An Almighty System From On High

Chapter 22

Adrien went into the hall and got to his seat in the first row according to the guidance of the invitation cara. People in the first and the second rows all looked at him curiously. Adrien seemed to be the boss, and his two followers should be his secretaries. Why could they sit in the first row?

“Mr. Higgins! It’s really you!” Hester saw Adrien coming to the first row when she was chatting with David.

Adrien followed the voice and saw Hester.

“Ms. West, nice to see you. Yo, isn’t it Ms. Olson? It turns out that Corestar Group also received the invitation to the auction.”

Adrien’s words were meaningful. On the one hand, he explained that his invitation card was not from Corestar Group. On the other hand, he hadn’t expected that Lilianne would come with Celia.

His words made other people know what Lilianne had done at once.

“Oh. Mr. Higgins, nice to see you here.” Lilianne managed a smile.

“Is this your secretary? What’s her name?”

“Hello, Mr. Higgins, I’m Celia.”

“Great. You come with your secretary instead of me. Ha ha, it’s cool. I also take my subordinates here. This is my butler. Sylvia Earp, and this is my assistant, Darcy Earp.

“Nice to meet you. I’m Mr. Higgins butler. Sylvia Earp.”

Hester found that Sylvia looked very familiar to her.
