. This afternoon he also had a doctor's check-up schedule to see the development of post-surgery.
"We had lunch together?" take Yuri.
"No, I'm not hungry yet. You eat and don't mind me."
"Later on," Yuri refused.
"I'll bribe you, remember back in college? You always remind me to eat, also bring provisions for me, sometimes you bribe me if my duties accumulate," Adel persuaded. He recalled his past with Yuri on campus.
With Adel's persuasion, Yuri was finally willing to enjoy her lunch. However, only a few bribes Yuri was no longer willing to accept Adel's bribe for him. Yuri coughed, not only that, there was a red stain on the tissue used to wipe her mouth.
"Enough, Adel. Uhukkk ..., uhukkk...."
Adel was in a panic, and Yuri was losing consciousness. He screamed for help, Henry who was chatting in the hallway with Doctor Adam immediately ran and found Adel was crying in fear with bloody hands.
"Doctor, nurse ..., please!"
"What's going on?" doctor Adam asked, but Adel only answered him with a scalp.
"Okay, please wait outside. We will handle it" said Doctor Adam to a couple who did not lose panic.
"Let the doctor act, dear." Henry took his wife outside.
"Dad, I'm scared."
What happened to Yuri? Will his life be saved?
