Chapter 222

Emmanuel decided not to probe further, and Terence, too, didn’t consider

Emmanuel a fool. Instead, he perceived his trust as a unique form of

intelligence. Emmanuel reminded him of his younger self, who wouldn’t be

guarded against those he trusted, and would only get help from those that

he trusted. Emmanuel didn’t ask any more questions not because he had no

suspicions of his own, but because Emmanuel had placed his trust in him.

wouldn’t cause him any harm. If Terence said that ‘l‘ represented 100, then it

must be true. The auction was already underway, and the exquisite jewelry

was being sold off by the professional female auctioneer. The final sale

prices of each item remained undisclosed, with only the winning bidders

announced. Soon, a golden phoenix pendant was placed on the auction

stage. Even through the screen, Emmanuel couldn’t help but be mesmerized

by its dazzling brilliance.

“What a stunning gemstone carving. Mackenzie will surely love it!” Emmanuel

couldn’t help but sigh with admiration.
