Kathleen also reported the good news to Jordan, who was still at Shangri-La, through a video call as soon as she could.
Jordan, who was furious because of the strict rules and regulations in Shangri-La, was suddenly enlightened after learning of this news, and he said excitedly, "That's great, Kathleen! It seems as though your hard work and efforts in Aurous Hill have not been in vain. That Master Wade must b e the mastermind behind the whole auction!"
Kathleen nodded and looked at Jordan in the video as she smiled and comforted him, "Grandpa, you will have to put up with it and suffer a little over these two days. I will bring you to the hotel where I am currently staying after the auction is over n o matter what the result is. I have already prepared a room for you here." "Okay!" Jordan said gratefully, "You're still the most thoughtful and safe when it comes to getting things done!"
Kathleen said again, “Grandpa, I will be staying in the VIP private room on the day o f the auction, and I won't be able to meet you at that time. If there is any situation, w e will talk about it after the auction is over."
"Okay!" Jordan smiled and said, "I hope that I can win!"
Kathleen said without hesitation, "Don't worry, Grandpa. You definitely will!"
Jordan, who was at Shangri-La, hung up the phone with a smile of relief on his face. After that, he said to Jarvis, who was next t o him, "Master Yant, this girl, Kathleen, is really a great talent indeed! So many people are trying to find the master behind the Rejuvenating Pill, but she is the only person who has succeeded. I am truly impressed.”
Jarvis nodded and said, "Miss Kathleen is really gifted, and she has extraordinary courage. She will be a great talent in the future!”
Jordan nodded slightly and then said somewhat emotionally, "It would have been a great blessing for the Fox family if Kathleen was a boy. Unfortunately... it’s really a pity!"
Jarvis wanted to say something, but he gave up after hesitating for a moment or two. Although Jarvis also felt that Kathleen was indeed the most promising descendant of the Fox family at the moment, he felt that it was not suitable for him to say these kinds of words in front of
Jordan.
This was because Jarvis had always been such a person, and his sense of boundary had always been very clear in his consciousness. Only such a person could remain absolutely calm and prevent themselves from making any mistakes to the greatest possible extent.
So, he sighed and said softly, "I want to live longer. On one hand, I am afraid of death, and on the other hand, I also hope to accompany Kathleen for a few more years. I t would be best if I can help her get on track. If I cannot do so, at the very least, I want her to be more full-fledged because she will definitely become the target of the Fox family when I pass away. Many people will not be able to eat or sleep unless they drive her out of the Fox family."
Jarvis said indifferently, “Lord Fox, you don’t need to be so sentimental. If you can get what you wish for on your trip to Aurous Hill this time, you can increase your life expectancy for another ten years, a t least." "Yes.” Jordan nodded and said, "Many things can be settled if I could be given another ten years."

Two days later in Aurous Hill, everything was the same as usual.
