Less than an hour later, Olivia was stunned as she was dropped off at her apartment. Max had refused to answer her questions after she heard Benjamin's grandmother unknowingly reveal on that phone call that Benjamin was living in Sunspot Estate - the most luxurious and definitely overpriced living space in the entirety of New Stone City. That is, apart from estates owned privately by families of hidden tigers and dragons.

At this point, Olivia was convinced that everyone was hiding something important about Benjamin's identity from her.

Olivia saw that the receding figures of the cars had not disappeared. Therefore, she decided to secretly follow them.

Olivia was aware that she was intruding by hunting for a secret that her friends didn't believe she was ready to know, and if it was any other situation, Olivia would have respected this.

Unfortunately, her best friend was currently in danger. Plus, the most capable man that could save had suddenly gone incognito. Therefore, she really

    Across the wide sky of the huge New Stone City, a fleet of ten helicopters moved towards a single destination - Levi's Screen Town Tower's sky terrace.Inside the helicopter, placed at the center of the fleet, is none other than Benjamin Whiteridge.Currently, he's dressed in his disguise - a white three-piece suit, with leather shoes, white gloves, and a long white open robe that rested on his shoulders, protecting him from the autumn wind.Inside the helicopter with him are Anthony and Lieutenant Jason, both dressed in stylish black suits and sophisticatedly designed black and gold geometric masks.Benjamin stared out the windshield where he was seated.“How far away are we from our destination?”Anthony replied without even bothering to look at his wristwatch or any other device.“We're less than thirty minutes away from the town tower.”Benjamin nodded his head.“I heard that Uriel performed incredibly well at the Grand Auction.”Lieutenant Jason nodded his head at that.“Based o

    Henry's expression revealed a deep hatred that went as deep as a well, just at the mention of his enemy's name.“I know Uriel well enough to come up with the perfect plan to corner him and kill him. Miss Isabella, Mr. Najeeb, trust me when I say that I have a foolproof plan to catch our target. All I ask is that I get a share of the spoils.”Najeeb chuckled with a head nod.“Of course! Uriel was able to win over seventeen different gemstones with perfect ratings in terms of quality and quantity. If you can help us get what we want, you will be given a share of what we reap, naturally.”Getting the chance to take the gemstones from Uriel's hand while ending his life. This was the perfect chance to kill two birds with one stone. Juliana was glad that she was able to guide her otherwise foolish fiancé into devising this plan of borrowing someone else's power to take down an enemy that is evolving too fast for them to handle.Thus, Henry began telling the two foreigners of his plan.

    The young man had the evidential features of what you would expect from an Arabian man. Despite the modern outfit he had on, the turban gave away the region where this man is from.Isabella was confused when she heard these words.“And what do you know about my pain?”She glanced at the dead body of her favorite female bodyguard.“I just watched a dear friend of mine lose her life at the hands of that…..Figlio di puttana! (Son of a b*tch!)”The Arabian young man glanced at the dead Italian bodyguard as well.“You're right. I know nothing of your grief, and I won't pretend to know either. By the way, you should have her body packed away. It's quite unsightly to keep a corpse lying around a public area.”This Arabian man immediately received a murderous glare from Isabella, which he felt keenly. He wasn't a normal human being by any means either.“I'm sorry if I sound insensitive. You should understand people like us have long become numb to seeing subordinates lose their lives.” Isab

    The Grand Hall was almost emptied of all the guests by the time the gunshot went off.Everyone held their breath to see what had happened. Did that bullet hit the target? Where did the bullet hit Uriel's body?To be specific, the Italian bodyguards were the ones holding their breath. The woman who had pulled the trigger had done so without permission. Though it was out of righteous anger against the insult Isabella Giordano had received from Uriel seconds ago.As for the masked Whiteridge soldiers, they weren't in the least bothered, as they knew that Uriel wasn't hurt in the slightest.But Uriel didn't know this. He actually had his hands covering his face as he looked away after hearing the gunshot go off near him.Seconds later, though, he dropped his guard and hands to find that he was perfectly fine.“W…What happened?”The masked Whiteridge soldier who got in front of him immediately grabbed something off the ground, before showing it to Uriel.“I intercepted it, Sir Uriel. You'

    Hours later, the bidding section of the event was coming to an end. Over one hundred raw stones have been presented. Through these, participants have won and lost multiple rounds. Of course, for most of these participants, there have definitely been more losses than gains. But more than anyone else, Henry Den, the heir apparent of Aurora's Refinery, has undoubtedly come out as the crowned loser of this auction. With over one hundred raw stones, he didn't even get to win one good gemstone.On the extreme end of that spectrum, Uriel came out on top as the genius of all geniuses. He ended up winning seventeen different gemstones, fifteen of which are rare while the other two are precious but common.Still, Uriel had undoubtedly become the star of the event. From the way he arrived at Levi's Screen Town Tower, up to the end of this auction main event, Uriel was not only domineering, but proved himself as a master Gemologist with talent and skill above all else.As Manager Rowley announc

    Time went by, and Uriel noticed that Henry was no longer falling for his tricks, so he let down his guard just a little and focused more on bidding for the best raw stone.At the 42nd row stone, Uriel clapped and sat up straight after enduring the last few boring rounds.“This one! I think this one is really good!”The masked Whiteridge soldier sat up straight as well.“Really? How good is this one?”Uriel squinted at the TV screen, looking at every detail highlighted better by the HD screen.“I think the quantity for this one should be around 80%, while the quality should be above 90%.”The masked Whiteridge soldier nodded his head.“But do you have any idea what kind of gemstone is in there?”Uriel nodded his head slightly.“It's a rare one. I know that for sure. But as for the specifics, it's a bit hard to decipher. I think it might be a Tanzanite or a Taffeite.”The masked Whiteridge soldier gasped.“Either way, it is nothing but profitable to obtain that raw stone.”Down on the
