Chapter 223
What was going on?
In the blink of an eye, a thousand thoughts ran through Jeremy’s head. He finally realized what happened.
When Andrius confidently made the call yesterday and asked a woman named Ms. Timberland to buy the resort, Jeremy then received a call from Sonia after a while.
Sonia had offered 300 million to purchase his resort.
He also thought of the men who had r*ped him. They must also be under Andrius‘ command. They all looked vicious and intimidating and not a part of them looked like common citizens. They must be from prison.
Andrius was not just a nameless guy from the mountains!
He was not pretending! He was someone powerful, so powerful that even Sonia revered and respected
him.
The more he pondered, the more anxious he got. He sweated profusely and wet his expensive shirt.
Thud!
He knelt down before Andrius and started to plead, “Mr. Moonshade, please forgive me. I was blind and I was not myself yesterday. Please forgive me. Spare me once, and I will do anything!”
Jeremy pleaded and cried on his knees.
Andrius ignored him and said to the security guards, “Take him away and send him to room 305.”
The men he summoned from prison had finished their meals and rested, so the ‘game‘ continued.
The security guards already knew that Andrius was the new boss of the resort. Therefore, they carried out his first order meticulously.
They disregarded Jeremy’s struggles and screams and brought him away.
After Andrius dealt with Jeremy, he received a call from Luna.
She sounded annoyed. “Andrius, where are you? The auction is happening soon! Come down to the restaurant and have breakfast!”
The call ended.
Andrius headed to the restaurant immediately.
Luna was halfway done. She looked at him with a straight face and said, “I said you could take a stroll and you went to have fun? Look at the time! Hurry up and finish your breakfast, or we won’t make it in time!”
Luna glared at Andrius, seemingly trying to blame him for not being punctual.
Andrius had gotten used to her attitude, so he was not overly bothered. He munched on his breakfast quickly.
Then, a thought about the auction rushed into his mind. He simply asked, “Riverfront Entertainment should be a hot cake. How much funds have you prepared?”
“200 million,” Luna said without a second thought.
200 million?
Andrius might not be an insider, but he knew that the Riverfront was a promising company with a future. The celebrities that it signed up had large fanbases, so it would definitely grow.
200 million was not enough. He believed that Luna knew it as well.
Luna suddenly looked disheartened. She explained, “We got a billion last time, but in order to hasten the progress on the Valiant Institute project, I invested a portion into it. Plus some smaller projects, here and there… 200 is my limit.”
Andrius frowned when he heard her but he did not say a word.
If the bidding price for Riverfront Company exceeded 200 million, he had plans to use his own money to get the company for Luna. He would consider it a present to her. It was no big deal.
After breakfast, the two of them headed to the auction hall.
A few steps later, a young man in an Armani suit stopped Luna. He whistled and teased her frivolously,” Hey, girl. I like you. Can I have your number? Let’s be friends.”
Luna sized the man up from top to bottom and saw nothing but branded items. She was not bothered though. She simply asked, “Who are you? Why should I be friends with you?”
Several other men came out from behind the young man, all looking arrogant and proud.
“Hey, babe. This is the young master of the Millers from the capital, Charlie Miller!”
“Young Master Miller wants to befriend you because he likes you. Don’t be such a killjoy.”
“Yeah.”
“Hurry up. Tell us your phone number. Stop wasting our time.”
They sounded pushy and rude, and it disgusted Luna.
Andrius was similarly angry as well. Luna was his nominal wife, yet the punks were teasing his wife in
front of him.
Was he invisible? Or non–existent?
“Hey, you..
