“Brother, what are you saying? What mysterious woman? What professional bodyguard? And why was Fane there?”
After hearing her brother mumbling to himself, Tanya was confused.
“Oh, so this happened. When I arrived today, I realized…”
Timothy looked at the crowd and started speaking about this afternoon’s events.
“Fane actually hit Master Hugo? That woman used 500 million bucks to bid for the luminous pearl? My God, I should’ve followed you there this afternoon. I shouldn’t have slept in. I missed such a great show!”
Tanya was worked up over it. The more she thought about it, the more she regretted not following her brother to the auction today.
“Fane is a sugar baby? Haha, it’s funny people actually think so. Fane has enough money. Moreover, we pay him 20 million bucks a month, which is more than enough for him. Does he really need to be a sugar baby?”
James Drake laughed and said, “Since this woman was wearing a face mask and shades, I think she definitely has a complicated background. As for Fane, it’s impossible that he was her bodyguard. They were probably together as friends. It’s already a downgrade for Fane to be a bodyguard for us, so it’d be impossible for him to find a part-time job!”
“Dad, aren’t you putting him on too high of a pedestal? Is he really that strong?”
Timothy had always thought that his father thought too highly of Fane.
“You’re too young. Remember what I said, you can’t offend this man. Of course you can’t let him feel that we’re trying to get on his good side as well or allow him to feel annoyed of us! But when we get the chance, we should help him and make him feel that owing a favor to us is the best idea!”
“27 or 28?”
James’ pupils dilated. He said, “It’s probably not the God of War, is it? It could be that she’s a Goddess of War. I heard that she doesn’t like getting bothered recently. She rejected all the rich businessmen and families who wanted to have a meal with her! If she really wanted to go out, it’s logical that she would wear a face mask and shades!”
“My dear, now that you’ve said it, I think it’s possible. After all, for a woman to be able to whip out 500 million bucks and defeat nearly 60 men easily, more so with a few black belt holders amongst them—could she really be the Goddess of War?”
Timothy inhaled sharply and was stunned. “It’s not really possible that rich women from other cities came to the auction. After all, news about it only came out yesterday so people from other cities would probably not have been able to hear about it so soon. Seeing how strong and young that woman was, she’s probably the Goddess of War!”
“That’s right. Since Fane was with her, this further proves that their relationship is unusual!”
