“Thank you for your support, Mr. Lane.”

Casper waved to Tony. The porcelain jar was worth around two million, and it was more than enough for Tony to bid for it at a price of three million.

“Four million.”

Stephen raised his hand just before the auctioneer hammered the gavel. A miserable feeling washed over Casper as he forced himself to look at Stephen. The latter winked at him in response.

“Of course, I have to support our dear Casper.”

A bitter smile formed on Casper’s face, and he didn’t dare to utter a word. Tony didn’t fight with Stephen as well, and the porcelain jar was auctioned off to Stephen for four million.

“What a lively atmosphere. Do help yourselves, everyone.”

Just then, an old man with greying hair strode into the banquet. Casper turned to look at him and noticed that the old man’s face looked as withered as a corpse in the cemetery. There seemed to be no sign of life on him.

There was also a young man who looked to be about twenty who followed behind the old man. Although he was young and dashing, he already had a head full of snow-white hair. His face was also ice-cold and indifferent.

Tony stood up and greeted the elderly man. Based on his attitude, Tony seemed to be a little patronizing toward the old man.

“Darian, you’re finally here.”

That old man was Darian Hunter, the head of the Hunter family. Casper scrutinized him from head to toe and tried to find if there was anything odd about him.

“Please take a seat, Old Mr. Hunter.” Victoria had been saving the best seat for him.
