The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1550
Regardless, Gerald couldnât help but nod with a smile. She wasnât a bad woman at all, and though her words were casual, they gave Gerald a warm feeling inside.
âHow rare to meet such a kind woman nowadays⦠I wonder if fate had planned for us to get acquaintedâ¦â
With that in mind, Gerald felt that he may as well use this chance to grant her a wish or two. After all, money was no real issue to him and he didnât mind really spending a large sum as long as it got her what she wanted or gave her access to a skill she wanted to learn. In a way, this was his way of repaying her kindness to him this entire time.
His train of thought was cut short when Young Master Turnbullâwho was still on the stageâheld onto the microphone before saying, âLadies, and gentlemen! Please, be quiet!â
Hearing that, everyone instantly went quiet. Honestly, it was so silent, that it almost felt like this was some rehearsed scene in a play.
Regardless, now that everyone was paying attention, Baelfire narrowed his eyes before saying, âNow then, Iâm sure everyone already knows that I host large-scale parties like this once or twice a year, and every time I do, an auction is sure to be held! In the previous years, the items I mostly auctioned were either antiques or rare items. This time, however, the auction item is a little more special!â
âOh? Even Young Master Turnbull thinks itâs special? How special could it even be?â
âWho knows? You think heâs going to auction some kind of elixir or something?â
As the crowd instantly began discussing what they had just heard, a middle-aged manâwho was all smilesâwalked over to Baelfireâs side before whispering, âAs was expected, your statement made these people impatient again, Young Master Turnbull!â
âHahaha! Itâs more interesting this way, isnât it? The more excited they are, the more these dogs will gnaw at each other to get what they want! Iâm here for that excitement!â replied Baelfire with a tiny sneer.
Though their conversation was barely audible, Gerald was able to catch every word they said. Even so, none of all this really concerned him, so he really couldnât be bothered to step in.
âNow, now, Iâm sure everyone is extremely anxious to know what the item is! Fear not, Iâll be revealing it soon!â shouted Baelfire, prompting everyone below stage to shout and scream in anticipation.
Even Fiaâwho had seen much of the worldâwas feeling impatient due to the way Baelfire had teased about the auction item.
What exactly was it? Since Young Master Turnbull was taking his time revealing it, the item must be extremely extraordinary!
Just as everyone was thinking the same thing, Baelfire smiled before declaring, âListen closely now, the item Iâm auctioning today is a woman! With that said, Iâm sure you gentlemen offstage are going to have a good time! After all, not only is this woman as pretty as a fairy, but sheâs also remained pure and innocent up till this point!â
Upon hearing that, shouts of excitement from the menâwhich were particularly loud from a select few rich young heirsâinstantly filled the air.
Pleased with their reaction, Baelfire then waved his hand slightly before ordering, âAlright, bring her over and show her to them!â
Following that, four people carrying a crateâthat had been draped with a white veilâslowly made their way up the stageâ¦
