The next second, he suddenly raised an eyebrow, then his thin lips curled slightly as he deliberately asked her,
"You’re helping me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Summer Shawcross’s face heated up again.
For some reason, she just felt that the cold face of the man had gained a hint of allure, mixed with a touch of ambiguity.
Making her heartbeat inexplicably speed up...
"I don’t want to!" she bit her lip and quickly refused.
For some reason, ever since that night when she was set up by the butler, she couldn’t face herself directly.
Even though at first she could manage to seduce and please Noah Drexler without batting an eyelid, but now... whenever her mind slipped, all sorts of random thoughts would pop up...
She thought it must be because the butler put too much in the chicken soup that day, leading to her mind being somewhat abnormal these past two days, sometimes even swallowing when watching Noah Drexler work seriously.
Hmm... she was having such hallucinations, surely because the drug effects had not completely metabolized yet, and it had nothing to do with her personally!
"You take your time changing, I’ll wait outside." As she spoke, she turned around and swiftly ran out of the room.
Noah Drexler stood in place, looking at the door that was hastily shut, a hint of indulgence flickering across his cold face.
Silly woman...
...
At nine o’clock in the evening.
The auction was held on the second floor of the yacht right on time, with Summer Shawcross sandwiched between Sean Morgan and several other bodyguards, following Noah Drexler into the auction venue.
The large living room was filled with guests of all sorts.
But it could be confirmed that those who could attend this auction today were figures from various fields, including some big names.
And the most talked-about tonight were Noah Drexler and Yancy Shaw from the Shawcross Group.
Noah Drexler had just sat down when many prominent figures from Zephyria came over to exchange greetings. However, Noah Drexler didn’t seem too interested, and Sean Morgan was the one handling them on the side.
The auction had been going on for less than ten minutes, and two items had already been auctioned off successfully, creating a lively scene.
Summer, dressed in her secretary outfit, was witnessing such a meticulous yet lively scene for the first time and curiously looked around.
Only then did she discover that most people attending today seemed to be from the business circle, many starting to build connections as soon as they walked in, creating a rather harmonious atmosphere.
So, she couldn’t help but be curious about why Noah Drexler was attending this auction because it was obvious that his purpose was not to build connections.
Just as she was curious, the auctioneer’s voice sounded again.
"The next item up for auction is considered one of the more unique pieces of the evening, a moonlight silver gemstone bracelet. It is said that under the moonlight, this bracelet looks even more beautiful and striking, perfectly complementing the beautiful sea view tonight."
Upon hearing the auctioneer’s introduction, Summer couldn’t help but curiously look up toward the stage, only to see a seemingly not-so-special silver bracelet lying quietly inside the glass display next to the auctioneer.
But upon closer inspection, she found that the gemstones on the bracelet were very special, emitting a very unique glow under the lights. Although its glow wasn’t as dazzling as diamonds, the soft glow exuded a certain warmth...
