The Legendary Man Chapter 431
The Auction
The night passed by in the blink of an eye.
At eight o’clock the next night, Logan knocked on the door to Jonathan’s room punctually.
“Mr. Goldstein, it’s time. We should get going!” Logan’s voice sounded outside the door.
“Let’s go.” Jonathan opened the door and walked out of the hotel with Logan.
At the hotel entrance, a black car had been waiting for quite some time.
“Commander!”
The moment Jonathan came downstairs, the soldier waiting by the car immediately straightened his back and wanted to salute Jonathan subconsciously.
Although he was only a driver at that moment and did not wear a military uniform, the reflexes of a soldier engraved in his bones still made his fingers tremble.
“Don’t call me ‘Commander’ here. There’s no commander around—only Mr. Goldstein is here,” Jonathan reminded in a low voice. Upon hearing his words, the soldier immediately snapped back to his senses and opened the car door for Jonathan. “Please, Mr. Goldstein!”
“Okay.” Jonathan nodded, then got into the car.
Half an hour later, the car came to a stop in front of an extravagantly designed hotel, and at the entrance of the hotel, there were already countless guards in black suits standing there.
One could tell at a glance that there were at least a hundred of them.
Each of them was armed and wore an earpiece in their ears. It looked just like a scene straight out of a major motion picture.
Some of them even had a bulge in their waists, seemingly carrying guns on them.
Nevertheless, this was understandable because every guest who attended the auction that day was a prominent and distinguished figure in Durbaine. There were even bigshots, who had flown a long distance from abroad, to attend this event.
Every one of them had a net worth of at least a hundred million, and that figure was the smallest number among the elites.
If anything were to happen to any of those attendees, the organizer of the auction would have to bear unimaginable consequences.
“Mr. Goldstein, this way!” Logan led the way. His face itself was the best pass. With Logan around, no one had the guts to check their invitation cards.
This was a very high-class private auction. No one could enter without an invitation, and no one was allowed to take pictures or record a video.
To ensure that no information about the auction would be leaked, one had to hand in one’s phone and camera before entering the venue.
“There are many people here,” Jonathan remarked casually.
As he walked inside, he encountered about a hundred people.
All of them were potbellied and had a group of bodyguards following after them.
Occasionally, Jonathan would catch sight of a few familiar celebrities.
