As Daniel made his bid, the atmosphere became even more charged.
This signified a high chance of valuable finds in the container.
All they needed to do was to follow his lead, and they were sure to profit.
Wilson, energized and ready for Matt to continue bidding, was puzzled by Matt's furrowed brow.
"Matt, aren't you going to continue bidding?" Wilson asked, confused.
"Bidding further would be a waste of effort. Do you think you can outspend Daniel?" Matt replied, somberly.
Stumped, Wilson couldn't deny that his funds paled in comparison to Daniel's.
But giving up so readily seemed too feeble, too spineless.
How could they just let such a profitable container slip through their fingers?
Matt, of course, wasn't about to let that happen.
He had resolved not to let any potential treasures slip by, especially those Daniel was eyeing.
His words were designed to catch Emilia's attention.
Among the three of them, only she had the financial muscle to rival Daniel.
