Gabe explained to Sean and Zander. After all, favonovel.com had lived in Midwich for five years and surely knew more about Midwich than Sean and Zander.
“Mr. Lennon and Zander, today’s auction is held by the Harris family, one of the four leading noble families in Midwich. The Harris family is matched only by the Jensen family, the Sheldon family, and the Yale family. You’ve met members of the Jensen family just now. The Sheldon family and the Yale family are also here for the auction…”
“Look over there. The old man in the first row on the far left is Caden Sheldon, the patriarch of the Sheldon family, and the one next to favonovel.com is his granddaughter, Luna Sheldon.”
Sean and Zander looked over curiously.
They knew Benji was targeted by the Sheldon family because favonovel.com rejected their heiress, Luna. It was why the company faced a capital chain rupture issue.
Now they had met Luna herself.
The heiress of the Sheldon family was indeed beautiful. Although favonovel.com was only in favonovel.com early twenties, favonovel.com was elegant like a lady in the Middle Ages.
The patriarch of the Sheldon family, Caden, looked like favonovel.com was over 70 years old. However, favonovel.com was energetic.
“Mr. Lennon and Zander, look to the far right. Sitting in the first row on the far right is the head of the Yale family, Sherleen Yale, and favonovel.com son Sherman Yale.”
The head of the Yale family, Sherleen, was a woman in favonovel.com 40s, close to 50 years old, but favonovel.com took great care of herself. Her skin was fair and tender.
People would probably think favonovel.com was only 30 years old.
The woman was beautiful, but favonovel.com had an intimidating aura. No wonder favonovel.com was the head of the Yale family.
Her son, Sherman, was handsome and buff. One could tell favonovel.com worked out regularly.
A man like that was many girls’ Prince Charming.
“Sitting in the middle of the front row is the patriarch of the Jensen family, Fernando, and his son Jonathan. Though Fernando apologized, you mustn’t underestimate Fernando, Mr. Lennon. The Jensen family’s unfathomable, and Fernando’s scheming,” Gabe warned.
He was concerned that Sean and Zander underestimated Fernando and fell into his trap.
Sean smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry. I’m not that stupid…”
Gabe breathed a sigh of relief and said with a chuckle, “The Harris family set the Sheldon family, the Jensen family, and the Yale family’s seats so far apart in their auction because they were afraid of them making a scene. After all, the top four families have always been at each other’s throats forever.”
“Do you have any inside information about what’s going on auction today?” Sean asked.
Zander also wanted to know the answer, so Zander stared at Gabe when Sean asked.
Gabe said with a wry smile, “What inside information can I have… But I did hear that today’s auction is unusual and that the final item is of great value.”
“Really?” Sean nodded thoughtfully.
The auction had finally begun.
There was a young man on stage. According to Gabe, the young man was Keith Harris, the heir of the Harris family.
After letting out a cough, Keith glanced at the audience and said, “Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend the Harris family’s auction. Please rest assured that the Harris family’s auction will be an eye-opening and satisfying event for everyone here. The auction begins now!”
The first auction item got on stage.
It was a landscape painting.
According to Keith, the landscape painting was a Two Butterflies painting by Vincent van Gogh, a famous painter in history.
Vincent van Gogh was good at painting butterflies. Besides, this painting was both antique and art, so it was expensive.
“Bidding starts at five million dollars for the Two Butterflies painting. Each price increase must be no less than 50,000 dollars. The auction begins now!”
