“Are his talismans a gift from the gods or something? Why is it so expensive?” Alex blurted out.

He had kept his voice down, but it was enough for Damian to catch what he said. Damian looked up and trained his eyes on Alex and his brows furrowed into a deep frown.
Pushing the crowd aside, Damian strode over to Alex and studied him from head to toe. “Do you have something against my talismans, my friend?”
“I just don’t think that it’s worth two hundred thousand,” Alex said flatly.
“What nonsense!” someone shouted. “Don’t you know that two hundred thousand is only the starting price?”
“That’s right! Even if it’s two million, there are still many people dying to get one.”
“I bet he’s the kind that could only afford those cheap charms from the temples!”
Damian glanced at Alex and scoffed. “Watch your mouth and use your brain. Don’t act smart when you’re clearly not!”
At that, he turned around and walked into the venue on his own.
Alex’s expression was impassive as ever, he did not see Damian as someone worthy of his attention.
Maggie, however, was a little embarrassed. “My apologies, Mr. Jefferson. Mr. Kline’s temper tends to act up.”
However, what she said was a lie since she was not close to Damian at all; she was just trying to make Alex feel better.
Alex shook his head nonchalantly. “Let’s go in.”
After the guests took their seats, Fabian walked onto the stage and spoke a few words as the master of Breezeworth Hall, before commencing the start of the auction.
“Let the auction begin!” he announced.
Due to the last–minute cancellation of the previous auction, the items to be auctioned off as well as the number of guests doubled this time around.
Two female ushers of the hall pushed a cart that carried the first item onto the stage. It was an incense burner made out of red copper, with a stick of incense inside emitting a fragrant white smoke.
The auctioneer, Frederick began his introduction. “This is a backflow incense burner from a thousand years ago, gifted to a talented artist by the emperor of that era. The incense that comes with it was used exclusively in the palace, and the common folk had no access to it. The manufacturing process of this incense has been lost over time, but its aroma has the ability to make one more alert and happier!”
