A short-haired lady in a cream-colored formal dress explained to the audience about a valuable item they were auctioning.Inside the box was a watch set with a Royal Rosenbourg gem, once part of the crown jewels, gleaming beautifully under the lights, leaving everyone in awe and wanting to see it up close.For a moment, this was the auction item most crowded with guests. They didn't want to miss the chance to own this watch set."That watch is so beautiful, I can just imagine how it would fit on my wrist.""I'm going to a party tomorrow, so I think I have to get this watch.""I want to give this as a gift to my mom; she'll definitely love it.""What's the opening price for a watch set?"Comments were in the air as the atmosphere grew tense as the competition for this watch set intensified.Viggo and his friend had arrived at this section. They squeezed their way through the audience to get a closer look at the watch set."This is beautiful! Are you interested in buying it?" Viggo's fr

Comments were flying in the air, filled with curiosity and surprise.“Gabriel Bruhn? Have you ever heard of that name before?”“Bruhn? I’ve never heard of someone rich in this country with that surname.”“Is he new money? I attend charity galas every year, and I’ve never seen him before.”“Despite all that, he’s so fine!”Pevita paused, glancing at Gabriel. She watched him, intrigued. His nonchalant demeanor and unfamiliar identity made her even more interested in getting to know him better.The lady in formal attire, with a broad smile, spoke. “Alright, Mr. Gabriel Bruhn. You are offering the highest price for this watch set, so you won this auction. Congratulations, sir!” she declared, followed by applause from the audience.Amidst the thunderous applause, someone suddenly interrupted. He raised his hand and spoke loudly. “Wait, wait! I need you all to stop this! I need you all to be wary of that man.” Someone, none other than Viggo, pointed at Gabriel.His impromptu statement cause

A look of anger formed on Viggo's face as he clenched his fists. He immediately raised his hand and bid. "I'll take this house for 70 million dollars!" His offer left the rest of the audience gaping in astonishment for that amount of money, but they weren't too surprised because it came from the son of the richest man in Valmont City, Mr. Klaussen. The two men stared at each other, creating tension. Gabriel smirked, curious to see how much Viggo could beat his bid. Raising his hand, he spoke confidently. "I'll offer 90 million dollars!" Viggo felt increasingly tempted to make a higher bid. This time, he couldn't afford to lose to Gabriel. However, Gabriel's offer exceeded Viggo's spending limit for this event. As the heir to the Klaussen family, he hadn't been given the power to take control of the family company, as his father, Mr. Klaussen, deemed him incapable yet. He had money, but not a substantial unlimited amount like Gabriel. Viggo was silent for a moment. He couldn't los

Even the manager of the charity gala didn't know Gabriel's true identity. He only knew that Gabriel was a representative of the Ashton family, but he wouldn't announce this information to the guests.The guests looked at Gabriel with worry and concern."His master must be so mad to find out that he has a conflict with Viggo Klaussen.""He might be protecting the mayor's daughter, but he's put himself in a difficult position.""Doesn't he know who he's dealing with?""He's digging his own grave."The whispers of the audience were like background noise to Gabriel; they didn't affect him. As for Viggo, their words felt like fuel for him because he believed he held the higher position here.Viggo took a stance, his gaze focused on Gabriel. He lunged forward, aiming an attack at Gabriel, but Gabriel quickly blocked his attack, twisting his arm, making Viggo wince in pain.He pushed Viggo, causing him to fall to the floor. The unfolding event sent shockwaves among onlookers. They didn't exp

Thunderous applause erupted throughout the room as the Fund-a-Need session for the first program concluded. The emcee displayed the donation amounts received on a projector screen and the names of the donors."Now we will move on to the second program." The emcee briefly explained again about the second program and where the funds would go.The first program was the lowest-cost one. After this, the amounts mentioned were no longer in four digits."Will anyone give 10,000 dollars?" the emcee exclaimed.Several guests raised their hands, including Gabriel. This time, he had secured the position of being the first guest to name a donation, thus being chosen as the first donor for the second program."I'll give 10,000 dollars!" Gabriel declared, followed by applause from the audience.Viggo stared at Gabriel with hatred on his face. Seeing Pevita's proud expression at Gabriel's generosity made Viggo burn inside. He regretted spending 100 million dollars on a property that ultimately faile
