Chapter 57- auction

Mechelle's POV

"Don't you see I have a lady companion with me?" Alexander Duncan said with a half-smile to the fat man.

"Well... hehe, there are other treasures as well, surely something you'll fancy." The fat man responded with a laugh.

I lowered my head in silence, following Alexander Duncan as we took seats near the front center. From the corner of my eye, I carefully scanned every corner of the auction hall. The auction house wasn't very large, holding at most twenty or thirty people, but everyone who entered here had a notable status. Each person wore a mask, and no one knew who the others were. At this moment, under the spotlight in the center of the auction hall, a beautiful woman in a red backless dress was using her alluring, sweet voice to introduce the treasures in her hands to everyone present.
