In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.
The long auction was finally coming to an end.
The host smiled and shouted at the crowd, "Alright, we're now at the most important part of our auction. This item is provided by the organizer of this auction and the general manager of Serena Corporation, Miss Monica. Now, let's invite Miss Monica up on stage to introduce the item to everyone!"
After knowing that the general manager of Serena Corporation was going to make an appearance, all the people present were very excited. After all, they ca to this auction today for this woman.
A mont later, a beautiful woman in a black evening dress slowly walked onto the stage.
Connor instinctively glanced at the woman. This woman was indeed very beautiful. She had blonde hair and blue eyes. She was tall and sexy, and her face was exquisite and charming. She was like an angel in a TV series. She exuded the unique charm of a Europe woman. Moreover, this woman's temperant made people feel very noble.
"I didn't expect Serena's general manager to be so young!"
Connor whispered to Freya.
"Monica is the 13th generation heir of the Serena family. The Serena family has always passed down the line of inheritance to won and not n. Moreover, Monica's style of doing things is very radical. If she hadn't beco Serena's general manager, Serena probably wouldn't have entered the costics market!"
Freya explained.
"I see!"
Connor lightly nodded.
After Monica went on stage, she made so simple greetings with the crowd and then began to introduce her collection.
"This treasure was accidentally obtained by my Great-Grandma when she went to Oprana. My Great-Grandma thought that this treasure could protect our family, so it has always been regarded as a family heirloom by our family, ready to be passed down from generation to generation..." Monica said.
Everyone was shocked when they heard Monica's words.
This was because no one had expected Monica to take out the Serena family's heirloom for auction.
At this mont, a middle-aged man stood up and asked, "Miss Monica, why are you auctioning off such a valuable item?"
Monica couldn't help but smile after hearing the man's words. "See, so ti ago, my grandmother had a dream. She dread that this treasure hoped to find its true owner, so my grandmother asked to take this treasure out for auction. I hope to find a suitably fated person for this treasure. This way, I won't let it down for protecting our family for so many years…"
"What is it?"
"Yeah, what kind of treasure is this?"
Everyone seed to be even more curious after hearing Monica's words.
"Everyone, wait a mont!"
At this mont, Monica suddenly shouted at everyone.
In an instant, the entire hall fell silent.
Monica waved at the attendant not far away.
Soon, the attendant brought an exquisite box onto the stage. Monica received the box respectfully and opened the lid.
When the lid was opened, everyone realized that the treasure Monica was talking about was just an ordinary athyst pendant.
The athyst pendant emitted waves of gentle light, giving people the feeling that it was not an ordinary athyst pendant.
Connor sized up the athyst pendant in the box, but he did not find anything special about it.
"I think this woman is lying here. Wasn't it just an ordinary athyst pendant? Is there a need to make it sound so magical?"
Connor said to Freya, sowhat speechless.
"I don't know if Monica is lying, but I know that soone will definitely bid crazily later. Basically, whoever can get this athyst pendant will be equivalent to getting the project with Serena…"
Freya whispered.
"Then how about I help you auction off this athyst pendant?"
Connor hesitated for a mont before asking with a smile.
"There's no need. Even if you help get this athyst pendant, I might not be able to get this project. Moreover, this athyst pendant shouldn't be very valuable. If you get it at an extrely high price, it would really be a little inappropriate…"
Freya shook her head without thinking.
Connor smiled when he heard Freya's words and didn't say anything.
In fact, Connor had already thought about helping Freya win the project with Serena. However, Connor was not sure if he could really help, so he did not tell Freya about this.
Of course, Connor also knew that if Freya knew about it in advance, she would definitely stop him. Therefore, Connor planned to tell her after this matter was settled.
"I've already introduced the origin of this treasure to everyone. Now, I'll get the attendant to bring this treasure down for a walk. Everyone can also observe it up close so that it'll be convenient for everyone to bid…"
Monica looked at everyone and continued.
After the attendant heard Monica's words, he walked off the stage with the box and began to shuttle between the crowd.
Connor and Freya were not interested in this pendant, so they did not go forward to take a look.
A few minutes later, the attendant passed by Connor with the box.
However, the mont the attendant passed by, Connor's expression instantly changed.
Because Connor felt that the pendant that Jorge gave him seed to have so reaction.
Connor hurriedly took out his athyst pendant from his clothes. At this mont, the pendant was actually emitting a faint light. However, this light was very subtle. If one did not observe it up close, it would be very difficult for ordinary people to see this light.
Connor himself was a martial artist, so he could easily observe the changes in the pendant.
Moreover, it was not only Connor's pendant that reacted at this ti. The athyst pendant in the box was also emitting light.
"Hello, can I take a look at this pendant?"
Connor hurriedly said to the attendant.
"Of course!"
The attendant smiled at Connor and then walked to Connor with the box.
When the attendant approached Connor, Connor could feel that the light emitted by the athyst pendant was even stronger. However, the surrounding people did not notice the change in the pendant.
"Could it be that this athyst pendant has sothing to do with the pendant that Jorge gave ?"
The expression on Connor's face was sowhat excited.
