At that moment, upon seeing that the effects of the substances he had secretly mixed into Elizabeth's drink were clearly starting to take hold and compromise her ability to think clearly or resist his advances, Raymond calmly turned off his phone without making the promised call and slipped it back into his suit jacket pocket.

    Benjamin's voice rose with excitement about the potential rewards. “So that simply means they are even going to triple or even double the investment amount they were planning to give to you!”His words painted a picture of Elizabeth becoming a hero in the Black family's eyes through exposing David's supposed crimes.At that moment, upon hearing Benjamin's detailed plan for exposing David and gaining additional favor with the Black family, Elizabeth felt a surge of renewed hope and excitement.Elizabeth nodded her head enthusiastically and said, “Wow, I wasn't even thinking along those lines, but now I fully understand the incredible scope and potential of all of this!”Her voice carried growing excitement. “Exposing David's criminal behavior will simply give me even more reward and recognition than I originally planned for!”Elizabeth's tone showed she was energized by the possibility of achieving multiple victories simultaneously.Immediately seeing Elizabeth's enthusiasm for the p

    At that moment, upon hearing Dr. Silver's dismissive suggestion that they should go inside rather than waste time on unimportant people, David literally nodded his head in agreement.“Well, no problem then,” David responded with calm confidence. “Let's go inside and get this auction started.”His tone carried the relaxed authority of someone completely comfortable in this exclusive environment and unaffected by Elizabeth's earlier verbal attacks.Without wasting another second on the confrontation or giving Elizabeth and Benjamin any further acknowledgment, Dr. Silver literally led the way toward the entrance.David stylishly and confidently followed her from behind, his posture and demeanor showing he belonged in this world of wealth and exclusivity.His calm confidence was a stark contrast to Elizabeth's earlier accusations about his supposed worthlessness and desperation.However, Dr. Silver wasn't even content to simply walk ahead and allow David to follow at a distance like a sub

Who is this man that just drove in?” voices asked with genuine confusion and interest.The questions multiplied as more people tried to identify the stranger. “What is going on? Who is he exactly?”Others joined the speculation with more direct inquiries. “Has anybody seen him before at previous exclusive events?”The crowd's curiosity was obvious as they tried to place this mysterious arrival. “Does anybody literally know who this person is or what family he represents?”Immediately, in response to these questions about David's identity, many people in the crowd shook their heads negatively, indicating they had no previous knowledge of him.
