My Wife, the Iron Lady Chapter 216
Skylar stood behind Alain and Eden, his brows knitting together as he noticed how close they were.He hadn’t expected this woman to be Alain's fiancée. From the looks of it, Alain cared about her a lot.Normally, this wouldn’t concern him. But with the Wards involved, he had no choice but to pay attention.He didn’t want to drag the four prominent families too deeply into the auction because he wanted to ensure that whoever obtained the Bloodgod Herb did so on their own merits—in this case, those with enough money.That’s why he didn’t let the four prominent families handle security.But now, with Alain and his VIP together, the Bloodgod Herb…“Don’t worry, Mr. Skylar. The auction will proceed as planned. What you're worried about won’t happen,” Alain suddenly stopped and turned around, addressing Skylar.Skylar froze for a moment. He knew what Alain meant. He sighed in relief and smiled. “I'm sorry for having to do this.”“It’s good that you're being cautious,” Alain replied p

Eden glanced at the women before turning her attention away.There was still some time before the auction began. With nothing else to do, Eden took out her phone and started killing time by playing a game.Alain sipped his coffee calmly.Caelus and Horace had gone to the hall. Eden didn’t know why and didn’t ask.When she finished her game, Caelus and Horace returned.Caelus immediately walked over to Alain and whispered, "Mr. Wheeler is right next door."Alain’s fingers froze slightly, a glint appearing in his eyes. There was something different in his usual cold expression.Eden noticed his strange expression and frowned. "What is it?"Just then, there was a knock at the door.Caelus looked at Alain, who nodded, signaling him to open the door.As the door opened, Eden turned to look. A very handsome and graceful man entered. His eyes, in particular, seemed to hide something.Eden observed him briefly before looking away.He was attractive, but the violent aura around him

Eden threw her phone onto the table and looked at Terry coldly.Her gaze was predatory, as if she might tear him apart at any moment if she didn’t like his answer.Terry couldn’t help but instinctively freeze under her stare.The tension in the room was palpable.It took Terry a moment to collect himself before he spoke to Eden politely, "The Bloodgod Herb is useless to you. I'm willing to exchange it for even more valuable herbal materials, and I'll owe you a favor."Eden, growing impatient, propped her foot on her chair and looked at Terry like a gangster. "Is your favor worth much?""Huh?" Terry was momentarily speechless. "I think it is.""I see," Eden said with a shrug. "I don’t need it."Terry was at a loss for words.Alain, seeing Terry’s reaction, couldn’t help but laugh. "You see? My fiancée said no. I’m sorry, but I have to listen to my wife. I hope you understand.""So, you're going to snatch it from me, then?" Terry straightened up, his expression turning serious.

The host recited his opening script before finally addressing the main topic of the day. "We have six items up for auction. Five are antiques sponsored by other families, and the last is the Bloodgod Herb provided by the Parker family. I believe many of you are here for the Bloodgod Herb. Everyone knows how rare it is. Although this is an auction, the patriarch of the Parker family hopes it will go to the one who truly deserves it."The host took a deep breath before continuing, "That's why we’re increasing the number of auction items to ten. The additional four items are also rare and valuable herbal medicines, similar in appearance to the Bloodgod Herb. There will be no centerpiece in this auction, and the herbs will be auctioned off randomly. It will be up to your skills to secure the Bloodgod Herb."As soon as the host finished speaking, the entire place erupted in an uproar."What? Who has even seen a real Bloodgod Herb? How can anyone be sure they’re bidding on the right one?"

After a brief commotion, the auction proceeded as planned.Although the Parker family wasn't one of the four prominent families, some of the old-money families still had to adhere to their rules, despite their discontent.The auction was being overseen by members of the Agency. Whether it was an old-money family or one of Rielton's four prominent families, none of them wanted to cross the Agency.The first item up for auction was a pair of limited-edition earrings, designed by the famous jeweler DKL. There was only one pair like them in the world.Sponsored by the Sanders family, the starting bid for the earrings was one million dollars."Five million dollars."Quin wasted no time raising her paddle the moment she saw the earrings, immediately increasing the bidding price fivefold.When Eden heard this, she turned to look at Quin's room with a meaningful glance.Jewelry designed by DKL had always been highly coveted, and this pair of earrings quickly shot up in value, reaching

The lobby erupted once again after Alain's bold statement.The women around were starstruck. "Oh my gosh, who is that guy? How can he be so generous? Two billion for a pair of earrings for his partner?""That looks like Alain Ward from the Ward family. The woman next to him must be his fiancée. I heard he came back yesterday, but I didn’t expect him to show up at the auction. He's so generous… I'm getting jealous.""Absolutely. Jealous and envious!"Horace shot a glance at Alain, then back at Eden, before turning to Caelus. "What are these two up to? Aren’t they here for the Bloodgod Herb? Why are they bidding two billion dollars for these earrings?"Caelus looked at him like he was clueless. "Mr. Brooks, your EQ is seriously low."Horace scowled at him.Was his EQ really that low?"Can’t you tell Ms. Griffith is jealous?" Caelus stood up and patted Horace’s shoulder, explaining as if he were an expert. "Since she was getting jealous, Mr. Ward had to do something to make her ha

Vivian and Eden continued raising the bidding price.The amount had already reached $18 billion."Twenty billion!" Vivian, now visibly frustrated, upped the bid by another two billion in one go.Eden turned around and flashed a mischievous smile. "Twenty billion? That's too steep. I can't afford that."Vivian frowned, about to respond, but the host had already called the final bid. "Going once, going twice, sold! Congratulations, madam. The earrings are yours!"Vivian turned to Eden, gritting her teeth. "You did that on purpose, didn't you?"Eden lifted her gaze and replied, "You started it, didn’t you?""Why you..." Vivian clutched her chest, her face pale with anger.It was only when the host delivered the earrings to Vivian did everyone in the lobby seem to snap out of their shock. Their expressions were filled with astonishment."That has to be the priciest pair of earrings this year. Nothing will top that.""It was the clash of titans.""Tsk, are they all fools?"Twent

The affluent elites of Rielton placed immense value on their lives, especially their patriarchs. They couldn't bear the thought of dying from old age and were constantly searching for ways to extend their lives, even if it meant spending a fortune on something that could give them just one more month.But extending life by three years? Eden would be rich!Eden looked at Horace with a sympathetic smile. "I have plenty. If you want, I'll sell you some at a discount. Let's say... $100,000."Horace was speechless.Caelus had no words either.Alain glanced at Eden out of the corner of his eye and smiled. "I want some too, Boss Griffith. How much for one?"Eden put down her phone and rested her cheek on her hand, thinking for a moment. "You? It's fine. I don't want your money. I'll give it to you."Horace and Caelus both felt a pang of jealousy.Was this how single people felt?It took Horace a while to regain his composure. "Is it really that easy to get?""I guess so. They sell i
