Chapter 222 I’m Willing to Spend Whatever It Takes

• Emmanuel decided not to probe further, and Terence, too, didn't consider Emmanuel a fool. Instead, he perceived his trust as a unique form of intelligence. Emmanuel reminded him of his younger self, who wouldn't be guarded against those he trusted, and would only get help from those that he trusted. Emmanuel didn't ask any more questions not because he had no suspicions of his own, but because Emmanuel had placed his trust in him.

The auction was already underway, and the exquisite jewelry was being sold off by the professional female auctioneer.

Even through the screen, Emmanuel couldn't help but be mesmerized by its dazzling brilliance.
• "What a stunning gemstone carving. Mackenzie will surely love it!" Emmanuel couldn't help but sigh with admiration.
