NovelStartBrad was about to say hello to Nolan when his eyes fell on Skylar who was in the back. His heart
skipped a beat.
He walked past Nolan and took quick paces to Skylar right away.
“Mr. Stone, welcome.”
Brad took a more humble role when approaching Skylar.
What?
Brad, the head of the Moody household, treated Skylar with great respect.
Nolan and Yvonne were dumbfounded.
Although the Moody family was not the crème de la crème of society, they were powerful and wealthy.
There was no way Skylar was a cut above Brad.
Nolan’s face could not be any more sour.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe wanted to get the one-up on Skylar with the Oakleys’ connections to the Moodys. Alas, that turned
out to be a bust.
Faced with Brad’s eagerness to please, Skylar faintly uttered, “Don’t be nervous. I’m just here for the
auction.”
Hearing that, Brad could relax.
“Mr. Stone, let me show you the way.”
Brad said and personally ushered Skylar and Yulia to the auction venue.
The group, who followed behind Brad, was shocked by what happened.
They could not figure out the reason why Brad would demonstrate high esteem to a nobody. In fact,
there was reverence in Brad’s tone.
Someone among the group suddenly recalled something Warwick the butler said. Drawing a sharp
gasp, the person kept his head down without saying another word.
Once the group left, Nolan furrowed his brows and sullenly asked Yvonne, “Who is that Stone guy?
Why is the head of the Moody family giving him the highest honor?”
It took a while before Yvonne was able to pull herself together.
With her eyes flickering, she fell into deep ponder and replied, “The guy dabbles a little in homeopathy.
I don’t think he’s any good, but he has patients fooled. Maybe he has treated someone in Brad’s
family?”
Yvonne sought cancer patients to stir trouble at Kareem Fashion before, but Skylar managed to cure
someone with terminal stomach cancer in front of these patients.
Although it sounded plausible that the application of acupuncture could kick cancer’s butt, Skylar had
enough medical knowledge to deceive those patients.
Yvonne’s reply gave Nolan the assurance he needed. He smirked and said, “It seems Brad is only
attending to the Stone guy out of courtesy. I bet Brad won’t turn against the Oakley family because of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe guy.”
“Of course! The Oakleys aren’t lesser than the Moodys!”
Yvonne flattered.
“Come on. Let’s go to the auction.”
Nolah proudly uttered.
The pair made their way toward the venue.
The auction took place on the top floor of Moon Island Resort’s No. 1 building.
Skylar and Yulia sat in the middle of the first row under the stage.
As the estate owner, Brad sat next to them.
Brad had the inventory of the auction pieces delivered and presented the list with both hands to Skylar.
“Mr. Stone, this is the list of items to be auctioned later. You can take a look if you’re interested.”
Although Skylar made Brad cripple his son, Strickland’s hands in a club in Babylon, revenge was not
something Brad could think of.
Since then, Brad had used everything in his power and his extensive network to look into Skylar.
The investigation came up empty.
It once again confirmed Brad’s thoughts…
