During the day, she went out to gather information and confirm the matter.

Yves remarked, “Sweetheart, don’t gross me out.”

The auction began.

About five or six women had their hands tied with a rope and were shoved onto the stage like animals. They came from different nations, had different skin colours, were barefoot, with injuries on their bodies, and barely dressed.

Isabelle responded, “I saved someone.”

Yves commented, “When did you become so kind–hearted? Was it a man or a woman? If it was a man, did he attempt to win you over?”

Isabelle looked at the stage and questioned, “What are your thoughts?

Yves shrugged. “If it was a woman, it’s alright.”
