As Millie stepped into the auction hall, Marvin returned, “Boss, I have some bad news.”
Millie stared at him. “What is it?”
“We don’t have an identification, and we came here suddenly today without informing them in advance. Our funds are restricted.” Marvin frowned, feeling helpless.
Millie was upset. “Why did you make such a basic mistake? Don’t you know why we are here today?”
They had come for the auction, which would undoubtedly cost a lot of money. If their funds were limited, they might not be able to outbid anyone for the Aspher. They had finally located the herb, but it would surely be troublesome if it ended up in someone else’s possession.
“Boss, we rushed here too quickly. It’s my fault.” Marvin apologized, feeling ashamed.
After a brief pause, Millie contemplated the Aspher’s low bid, then calmly responded, “Let’s see how this plays out.”
Nevertheless, they continued with the bidding. If the other bidders didn’t know about the herb, Millie might just be able to win it.
“What’s our maximum limit?” she asked.
“20 million yewros, which equals ten million dollars at the exchange rate,” he replied.
Millie frowned. “20 million should be enough.”
Soon, a Musbanian woman announced in Encerian, “Collect your auction number plate here and proceed to the auction room.”
Millie and Marvin were assigned room number three. Upon their arrival, they were greeted by a grand, round stage. The room exuded luxury with its fully automated features and expansive floor– to–ceiling
windows.
Using the number plate, Millie gained access to room three. As she stepped inside, she was greeted by an exceptionally intelligent robot butler. “Welcome! There are a total of 16 bidders today. I truly hope you find something you like.
Millie reached out and tapped the robot’s head before taking a seat on a spacious couch. Just then, she noticed two men entering the opposite room. Millie glared at the man intently.
“Is William also going to bid today?” Marvin asked curiously. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Millie glanced at Marvin, feeling confused.
Marvin gestured toward the adjacent room where William was. Millie couldn’t help but feel disgusted, recalling what William had said in the bathroom moments ago.
Millie sat on the sofa, crossing her legs and resting her cheek on her hand. She looked casually in the room across from her.
The man looked familiar, but it was difficult to identify him from afar. This was because everyone at the event was dressed in a black suit and wearing a mask.

Millie was about to turn away when she suddenly remembered the person she had just met in the bathroom. He looked familiar because he was the man smoking outside the bathroom.
Shortly after, the glass in front moved down and disappeared. Then, a beautiful woman in a black business suit stood on the circular stage. She was the auctioneer for the night.
“Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to kick off our auction. Allow me to present the items up for auction tonight.”
Millie’s gaze was captivated by the woman standing on the circular stage. Moments later, a magnificent blue screen materialized in every room, projecting a display of the auction items.
The opening item tonight was a diamond bracelet, starting at two million yewros. Following that was a necklace donated by the wife of Musbane’s president, with a starting price of five million yewros.
The third item of the night was the Aspher, a valuable medicinal herb from Yerwick, starting at two million
yewros.
Staring at the items on the screen, Millie couldn’t help but sigh. A herb like Aspher was a treasure, yet it was priced as low as diamond bracelets. The person who decided to auction off Aspher must be incredibly foolish.
Millie exclaimed in disbelief, “He must be out of his mind!”
Marvin gazed at Millie. “What did you say?”
“The person who put the Aspher up for auction is insane and stupid.” Millie was furious as she valued rare medicinal herbs greatly.
