Seeing Yuna’s menacing look, Charlie mumbled with a bitter face, “After all, we’re now at The Pavillion.
I’m afraid things will get out of control if we cause a big scene.”
“Coward!” Yuna shot a glare at Charlie. “Let me ask you again. Are you going to call those men or not?
If you don’t dare to, give me the phone and I’ll make the call!”
Faced with the crabby wife, Charlie took out his phone exasperatedly. “Okay, okay. There’s just nothing
I can do about you. I’ll make the call now.”
“Hmph!” Yuna rolled her eyes at Charlie.
Moments later, she ordered, “Bring Brandon here after the call. There’s a banquet to attend after the
auction.”
“Okay…” Charlie croaked sulkily while scrolling through the contact list on his phone.

into the room when she saw various toys in it.
“You may be excused. I’ll stay here.” Jacob said to the hotel staff, who was also one of the Shadow
Rangers.
“Yes, Boss!” The staff answered in a servile manner and closed the door gently when he left.
“I want to play that!” Heidi was all smiles pointing at a swing nearby.
Jacob hummed with a smile, “Sure.”
In no time, the room was filled with Heidi’s crisp laughter.
About ten minutes later, a group of men, who were dressed in different kinds of outfits, walked into the
grand, well-illuminated hotel lobby.
A receptionist walked up to them and sized up the huge luggage most of them were carrying before
greeting them. “Hi gentlemen, welcome to The Pavillion. How may I help you?”
“We’re invited here by Paramount Chamber of Commerce.” The leader answered with a smile.
After hesitating for a moment, the receptionist nodded and said, “I see. This way, please.”
Ludwig, who was sitting straight on a couch in the lobby, had a change in expression when he saw the
group of guests.
Sitting beside Ludwig, Krish was leafing through a magazine idly. Upon noticing the change in Ludwig’s
expression out of the corner of his eye, he lifted his head and asked, “What’s wrong, Master Ludwig?”
“Nothing.” Ludwig shook his head and hummed as he saw the gang quickly enter the lift.
Meanwhile, the auction event was about to end as the last piece of jewelry was bought by a big shot at

At Table No.2, Yuna caressed Brandon’s head, and asked gently, “Are you hungry? We’re going for a

At Table No.3, Simon held his wife’s hand and said, “The event is finally over. Let’s go home. Our girl
must be missing us already.”
On the other hand, the group of visitors had arrived at the entrance of the hall. A manager from the
Chamber of cCmmerce blocked them and said, “I’m sorry, there’s an auction event organized by
Paramount Chamber of Commerce going on in the hall. Only invited guests are allowed to enter.”
The leader, who was dressed in a green army suit and wore a pair of gray shades, smiled at the
manager and said, “Oh, is it? But we’re invited here by your party.”
“Our party? Who is that? Why haven’t I heard of this?” The manager frowned.
The leader curled his lips into a surly smile and blurted, “He said his name is Charlie Wayne.”
“Mr. Wayne?”
