Chapter 207 Competition at the Auction
+15 BONUS
Sherry had seen many things, so even though Xander didn’t give her the time of day, she remained unfazed.
“I understand, Mr. Fulton. You must have met a lot of people and forgotten about me. I’m Sherry Clark. We actually met at Futurelink Corporation’s grand opening reception.”
Xander listened, but he still showed no sign of remembering her. “Oh, I’m sorry. I don’t recall.
He was straightforward, and his response almost bordered on rejection. Hearing that, Sherry smiled awkwardly.
Meanwhile, Grace couldn’t help but find the situation amusing. She was surprised that Xander could remain unmoved when such a stunning woman was standing right in front of him.
Just then, Benjamin entered the hall, wearing a handmade black suit.
Benjamin had chosen to attend this charity auction to restore Hawkins Group’s reputation. He intended to make a charitable donation and regain public favor for his company.
“Mr. Hawkins, it’s an honor to have you here.” The organizer approached him with great respect. After all, Benjamin was a prominent figure in Pamore.
Even if the Hawkins family had gone through some hiccups, their current position in Pamore
remained among the top tier.
As a small–scale organizer, they dared not offend Benjamin, so they gave him a seat in the
front row.
Coincidentally, Grace and Xander were seated right next to him.
From the moment Benjamin saw Grace, his eyes never left her. When he noticed Xander beside her, his expression subtly changed.
He took his seat without saying a word.
“Welcome to tonight’s charity auction, everyone. All proceeds from this auction will be
donated to the local Red Cross to support the elderly and orphans.”
As the opening remarks drew to an end, the charity auction commenced.
“Now, we have our first item up for auction tonight, a bracelet donated by Brisco Group, with a starting bid of 100 thousand dollars.”
“110 thousand dollars.”
“130 thousand dollars.”
