The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 2431

The auction was held at another five-star hotel in Ocean City.

The five-star hotel named Ocean City Hotel was one of the few top hotels in
Ocean City that could compete with Greenview Hotel.

They parked in the parking lot, and Titus led them into the hotel.

On the hotel's second floor was a connected function room, which the auction
house had reserved to host the auction.

The auction house called Winter Green Auction House was just one of the local
auction houses in Ocean City.

Although they were not weak, they were no match for the previous Victory
Auction House from Janestown.

Perhaps Ocean City Hotel deliberately built several rooms similar to private
rooms in the huge function room on the second floor because they often
cooperated with Winter Green Auction House.

These private rooms were much higher than the ones below. It looked as if they
were above everyone else.

There were eight private rooms, ranked from one to eight.

When Sean and the rest arrived, seven of the private rooms were already
occupied, and only Private Room 1 was still available.

Sean and the others were ushered into Private Room 1 by the auction house's
staff.

Private Room 1 was the private room that Titus booked by phone when they
were in Greenview Hotel earlier.

Someone else had reserved Private Room 1 earlier, but few people could match
Titus’ status in Ocean City. Winter Green Auction House tactfully gave Private
Room 1 to Titus.

The private room was small-only 20 to 30 square meters.

However, there were many amenities, including two liquor cabinets containing
many expensive liquors.

The auction house prepared it to give the VIPs in their private rooms something
to drink when they were bored.

The VIPs naturally needed to pay for the liquor, and the bill would be settled after
the auction ended.

"Hello, everyone! Thank you for making time to attend Winter Green Auction
House's auction!

"The list of the auction items has been placed in your seats. You must have seen
it!

"The auction has a total of 15 auction items this time. It's not a lot. If you're
interested, it's better to strike as soon as possible to avoid others winning the
auction item you like!"

The host came on stage and made a brief speech.

Then, a tall and beautiful woman in a gown stepped onto the stage.

She took the microphone from the host and briefly introduced herself as the
auctioneer, Sienna Quartz.

"Brother Lennon, you may not know this, but Sienna is Mr. Quartz's only
daughter!”

Titus said suddenly.

Sean also paused slightly, shocked that the beautiful woman was Jadon's
daughter.

The two did not look like father and daughter. Jadon was not ugly, but he was not
handsome either. He wondered how Jadon was related to such a beautiful
daughter.

As if noticing Sean's confusion, Titus said with a smile, "Mr. Quartz is lucky to
marry the most beautiful woman in Ocean City at the time and raise such a
beautiful daughter!

"Sienna is 23 years old. Many have gone to Quartz Residence to ask for her
hand since she turned 18!

"But I heard that Sienna doesn't seem interested in men. She has always been
harsh to men!

"By the way, Winter Green Auction House is one of the

Quartz family’s businesses..."

Sean raised his eyebrows at that, but he did not take Titus’ words to heart. The
Quartz family was not weak, so running an auction house was not unusual.

He was more interested in Titus" affairs than the auction house. He then looked at
Titus and asked with a smile. "You didn't ask the Quartz family for her hand
either, did you?"

"Ahem! I didn't want to do it. My dad forced me!"

Titus scratched his head sheepishly when Sean saw through him. He then
added, "My dad said he'd disown me if I didn't ask the Quartz family for Sienna's
hand!"
