"As expected of you, Mr. York!"You're so magnanimous!"Truly worthy of one who will lead the entire Country H Commercial Group!"I can already see how Country H Commercial Group will rise and expand under your leadership, Mr. York!Kartier Failes gave Harvey York a thumbs up."Alright, brothers and sisters. Let's go!"Let's celebrate how Mr. York will lead Country H Commercial Group into a new era and even greater heights!"The others started to chant loudly. "A new era! Greater heights!""Long live Mr. York!"As if Harvey had already become the chairman.The more Zhuri Vaus looked at it, the more Zhuri felt suspicious. Was that how Kartier and the others always were?No matter how she looked at it, it looked like it was all an act.She instinctively gave Harvey a look and hoped Harvey was not being too full of himself, that he would treat all of their fake praises as sincere.However, it seemed like Harvey really could not see through them and was beaming smiles. "I'll l

Kartier explained in a whisper to Harvey, "You might not know this, Mr. York."But the organizer of this auction is the Thompson family, one of the ten top families in Wolsing. The true owner is one of the Four Young Masters of Wolsing, Hector."There's something peculiar about Mr. Thompson. He likes to collect all kinds of strange and wonderful treasures."He has a lot of connections in the antique industry through the use of his family's connections."That's why all the items that appear in the auction that he hosts are usually genuine and rare items."Of course, some of them are also from the black market."Since only an auction house of this level has the ability to deal with the things that cannot be brought to life."That's also why the security of this auction house is so strict."Harvey then said, "Looks like this auction house really is quite good with Hector personally overseeing this place.""That's right!" Kartier said with an inspired sigh. "The Four Young Masters

Zhuri was taken aback slightly. She thought Harvey was going to make a move against Hector, so she didn't reply immediately.Kartier, who was standing next to Zhuri, gave it a thought and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Thompson and Ms. Zimmer are here for the Eyed Bead. I heard it has a special meaning for the Zimmers.""The Eyed Bead?" Harvey mumbled.He had already given the nine Beads of Eyes to Mandy already. What was she up to auctioning for some Eyed Bead here today?Harvey took a deep breath after giving it a moment to calm his emotion down.He then waved his hand and led the others to the seats reserved for Country H Commercial Group without alerting anyone else.There was only about half an hour before the auction was going to start, and other attendees started to arrive.While Harvey was sitting at the seat reserved for the chairman of Country H Commercial Group, none of the waiting staff came to take care of him.Someone either had intentionally made it so, or someo

"3 million!"As if he was able to feel the kindness from Hector, Antonio gave Harvey a look and moved his eyes away before raising his paddle up in the air.Seeing Antonio's action, the old man said, "We have 3 million from Mr. Lee."Do we have any higher bids?"Going once!"Going twice!"All the people from Country J gave Harvey a look of disdain while the auctioneer spoke.They all looked down on him, as if announcing to the world that Harvey had no right to compete with Antonio.Everyone else in the auction house remained silent.They all knew who Hector was.When he announced Harvey's 15 million dollar bid was void, it was enough for them to learn something from that action.It meant that Hector wanted to give a favor to Antonio, who wanted the seal at all costs. That was why he didn't want the bidding price of the Seal of the Monarch to be too high.Everyone there were smart people, and they wouldn't do something foolish. Whether they were interested in the seal or not

"You…"The men and women of Country J could only grind their teeth in anger when they heard Harvey's bid.Even Antonio, who had been acting relaxed all this while, could no longer control himself.He stood up and narrowed his eyes at Harvey's direction, and said slowly, "I don't care if you're the real Mr. York or fake Mr. York, young man. But you must understand what kind of consequences there are for stirring up trouble on purpose.""Stirring up trouble on purpose?"Harvey simply shrugged."Can't you see? I really like this seal, and that's why I continually bid on it. Haven't you heard of the saying about a real man won't keep another from his prize?"When Antonio heard what Harvey had said, his face flushed in anger.He was the one who’s supposed to use that saying!But in the end?By saying that, Harvey was humiliating him openly.Harvey couldn't be bothered to listen to Antonio's threat, and gave the auctioneer a glance. "You've delayed long enough. Shouldn't you conti
