Chapter 360
Millie smiled wryly at the unique way they hosted the party.
Marvin asked, “Boss, what’s your budget for the Aspher? The starting price tonight is two million yewros, which is equal to one million dollars.”
“What? Aspher is such a valuable medicinal material, and it starts at just one million?” Millie was taken aback. In Chirea, it would easily start at five million.
“This businessman truly lacks good judgment. He not only decided to bring along such a valuable medicinal material for an auction in a foreign country, but he also set the starting price at only one million.” Millie sighed in disappointment and couldn’t resist labeling him as foolish.
While Winston was making his way back to the hotel, he suddenly let out a powerful sneeze inside the car.
Eli glanced back with concern and asked, “Mr. Greer, are you feeling unwell?”
Winston frowned and rubbed his nose. He felt fine.
Millie continued, “If he possesses good judgment, then he must be intentionally reducing the price to please others. Humph! How superficial!”
Winston sneezed once more, prompting Eli to panic and question, “Is it the climate change?”
“I’m fine,” Winston responded in a deep voice, pinching his nose and feeling c fused
He wasn’t coming down with a cold, nor was he experiencing any issues with climate change. It was rather perplexing when he unexpectedly sneezed.

was backless. Moreover, she had a lifelike butterfly tattoo on her shoulder. She looked absolutely stunning.
Millie wore jewelry made by the famous designer Lydia Hansen. She had only lent the set to top celebrity Rachel, but never lent it to anyone else.
Lydia and Julia were designers of the same generation and had a good relationship. Thus, Marvin borrowed it in Millie’s name without difficulty.
The car stopped at the auction venue. Millie saw a long red carpet and many reporters outside.
She wore the mask Marvin had prepared and exited the car. Marvin quickly approached and took her hand.
Marvin looked impeccable in his black suit and silver mask as he stood alongside Millie. As Millie took his arm, the reporters eagerly raised their cameras to capture them.
“Look! She’s wearing jewelry made by Ms. Hansen.
“Oh my God! Ms. Hansen never lends out this set. I wonder who she is.
“I’ve never seen and heard of her before.” A group of reporters conversed rapidly in Encerian, taking photos non–stop.
