Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 445

As soon as the host muted his mic, there was a commotion in the crowd.

The host was pleased and said, “Before the bidding begins, let’s welcome Young Master Moore to say a few words.”

The stage lights suddenly dimmed, and when it lit up again, there was an extra person on stage.

Harvey Moore wore a black suit and looked dazzling under the white spotlight. His handsome features hid his usual hostility, which made him look elegant. As soon as he appeared on stage, his good looks stirred up some squeals amongst the lady guests.

Janet also had to admit that even she was captivated by his charm.

Harvey Moore’s mellow voice resonated through the speaker and echoed through the vast auction hall. It was intimate yet unfamiliar.

“First, I would like to thank everyone for joining this charity auction. I can clearly see your passion and enthusiasm for charity. To be honest, by offering up this house, I was merely presenting the Buddha with borrowed flowers, so I feel quite abashed from getting everyone’s compliments.

“Everyone knows that the old mansion is my Third Grandfather’s ancestral home. Many of you might not understand why I decided to auction off my grandfather’s ancestral home and might think of me as an unfilial descendant. Nevertheless, I would like to add that true heritage comes not from material items, but from remembering our ancestor’s mottos, which is knowing how to be courteous and knowing when to contribute back to society!

“Perhaps you might not know that long ago, I was a kid with autism. At that time, I lived in an orphanage near the capital. My days went by as if I were a machine. It was truly hopeless. It wasn’t until Third Grandfather came for an inspection of the orphanage and adopted me that my life had a sliver of hope.”

He paused as if he was thinking about the past. His voice turned deep.

Shortly after, he continued, “Because of this, I hope that I will have the chance to help more people 一 to help those autistic kids who were like me back then. I want to let them know that there are people out there who care for them. At the same time, I would also like for them to understand that even though we were born with a disability, as long as you work hard, you can also usher in spring!”

After his speech, the auction hall was filled with resounding applause.

Everyone in the audience was moved by his words.

Janet sat in the corner and reached out to touch her face which was wet with tears.

She laughed sarcastically and wiped away her tears.

“Thank you for speaking, Young Master Moore. As they say, listening to a great speech is better than reading 10 years worth of books!”

The host got back on the stage and continued onto the next agenda.

“Now, we will begin the bidding of this old mansion. Located at the foot of Anshan, the view is remarkable and can be used as a vacation home. The starting price is 5 million, with a minimum increase of 50,000 per bid. The bidding starts now!”

As soon as the mic was muted, someone started bidding.

“5.2 million!”

“5.3 million!”

“5.5 million!”

“5.6 million!”

“5.65 million!”

It can be seen that everyone knew that the house had no commercial value, so the bids are very low.

Suddenly, a cold feminine voice emerged from the corner of the room.

“6 million!”

Nobody noticed that someone was sitting in the corner of the last row and everyone could not help but turn back to have a look. However, with the dim lights, they could only make out a small vague figure. The body was slim and judging by the sound of her voice, she must be very young.

Immediately, someone bid, “6.2 million!”

“7 million!” The girl in the corner said decisively.

“7.2 million!”

Janet continued shouting, “8 million!”

At this time, a young girl sitting in the front row pressed on the call button.

“10 million!”

Janet stood up angrily and her eyes tightened.

The hall was dark but from where she was standing, she could see the side view of a pretty girl with big wavy hair. Her curled up lips exuded confidence. Even when she was seated in a crowd, she was still outstanding and her elitist aura could not be hidden.

Luna Graham?
