The price rapidly rose to two hundred million.Even then, only one-tenth of the participants had given up on the bidding.The ones who could come here were all obscenely wealthy.Of course, there was another important reason for their determination. Seth's works were simply too rare.He had only produced two works in two years.None of them knew when their next chance would be.The scarce supply drove the demand sky-high.For many people, they were not short of money. What they lacked was influence.When they possessed something that no one else did, they would be able to hold their heads high in front of their peers. Such rare commodities represented class and bragging rights.That was precisely why the price kept rising.Alora was thrilled.Her auction house had been running for several generations, but they had never sold anything at such a high price before.In the end, the painting was sold to the girl's grandfather for 220 million dollars.The girl cheered and clench

After the auction, Zephyr regained his senses with a shudder. He instantly felt a trace of regret, and his eyes flickered with a vicious light."How dare that guy bid against me! It's all his fault!"However, this was not the time to throw a tantrum. He knew better than anyone how important this painting was.Just to be safe, he had to bring it home as soon as possible.As soon as he left the auction house, he got into his car, surrounded by a group of bodyguards, and headed straight for the airport.Zephyr and his crew did not notice that there was someone following them from afar.Naturally, it was Seth.His paintings were only worthy of those who were kind-hearted or well-respected.It would have been an insult to his name if a man like Zephyr possessed one of his paintings.He ran just about as quickly as Zephyr and his men drove.Besides, this was not even Seth's full speed. He could still go faster if he wished.Thirty minutes later, Zephyr's car was about to enter the

Seth shook his head with a laugh. "Thanks, but there's no need for that. I've already got enough money.""Oh, okay." Rosemary nodded, then caught herself. Her eyes widened. "Wait, what did you say?"Seth showed her the bank message he had just received on his phone.Taken aback, Rosemary brought the screen right up to her face and counted off the series of zeros with the tip of her fingernail.She counted several times before she was absolutely sure.She then looked up at Seth in disbelief."How did you manage this, Seth? Don't tell me... Are you secretly a wealthy tycoon? Have you been pretending to be poor all this time?"It was the only explanation that made sense.Seth was not going to tell her the truth, of course.He just told Rosemary not to worry about the money anymore. The matter had been resolved now.They could use the remaining 100 million or so for other things.Tomorrow, he would go to South City with Lily and the others to participate in the auction.It took

His internal energy pierced the man's abdomen and destroyed his core.The man opened his mouth to scream in agony.However, Seth strengthened his grip so that the man could not even scream.That man was in so much pain that he was about to faint. He glared at Seth with hatred and resentment.Now that his core was destroyed, all his years of hard work would go down the drain.Once others found out, his enemies would also come knocking on his door. He was fated to die a dog's death.Seth let go of him. The pot-bellied man was useless now.After that, Seth turned to the air stewardess and reached out a hand to help her up from the toilet seat.By now, the other flight attendants on the plane had heard the commotion and were rushing over.When they saw Seth and the air stewardess, they were shocked and instantly went on guard."Stop! What are you doing?""Let her go!"Seth secretly transferred his internal energy into the air stewardess' body to relieve some of her symptoms, gi

Her abdomen was flat and her skin was snow-white. There was no excess fat on her at all, making her look like a mermaid.She swam to Mila's side and stopped, smiling. "Mila, I can't believe there's actually a man in this world who can resist your charms. He truly is a mystery."Mila sighed. "I wanted to test if that kid was actually that straight-laced. To think he wouldn't come running even after I told him I was swimming!"Haven smiled and shook her head. "If he'd agreed to come, he certainly wouldn't get to see you dressed like you are now."Mila stretched out her slender fingers and gently tapped Haven on the forehead. "And you know it, girl."…Seth and Rosemary arrived at the Lewises' residence.Lily stood outside the door, waiting for them in person. When she saw them arrive, a sweet smile appeared on her face as she welcomed them.If the other families in South City saw this scene, they would not be able to believe their eyes.Lily was known as the cold-faced goddess.
