Do you really think you’re untouchable? Well, we don’t fear you.
Finleys face instantly paled.
Among Gabo Creeks three martial arts clans, the Onyx Serpents and Hidden Dragons were sworn enemies
Acting up on Onyx Serpents territory was practically suicide, and even Hidden Dragons could not protect him if something happened
To everyones amazement, Silas hurried over to Kingsley with a respectful smile.
Mr. Baldwin, welcome to our establishment
Please be merciful and overlook this incident.
Kingsley raised an eyebrow.
Mr. Vaughn, are you trying to protect this idiot? The Onyx Serpents and Hidden Dragons are mortal enemies
Why would I protect him? Silas explained with a wry smile
Its just that if you handle him here at our doorstep, Hidden Dragons might come asking questions later, causing unnecessary trouble.
Kingsley nodded thoughtfully.
Fine
I’ll let it slide for you.
Silas face lit up with joy.
Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Baldwin
Please, come with me.
Weve prepared The Vault just for you.
Without hesitation, Kingsley strode into the auction hall, flanked by Lauren and Francesca.
For a moment, the crowd was stunned.
Then, an uproar erupted
Who the hell is this guy? Why is Mr. Vaughn treating him with such respect ? Did you see that? Silas completely dismissed Finley like he was a nobody, but he practically groveled before Kingsley like he was someone untouchable! Its unbelievable
! Michael, Harvey, and even Finley all got put in their place by this newcomer tonight.
Finleys face darkened as he listened to the discussions
He had expected Silas to bow to him, but instead, Silas had shown him no respect and kowtowed to Kingsley
The contrast made it clear to everyone that Finley was nothing compared to Kingsley.
Hannah turned to Harvey with a cold smile.
Didnt you just say Finley would kill Kingsley? Things turned out quite differently from what you predicted! Harvey opened his mouth but could not find the words to explain.
He, too, was shocked by Silas respect for Kingsley.
That pretty boy must be riding on Mr. Yates connections to get such treatment from Mr. Vaughn, Michael mocked dismissively
Harvey quickly seized the opportunity.
Thats right! Mr. Vaughn and Mr. Yates are close friends
Kingsley is just hiding behind Mr. Yates influence to save his skin.
Finley growled, Marvin may be Jayrodales richest man and quite the figure.
But if I want to deal with Kingsley, he wont dare interfere.
This isnt over ! Michael and Harvey exchanged a glance, their eyes brimming with malice and cold calculation.
With the brute Finley joining their side, they felt confident Kingsley would eventually fall.
The underground auction hall at Radiant Group was not particularly large, but its decor was nothing short of extravagant.
The Vault was the most prestigious suite there, usually reserved for family patriarchs and Jayrodales wealthiest elite.
Under hundreds of envious stares, Kingsley and his companions walked in leisurely.
The view of the auction from here is amazing! Francesca exclaimed with genuine excitement.
Lauren glanced around with her discerning eye, finally nodding in approval.
Not bad
Truly worthy of its reputation.
However, Kingsley was not interested in the surroundings.
He simply sat down on the plush couch and waited for the Celestial Nymphaea to appear.
Lauren turned to him with a curious smile.
Dr. Baldwin, are you and Mr. Vaughn close? Not particularly, Kingsley replied, shaking his head.
I just bought a jewel from him once.
You mean that 7.5 million dollar King of Diamonds ? Francesca asked in surprise, to which Kingsley simply nodded
Francesca was amazed.
The price tag aside, most people couldnt even buy it from Mr. Vaughn if they wanted to it was practically priceless.
How did you convince him to sell it to you? I gave him an offer he couldnt refuse, Kingsley said casually.
Both women were intrigued.
What kind of offer? With an indifferent tone, Kingsley replied, The leader of the Onyx Serpents is Silas boss.
I once treated the Onyx Serpents heir, and he owed me a favor for that, I brought it up, and he made one phone call to Silas.
Lets just say Silas got an earful and handed me the King of Diamonds without hesitation.
The two women nodded in understanding, knowing Kingsleys unfathomable medical skills.
Even someone as powerful as the Onyx Serpents leader might need his help.
Nonetheless, they did not know that Kingsleys connection with the Onyx Serpents ran much deeper.
That so called heir did not just visit Kingsley for medical advice he practically groveled in Kingsleys presence, addressing him with endless deference like a devoted lackey.
As Jayrodales elite arrived for the auction, a stunning woman in an elegant dress took the stage as auctioneer and announced the start.
The first few items were unremarkable just antiques, ornaments, and artwork that did not interest Kingsley much
Lauren and Francesca were there mainly for social networking
They bid on items they liked but mostly sat beside Kingsley, watching the proceedings.
Dr. Baldwin, Lauren asked, didnt you have something specific you wanted to bid on today?
As Lauren turned to look at Kingsley, she quickly caught the eye of several onlookers. Yes, theres a small item I’m interested in, Kingsley replied with a smile
Is it a medicinal herb, Kingsley? Francesca asked, and Kingsley nodded..
Yes, a Celestial Nymphaea.
Francesca thoughtfully explained, The Celestial Nymphaea is a premium medicinal herb, highly valued by medical experts and serious collectors.
Though in Jayrodale, unlike metropolises like Chetvine, there probably wont be many interested bidders you should get it easily.
Just as she finished speaking, the host, Elsie Santana, pulled back a red cloth downstairs, revealing a perfectly preserved Celestial Nymphaea.
She announced, Distinguished guests, tonights item is quite special.
Its not a priceless jewel or a masters artwork, but rather a professionally authenticated medicinal herb thats at least 500 years old truly a rare find that interested parties shouldnt miss.
Despite Elsies enthusiastic presentation and perfect smile, the response was lukewarm.
Clearly, the wealthy audience either did not understand or needed such herbs.
Stop wasting time! Whatsso special about some dried plant? Its just worthless grass, someone shouted from the crowd
Yeah, show us the good stuff! Who needs medicinal herbs these days? Were not practicing martial arts here ! Ms. Santana, instead of going on about this useless herb, why don’t you hike up that gorgeous dress of yours
? Give us all something worthwhile to admire ! More crude comments followed, causing widespread laughter as the crowd hoped to catch a glimpse of more of Elsies beauty.
Disgusting pigs! Francesca muttered angrily, her face twisted in disgust.
Lauren, however, found amusement in the situation.
With a mischievous glint in her eye, she leaned closer to Kingsley, her voice teasing.
Dr. Baldwin, are you curious about what lies beneath Ms. Santanas dress? Kingsley cleared his throat awkwardly.
Well, I hadnt thought about it.
Lauren leaned closer, her warm breath brushing against his ear as she giggled.
don’t be shy, Dr. Baldwin
If you’re interested, I could wear something similar for you someday.
I promise it would be even more impressive than Ms. Santanas ! Her seductive gaze and the faint, intoxicating scent of her perfume nearly made Kingsley lose his composure.
This woman was becoming bolder by the day.
112 Francescas cheeks burned as she watched from the side.
