Chapter 15 - The Final Asset Liquidation Auction Begins Downtown
Monday morning brought the public liquidation auction of Derek’s personal luxury assets at a premier downtown auction house.
A crowd of curious onlookers, rival developers, and bargain hunters filled the tiered bidding hall to capacity.
The auctioneer’s gavel struck the wooden podium repeatedly as sports cars, art collections, and watches were sold off.
Derek’s custom silver Aston Martin fetched a fraction of its value, bought by an anonymous corporate proxy.
His penthouse apartment was officially repossessed by the bank, its luxury furnishings tagged for immediate removal.
Arthur Sterling sat in the third row, observing the dismantling of the Harrington estate on behalf of the Whitmore trust.
Not a single item remained under Derek’s name that wasn't already tied to federal restitution claims or creditor payouts.
