The next morning, Lucas picked up Corinne at the mansion. The two of them went to Agatha Auction House together.

Christine begged to go with Corinne. Not wanting to break her heart, Corinne decided to bring her along with ‘Bryan’ and Joey.

The two adults and three kids walked into the venue, and a manager quickly came out to welcome them.

“Welcome, Mister Lucas. Your private booth is ready. Allow me to bring you there now,” said the manager respectfully.

Lucas, who was carrying Christine in his arms, nodded and followed the manager. Corinne, who was holding the two boys in each hand, did the same.

Their private booth was located on the second floor, which allowed them to have a clear view of the fully-packed floor below.

Lucas glanced at the crowd below before going into their private booth. “This auction sure has attracted a lot of people. I’m guessing there’ll be some highly-sought items up for auction later?”

The manager smiled and nodded. “You’re right, Mister Lucas. Most of them are here for that piece of land on Serenity Bay.”

Lucas entered the private booth and sat on one of the chairs with Christine on his lap before saying to the manager, “No coffee. Bring some beverages that the kids can drink.”
