Capítulo 490: I Won't Do a Losing Bet

"May you enjoy the auction, CEO Xu and Mr. Zhang."

An attendant in a neatly pressed uniform welcomed Calix and Edward at the grand door of the auction hall. The silver card addressed to Calix Xu was already in the former's hand.

More guests, all dressed in expensive outfits, loitered in the hallway outside, waiting to hand in their invitations before being let in. The giant clock on the wall struck six-thirty.

"Thank you."

Calix smiled faintly at the attendant before making their way inside the auction hall. Edward quietly followed him from behind. Their steps were steady and unhurried.

Shimmering silver and midnight blue draped the grand, elegantly lit ballroom. The huge chandelier cast a warm glow over the room, followed by smaller lights.
