Soon, Bruce led Lucas to a spacious auction hall situated in the basement floor of Club Splendor.
The auction hall was indeed very secretive. Along the way, they had to pass through several labyrinths of passages and doors guarded by professional security personnel before they finally reached the venue.
Lucas thought, No wonder the Kingstons chose to hold the auction of beautiful women here in Club Splendor that belongs to the Wallaces. They're probably aware that they should keep their sordid business away from the public eye. No wonder the security at the entrance was so tight.
If this matter was exposed, the Wallaces and the Kingstons would be in deep trouble!
Although the auction had yet to begin officially, many guests had already gathered in the auction hall. Apart from a small number of people from top families in Orange County whom Lucas had met before, there were many fresh faces.
