Chapter 403
Vivian had no tto think about that now. She was still trying to understand
about Harbour Crescent - though she couldn't figure out why Sarah had suddenly given up, the island was now
hers.
With the final fall of the hammer, Pine Mist Island went to the woman in the corner.
James looked over curiously - the woman's voice seemed familiar, but he couldn't place where he'd heard it
before.
As the auction was drawing to a close, Sarah went to the restroom.
She had just finished washing her hands when Charlotte's accusatory voice rang out, "Why did you suddenly
give up? | bid on Crystal Bay for you - | only raised the price because | was trying to help you."
Sarah laughed coldly, "Charlotte, if | were you, | wouldn't have the nerve to stand here saying such things. When
| told you to tell Vivian | wanted Crystal Bay, is that really what you told her?"
"I... of course | did. | told her about it," Charlotte took a step back.
"Liar! | thought after what happened last time, you'd understand the value of
working with me. But | see now | overestimated you."
Sarah's expression grew colder as she turned to leave.

Charlotte grabbed her arm desperately, "Then what about Crystal Bay?"
"How ridiculous. You bought it - why are you askingwhat to do? How is that my problem?" Sarah shook off
her hand.
"You-!" Charlotte nearly stumbled from anger.
But Charlotte wasn't the only one waiting for Sarah outside the restroom - Vivian was there too.
As soon as Sarah emerged, Vivian spoke up, "Thank you for lettinghave Harbour Crescent."
"Don't mention it," Sarah replied with an insincere smile before quickly walking away.
Charlotte emerged from behind just as Vivian spoke, "Although | got Harbour Crescent, | feel uneasy about it.
Can you tellwhy?"
Sarah stopped and looked at her calmly. "Didn't Charlotte tell you? Harbour Crescent wasn't what | wanted."
"What?" Vivian was shocked.
Sarah didn't want to explain further and simply walked away.
Vivian turned to Charlotte with an icy stare. "Charlotte, what's the meaning of this? You didn't tellthe truth?"
Charlotte was caught off guard by Sarah's move. She shook her head, "No! She really only toldshe wanted
Harbour Crescent, and toldto trick you by saying she wanted Crystal Bay."
Vivian didn't believe a word. "You never learn until it's too late, Charlotte. You should know there are serious
consequences when someone pissesoff."

"What are you doing?" Charlotte jumped in fright.
Vivian snorted coldly and walked away.
Back in the auction hall, Sarah returned leisurely to her seat.
She knew her cousin must be very confused but hadn't asked her anything yet because he trusted her
completely.
"Cousin, yesterday | received a
document - the Shipping Route
Planning Report: It wleadly étked
the Ratdsand islands along the new
route, and Harbour Crescent wasn't

Indeed, this was the document Zachary had given her last night.
Melvin glanced in Mr. Anderson's direction. "But what about Mr. Anderson..."
"He's quite remarkable - | finally understand that now," Sarah said with genuine admiration.
"The reason he told us about Harbour
Crescent was just to get us. to-fight
for it. HES ojdoa Eerie
