Henry Den couldn't believe how things had turned out, and he was running as he was being made fun of. It was safe to say that he had practically wasted $6 million.

“A fucking Garnet?! Are you fucking kidding me right now?!”

Juliana placed a hand to soothe her fiancé.

“Henry, don't think too much about it. There are bound to be losses incurred in this gamble if an auction.”

Henry had a bitter expression on his face.

“Yeah, but I'm already losing this much on the first raw stone. What does that say about my ability as a genius gemologist?”

Juliana was quickly reminded that this grand auction is set up to find the genius amongst geniuses. Henry wasn't the only one who was affected in this first round. Every single participant who activated the green light and joined the bidding battle for Raw Stone Number One also felt humiliated by the result.

After all, the fact that this gemstone turned out to be a cheap one is a testament to how poor their skills as professional gemologists are.

    After speaking those words, he glanced down with a slight look of guilt.“But even after all that, things still weren't super easy for Anthony, not until after the first few months of him living with me.”He chuckled with a sarcastic tone.“It's funny now that I think about it. Lieutenant Jason was also his bully. At Sunspot Estate, Anthony was looked down upon by the Whiteridge soldiers severely, and I had to step in a couple of times before things got better.”Herbert McKlin paid particular attention to this narration.“And? Then what happened?”Benjamin had that warm smile on his face as he kept talking about Anthony.“And then I made it impossible for any one of my soldiers to be able to avoid him. For the many missions that we were on, I would force them to work together. They had no choice but to cooperate with one another. Lieutenant Jason looked like he was about to burst from anger many times during these missions, and Anthony…Anthony had mastered the art of not caring about

    Benjamin patiently waited for the files to be placed on the table before him.Without even looking at it, he spoke up.“Actually, Grandpa, this won't be necessary. I've already chosen my future General and Prime Estate’s head butler.”The room grew tense a bit, with Herbert and Lewis glancing at each other while Hunter sat back with a calm expression.“Oh, yeah? And who are they?”Benjamin could already pick up on the tense atmosphere, but he pretended otherwise as he cleared his throat.“I want Lieutenant Jason Coal for my general, and I want Chauffeur Anthony Wood to become the prime estate's head butler when I take over.”The tension got higher as Hunter's voice got calmer and deeper, carrying a hint of displeasure.“Is that smart? I get why you would choose Lieutenant Jason, even though I would prefer you went through the list of candidates that General Lewis took a careful, long time compiling first, but the chauffeur? You want the last living son of the traitorous Wood family t

Though it's been said that his humiliation today will be a stain he would never come back from, not with the way Benjamin had dealt with him. Humiliating him from the start, only to let him go after knocking him unconscious with just a stare.Benjamin had already aura-farmed off of Elder Biscroft's misery so hard, that even those who don't like him wouldn't help but admire him.As for the other five members, they definitely hold a grudge against Benjamin but they know ther

    Veronica couldn't stop pacing back and forth.“Is this it?! Is this really it?! I've lost everything I worked my entire life for?! All to that newcomer, and I'm supposed to just…take it in stride?! Mom, Dad, I've been made an utter fool of!”Hannah and Chad could only glance at each other with unsure eyes, not even knowing how to comfort their daughter.That was when someone opened the room door and casually walked in. It was a maid, but there was something very peculiar about her.The maid looked humble at first, her back hunched as she quickly walked into the room with her cleaning supplies. She looked up and noticed the family if you were there, making her quite surprised.“Oh! Madam Hannah, Master Chad, and Young Madam Veronica, I had no idea that someone was in here! I just came in to clean this place, and I…”Hannah rudely interrupted the maid, her anger over everything going on was dumped on this innocent employee.“And so fucking what?! You came in to clean. Who gives a damn!

    Veronica couldn't believe what she was watching. If the many ways that today could have turned out, she never thought this was what she would be seeing on a large holographic screen, with every single member of the family.“Was this always the plan?”Her whispered words got the attention of her mother, Hannah Whiteridge, who looked just as confused and helpless as she does right now.Veronica continued, her voice having very little life in it as she spoke with a dazed expression.“Was this always Grandpa's plan? To abandon me once someone else he deemed better came along. He didn't even know of Benjamin's existence till last year, and what? He sabotaged all of my achievements just to make way for the son of Uncle Dallas?”The name mentioned made Hannah share a dark look with her husband, Chad Hornet, before staring off into the space of nothingness with an even more sinister expression.To the changes in her mother's expressions, Veronica was none the wiser, too deep in her own emoti

    “Goodness! Did Elder Biscroft just pee himself?!”“In front of so many people?! Fuck, that's embarrassing!”“Ugh! What is he doing?! As if he hasn't humiliated himself enough!”“Do you think, maybe, Young Master Benjamin is going a bit too far with this?!”“Bitch l, what are you talking about?! We all saw the hell of our Young Master Benjamin, just because he can, without the slightest regard for the great master himself. He was recklessly arrogant, and hopefully, this will be a reminder to him that he should never assume power in a system where he knows he's not the king.”A lot of people have lost respect for Elder Biscroft through this incident, and it will definitely affect the way he's regarded from now on. It seems he has been marked by this humiliation, and it will remain an awful stain on him for the rest of his life.Hearing some of the words of ridicule directed towards him, Elder Biscroft could no longer take it anymore. His eyes rolled to the back of his head and he fell
