Chapter 0123

“Forty million!”

The crowd’s lunacy was evident; an ordinary woman was fetching such a colossal sum.

“One hundred million!”

As a bid was raised in a corner of the room, a soft and deep male voice sounded out.

The crowd buzzed with excitement, turning to see the bidder. He locked eyes with Lucius. It was Edur. His gorgeous face, capable of enchanting both men and women, bore a playful smirk as he returned Lucius’s stormy gaze.

Both men were remarkable in every way. Lucius embodied a severe, melancholic allure, while

Edur exuded a free–spirited charm.

“Let her go!” Lucius demanded authoritatively. He was confident in doing so, because he knew Edur could no longer oppose him.

Edur rose and declared, “Once an item enters the Elysium Club, it abides by our rules. We operate

on sales, not charity. Unsold items are destroyed.”

“You really want to fight me?”

Lucius widened his eyes, incensed at the sight of his woman being scrutinized by so many men.

“Why not continue the fight that’s already started?” Edur retorted, keeping his cool even though Lucius had cornered him.

“Two hundred million!” Edur increased his bid once more, reaching a new record for himself.

The conflict between the two men captivated the onlookers. A collective gasp filled the room when Edur upped his bid, shattering his previous record.

While this defied the club’s norms, being the ruler of this club, Edur made the rules.

Lucius smirked. He was no longer irate; he snatched the bid card from Edur, and confidently
