Chapter 650
Meet My Brothers
The naïve Ginger shook her head.
Mia smiled. âSteal the thing he wants and heâll remember you forever.â
âBâBut-â
No buts. Youâre going to give him the reishi mushrooms as a present anyway. Itâs the same. Heâll be
able to save ten million dollars too! Isnât that great?â
Ginger thought that Mia had a point and so she quickly raised her number to be noticed by the
auctioneer.
The auctioneer saw the special number and knocked down the hammer. âSold! Congratulations to the
guest on the second floor. The reishi mushrooms are yours.â
A tumult broke out.
Furious, Caleb sprang to his feet. âWhatâs going on? I thought the bidders have to bid a price and three
chances are given to others before the bid ends, no? You knocked down the hammer way too fast. This
is not fair!â
People are joining in the protest. âIt is indeed unfair.â
Timothy looked at the second floor, his eyes met Miaâs. She was propping her chin while smirking
triumphantly.
His expression was gloomy as he began to think about what was she up to.
Luna stood up too. âCan the guest on the second floor pay ten million dollars?â She didnât believe that
Monalize had that much money.
Ten million dollars was an astronomical figure!
The auctioneer mocked, âMiss, the guest on the second floor is our VVIP on Xanier Island. Of course,
she can pay that much.â
The mockery made her feel awkward as she sat down stiffly. Her hands clutched onto her
dress.
With a wounded pride, she couldnât suppress the jealousy in her anymore. Was Monalize really that
rich?
The reishi mushrooms could treat Laura and wake her up. When that happened, Luna
wouldnât be able to cover the things she did anymore!
The protest was in vain. Caleb looked at Timothy, âWhat should we do?â
They thought that things were going smoothly, yet Ginger got in their way. How unlucky!
Timothy reciprocated solemnly, âThink of something else.â
âTim, that woman must be targeting me. Iâll explain to her later. I will help you get the reishi mushrooms
back no matter what it takes,â promised Caleb.
He figured that that was the reason behind Monalizeâs intervention. Otherwise, why would she
suddenly cause them trouble?
Except for the necklace and the reishi mushrooms, she didnât purchase anything from the auction
today.
It was obvious that she was picking on them.
âLetâs go.â Timothy rose from his seat.
Since someone else had purchased the reishi mushrooms, there was no need to stay here
anymore.
Caleb quickly said, âLetâs head to the second floor and talk to them.â
Timothy shared the same notion.
Nevertheless, it was fortunate that the winning bidder was Monalize and Ginger. The men still had a
chance to get the reishi mushrooms.
Luna watched their backs. Gritting her teeth, she followed them too.
Just what was she plotting? Luna wanted to know.
By the time they reached the second floor, however, the private lounge was empty.
Caleb huffed, âFuck! Theyâre gone! They knew that we were coming.â
Timothy overlooked the first floor, his eyes were dark.
Soon enough, the sound of high heels clicking could be heard from the end of the corridor.
Mia, holding Gingerâs hand, came up to them. Mia arched her eyebrow at them. âWhat a coincidence.â
