Chapter 4611 Played

Despite his apprehension, Patrick did not think it was his place to comment. He quietly dined. The food was delicious anyway, which was pretty unusual at events of that skill. Nevertheless, Patrick had heard about Edmund’s appreciation for the finer things in life. The man must have brought his house chef along to make the food. “Just be sure about what you want to do. Do you have enough money on you? Should I make some arrangements?” Patrick asked since Lyra was his companion. “It’s just loose change. I can certainly afford it. I can get the funds wired to me, so you don’t have to spend your own,” Lyra said. “Alright then. I might not be able to help you with this. I run a business. Even though I don’t have business ties with the Viper’s Den, the organization can give me hell if they want to.”Patrick was not against the idea of helping. However, it was best that he practiced caution. “No problem. Just do what you think is best. I don’t want to put you in the spot,” Lyra

Chapter 4612 The Only Chance

Those people did not mind the splurge on occasion to bid on antiques, hoping to gain the branch leader’s favor. However, things turned out rather unexpectedly. Kaze let out a smug smile as the chatter went on. He had anticipated the reaction, but the response was bigger than he had expected. “Since you’re all keen, let us begin.” Kaze was pleased with the situation. Those people were eager to have dinner with him, and he knew what they were after. “The bid to have dinner with the branch leader will start at 100 million dollars,” the auctioneer said earnestly. Though the price was a little absurd, he was sure that people were willing to pay for it. It was a rare opportunity that nobody wanted to miss, so the astronomical price tag was no issue at all. If people could not handle the price, they could only blame themselves for the lack of funds. When the starting bid was announced, a brief silence followed. The crowd probably did not expect the ridiculous price, even though th

Chapter 4613 Too Risky

“These people are taking this seriously because they think they can replace me. They won’t be so keen when they realize this is impossible.” Edmund had seen through those people. They never held Edmund in high regard right from the start. They only showed Edmund respect because he had a friend in very high places. Once Edmund lost his biggest supporter, they would have an attitude toward him. Ryan felt uneasy. The situation was new, and fear settled in. Mainly, he was concerned that things would escalate beyond control. “Aren’t you worried, Mr. Witterson? Even though Mr. Lee has been good to you, you honestly trust him completely.” Ryan was not trying to drive a wedge between Edmund and Kaze. The situation was simply beneath him. “I know the type of person Mr. Lee is. He doesn’t care about power. He has his reason to take this approach.” Despite his nerves, Edmund could not show his emotions even to Ryan, his trusted aide. It would be in Edmund’s best interest if no one c

Chapter 4614 Embrace Deception

“We’re talking about a chance in a million, and you’re worried about that? Just get your head in the game.” Edgar was anxious. The last thing he wanted to do was miss out on the opportunity. All he could think about was jumping at the chance. He had already told the company’s accountant to gather the funds. He was all for the bidding war. Even if he did not succeed in the end, he would not regret giving it a shot. Nobody in their right mind would walk away from a prime opportunity right in front of them. Kaze stood on stage and watched as everybody got ready to bid. Everything was going as planned, and he was pleased. His gaze shifted to the second floor. He wondered if the people there understood what he was trying to say. He was giving them a chance to meet, and it was up to the individual to take it. He could not care less about the money. However, he was happy for them to engage in a bidding war just for a chance to see him. “Are you ready? We will begin the auction of

Chapter 4615 Insufficient Funds

“The Hanbergs’ company has only taken off, so they don’t have a lot of resources. They have nothing on the Days,” another man at the same table commented to put Ken at ease. “Weren’t they smug before? Well, I’m going to make them pay,” Ken said, his tone menacing. “Mr. Day, the competition is intense. The guests on the second floor are joining in,” another uttered. The rivals were never just the Hanberg father and son. “So what? Anyone else but the Hanbergs can win the auction,’ Ken said solemnly. “Well, aren’t you vengeful? But they deserve it. Why did they have to compete with you, Mr. Day?” “Anyway, you guys should pull your weight here. We can’t just give up on the chance to meet with the branch leader. This opportunity might not happen again,” Ken said as the mood lightened. The others nodded and entered the bidding war, but deep down, they already knew that the guests on the first floor stood no chance. The winner would most probably be someone from the second floor

Chapter 4616 Not Lost

Darcy never counted on anyone else’s help. Even if she had to reach out for assistance, she did not want to lose her dignity. Once she lost her pride, she would be sidelined and pushed out of her livelihood. She had been around the block to know a few things. She had suffered a lot of setbacks to get to where she was today, and it was those hardships that shaped her.No matter the challenges, Darcy never considered relying on others since nothing came for free in the world. Instead, she would try to change things on her own in the face of adversity. That was why she found the whole thing absurd every time Agnes raised the question of marrying her off to a man. Men were the most unreliable. She would only find strength by counting on herself. “I don’t know if the Hanbergs will help you, but why won’t you try something good for you?” Agnes could not understand her daughter’s mindset. Still, she stuck to her guns, trying to change Darcy’s mind, hoping she would learn to depend on

Chapter 4617 Steep Price

“Even though my family gave me a nice number to bid on, there’s no need to keep going. Why show my hand when I can’t beat those people?” Ken said as his friends looked confused. The friends nodded and looked at Ken with respect. “There are a lot of people here today. It’s not a good idea to expose your wealth, or we’ll lose future business opportunities.” “Props to you, Mr. Day. Sure enough, it’s smart to keep your options open for future collaborations.” The group showered Ken with praise. As the auctioneer called out the numbers in a thrill, many put down their paddles. Since the price was beyond their capabilities, they became the audience and observed the bidding war. Julian stared at his father, awaiting his instructions. He knew that Edgar was not ready to throw in the towel. However, there was a limit to their funds, and they had to stop. “Dad, this is as far as we can go. We can’t continue anymore. At this rate, people will know our cards.“Talk about bad luck. S

Chapter 4618 No End

“These people are probably on a similar social standing as you. They might have something else in mind to meet the branch leader,” Patrick said. “Who exactly are they? What kind of help can the branch leader offer them? They seem to be going all out,” Lyra said in displeasure. She turned to Patrick. It was a last-minute decision for Patrick to come to the auction, so he had no idea who was in the other private suites. However, only the top one percent were placed on the second floor. “I don’t know. Maybe their families have their own reasons. They might have goals to achieve.” Patrick did not want to get caught up in the middle. He would often speak, giving an outside perspective without implicating himself. “Well, aren’t you relaxed? Do you even care about me as your friend?” Lyra remarked. There was no blame in her tone, but it was clear from the look on her face that she wanted Patrick to offer help. Patrick, however, played dumb, not diving into danger. He refused to

Chapter 4619 Regret for Missing It

“Did you find out anything about the plus-one?” Bronwen was more than capable of staying in the running, but he did not want the branch leader to profit so much from the already high bid. “I can’t get anything on her. She’s a mystery. All I learn is that she’s with Patrick.” The assistant was not sure what was going on either. However, the lady was not invited to the auction. She simply attended the event as part of the Weldons’ party. She had not been out of the room since she went inside. Her identity was beneath them. However, she must come from power and wealth to hold her ground in the bidding war. “Things are getting interesting.” Bronwen refused to admit defeat and lose to a girl. The bid went up to 5.5 billion dollars, and the competition was still intense. “Why don’t we just forget it, Mr. Goodbar? Sure, you won’t get this kind of opportunity again, but the price is not worth us continuing.” “What do you know? This is our moment. It will be frustrating to just

Chapter 4620 Gracious

Lyra’s arrogance put Brody in a spot. Previously, Brody would always be given special deference and respect everywhere as Bronwen’s assistant. However, the snub today was a bit jarring. Lyra turned around and looked at Patrick. Even if she did not want to give Brody the time of day, she had to show Patrick some respect and not be too harsh. Before, Lyra would not have been so civil. Her usual modus operandi would be to beat Brody up and kill him. After all, she was powerful enough not to follow certain rules. She had other things to worry about, but this man had to interrupt her thoughts and give her trouble. There was no way she would put up with the man. “This is not my concern. I’m just here for the show.” Patrick expressed his stance, preferring not to get caught up in the situation. Besides, he did not want to upset either party. Brody had no idea what was going on, but he knew what he had come for. He thought that Bronwen was up against a strong heiress, but Lyra wa
