Chapter 1736

The bar manager, appearing almost out of thin air, approached Mitchel with a flattering grin, dressed sharply in a black suit.

He wasted no time in personally escorting Mitchel to the backstage area to collect his prize.

Mitchel followed without a word, his demeanor calm and composed.

The staff showered him with warm hospitality, but Mitchel seemed unfazed as if this level of attention was nothing out of the ordinary.

He simply waited as the bartenders prepared to bring his prize.

Five minutes later, two bartenders struggled to carry the prize over, their faces flushed with effort.

The prize was a masterpiece made of white jade, not only exorbitantly priced but also surprisingly heavy, requiring two bartenders to Lift it.

“Mr.

Chadwick, you can check it now,” the manager said as he turned to Mitchel.

Mitchel examined the statue, his eyes sweeping over the intricate details.

After a moment, he nodded approvingly, another smile gracing his lips-this one just as mesmerizing as before.

Even the manager, who had seen countless wealthy patrons, couldn’t help but feel a flutter of admiration.

Mitchel’s smile was truly magnetic, capable of enchanting anyone.

“Mr.

Chadwick,” the manager began, doing his best to maintain composure.

“Could you provide us with an address? We’ll have someone deliver this to you tomorrow.

Mitchel considered Ariana’s situation and knew she would be at Mercy Hospital for the next few days, with Devin bringing Melon to visit her regularly.

Without hesitation, he provided the hospital’s address for the delivery.
