At that moment Serenity stood still, her arms folded tightly across her chest, her brows furrowed in disbelief. The room felt cold—not because of the temperature, but because of the weight of what Winston's father had just said. Her heart pounded harder as his words echoed again in her head.

“Three hundred years…” he muttered, voice laced with rage and helplessness. “That’s what his body is aging toward. In hours. Not decades.”

He was pacing now, his hands trembling, not from fear—but fury. “Someone… someone did this to my son. To a member of this family! They didn’t just attack Winston—they attacked our name.”

Serenity clenched her jaw. Her eyes darkened as she watched him struggle to remain composed. She didn’t like Winston. She never had. But this… this was far beyond personal feelings. It was about blood. About legacy.

And someone had dared to stain it.

“No,” she said sharply, stepping forward. “This is unacceptable. No one—no one—touches a member of this family and walks away. An

    Right away, hearing what the company owner had just said, Sophia immediately nodded her head in agreement.“No problem at all,” she responded with satisfaction.She then turned and gestured confidently toward Rebecca, Stella, and the other two ladies seated beside her.“Ladies,” she said, “please go ahead and conduct your examination.”But immediately, something unexpected happened.Rebecca, Stella, and the other two women didn't move even an inch from their positions.They remained completely seated, with their arms crossed casually, showing no intention whatsoever of getting up to examine the items.Their body language was relaxed, almost dismissive, as if the entire authentication process was unnecessary.After a moment of silence, Stella spoke up with calm authority.“There's no need for us to get up and confirm anything about these items,” she said matter-of-factly.Her voice carried absolute certainty as she continued. “Everything displayed on that table is fake.”Stella's tone

    The three experts continued their praise, their voices filled with genuine amazement.“This is something we absolutely were not expecting,” the first expert declared, shaking his head in disbelief.“We came here today thinking this would be a routine authentication session,” the second expert added. “But we were completely wrong.”The third expert gestured broadly at the entire collection. “We were not expecting anything even close to this level of sophistication and rarity.”All three men looked at each other, then back at the company owner.“The quality and authenticity of everything here is beyond what we typically encounter,” the first expert continued.“We were not even expecting this kind of extraordinary collection,” the second expert emphasized. “These are museum-quality pieces - no, they're beyond museum quality.”The third expert nodded vigorously. “You have literally done an exceptional job here in putting all of this together.”“The research, the connections, the resource

    At that moment, after everyone had successfully taken their seats around the conference table, the company owner stood up and gestured dramatically toward the items displayed before them.“These,” he announced with obvious pride, “are the items that I have been able to acquire for today's presentation.”His voice took on a tone of reverence as he continued. “It took me tremendous effort - truly great effort - to obtain these pieces.”The owner walked slowly along the table, his hand hovering over various items without touching them. “It took me considerable time to literally put all of these items in place and arrange this collection.”His expression became more serious. “I had to make sure that I could actually secure them, because as you'll soon discover, they are very, very high-quality items.”He paused for dramatic effect, letting his eyes sweep across the assembled group. “And they are extremely rare to find on the market today.”The company owner's voice dropped to an almos

    At that moment, upon hearing what Sophia had just said, the company owner fell silent.His jaw was visibly tight, the muscles in his face twitching with barely suppressed anger.He stood there for several long seconds, clearly struggling to control his temper.Finally, he took a deep breath and seemed to force himself to regain some composure.He adjusted his posture, standing up straighter, and reached down to straighten his jacket with deliberate, controlled movements.“Well,” he said, his voice strained but attempting to sound reasonable, “I'm not going to escalate this issue any further.”He paused, looking directly at Sophia. “And the only reason I'm choosing to remain calm right now is because of you, Sophia. Out of respect for our business relationship.”The owner's expression remained tight. “That's why I'm going to just keep my composure and not let this situation get worse.”He cleared his throat, then continued with a more demanding tone. “But before we proceed any furthe

    At that moment, after hearing what the company owner had just said, Sophia nodded her head politely.“No problem at all,” she said with a calm, professional tone. “I appreciate you making these arrangements.”She paused, then continued with quiet confidence. “However, that assistance won't be necessary.”Sophia gestured gracefully toward Rebecca, Stella, and the other two women standing beside her.“You see, this is exactly why I came with my friends today,” she explained. “My friends are definitely going to tell me what to buy and what not to buy.”Her voice remained steady and assured.“They will advise me on what's worth investing my money in and what isn't. That's precisely why they're here with me.”Sophia looked at her four companions with trust and respect. “Since they are very good at what they do - extremely knowledgeable and experienced - there's no problem at all.”She turned back to face the company owner directly. “So I won't be needing the services of these gentlemen

    Upon hearing what the company owner had just said, Sophia responded calmly and professionally.“Well, I never actually planned for this,” she explained, her voice steady. “But since my friends - my close friends - wanted to come along, and since they decided to accompany me today...”She paused and looked at her four companions with genuine warmth. “I took it upon myself not to disappoint them or depress them by refusing their company.”Immediately Sophia turned back to face the owner directly. “So this is just how the situation worked out. You have nothing to worry about regarding their presence.”The company owner nodded his head, though his expression remained somewhat forced.“Well, no problem at all,” he said, though his tone suggested he wasn't entirely comfortable with the arrangement. “I was just surprised, that's all. Yes, I'm surprised you actually came with other people.”He then turned his attention to Rebecca, Stella, and the other two women.“It is so nice to meet all o
