The next afternoon.Sean and Lisha left the mayor’s residence and headed to the Harvey Tower to attend the auction organized by the Harvey Chamber of Commerce.The Harvey Tower was located near the central square in the city center. Lisha drove Sean to the destination quickly.After they left the parking lot, they arrived at the entrance of the Harvey Tower.However, just as they stepped onto the steps, two security guards in suits stopped Sean and Lisha.“Are you guys here to attend the auction?”A security guard asked, with a suspicious expression on his face and constantly sizing up Sean.It was because Sean’s attire was too ordinary. He did not have a single designer brand from head to toe, and he even had a long sword hanging from his waist. Hence, such attire naturally aroused suspicion.Most importantly, Lisha was dressed elegantly and radiantly.When Sean and Lisha were standing together, they were like people from two different worlds, and the difference could be de
After Harvey came out of the building, he quickly walked over to Lisha.“I'm sorry, Ms. Lisha, it's my fault for not arranging things properly.” Harvey apologized with a smile, then turned around and gave an angry look to the two security guards.These two guys were too foolish as they did not know how to discern situations. Their thinking was too rigid, and they had no judgment at all!If he had known this would happen, he would never have let these two guys greet guests at the entrance.“You two idiots! Go collect your final paychecks and get out of here immediately!” Harvey ordered without hesitation.The two security guards immediately showed a pitiful look and looked at Harvey with pleading eyes.“Young Master Connor, we were just following your orders...”“Yes, Young Master Connor, it's not our fault...”The two security guards said helplessly.Harvey’s face turned livid with anger and he shouted, “How dare you talk back? This is outrageous!”Just then, a calm voice
Harvey was excitedly speaking, but before he could finish, Sean politely declined.“That's not necessary, Mr. Connor. We'll sit in the auction hall.”Of course, Lisha would not argue with Sean's decision, and she also thought that sitting in the auction hall on the first floor would be more lively than in a private room.Although the private room had comfortable sofas and tea and snacks, how could Lisha, as the daughter of the mayor, care about such things?“Since Mr. Lennon has decided to sit in the auction hall on the first floor, let's just sit there. The private rooms on the second floor can be reserved for even more distinguished guests.” Upon hearing Lisha's words, Harvey's face was full of bitter smiles.Lisha was the daughter of the mayor, and Sean was the commander-in-chief of the city defense army of Dorodo, making them the two giants of Dorodo.There were simply no guests in Crosac who could match their status.In fact, only the mayor of Crosac, Claremento Crosac, c
Lisha indeed had a strong interest in the culture of Dragon Kingdom, but only in terms of food and cultural landscapes, which was why she frequently visited the mainland of Dragon Kingdom as a tourist.However, Sean had never heard her mention her interest in paintings before.Lisha shook her head with a smile and said, “I'm not interested. I just want to participate in the auction.”“Oh, I see.” Sean nodded slightly.“Ms. Fifty-five bids one million five hundred thousand. Is there anyone willing to bid higher?“One million five hundred thousand going once!“One million five hundred thousand going twice!”“One—”Before the female auctioneer on the stage could announce the sale, someone else made a bid from below.“I bid one million six hundred thousand!”With this shout, the auction hall became lively again.“I bid one million six hundred and fifty thousand!”“I bid one million six hundred and sixty thousand!”“I bid one million seven hundred thousand!”“Two million!”
“This is an auction, whoever has the money gets it. If you don't want others to compete with you, then let your money do the talking!”“I bid three million and five hundred thousand!”The chaotic scene in the hall was incredibly lively, just like a marketplace.It had to be said that the female auctioneer on the stage was really good at creating hype, and the auction items this time were also very impressive, easily attracting the attention of the guests present.“Three million and five hundred thousand going once!“Three million and five hundred thousand going twice!“Three million and five hundred thousand sol—”Just as the female auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, Lisha suddenly raised her No. 55 paddle and shouted, “I bid five million!”The entire audience in the auction hall turned their heads and looked at Lisha in unison.Bidding an additional 1.5 million at once was definitely surprising to them.Besides, Lisha’s voice sounded so young, which made them even more
‘Ms. Lisha is the eldest daughter of Claremento Crosac, the mayor!’‘Who’s the woman in that private room? She must have lost her mind to compete against Ms. Lisha!’‘Doesn’t she know that offending Ms. Lisha means she might not be able to stay in Crosac anymore?’These were what all the guests in the auction hall on the first floor were thinking.Lisha also seemed to be caught off guard as well. She had already revealed her identity and offered a high price, but there were still someone who dared to compete with her.This unexpected turn of events left her stunned for a moment before she came to her senses.“Someone is actually competing with you.”Sean said with a smile.Lisha was a little angry at first, but after hearing Sean’s words, her mood quickly calmed down.Yes, what could she do even if she’s the mayor’s, Claremento Crosac, daughter?The auction was an open and fair competition based on money, and using one's status to oppress others was too domineering and would
As soon as the words were spoken, Lisha lowered her veil.In the second-floor private room, Aria, who was sitting on a single sofa holding a glass of red wine with a smile on her face, suddenly froze.‘Lisha’s not going to bid anymore?‘She actually stopped bidding?‘How could she not bid?‘Did she not really need of buying this Seven Star Sword?‘D*mn it!’Aria did not even want to buy the Seven Star Sword in the first place, but because Lisha revealed her identity and she knew that Lisha was the buyer, she decided to compete with her.She wanted to drive up the price so that Lisha could not get the Seven Star Sword at a lower cost.Now, however, the price had indeed gone up, yet Lisha had stopped bidding, now the Seven Star Sword landed in Aria's hands at an exorbitant price of 20 million dollars.‘D*mn it, she fooled me!’Aria was furious, but now she could not change her mind.“Miss…”Even Lowich’s expression was also extremely bad.“Shut up!”Aria scolded angrily.
The round shield was the size of a washbasin, with a silver-white body and almost entirely made of metal except for the handle.Moreover, the surface of the shield had complex and exquisite patterns, clearly the work of a masterful carving technique.Most importantly, there were circles of silver metal in the center of the shield, slightly different from other areas.“This small round shield was crafted by our renowned Crosac craftsman, Mr. Saint. You can see Mr. Saint’s exquisite craftsmanship and beautiful carving techniques on this shield. In addition, the center of the shield is also made of platinum, which further enhances the style of the entire shield. The starting price of this small round shield is two million, and each bid must not be less than ten thousand!”The female auctioneer exclaimed excitedly on stage.This small round shield was indeed excellent, not only beautiful but also a very high-end work of art that could also be used as a weapon.This round shield was n
