Ethan didn't want to lose the fake painting, so he immediately bid the high price without mincing words."One hundred million!"When Ethan made a sound, all the guests fell silent, making the hall completely deserted. The price he offered was huge and seemed shocking, even to those who were used to big numbers in the auction world.Some of the other guests could only swallow their bitterness in smiles. The price of the painting had skyrocketed, beyond the limit of what they were prepared to pay. They felt that this painting had been too expensive for them, and they reluctantly admitted defeat in their quest to acquire it.Ethan, however, was not going to be happy if someone else tried to snatch the thing he loved. And so, even though the price was very high, the atmosphere remained tense as no one wanted to compete further with Ethan.However, the tense atmosphere was broken by a loud voice coming from a senior guest in one corner of the room. "Wait a minute!" he exclaimed, drawing eve

Treating Ethan's words as a dog barking, Sebastian held up the price board."Two million five hundred dollars!"Ethan gave Sebastian a hateful look."Aren't you listening to me, idiot?!" He shouted, his voice filling the entire auction hall, making the atmosphere that had previously subsided, now tense again.However, Sebastian didn't care. He just sneered, "You have a mouth that can never stop moving, so why don't you tie it up now?"Looking at the visitors, Sebastian continued, "Anyone here can make an offer, right? So, as long as I want it, I'll keep bidding. I'm not afraid of anyone here!"Ethan was dumbfounded as his jaw almost hit the ground. He never thought that Sebastian would insult him so directly.And until now, Ethan had never been insulted to this extent!Standing up from his seat and intending to immediately run towards Sebastian's VIP room, he shouted very loudly, "You should apologize for your death, bitch!"However, just as Ethan was about to take a step towards Seba

A middle-aged man with a well-built and muscular physique strode into the room with wide steps.Behind him were five large men carrying iron clubs.They all looked like angry elephants after seeing Ethan's condition. Obviously, they had arrived too late."Young Master, what happened to you?" The middle-aged man quickly walked past Sebastian as he approached Ethan.Unexpectedly, Ethan slapped the man in the face with his remaining left hand."Fuck you, Ronald, you're late!" Ethan yelled back. "Don't you see my current condition? Look, I lost my hand!"In a panic, Ronald asked, "Young Master, who would dare to treat you like this? I'll make him suffer a thousand times worse!""Moron, that person is right in front of your face!"As Ronald Dominic followed the direction Ethan's finger pointed, he was quite surprised to find Sebastian there.This was very strange.Ronald thought that whoever made Ethan lose his right hand must be armed, at the very least he was carrying a sword or a large

Emberly seemed to be holding back tears as she continued, "Master, with my meager salary, even after living in Corn City, I cannot send my younger siblings to school."Emberly went on to say that currently, her younger siblings were only learning based on used textbooks that were thrown away in the trash.Before they started studying the books, Emberly would erase all the answers in the question column made by previous users of the books.Some of the books were even wet and could not be read clearly.This condition made Emberly very sad because she could not provide a decent life for her younger siblings, but she had no other choice.Sebastian took a long breath and thought, "Even though Emberly has pretty enough looks and a good attitude to make a rich man willing to marry her sincerely, the stigma of society in Corn City is very bad...'With this thought, it was only natural that Emberly did not get a well-paying job beside of her beautiful appreance.Hidden Relics House took advant

Sebastian smiled broadly at Rachel, trying to encourage her, as if not taking the insult as a complicated affair. "Calm down, Rachel. We'll solve this problem."However, when Sebastian invited Rachel to go home, suddenly a couple in luxurious clothes blocked their way. Both of them looked very classy and exclusive. With a sly smile, they introduced themselves as Casimir and Seraphina. This couple was a popular and respected husband and wife team from the Geraldine family, one of the leading families in the world of socialites.Sebastian initially did not react whatsoever when they tried to shake hands with him. His facial expression remained calm and no respect was shown. Casimir sneered in a dismissive tone, "You should feel grateful that we have bothered to greet you, Sebastian."Seraphina added in a sarcastic tone, "He was just a vagrant who had gotten a small fortune. In any case, I'll always think of him as a bum."Faced with this insult, Sebastian remained casual, feeling as tho
