Vincent explained, "You better pay me well if you want me to work for you. The price that I have to pay to help you is quite the massive one.""The price you have to pay?" asked Austin.Vincent smiled deviously before turning around to make a phone call.The call was picked up in an instant, and Vincent said, "I'm no longer one of the Redmonts from today onward. Do whatever you need to do."He hung up the call, and the room returned to complete silence.Austin, alongside Ezra and Aldus were all shocked as they realized just how massive of a price Vincent had paid.It was a disastrous price to pay even for someone with tremendous power and wealth.Vincent, however, did it without as much of a single second of hesitation.That was why the three of them were so surprised.Vincent turned around and shrugged at the three of them.

Walter left just as suddenly as he arrived.Austin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.Dahlia could tell what he was thinking, and she smiled softly.

Terry became flustered, but he still tried his best to compose himself. "I believe I have the ability to take over your position as head of the Emersons, Dad. Did you know that what happened last night had caused all of our stocks to crash today? Some of our businesses had already declared bankruptcy and shut down."Itijah let out a sigh and replied, "I already guessed as much. We'll be having tough times ahead of us indeed. Walter's appearance last night had basically sealed our fate. The other families must've already started preparations to kick us while we're down when they received news about what happened."The Emersons had gathered a lot of enemies over the years as the richest family in Kandor City.Lots of people wanted nothing but the downfall of the Emersons so that they could take over their spot as the most powerful in Kandor City.But none had ever done anything in fear of being crushed by the Emersons.It was the only thing keeping the balance within Kandor City.W

Austin realized that the Clarks must have really extended their invitation out of genuine respect as Ezra described.They had no reason to challenge him.Austin stretched and replied, "I'll bring Vincent with me tonight."Ezra nodded without questioning why Austin had chosen Vincent instead of him.The truth was simply that Austin had no other choice back then. But now that he had gained a new ally in Vincent, he could finally give Ezra some time to rest.Austin headed to work as usual until 6:00 pm.He had just arrived downstairs when the roar of an engine was blasting loudly from across the street.The next moment, a black Koenigsegg was making its way toward Austin.The Koenigsegg stopped right in front of him and Vincent came out from the car. "Let's go, Austin!"Austin was left speechless as he stared at the car in disbelief.It was way too luxurious!Vincent smiled and explained, "What's wrong, Austin? Why are you so surprised?"Austin pursed his lips and got into the

The private room on the second floor had exquisite lighting.Austin and Vincent entered the room and scanned their surroundings before looking at each other.As the employee left, Austin frowned and said, "Are all private rooms in auction halls so luxurious?"Vincent was similarly in awe. "I'm as surprised as you are… They've really gone over the top in decorating the room."The corner of Austin's mouth twitched as he sat down on the recliner seat.The room had more than just exquisite lighting.The entire private room was filled with a sweet aroma, while the walls were decorated with beautiful paintings of the human physique.Austin could only wonder if he had mistakenly entered an art exhibition.He also felt awkward about being in a private room with another man and no one else.Austin realized that the private room included a full view directly facing the auction table. It was obvious that the Clarks had assigned him to a VIP area with an optimal view of the auction as t

He wasn't the slightest bit angry as he was truly interested in letting the scene continue to play out.He wanted to see Yannis' reaction when she learned the truth.Yannis smiled at Vincent and said, "You sure are a generous man to allow your bodyguard to be in the room with you, Mr. Campbell. I guess that's what makes you so much different from the other rich folk."Vincent almost laughed out loud. His face turned red as he tried his best to hold back his laughter.The scene only made Yannis even more confused as she wondered if she had said the wrong thing.Vincent waved his hands. "It's nothing, sorry. Anyway, he's a good friend of mine, and we're always together."Austin remained silent as he realized that Vincent had already caught on to his plan to keep up the act.Vincent to
