Lily and Henry relished every moment of their day at the beach. Having indulged in jet skiing, they decided to satiate their hunger at a local restaurant for lunch. Following their meal, they returned to their spot on the beach, basking in the sun's warm embrace until the late afternoon.As the day was winding down, Henry pointed out the almost dark sky and suggested, "Honey, perhaps we should head back to the hotel and continue our fun tomorrow." He noticed his wife's exhaustion and wanted to ensure she had enough rest for the next day's adventures.As Lily scanned the area, she observed that others were also beginning to depart from the beach and head back to their lodgings. Eventually, she acquiesced to Henry's suggestion, sensing that it was time for them to follow suit.Upon their arrival at their room, Lily decided to freshen up in the bathroom. Shortly after, there was a knock at the door, and Henry promptly answered it."Mr. Henry?" inquired the maid, seeking confirmation of h
If Daniel and Rosaline, who had entered the auction room first, had known that Henry and Lily were getting help from a high-ranking official, Daniel would have been burning with envy and resentment.As Henry and Lily entered the auction room, they were greeted with a sight of many guests already settled in their seats, awaiting the start of the event.The committee's representative approached their group, and upon learning of Sean Kingston's presence, invited him to sit in the front row as one of the honored guests. Meanwhile, Henry and Lily were relegated to the back, to fill in the remaining empty chairs."Mr. Henry, Miss Lily, if you'll excuse me, I believe we should part ways for now. While there are still many things I would like to discuss with you, I must delay it until tomorrow night," Sean Kingston said with a small smile.Lily looked over at Henry, who gave her a nod of agreement, before she turned back to the mayor. Despite being unsure of his true intentions, they couldn't
The invited guests immediately mentioned their prices, as the Master of Ceremony officially started opening the bidding."$110.000!""$120.000!""$150.000!"Within a short span of time, the bidding price had reached $200,000. Johan, who saw that, immediately opened his bid."$250.000!"Of course, the price wasn't finalized yet, as the next second another guest joined in the bidding."$270.000!""$280.000!"Rosaline, who heard the bids from the other guests start to increase drastically, immediately forced Daniel to speak up. She was worried that the dress she loved would fall into someone else's hands."Alright, Honey. It's time for me to step in!" Daniel grasped Rosaline's hand tightly to try and convince her that the dress would still go to them."$300.000!"Just as Daniel mentioned the number, another guest made a higher offer."$310.000!"Johan, on the other hand, didn't want to be left out. He voiced his bid again, which ended up at $400,000.However, the price was still too low.
All the eyes of the auction participants were drawn to the source of the sound, and found a man smiling broadly, while the woman beside him showed a worried expression.Some people started discussing amongst themselves, not knowing the identity of the two people. While others knew a little about them, especially the guest who came from Eastland City.Benjamin also noticed the figure who had just shocked the whole room, but he had absolutely no information about his background. Sean Kingston who saw the confusion on Benjamin's face immediately whispered softly."Manager Ben, those two people are Mr. Henry and Miss Lily, the son-in-law and daughter of the Wilson family in Eastland City. They..." Sean Kingston shared what little he knew about Henry and Lily.Benjamin who heard that held his breath when Sean Kingston said that Henry and Lily came from a poor little family because the Wilson family seemed to have neglected and alienated them. So, why did this man confidently bid for the au
The room fell silent after Henry made an offer of $5,000,000. If someone had taken a sip of saliva at that moment, everyone would have been able to hear it clearly. They were silent for a long time. Many in the audience opened and closed their mouths, but no words came out.The amount of $5,000,000 was indeed not a small price, but it was also not a problem for the guests here, as all of them came from wealthy families, but they would also think dozens of times about spending such a fantastic amount of money just to buy an item. Moreover, their property is family property, not a kind of personal property.Meanwhile, Henry, a man who was considered came from a poor family, had the courage to name such a large bidding price, as if the amount was not a big deal to him."This man is really rich, or just wants to continue his drama so that Mr. Daniel doesn't win the auction?""I don't know either, but judging from his serious face, I feel confident that he can afford to pay the bill. Just
"Thank you, Mr. Daniel. You made the right choice this time. Finally, after all this time spinning around, you finally realize where you are. Your destiny this time is indeed to be the defeated one." Henry smiled sarcastically, as if mocking Daniel, as he officially withdrew from the bidding. Thus, Henry was confirmed to be the winner of this auction.Actually, Daniel felt very insulted by what Henry had just said. Unfortunately, that time he really couldn't do much. He was unable to surpass Henry that night, but that didn't mean he felt he had lost completely. Daniel himself didn't say anything and immediately asked Rosaline to leave the room, even though the event wasn't actually over yet. He didn't want to wait any longer, as it would hurt his pride even more. Henry had really humiliated him in front of so many people.'Henry, I won't forget this humiliation, you've dug your own grave! I promise to make you regret this humiliation you have done to me!' Daniel promised to remember H
After the auction event, Henry met the committee to pay the bill for the auction he won. Henry came alone because Lily had previously chosen to return to the room because she felt nauseous. Actually, Henry was reluctant to leave Lily, but since she said she would be fine, he hurried to get the dress they had gotten."Wait for me, baby!" Henry muttered under his breath as he walked quickly.Arriving at the place, he immediately paid all the bills using his black card. After that, Henry headed back to his room half-running because he was still worried about Lily's condition.It turned out that when Henry arrived at the room, Lily was fine. She only felt nauseous because of the baby in her womb."Thank goodness then, I can rest easy now." Henry smiled slightly, before handing her the dress he had taken.Meanwhile, Lily was so happy when she received the dress, she even held it very carefully because she knew the price was a fantastic amount. This was the first time Lily had gotten such a
Sean Kingston who heard that Henry wanted to buy a house then offered to help, because Sean Kingston happened to have an acquaintance who was the owner of a property company. According to him, it would be easier for Henry to get the ideal house for him and Lily there. Moreover, the house they were selling was of high quality and luxury."Oh, really?" Henry raised one eyebrow. "In that case, I will visit the company you recommended, Mr. Kingston." he continued agreeing to the offer from the mayor of Eastland City.Later, Sean Kingston also offered to accompany Henry directly to the property company in question, but Henry immediately refused subtly."No need to do that, Mr. Kingston. I will go there alone. But, thank you very much for your offer." Henry argued that he did not want to trouble Sean Kingston further, especially not for his personal matters."No need to be shy, Mr. Henry. I'm glad I could help you for real." Sean Kingston wanted to help Henry anyway, he even wanted to call
