    Owen nodded in agreement, realizing the truth in that,

    “Take a look at that ssmp, the antique porcin te, and the nature–themed decorative


    screen. These are all items that Mr. Ra there is particrly fond of


    “Mr. Bartlett over there has a particr fondness for this briar wood pipe and the perfume bottle.


    Though they’re quite valuable, catering to his preferences could be very helpful in expanding our


    business in the future. Max said.


    Max was exceptionally knowledgeable about the preferences of those high–profile figures, thanks to


    a subtle tip from Valerie. Her intention had been for Max to discreetly pass the information to Owen,


    hinting that those people could be manipted. Owen quickly caught on and began. cing bids


    frequently as soon as the event started.


    Tyrell beside him was impressed and surprised by Owen’s generosity. He thought, “Wealthy people


    are different spending money without even blinking an eye.


    Watching Owen continuously ce bids and sessfully acquire four items, all aimed at pleasing


    the two high–profile figures. Max felt relieved. He had fulfilled the tasks Valerie had entrusted to him,


    and now it was up to Owen to see what he would do next


    In truth, Max had never liked Owen–he found him arrogant, ruthless, and notorious for his cunning


    tactics in business. It was well known that Owen was not someone to be easily crossed, and Max


    was no exception to this awareness. Seeing Owen finally wrap everything up, Max couldn’t help but


    nod in acknowledgment..


    Owen let out a deep breath, feeling that it was about time. Seeing that others at the auction had


    also made their acquisitions, he eagerly patted Tyrell on the back and said, “Let’s go outside and get


    some fresh air Since they were already on the Vontois, he wanted to enjoy the scenery, especially


    the sight of Tyrell.


    Seeing that everyone else had gradually secured their desired items and left, Tyrell followed Owen


    our With Owen by his side, he had nothing to worry about. Besides, with a wealthy benefactor like


    Owen ensuring his safety. Tyrell was eager to make a good impression today


    Once they were outside, Owen and Tyrell began to drink together. Tyrell congratted him, hoping


    to build a better rtionship with Owen. However, Owen’s gaze grew increasingly intense, not


    reflecting the usual affection from a senior to a junior but rather an overt, lingering interest. Tyrell,


    completely unaware, remained focused on ttering Owen.


    As soon as they were outside, Owen’s associates approached, pretending to be sessful figures


    while drinking with Tyrell. Not ustomed to such situations, Tyrell quickly became drunk. Owen


    couldn’t help butugh when he saw Tyrell’s flushed face, noting to himself how inexperienced the


    young man was, getting drunk so quickly.

    Owen parted Tyrell on the back and said. “Come on, let’s head to my room so you can rest. You


    can’t handle your liquor too well! There’s more toeter, and you don’t want to miss it. Tyrell,


    unsteady on his feet, followed him, while his assistant was stopped by security guards who blocked


    the way.


    “Alright, Mr. Anderson and Mr. Willkins have a business to discuss, so you should stay back. If he


    wants to be popr, he needs to follow Mr. Anderson!” The two assistants, seeing the situation,


    knew they couldn’t intervene and could only wait anxiously from a distance.


    Once Tyrell was brought into the room, several of Owen’s men followed. They eagerly poured a


    ss of water, adding something to it before handing it to Tyrell Owen showed no concem for


    privacy in this matter. Already disoriented from the alcohol, Tyrell was taken aback when he saw


    Owen wrapping his arms around him.


    “Drink up, and you’ll be in for a great time,” Owen said. Tyrell, taken aback and rmed,


    immediately refused


    “Not going to drink? Then it won’t be up to you!” Owen said.


    Valerie watched the entire scene unfold. When Charles informed her that Owen had taken a new,


    up–anding actor to his room, Valerie was shocked. She hadn’t expected Owen to find


    someone so suitable on his own. “Does this mean our people weren’t even needed?” Valerie


    asked.


    Charles nodded. “Yes, Tyrell Wilkins was targeted as soon as he arrived. Should we intervene


    now?”


    “Absolutely. This is a rare opportunity, and if we don’t act now, we might not get another chance like


    this, Valerie said. Hearing this, Charles nodded and went with her to address the situation.


    Owen’s room was specially designed, with hidden features within it. When Tyrell saw that Owen was


    about to force him, he pushed him away and tried to flee. However, Owen quickly grabbed him and


    pulled him back.


    “Stay outside and don’t let anyone in!” Owenmanded. He then turned to Tyrell and said, “Good


    things don’te for free. If you want to benefit from being with me, you need to put in the effort.


    Tyrell you have potential. Tonight is a great opportunity. If you serve me well, you’ll be the lead in


    my next project!”


    Owen’s words left Tyrell pale with fear. While he had heard about industry practices before, he had


    never encountered anything like this. He had been told that some big names in the industry had


    particr preferences, and sometimes artists had no choice but toply.

    However, Tyrell could not ept this, especially since Owen was in his fifties. Seeing Owen’s


    demeanor made Tyrell nearly sick to his stomach, and he could not bring himself to go along with


    “Mr. Anderson, please don’t force me into this. I’m not that kind of person Tyrell eximed.


    “Not that kind of person?” Owen snickered. “Isn’t it true that as an artist, you rely on the resources


    you can acquire! Here’s a prime opportunity right in front of you–just strip off your clothes and it’s


    yours. What’s the difference? Who are you aligning with?”


    Owen’s words made Tyrell frown deeply. “I won’t agree to that! Mr. Anderson, even though I’m just


    an ordinary artist, I will never betray myself


    Owen sneered and scoffed, “People like you are a dime a dozen. They all say they won’t betray


    themselves at first, but in the end, they all end up doing exactly that for the resources.” Tyrell,


    feeling frustrated and dizzy, struggled to stay conscious. He couldn’t believe that Owen was such


    cunning


    At this moment, Valerie and her team had arrived. The room, specially designed in Steucia style,


    had a mechanism that caused the dinghy it was on to detach from therger vessel and head back


    to the dock. Owen waspletely unaware of this, still engrossed in his activities with Tyrell


    He stripped off his clothes and sneered at Tyrell. “Come on, it’s just this. It’s nothing serious. If you


    cooperate, I’ll make sure this trip is worth your while!” At that moment, Owen grabbed Tyrell and


    attempted to force himself on him


    Suddenly, there was a loud click as a door on the other side of the room opened, and Owen’s face


    turned pale with fear. He turned to see Valerie emerging from a hidden door, holding a camera and


    recording, Seeing her, Owen’s face darkened. “Valerie Warren, it’s you! How did you get in bere?”
