“He doesn’t really care about formalities.” Arabella reassured her in a soft voice.


“A gift is a must for the first meeting. When you get a chance, go to the apartment I used to live in.


Open the safe and bring back the ring inside. It was your grandfather’s favorite treasure when he was


alive. He always said he wanted to pass it down to his future grandson–in–law.”


Arabella knew the value of the ring. “No, you should keep it as a keepsake.”


“Things only have value when they’re passed down. Consider it a little token of affection from me.”


Grace patted her hand with a smile on her face, “You must get it for me. It’s for him, not you.”


“Okay.” Arabella laughed and stayed a while longer with Grace until she seemed tired. After she fell


asleep, Arabella finally got up to leave.


Two days later.


Attlee and Olga successfully sold all their shares, properties, and shops. They borrowed a large


amount of money from several rural banks under the group’s name, and after several rounds of


financing, they finally qualified to participate in the auction.


The groups attending the auction today were all top international ones, including QY, Allbara


Investment, McMillan Corporation, the Collins Group, and so on. Even Alberto came to join the fun.


Among these groups, the Murphy group was the least prestigious and seemed insignificant in


comparison,


Attlee arrived at the entrance, looking at the majestic gate before him, and couldn’t help saying, “Olga,


we must succeed in getting this plot today.”


As long as they had this plot, the Murphy group could definitely shine! All problems would be solved!


Olga was excited. “Our net worth will soon multiply by hundreds, even thousands of times. By then, the


Panter family will be irrelevant! Yoli, that’s why I told you to dress up carefully today!”


Everyone here today was rich and noble. If Yoli could catch the eye of one of them, her future would be


limitless.


The Panter family and Zachary were nothing compared to these top–tier groups. They weren’t even


worth mentioning!


Yolanda was a little excited. Ever since her accidental encounter last time, she felt that Zachary was


too ordinary and not good enough for her. If she could find a richer and more powerful man here today,


even if he was older, she would accept him!


As they stood at the entrance, representatives of other groups passed by. Seeing the three of them


dressed so extravagantly, they all looked puzzled and surprised.


Today’s event was a land auction, but the three of them were dressed very formally, as if they were


attending a banquet.


!


Especially Yolanda, in her backless dress, stood out like a sore thumb among the men and women in


suits and work clothes.


Yolanda thought she was very beautiful and eye–catching. She smiled and greeted the people who


passed by her, but no one paid her any attention. They looked at her as if she were a fool.


Yolanda was a bit confused and didn’t know where the problem was.


Just then, a luxurious RV pulled up at the entrance. The formally–dressed driver respectfully opened


the door.


The first to get out was Kenneth, followed by Louisa, whom he helped out of the car.


Attlee’s first reaction upon seeing them was to straighten his clothes. He took a couple of steps forward


with a beaming smile on his face. “Mr. Collins, Mrs. Collins, what a coincidence! Are you also here for


today’s auction?”


The money he brought today made him stand tall, as if he had the confidence to interact with them.


But Louisa gave him a cold look. This fool was almost bankrupt and still laughing so happily.


She said coldly, “You should laugh while you can; you might not have a chance later.”


Attlee was stunned. He thought Louisa was saying that the Murphy group couldn’t afford the land, so


he laughed even more happily.
