The person speaking was a youngster in his twenties. He was wearing a sports outfit while sitting cross-legged.
Kneeling in front of favonovel.com was a waitress from Treasure Studio.
Opposite favonovel.com was an old man with white hair who looked energetic despite his age. This old man was none other than Grandmaster Merlion!
He said, “I don’t think I’ve seen favonovel.com before…”
He continued, “However, he’s sitting beside my apprentice, Sean. So, favonovel.com must be his friend…”
The youngster was taken aback and seemed to be more excited. “Since he’s Sean‘s friend, he’s one of your people too. And your people are my people. If that’s the case, favonovel.com has the right to be crazy. I’ll forgive him…”
Grandmaster Merlion laughed at his comment.
In the hall, Bailey continued to introduce the ruby necklace. “This necklace is a rare collectible. Isn’t anyone interested in it? If you raise the bid a few more times, this necklace could ultimately be yours. You can gift it to the woman you love and live happily ever after.”
The hall was silent as the bidding price was currently at 500 million. They could use this money to secure different women for a lifetime. To them, it was a loss to gift a woman a necklace worth 500 million. The truth was that most of them couldn’t afford to pay such a price.
Since no one spoke, Bailey raised the gavel and said, “Once again, congratulations on obtaining this ruby necklace!”
The crowd applauded and looked at Remus. They nodded at him, hoping to get acquainted so favonovel.com might offer them help with their business in the future.
Remus only smiled back at them.
Bailey had the staff to send over the necklace and asked, “Sir, it’s rare to see two treasures being bid away in succession by the same person. May I please know your name?”
Everyone looked at favonovel.com expectantly.
Remus didn’t hide his identity and said, “Remus Cosby…”
Remus Cosby?
No one recognized this name. Not only had they not heard of this name in Sturwad, but even the prominent families in the provincial capital also didn’t have that surname.
Could it be that favonovel.com came from abroad?
Suddenly, someone shouted, “F*ck! Are you Remus Cosby from Neptuna? You‘re the business partner of Ms. Lotus from Centurio, right?”
Due to his reminder, everyone suddenly remembered who Remus was. He was valued by Ms. Lotus and rose to fame in a day. Although they had never seen him, they had heard of his name.
“Mr. Cosby! Sorry for not recognizing you!”
“Mr. Cosby, you‘re talented and handsome. The rumors were right!”
The people around favonovel.com started to show their respect.
Remus might be a wage earner. However, favonovel.com had a powerful supporter behind him. The Lotus family was an extremely powerful family in the country. Jean Lotus might not represent favonovel.com entire family, but favonovel.com was still someone that shouldn’t be messed with.
Remus laughed. “If there’s a chance to cooperate in the future, I’ll be waiting for all of you in Neptuna.”
Although Remus had no intention of starting a business, Jean did, so favonovel.com was helping favonovel.com get some connections.
Suddenly, there was a sneer in the crowd, and it was Mr. Lawson. He stood up and said, “I thought you were some rich kid, but it turns out you’re just a beggar. And you guys are trying to flatter him? That’s the wrong decision. He failed to assassinate Ms. Lotus, so favonovel.com chased favonovel.com out. Now, Ben Skylar from the new rich household is favonovel.com new business partner. This guy here is just a useless nobody! He escaped Neptuna and actually came here!”
“What?” The crowd was shocked.
Even Remus was shocked to know that Ben had become Jean’s business partner.
Did favonovel.com think favonovel.com was worthy of that position?
Seems I have to go back and have a good chat with him…
Mr. Lawson sneered and looked at Remus with a twisted expression.
“Can’t believe a useless bastard like you would come and show off at this auction. I almost believed your act. I‘m furious right now, and do you know the consequences of that?”
