The next morning, Lucas picked up Corinne at the mansion. The two of them went to Agatha Auction

House together.

Christine begged to go with Corinne. Not wanting to break her heart, Corinne decided to bring her

along with ‘Bryan’ and Joey.

The two adults and three kids walked into the venue, and a manager quickly came out to welcome

them.

“Welcome, Mister Lucas. Your private booth is ready. Allow me to bring you there now,” said the

manager respectfully.

Lucas, who was carrying Christine in his arms, nodded and followed the manager. Corinne, who was

holding the two boys in each hand, did the same.

Their private booth was located on the second floor, which allowed them to have a clear view of the

fully-packed floor below.

Lucas glanced at the crowd below before going into their private booth. “This auction sure has attracted

a lot of people. I’m guessing there’ll be some highly-sought items up for auction later?”

The manager smiled and nodded. “You’re right, Mister Lucas. Most of them are here for that piece of

land on Serenity Bay.”

Lucas entered the private booth and sat on one of the chairs with Christine on his lap before saying to

the manager, “No coffee. Bring some beverages that the kids can drink.”

The manager bowed. “Yes, Mister Lucas. I’ll ask my staff to prepare some snacks and beverages for

the kids right away.”

After that, he exited the private booth to instruct his staff to deliver some snacks and beverages to

Lucas’ private booth.

Lucas looked down at the little girl in his lap and asked her gently, “What do you want to eat later,

Christine? You can tell me. I’ll bring you and your brothers to the restaurant after your Mommy and I

have finished our work.”

His tone was so gentle that it was as if he was afraid she would break if he was any louder.

Christine blinked innocently at him and said, “Ask Mommy! I’ll eat whatever Mommy wants to eat!”

Lucas tapped her nose. “You sure are a mommy’s girl, huh? She’s very lucky to have you.”

“Of course. Mommy’s the best!” said Christine seriously.

Her words prompted Lucas to burst out with gleeful laughter.

Corinne picked up Joey and put him on the chair beside her before picking up ‘Bryan’—who was still

acting a little weird—and placing him on her lap.

She observed the scene before her with narrowed eyes. “All these people must be eyeing the piece of

land on Serenity Bay as well, which means we’re in for one hell of a fierce competition today.”

Lucas turned to her and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll make sure you get what you came for today.”

Corinne was frankly confident she would get the land, so she did not show any particular reaction.

However, the same could not be said for ‘Bryan’. His eyes had turned as big as saucers as though he

had seen something shocking.

Lucas noticed this, so he turned to look at what the little boy saw. Through the opened door of the

private room directly opposite them was a man being wheeled into the room in his wheelchair.

For some reason, he thought the man in the wheelchair looked familiar, but the door closed before he

could get a closer look at him. After thinking about it, he decided not to tell Corinne.

Instead, he asked ‘Bryan’, “Hey, little guy. Did you see something that scared you?”

‘Bryan’ snapped out of his shock and said guiltily, “I… I need to pee-pee…”

‘Oh. He just wants to pee…’ thought Lucas.

“Shall we go to the restroom, then?” he asked patiently.

‘Bryan’ quickly shook his head. “I can go by myself! I know where the restroom is.”

After that, he jumped down from Corinne’s lap and ran off to find the restroom. However, he had not

even taken a couple of steps before Corinne grabbed him.

“Have you forgotten what Mommy told you yesterday? That you shouldn’t run off by yourself?” she said

sternly.
