CHAPTER TEN.
10.Mrs. China stepped up, her voice loud enough for everyone to hear. Alright, folks, let's get this auction going! We've got a special item today, straight from Mrs. Ella Ashburn herself. Whoever wins this doesn't just get the item; they get Mrs. Ashburn's attention and respect too.The crowd got all excited. As soon as they understood what she said, people started trying to get in good with Mrs. Ashburn. They crowded around the auction area, whispering compliments, and basically trying to flatter her, hoping she'd notice them. Everyone was watching Finn Rowe in the VIP section, just sitting there, taking it all in. He didn't move, didn't say anything, and didn't even crack a smile. He was totally focused on the last item, number 15.People started whispering about him. Is he broke? He hasn't bid on anything, someone mumbled. Others nodded in agreement, while Adrian and Elara looked annoyed. They figured Finn was just nervous, unsure of himself, or waiting to ask them for money. Ela

9.Adrian and Elara stomped through the hall, faces tight with frustration. They'd spent the whole morning planning how to deal with Finn Rowe, and seeing him chilling in the VIP section, all calm and collected, just made them madder. Elara whipped out her phone and called someone at the Ashburn Group. Check today's VIP list, she snapped. Is Finn Rowe on it?A second later, they got their answer, and they both froze. He's not on the list, the person said. The only way he's in there is with a VIP trial card. He's not officially anyone.Elara's lips tightened. A trial card? That jerk is faking being a VIP, she muttered, disbelief mixed with anger. Adrian's jaw clenched. We'll expose him, he said, his voice low. He won't get away with this.Meanwhile, Finn was quietly sitting in the VIP corner. The fancy band on his wrist caught the light, a low-key sign of power that got people looking. He saw three young guys come up, all from rich families. They bowed a little, handing him their busin
CHAPTER EIGHT.
8.Adrian and Elara showed up at the place, and she was steamed to see Finn Rowe chilling in VIP with his band on full display. She was all, He shouldn't even be here! Someone do something!Adrian patted her shoulder, Relax. Finn's gonna get what's coming to him today. Trust. They strutted inside, eyes locked on Finn.As soon as they got to VIP, Adrian lost it. He flags down security, ranting that Finn wasn't legit. He's not a member! Get him out now!The room started buzzing. People were confused about what all the fuss was about. Elara and Darius jumped in, throwing insults and questioning Finn's right to be there.Finn just sat there, cool as a cucumber. He raised a hand and said to security, Are you letting anyone make stuff up here? Looks like you messed up. He had this quiet authority thing going on. I think you should fix your mistake.Security looked at each other, then nodded. He's right, one said. You insulted a guest and made a scene. Either leave quietly, or it won't be pr

7.The lounge went quiet as Finn Rowe stood next to Mr. Galton. The crowd, who'd been laughing at him, now just stared, confused. Darius, red-faced, pushed forward, unable to hold back. Why are you siding with this nobody? he yelled at Mr. Galton, while sneering at Finn.Finn glanced at him, his eyes calm. Get them out of here and cancel any deals with them, now, he told Mr. Galton, his voice firm.The room went silent. Darius blinked, surprised that Mr. Galton seemed ready to listen. What? Are you serious? he shouted, his voice getting louder. You can't do this for a fool like him. He's nothing. Why are you listening to him?Mr. Galton didn't react. He looked at Finn, then nodded to the guards. As you wish, he said. Right away, Darius and the others were being taken out, complaining the whole time. Finn didn't even blink. He stayed cool, his eyes steady.As they were dragged away, Darius kept yelling insults, calling him a nobody who had no right to give orders. Elara, next to him, r
CHAPTER SIX.
6.A bunch of black Range Rovers screeched to a halt outside the Galton lounge, and heads swung their way. People waiting to meet Mr. Galton inside the hotel couldn't believe their eyes. The cars were shiny and black, and the low rumble of the engines seemed to shout, Power! Finn got out of the first car, a band on his wrist glinting. He walked coolly, like he owned the place.The waiting crowd was itching with curiosity. Whispers flew fast. Who's that? someone asked. Is he Valia royalty? another wondered. Everyone stared, unsure what to make of the guy swaggering in with such confidence.Inside, Elara spotted him first. Her eyes popped, then her brother-in-law and brother saw him too. Adrian, who was crushing on her, just froze. They hurried over, looking ticked off. What are you doing here? Elara snapped, blocking his path. Who said you could come here and mess with us?Her brother-in-law and brother jumped in, raising their voices. You don't belong here. Get lost before you embarra
