After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person Chapter 253: Chapter 253 Antique Business

The scene suddenly erupted into chaos, and two bodyguards hurried forward to drag Lotus away, after which the wedding proceeded as normal.

Chen Yu didn't concern himself with the commotion, having helped Victor with his trouble, he found a corner and continued drinking.

It wasn't until the wedding was over that Victor found Chen Yu with a beaming smile.

"Mr. Chen, I really can't thank you enough for this ti, I wouldn't have known how to carry on with the wedding without you."

Chen Yu didn't say much, simply rattling the wine bottle in his hand.

"Mr. Victor, may I ask how this wine was brewed? Why is it so llow and sweet?"

Victor glanced at the wine in Chen Yu's hand and imdiately ordered his n to bring two more bottles.

"Mr. Chen, without concealnt, this wine is brewed using a unique secret recipe of William's family, and it has been stored in the wine cellar for a thousand years!"

Chen Yu was sowhat surprised; he hadn't expected such a fine wine within William's family.

At that mont, a middle-aged man was led into the hall by two bodyguards from William's family.

Carrying a package wrapped tightly in black cloth.

When Victor saw the middle-aged man, he imdiately beca enthusiastic, quickly pulling him over to sit at the table.

The middle-aged man wasn't shy either, leisurely unwrapping the black cloth to reveal a knight's longsword that glittered with a silver light.

Victor beca excited instantly, eagerly cradling the longsword to inspect it closely.

"Is this the knight's longsword once used by William's family? Finally, this sword has returned to William's family!"

In his excitent, the middle-aged man gently tapped the table, then extended a finger.

"Mr. Victor, according to our previous agreent, this sword is priced at one hundred million, please make the paynt imdiately."

Victor didn't say much; after all, the sword belonged to William's family, and now that it was back, he was even more delighted.

Without paying much attention to the price, Victor directly instructed his subordinates to make the transfer.

"Hold on!"

Chen Yu suddenly called out, then stepped forward and took the longsword from Victor's hands.

"I feel like there's sothing wrong with this sword!"

The middle-aged man imdiately tensed up, then hurriedly tried to cover the panic on his face, staring at Chen Yu with an inexplicable gaze.

"If I'm not mistaken, sir, you must be from the East, right? Our Western treasures have our unique attributes and are different from Eastern antiques. Since this is an heirloom of William's family, you shouldn't speak carelessly!"

Chen Yu burst into laughter as if he had heard a terrific joke.

"Sir, you're quite funny. Regardless of whether it's from the East or the West, anything handed down from ancient tis is an antique, there's no difference!"

With that, Chen Yu tapped the longsword a few tis.

"If I rember correctly, such knight's longswords are typically forged from black steel, which takes on a silver sheen with the passage of ti! Yet the glint on this sword is a bit too bright."

Victor instantly beca vigilant; after all, Chen Yu had more than once seen through the authenticity of a gemstone at previous auctions.

His expression changed subtly as he quietly signaled the bodyguards to stand behind the middle-aged man, ready to take control of him if anything seed amiss.

"Mr. Chen, since you're here, could you please help verify the authenticity of this sword?" Experience new stories on m v|l e'-

Victor muttered a request and passed a magnifying glass to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu did not reach out to take it, instead carefully examining the longsword in his hand.

"If I'm not mistaken, this sword must be a treasured one, and it was broken three months ago. It was only treated with a special thod, and the gemstone set in the hilt is made of synthetic cubic zirconia."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man completely panicked and turned to run away, but two bodyguards who were already standing behind him imdiately grabbed his shoulders and pinned him down to the ground.

Victor flew into a rage and slamd the table hard.

"Well, you've really got so nerve, trying to deceive William's family with this scam!"

The man had already been scared out of his wits and knelt on the ground, repeatedly kowtowing.

"Mr. Victor, I assure you this has nothing to do with ; I'm just following soone else's orders. They gave this sword and asked to bring it here!"

Victor went straight up to him, grabbed the man's collar, and hoisted him up.

"Who are they?"

"The Illuminati!" When the middle-aged man uttered these three words, everyone in the room was montarily taken aback.

Chen Yu, however, appeared extrely composed; he had heard of this organization before.

It was said that this organization could control the elents in the Western world, with imnse power.

Yet he did not expect these people to be engaged in making forgeries, and even selling their creations to William's family.

Chen Yu coughed lightly and with a strange look in his eye, stared at the kneeling middle-aged man.

"I've heard that the Illuminati has many antiques from the East. I wonder if that's true. Could you take to see them?"

The middle-aged man's eyes widened with a look of terror as he gazed back at Chen Yu.

"Indeed, there are many treasures from the East over there, but all the treasures are locked away in a very secretive vault that no one can find. Even mbers of the Illuminati need to gather ten keys to get in!"

Chen Yu's interest intensified, "No matter, I relish a challenge."

The middle-aged man was already scared out of his wits, knowing that if the higher-ups of the Illuminati found out he had led an outsider into the vault, they would tear him to pieces.

"Please, sir, I'm not ready to et God just yet!"

Chen Yu's voice suddenly turned icy, grabbed the other's throat, and pressed him hard against the ground.

"If you don't take there, I can send you to et God right now!"

Stifled with dread, the middle-aged man did not dare say more and quickly sketched out a map.

After a brief word with Victor, Chen Yu left with the middle-aged man.

In fact, besides the current factories and shops, what Chen Yu truly wanted to do was to deal in antiques.

It wasn't so much the profit that derived from it, but rather Chen Yu wanted to recover all the cultural treasures that had been scattered abroad.

Under the guidance of the middle-aged man, Chen Yu soon arrived at a bar that seed exceedingly secret.

The exterior of the bar was very run-down; one would not even notice its existence without looking carefully.

But upon entering the bar, Chen Yu was astounded by everything inside.

This place could no longer be considered a bar, but a hall!
