Chapter 201
Chapter 201 Among the items Andrew needed to regain his strength and break the seals were the Seventh- Heaven Quince from Mark and the Morlic Root from Cedric .
The Radiant Group is holding an auction soon , and this Celestial Nymphaca is one of the featured items , Marvin explained .
He continued , With my connections as the wealthiest man in Jayrodale , I could have purchased the Celestial Nymphaea directly , but apparently , someone else has already shown interest in it .
The Radiant Group is in a difficult position and doesnt dare to sell it privately , which is why I came to you .
Andrew nodded thoughtfully .
Got it .
Give me the time and location of the auction , and Ill handle it personally .
Marvin replied , Its the day after tomorrow at 8 pm sharp in Radiant Groups underground hall .
In Jayrodale , Radiant Group was a heavyweight in the jewelry , antiques , and luxury goods industry .
For them to offer something as rare as the Celestial Nymphaea did not surprise Andrew .
After all , he had also purchased the King of Diamonds from them .
The next day , Lauren invitedAndrew to accompany her to the Radiant Groups auction .
Events like auctions were a playground for the wealthy , entirely out of reach for the average person .
Moreover , they often featured unexpected treasures that could not be found elsewhere .
Before the auction , Andrew made time to visit the South City Orphanage project .
Christina was truly a workaholic , and under her constant supervision , the project was already 80 % complete .
When Andrews car pulled up at the project office Leroy rushed over excitedly .
Andrew , did you … did you get a new car ? he asked , running his hands over Andrews new vehicle as if it were a priceless treasure .
Andrew remained indifferent , explaining that his previous Porsche Panamera had been totaled while rescuing Lauren .
On his way to South City , he had stopped by the Mercedes dealership and casually picked up a new G Wagon .
Irene and Christina walked over to join them .
Christina frowned at Leroys obvious drooling but held her tongue , though she could not resist making a comment to Andrew .
She said coldly , It seems the West End development has made you quite wealthy , so now youre living a life of luxury .
Andrew , youre too old for this .
Having money doesnt mean your need to waste it on such flashy things that will only lead to your downfall .
Its just a car , Andrew replied dismissively .
Youre making too big a deal out of it .
Jhapter 201 Leroy sidled up to Andrew with a hopeful expression .
Mr.
Lloyd , what happened to your old Panamera ? If youre not using it , maybe you could let me have it ? Sorry , but its completely totaled , Andrew replied .
The wreck is still there if you want to collect the scrap metal .
Leroy looked thunderstruck and clutched his chest dramatically .
Andrew , how could you treat my dream car like that ? Ive been telling you to give it to me all this time , and now I find out youve been so careless with it ! Its my car , and Ill do what I want with it , Andrew retorted with amusement .
Dont you think youre overstepping ? Leroy paused , then gritted his teeth before making another attempt .
Since youre so wealthy and throwing money around , how about buying me a luxury car too ? Or maybe you could give me this G Wagon ? Are you begging me ? Andrew asked with a laugh .
Leroy hesitated for a moment but shamelessly said , If you agree , Ill beg ! From now on , Ill treat you like my big brother and follow you to hell and back , no complaints .
Christina could not ta it anymore and exploded in anger .
Leroy , get out of here ! Do you have any idea how much shame youre bringing to the Stevens family ?
