The Legendary Man

Chapter 86 The Starting Price Is A Hundred Million

Inside the grand hall, the crowd began to take their seats.

Only those of stature were allowed to be in private rooms while everyone else was seated in the grand hall.

Through the screen, Jonathan coincidentally caught a glimpse of the Langford Group chairman’s son, Alvin. What caught him by surprise was that Josephine’s best friend, Ysobel, was sitting right next to him.

Ysobel? Why is she sitting together with Alvin? Isn’t she already married?

Back when he moved into the Smith residence, Ysobel had already been married for a few years. In fact, Jonathan had seen her husband before. He was a fat and ugly middle-aged man.

Furthermore, he was more than ten years older than Ysobel.

Also, he came from a rich family.

Watching the screen, Jonathan saw that both Alvin and Ysobel were openly affectionate with each other, as if they were an actual couple.

“Mr. Goldstein, did you see someone familiar?” Harrison couldn’t help but ask when he saw Jonathan staring at the screen.

“Not exactly.”

Jonathan shook his head as he looked elsewhere.

Soon, the auction finally began.

A female host in a short skimpy dress walked up to the stage with a microphone in her hand. With the spotlight trailing her, it highlighted how stunning her figure was.

“A warm welcome everyone to the auction organized by the Hansley family! Today, we have many guests who came from both near and far. Therefore, I’m sure all of you will not be disappointed with today’s auction!

“For everything that we auction off tonight, we will donate one percent of the proceeds to the poor students living in rural areas. Without further ado, let us begin with our first item!”

After a short introduction and barely any time wasted, the host kicked off the auction right away.

“The first item on a block today is a painting by Michaelangelo, titled Spring and Autumn. The starting bid will be five million! Every increment must be at least a hundred thousand.”
