The auctioneer went on to speak ever so enthusiastically, “Any man who buys her, will not just take her home, but will be buying their way into the prestigious Wilmer family!”

A ripple of excitement went through the crowd as countless men, both young and old, single and married, instantly sat and fed their eyes on her exposed skin.

Her clothes were barely long enough to cover her private parts, let alone the rest of her skin, so their eyes had a lot to take in.

Seeing the anticipation in their eyes, Anna Hutton smiled and crossed her leg on top the other, then leaned back on her seat.

Gabriel Wilmer sat beside her without an iota of emotion as he stared at Ketherine Wilmer whose bright eyes were anxiously looking around.

While the excitement for Katherine continued soaring, the auctioneer smacked his lips together and continued.

“The starting bid for her is 2 million dollars.”

As soon as the words left his mouth mouth, someone raised it.

“2 million and one.”

“2 million, five hundred thousand.”

“3 million, five hundred thousand.”

“5 million…”

The bid kept getting raised even without the auctioneer butting in until a cold voice raised it even high.

“100 million.”

Everyone gasped and turned their heads towards the direction of the voice.

“100 million? For a mere woman? Does this person not know what to do with money?”

“My entire family along with our house is worth that much, but there’s someone willing to pay that high for a human?”

“A woman for that matter. He must be a fool. Only a fool would think of doing something like that.”

“I know it’s an easy way of marrying into the Wilmer family, but isn’t 100 million too much for someone worth less than a dog?”

“If she’s being sold off like this, isn’t it clear she doesn’t mean anything to the Wilmer family? Why spend such an amount for something so valueless?”

“Shut up! What do you all know? Her brother and sister-in-law are closely related to the great four families. She may be worth nothing, but her family is worth everything! Just hearing he’s a son-in-law to the Wilmer family is enough to get most of you peeing in your pants!”

The room instantly fell silent as everyone realized he was right.

After waiting several seconds for someone else to raise the bid, the auctioneer moved towards the microphone again.

“Can I get 100 million and one dollar? Anyone?”

For the second time, he was greeted with silence.

After waiting for a while with no one raising the bid, the auctioneer grimaced and proceeded to announce the winner of the bid.

“100 million going once, 100 million going twice. And there you have it! Katherine Wilmer has been sold off to the young gentleman in the second…”

The door was suddenly kicked open at this moment, abruptly cutting him off.

Everyone turned their heads to see two men in military uniform stepping into the room.

Wade Wilmer stared straight at the auctioneer and sneered coldly.

“Sold off? What is she, a commodity?”

    “Diabetic Cardiomyopathy. That’s what she’s suffering from. If you look here, you can see the muscles around her heart are weakened.” “She also has an underlying heart problem to begin with. Hence, why her diabetes is worsened and will keep getting worse.” “At this rate, merely giving her insulin injections won’t help her. She needs to go through surgery.” Although having a collected and calm look, Wade Wilmer was nowhere close to being patient, but he waited quietly for the doctor to end his explanation on what was wrong with the little girl. As soon as he finished, he promptly said, “If she needs surgery, then do the surgery. If you knew of all these, why did you have to wait this long?!” The doctor froze immediately, momentarily forgetting how to speak as Wade’s angry eyes bore into his until a stern look from him brought him back to his senses. He leaned forward and hurriedly replied, “We need her mother to sign the official document. Unfortunately, she hasn’t come since the

    The door closed shortly after and David Winslow frowned tightly, getting annoyed by the fact Wade was looking away from him. He grabbed the bars on the gate and said provocatively, “You heard that, didn’t you? I’ve been given permission to beat you to a pulp if you refuse to leave. This is your last chance to get lost!” Naturally, one would turn around and leave after being refused entrance into a stranger’s home, but the brief crying he heard from inside the house was surprisingly tugging at his heartstrings. Strange. Ever since he spent the past few years in the army, his formerly weak heart had hardened. He had witnessed numerous gory sights, most of which he brought about. So he wasn’t one to be moved even if someone’s head was suddenly hacked off his neck right in front of him. But for some reason, he couldn’t bring himself to move away from the gate.David Winslow was annoyed by their lack of compliance. “Hey, do you not use your ears for hearing? Are they really for fan

    That was all it took to put Nyla Winslow in a car to Ramsey Beckett. As she listened to the car leave the compound, a cold glint flashed past Fiona’s eyes before she glanced at the person behind her. “Call the hospital and tell them to postpone the surgery.” The person hesitated for a second as he said, “They said she needs the surgery as soon as possible. Otherwise, she might…”He abruptly stopped talking when she glanced at him sternly and lowered his eyes to the floor before he turned around and left the house. Behind them, Hazel Winslow suddenly gripped her chest tightly, her face squeezing in pain. Anselm was alarmed and quickly held her in his arm, questioning her worriedly, “Are you alright?” Hazel’s eyes pricked with tears as she continued gripping her chest tightly. “My chest…my chest hurts. I-I can’t breathe. M-my chest. An-Anselm, it hurts.”She couldn’t bear the pain any longer and burst into tears. But a few seconds later, she began drawing in raspy breaths and wi

    Meanwhile, in the Winslow Residence, Anselm and Hazel Winslow stood behind a tall and slender woman. She shielded them behind her while looking down apologetically as those in her family raged on. “This little bastard of yours has once again caused trouble. This time, he even involved a military man and made a huge mess!” “Our Winslow family has had a spotless reputation for years if not for you and your bastards, but we’ve let you stay with us because you’ve vowed to do whatever we ask you to do, but this we can no longer condone!” “The children playground’s director reached out to all his friends in the military, but none of them knows a man like the one those wealthy women described. Who knows which man that obnoxious little thing brought to cause such a mess!” “Because of this, our Winslow family is in trouble with very important people. Merely apologizing won’t fix any of it!” “Why are we still sitting around when we should’ve dragged them out and thrown them out of th

    But that thought only lasted for a moment as a crisp sound filled the air. Smack! It was the short female staff slapping one of the women. She was fuming in rage as she pulled her hair roughly. “Over the past two years, you’ve pushed me around however you like. You pay me, but you order me around like I am your slave! I’ve looked forward to doing this for a long time!” The woman who was slapped shrieked loudly in pain and held the hand on her hair to lessen the pain she was feeling. “What do you think you’re doing? How dare you lay your filthy hands on…”Smack! The staff slapped her again and gripped her hair even tighter. “Stop talking so much. Didn’t you hear the military man? If I don’t do as he says, who knows what he’ll do to me.” “If you were the one in my shoes, wouldn’t you slap me as soon as he asked you to? So don’t complain and just keep your cheeks properly so i can slap them.” Seeing this, the second staff grew confident and pulled the woman closest to her by th

    She turned to him and laughed dryly. “W-what? What we told you is what is shown on the surveillance camera. Do you really believe this little girl over five full grown adults?” Wade shifted his gaze to her with the most strange look. “I’m a military man, why would I believe a child’s words about a matter like this so easily?” “I can’t take the boy away without proof that he did what he’s being accused of. If the public finds out I punished an innocent young child without checking the facts, the military will be in trouble.” “You do know North City has enemies surrounding it. If they hear citizens are having problem with the military, they will seize the opportunity to attack.” “We wouldn’t want some strangers coming into our country to kill us, would we?” Upon hearing him, the three women sucked in a deep breath. Not because of what he said about neighboring enemy countries, but about him checking the surveillance footages. With such a concrete reason, the management would de
