Chapter 855

Gregory Graham and Vickie Thomas ate dinner in peace.

After the meal, Gregory went back to the study to do some work, while Vickie asked Andrea to accompany her while they watched dramas in the living room.

In the past, Vickie did not like to watch these soap operas because she thought they were boring and a waste of time. Ever since she was injured and had to stay home every day, she had changed her opinion and found leisure in watching them.

The two women were sitting on the couch and held a bag of chips as they ate and watched TV.

In one of the episodes, a female character in a TV series used certain tactics to seduce the male lead, which made the man misunderstand that it was the female lead who had stolen the company's information.

Andrea suddenly said, "This is just like Yuliana’s style."

Vickie was stunned and turned to look at her.

She laughed ridiculously and said, "She already left. Your grudge against her hasn't gone away yet?"

Andrea realized that she had let her mouth slip and had accidentally said what was in her heart, so she stuck out her tongue.

"I'm just avenging your injustice. You're too indifferent in nature, that's why you always let people ride on your head and bully you."

Vickie smiled and did not reply.

Actually, the reason she did not care was not that she was open-minded.

It was simply because she was too lazy to be bothered.

For her, as long as the other party did not step on her bottom line, she simply did not have the heart to deal with worthless theatrics.

It was better to practice darts than to spend her energy on dealing with people who did not matter.

After watching two episodes of drama, Vickie felt a little sleepy.

She then went back to her room to sleep.

Andrea accompanied her back to her room and left only after Vickie fell asleep.

The next day.

Vickie just woke up and suddenly got a piece of news.

There was a very big auction on the east side of the city that night.

Usually, she was not one that liked crowds, and auctions certainly had nothing to do with her.

This time, however, she paid extra attention to it just because of a rumor on the internet that there would be a rare treasure at this auction, the Arcane Jade.

When she saw this news, Vickie was sitting in the living room with Gregory.

The two of them looked at each other, and they both saw something very profound in each other's eyes.

The Arcane Jade that had disappeared four years ago had now appeared again.

Was it a coincidence, or was someone doing it on purpose?

After Gregory's previous investigation and analysis, the two had learned that all the previous rumors about the Arcane Jade being able to bring people back to life were actually false.

Even though they knew it was fake, it did not mean that outsiders would know.

Thus, when this news came out, the entire circle was in an uproar.

There were quite a few people who wanted to get tickets to this auction, and even if they could not snag it first, just one glimpse of this legendary treasure would be worth it.

Since it was related to the Arcane Jade, Vickie and Gregory surely wanted to go as well.

They had already asked Harold to acquire two tickets so they could go together in the evening.

After Massimo Nolan’s birthday banquet the previous day, Vickie's foot, which had healed, was swollen again.

Thus that night, Gregory did not allow Vickie to wear high heels again.

It was good that it was just an auction like this, so it was not inappropriate to wear something casual.

Vickie then asked Andrea to prepare a pair of flats for her that would match her evening gown.

Tickets for this kind of auction were not too hard to get.

Harold quickly got them.

Since the auction was to start at 8:00 pm, the two of them did not rush there but had dinner and waited until it was almost time before they departed.

The auction was held in a five-star hotel in the eastern part of the city.

By the time the two arrived, most of the guests had also arrived.

The auction had not started at that time and everyone was outside socializing with each other over drinks. The hall was crowded and lively.

When Gregory and Vickie arrived, someone immediately noticed their arrival.

The person even came up to greet them.

"Long time no see, Young Master Graham. Why did you suddenly come for the auction today?"

Everyone knew that Gregory was not interested in this kind of occasion either.

Gregory smiled slightly, reached out his hand to shake the other party, and said indifferently, "If Mr. Litt can come, naturally I can come as well."

The man known as Mr. Litt had a glint in his eyes.

It was well known that this auction was no different from an ordinary auction.

The legendary heirloom treasure, the Arcane Jade that was rumored to be able to bring people back to life, was the only reason this auction was able to attract so many politicians, celebrities, and wealthy businessmen to attend.

It could be said that 99% of the people who came that night were there for the Arcane Jade.

He did not expect that even someone like Gregory Graham would come.

Mr. Litt’s eyes could not help but flicker with a glint because he knew that his chances of snatching that piece of jade that night were low.

However, he was only thinking this and would never let it show on his face.

He smiled warmly and said, "Young Master Graham is really too polite. It's just that I’d heard you’re not interested in this, so I didn't expect to see you here. Since you’ve graced us with your presence today, we’re naturally delighted."

Gregory smiled slightly and also said politely, "Mr. Litt, you’re too kind."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, they each excused themselves and parted ways.

Before he left, Mr. Litt took a good look at Vickie.

Since Gregory did not take the initiative to introduce her just now, he did not feel like asking.

The Third Young Master Graham, who had never been close to women, suddenly had a woman by his side?

Who was she?

The man was a little baffled but did not think much of it.

After all, it was normal to come to a place like this and bring a female companion along.

Perhaps she was not Gregory's woman at all, but just a female employee or a friend or something.

Mr. Litt considered this and did not think about it anymore.

On the other hand, Gregory brought Vickie with him as he introduced the crowd in the hall to her in a low voice, while he greeted everyone warmly.

When everyone saw him, their eyes were either admiring or envious, but more so, they were deeply wary.

That was because everyone knew that if this man was interested in anything that was on auction later, he would never let it fall into another person's hands.

It seemed that the auction that night would turn into chaos.

At around 7:50 pm, the auction was finally ready to begin, and they could finally enter the hall.

Everyone entered with a ticket and had their designated seats.

Gregory and Vickie's seats were in the first row, the closest place to the stage.

Everyone sitting in this row was a dignitary.

They had obviously arrived long ago, but they did not bump into each other in the hall earlier.

Both couples only saw each other when they got into their seats and were surprised.
