Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2364

Joaquin spoke awkwardly. "Mr. Lloyd asked that question himself, Miss. And honestly, he didn't look like he was joking."

Valerie pressed her rosy lips together, muttering in a low, annoyed tone. "That shameless bastard. Everyone keeps saying he's all-powerful and never touches women, but apparently, that's all nonsense. I actually have to admire his nerve… He even dares to make a move on me?"

Joaquin did not dare to say another word. When he saw Valerie stop responding, he quietly backed out of the room.

Valerie turned toward the direction of Suite No. 3 and sneered. "You may have the arrogance to back it up, but sorry, I won't let that slide so easily. If you want to get your hands on me, you'll have to pay a really heavy price!"

Before long, the entire auction hall was filled. When the lights dimmed, a single spotlight lit up the stage at the center.

The auction had officially begun.

A stunning figure in high heels walked to the center. The spotlight's soft, bright glow made everyone's eyes light up.

As expected, there were no ugly women working under the Reyes family. This young woman in charge of the auction was truly captivating.

She said, "Distinguished guests and attendees, welcome. "I'm the host for this auction session, Elsie Santana. It's wonderful to see everyone again!"

In Suite No. 3, Andrew had been resting with his eyes closed. When he heard the name, his eyes snapped open in surprise. When he looked down, he recognized the woman immediately.

She was the antique appraiser who used to work under Silas Vaughn at Radiant Group back in Jayrodale. It looked like she had made quite the leap in her career, now working under the Reyes family here in Chetvine.
