Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 514

“What does Mr. Walker want with this land?” Yvonne asked instinctively.

“What do you think?” Bennett asked with a smile.

Yvonne paused for a moment, then she suddenly recalled the investigation into Colin’s case years ago. The Gonzalez family's transportation company had gone bankrupt and been seized, but the profits from smuggling were enormous. It seemed Mr. Walker wasn’t willing to give that up.

Thinking about the land’s prime geographical location, Yvonne finally understood.

Seeing that she seemed to grasp the situation, Bennett smiled.

Mr. Walker actually wanted to use a fool like Eden to drag the Thompson family into his dirty business.

In the end, Eden won the land for a price of ten billion.

On stage, the auctioneer was congratulating Eden on becoming the new owner of the property, but Eden’s face showed no trace of joy.

Ten billion was far beyond his budget; he would probably have to sell off other assets to raise the funds.

As the auction concluded, people began to leave.

Bennett, holding Yvonne's hand, ran into Eden and his entourage at the exit.

“Bennett, what a coincidence,” Eden said first, his eyes subtly sizing up Yvonne.

Young, beautiful, and fresh. Indeed, someone Yolanda couldn’t compare to. But to give up the support of the Walker family for a woman was a foolish trade.

“Congratulations, Mr. Monroe,” Bennett replied with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

Eden’s expression soured. Acquiring the land for three billion over budget was hardly something to celebrate.

But Eden was composed. His face quickly returned to a neutral expression as he changed the subject. “Grandma is sick and still in the hospital. You should visit her when you have time.”

“I’ve been quite busy lately, so I probably won’t be able to make it. Please give her a message for me. Tell her that at her age, she should focus on her health and cultivate her spirit; insatiable greed shortens one’s life.”

But Bennett didn't even lift an eyelid. He simply took Yvonne's hand and walked right past them.

After they were gone, Yolanda frowned and shoved Eden’s hand off her waist. “Did you get the land?” she asked coldly.

Eden nodded. “Don’t worry. When he asks me to do something, I always get it done.”

“Good.” With that, Yolanda turned to get back in the car.

To her surprise, Eden opened the other door and sat down right next to her.

“Don’t you have your own car? What are you doing in mine?” Yolanda snapped, wishing she could throw him out.

“Mr. Walker said you were free tonight. How about we catch a movie and have dinner together?” Eden suggested.

Yolanda looked utterly unwilling, but Eden had already invoked Mr. Walker’s name, leaving her no room to refuse.
