Chapter 220


    “Haha! It’s only right for him to kneel before me.” Terenceughed heartily.


    At his response, the group of men and women were surprised, for they had


    casually mentioned it, never expecting that the esteemed Terence would


    react this way. After all, even though they wanted to join the prestigious


    Quillen family’s dock, they might not qualify for it.


    In the next moment, they were even more shocked.


    Terence directly addressed Emmanuel, saying, “Did you hear that, Manny?


    Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Come to think of it now, as my grandson, you have never done that.”


    The men and women who had just wanted to bully Emmanuel were left


    dumbfounded. They stared at him in awe and fear. What the hell? He’s Old


    Mr. Quillen’s grandson? When did Old Mr. Quillen have a grandson?


    They all thought Emmanuel was just a pauper, but little did they know he was


    the grandson of the wealthiest man in Yeringham, meaning he was under a


    massive dock!

    Meanwhile, Emmanuel was momentarily stunned, feeling puzzled by their


    expressions. The rules of upper–ss society are so confusing.


    “Haha, never mind if you don’t want to. Is it because there are too many


    people here? I’ll wait for you in the VIP room ahead, then.” Terence was there


    to help Emmanuel out, and once the matter was resolved, he naturally


    wouldn’t continue mingling with those young people.


    As he walked away, the men and women surrounded Emmanuel once again,


    more enthusiastic than before.


    Emmanuel frowned, thinking that these people were going to make things


    difficult for him. Little did he expect their attitudes to bepletely different.


    “Sir, I apologize for earlier. I didn’t know you were Old Mr. Quillen’s grandson. I


    thought you were an outsider.”


    “By the way, what’s your name, handsome? Let’s be friends.”


    “Do you have time after the auction? Why not have fun with me?” One


    seductive woman daringly hugged his arm and shook it.


    Fortunately, as a gynecologist, Emmanuel was immune to such advances


    and simply pushed her away without sumbing to her charms. “Sorry, I’m


    not interested.”


    The woman felt offended, as many men would jump at the chance to be with


    her. Did he justpletely ignore me?


    After pushing her away, he entered the VIP room.


    When the young men and women outside saw that he was allowed in, they


    werepletely shocked. It seems that he has a very close rtionship with


    Old Mr. Quillen. After all, that was the exclusive VIP room of the auction which


    they didn’t even have the qualifications to enter.


    At this moment, Beatrix also arrived at the auction venue.


    She wasn’t there to buy anything but came because she couldn’t find her


    grandfather and went to ask the butler. The butler then informed her that her


    grandfather had brought Emmanuel to an auction. Upon further questioning, she learned that her


    grandfather wanted to help him buy a token of affection for Mackenzie.


    Damn! This is way too exciting! How could she miss such a big show? If she


    had known about this beforehand, she might even have had the chance to


    tease Mackenzie.


    However, she arrived slightlyte, and both Emmanuel and Terence had


    entered the VIP room. She was about to ask for directions when a man in a


    high–end pink suit appeared in front of her.


    “What are you doing, Mr. Verkade? Get out of my way.” Although she didn’t


    have any ill feelings toward Hubert, she couldn’t be bothered to talk to him at


    the moment.
