Chapter 2739


    ?


    Later that night, Nathan and Penny showed up at Victoria Auction House in in clothes with Carlos.


    The venue was huge as it could amodate over a thousand seats, and there were barely any empty ones.


    The men who showed up were all dressed in suits, whereas the women wore elegant evening gowns. Each and every one of the guests was a wealthy and powerful person.


    Nathan and the others had just entered the venue when a chubby middle-aged man stepped forward with a few subordinates to greet them.


    "Hahaha! Nice to see you here tonight, Ambassador Knight!"


    Carlos looked a little surprised when he saw the middle-aged man. "Mr. Leatham! What a coincidence!" he said politely.


    The middle-aged man was a famous Eurasian tycoon named "Donovan Leatham."


    With a worth of tens of billions, he was quite well-known in the Eurasian business circle of Eaglnd. Since he often went to the embassy for help with his issues, he became acquainted with Carlos as a result.N?velDrama.Org content.


    Donovan narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "I hear there will be tons of Eurasian treasures being auctioned here tonight. Those treasures have been scattered all over the world for a long time. Are you nning on buying some as a form of contribution to the country, Ambassador Knight?" "Yes, but I don''t think I can afford to. Given your wealth, Mr. Leatham, I''m sure you could buy a thing or two for Eurasia!" Carlos replied.


    Donovan chuckled. "Money isn''t a problem for me. I''ll see if I find anything interesting."


    As he shifted his gaze toward Nathan and the others, he couldn''t help but feel amazed when he saw Penny and Ava.


    D*mn, these two are pretty!


    “Who are these people, Ambassador Knight?" Donovan asked in the most casual-sounding way possible.


    Nathan had told Carlos to keep his identity a secret because the prices would surely go up if people knew the President of Eurasia hade to reim the country''s treasures.


    As such, Carlos felt a little uncertain about how he should introduce Nathan when Donovan asked about them.


    While he was still hesitating, Nathan said calmly, "My name is Nathan Cross. Ambassador Knight told me there''d be an auction tonight and brought me over."


    For some reason, Donovan had not the slightest clue that Nathan was the President of Eurasia.


    Thinking that Nathan was just a rtive of Carlos, he paid no heed to


    Nathan whatsoever.


    He shifted his lecherous gaze toward Penny and Ava as he continued, "And what about you two lovelydies over here?"


    Carlos'' face changed instantly when he realized Donovan''s intention. "This is Mr. Cross'' wife, Penny Smith. The one next to her is her bodyguard, Ava Quinn."


    Donovan could tell from Carlos'' stern expression that he was trying to give him a warning.


    Oh? This Nathan


    guy must be really close with Ambassador Knight if he''s warning me to stay away from Penny! Geez... I may be a pervert, but I do know to stay away from married women! Was that stern attitude really necessary? Content belongs

    Donovan immediately dropped whatever intentions he had toward Penny after learning that she was Nathan''s wife.


    However, he then set his sights on Ava, who was still single.


    She looked really pretty with her exquisite facial features, amazing figure, and slender legs.


    On top of all that, her military upbringing gave her a unique vibe that ordinary womencked.


    Despite having no makeup on, Ava looked so charming that even a womanizer like Donovan found himself turned on the moment he saw her.


    "Hello, Ms. Quinn! My name is


    Donovan Leatham, and I have established a bit of a reputation


    here. Just let me know if you everet


    need help with anything, okay? + really love making new friends Donovan said with a smile while handing her a gold-ted business card in an attempt to impress her.


    He believed that a mere bodyguard like Ava, who risked her life for money on a daily basis, would be easily charmed by his wealth. Unfortunately for Donovan, he was in for a huge disappointment.


    He had barely gotten close to Ava when she raised a hand at him and warned, "Hold it right there. Please keep your distance from Mrs. Cross or will use force."
