“I don’t know who you are, but I will not let you talk about my Chris like that. Unless… you want to end up bankrupt too?” she said easily.Charlotte shook slightly. She won’t let tonight ruin all the hard work she has put in the Woods corporation to waste all because Chris.She turned to Veronica, “Just drop it, Vee.”Then she continued, facing Chris. “You haven’t answered my question. Did you get the VIP invite from Michelle?” she asked again.“That… is none of your business.” Chris responded with a smile.“Chris! I know, I hurt your fragile male ego when we got divorced. But it was your fault and you know it too!” she accused.“Excuse me?” Chris asked, bewildered.“When you showed up today, all powerful… for a second, I thought, you finally got your life together. Guess you are a disappointment after all.” She said, shaking her head.“Oh you are one to talk.” Chris looked at her in disgust.“It doesn’t matter! Because you are still a loser. All you do is to hide behind powerful and

Just as they were wondering who Chris Greene in, an elegant lady with porcelain-like skin and gorgeous blonde hair walked in.“What’s wrong with my fiancé putting a few CEOs in their place?” Michelle Antonio said with a huge smile.She walked straight to Chris and immediately locked hands with him.Chris looked at her confused.Fiance? He last time he checked he was recently divorced and is currently single.He tried to say something to her but her innocent gorgeous smile melted his stone-cold heart.“Why does she look so familiar?” he asked himself.Michelle’s voice broke out again, “Chris Greene is my savior and the love of my life. That should give him every right to do whatever he wants to.”“What!? He is engaged to the Michelle Antonio?” Kent couldn’t help but to exclaim as he said.“I didn’t know he had ties to the Antonio family.” Jason said in disbelief.Charlotte shook violently with anger and jealousy, “When were you… uh! Chris! How did you end up like this?”Chris looked at
Chapter Sixteen
“As soon as Mr. Greene gives the order, we can have you all disappear.” Aileen said frankly.Charlotte and the others flinched slightly.“Mr. Greene, don’t you think that’s a bit overboard??” Mr. Tom asked“How so?” Chris responded.“Well, like we said, it was all a misunderstanding. And we are even willing to offer something to make up for it.” Kent quickly said.“You think I need your money?” Chris asked them, stunned by their foolishness.“Yeah. Between the three of us, we covered the entire market in the city. Dining, leisure, fashion, hospitality, you name it!” Jason said.“Not to brag, Mr. Greene. But, we hold all the cards as far as industry is concerned. And you are not the dealer.” Tom said proudly.“You sure about that?” Chris casually asked.“You are not high enough on the ladder.” Tom said angrily.“Tom Worth.” Aileen tried to warn him.“Oh, please, Ms. Aileen. I respect Mikaelson’s authority. But this man… is just another VIP at an auction house. I don’t care if he got in
Chapter Fifteen
“If you are the real deal, why don’t you show us something we haven’t seen before?” Veronica asked with an attitude.“Oh please, you would faint from the shock.” Chris responded calmly.“Shut up, Chris! All you do is to talk as if any of us would ever believe you.” Charlotte said mockingly.“Fine. If that’s what you want, we’ll give it to you. Aileen, tell them who I am.” Chris said as he faced Aileen.Aileen nodded slightly, “If you think Mr. Greene is just here on a VIP experience package, you’re wrong! He leaked that fake intel on purpose to see who would fall for it. Mr. Greene is actually Mikaelson syndicate’s ultimate guest of honor.”Everyone stared at her dumbfounded, shock striking through their bones.“What!? No way!” Fabio said in disbelief.“So, there are actually two VIPs here tonight?” Mr. Tom also asked in disbelief.‘The first one’s Ms. Michelle. That I know. But, you are saying the second one is… this guy?” Kent said pointing angrily at Chris.“He is on par with Anton
Chapter 14
In a private room at the auction house, news got to Ms. Michelle Antonio that her item was sold for 10 million.“What? My painting just sold for 10 million!? Who is the buyer?” she asked excitedly.“It was purchased for a Mr. Chris Greene, ma’am.” Her assistant Angelica told her.“Chris Greene…” she thought for a second.She remembered the little boy that had saved her when she was being chased by a bull dog.She remembered the boy had said his name was Chris Greene.She gasped excitedly, “We are going to the auction, Angelica. I have to meet him in person.”She happily walked out of the room.Back at the auction room, Aileen continued with the biddings.“Starting at $100, 000.” She said pointing at a gold necklace.“300,000.” Kent raised his hand.“700, 000.” Mr. Tom countered.“How much did we spend?” Fabio asked Charlotte in a low tone“Three million. Chris is still the top sender of the day so far.” Charlotte responded.“Fuck! Fucking charity auction. They are not even selling any
Chapter Thirteen
Fabio, Charlotte and Veronica turned sharply in disbelief.Peter Kent laughed out, “Look at this low life trying to buy back what little remains of his dignity.”“What did he just bid? A hundred thousand!?” Jason asked in disbelief.“That’s probably his entire net worth.” He added.“Jesus, Chris. Of all things, that’s what you are going to bid on?” Fabio asked in disbelief.“I made my move. The ball’s in your court now.” Chris said as he shrugged his shoulders.“I told you. I’m not going to let you go home with anything today. Not even trash like this.” Fabio said, determination evident in his voice.“200,000.” He said confidently.Chris smirked but a memory surged through.He remembered rescuing a little girl from a bull dog when he was younger.“Could this memory be connected to this item?” he asked himself.But now was not the time to be distracted so he continued to bid. “500,000.”“1 MILLION.” Fabio countered.“1 million is chump change to the DeLuca family. But for Chris… that w
