Chapter 49: Visiting The Auction House

After a stop at the cafe on his way home, August felt the day's events ease as he relaxed.

The cafe, filled with the familiar hum of chatter, offered a brief escape.

He typed out a message on the online gaming social platform to the initial buyer, apologizing for the cancellation and promising they'd be the first to hear when he had a new item.

The buyer seemed disappointed and was adamant about August selling to them but the deed was done. August kept apologizing and said it wasn't possible.

After a while, August leaned back, sipping a coffee Remi had brought him with her usual bright smile.

"So, how is Mr. Handsome today? Is business going well?" Remi teased, leaning over the counter as she took a seat beside him.

August smirked, meeting her playful gaze. "Don't worry; when I make my first million, I'll buy this place for you," he joked, raising his coffee in a mock toast.
