His voice was deep and pleasant, like the sound of a cello.
Louis Caesar nced around at the guests present. In the end, his eyes fell on Martha, who was in an off-the-shoulder evening dress.

As soon as the host finished speaking, those people sitting under raised their bidding paddles and call out their ideal price.
“1, 500, 000.”
“1, 800, 000.”
…
People were bidding.
Martha looked at the lots on the auction stage with little interest… She was not interested in any of them. She came here tonight just to get acquainted with Louis and see if there was a chance of cooperation.
Just when she was bored, she raised her eyes inadvertently to meet an affectionate gaze.
Martha noticed that Louis, who was sitting not far away, seemed to be staring at her.
The man’s eyshes were very long, and his blue eyes were very beautiful. He looked at her as if she was a treasure.
Martha’s heart skipped a beat. The man’s facial features seemed to be carved by God himself. He had no ws. She couldn’t help admiring his perfection in her heart.
Suddenly, he smiled at her gently. Her eyshes fluttered slightly, and she felt that the world became brighter.
She was amazed by his beauty.
She smiled politely at him.
It would be a good thing for her if she could leave a good impression on Mr. Louis.
Later, she focused on the auction again.
There were only ten lots. Thepetition was fierce for each one. They were all auctioned for a much higher price than then their value.
Two hourster, the auction came to an end. The host was introducing thest lot.
“The next one is thest lot today. It’s Blue Ocean Ne.”
“A foreign couple made it for their daughter in thest century. Later, their daughter died in the war, and this ne was lost until it was bought by Louis many years ago.”
“This ne also has another name, Special Love. The starting price is five million.”
As soon as the host spoke, someone raised the paddle, and before that person could speak, another person bade.
“6 million.”
…
After half an hour ofpetition, the price had already reached 10 million, but people were still increasing their bids.
Everyone present was rich.

Mr. Louis’ maic voice came faintly…
“Sorry, I don’t n to auction thest lot today. I’ve found its owner, my muse.”
People were silent for a while and then started whispering.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay, wondering who was the lucky one to be the muse of Mr. Louis.
Louis picked up the ne, walked down the stage step by step, and walked towards the seats.
Others saw him walk towards Martha step by step.
“My muse, would you ept this gift?”
The reporters at the auction immediately caught this scene.
The lights flickered. Martha was caught off guard.
Martha stood up from her seat in astonishment, looking at the man in front of her, unable to breathe for a while.
She couldn’t believe it.
“Mr. Louis, me? Are you sure?”
The man chuckled and said with certainty, “Yes, I am sure. You are my muse.”
Martha was even more shocked. She never thought that Louis would say that.
There were so many people watching…
She unconsciously clenched her hands, hesitant.
She didn’t know whether she should ept such an expensive gift.
It would be rude of her to reject Louis in front of so many people.
But if she epted it, what gift would she return?
Besides, she didn’t do anything. So she didn’t understand what was the gift for.
Just when Martha was in a dilemma, a cold voice came from not far away, breaking the deadlock…
“Sorry, she’s already married.”
Everyone looked over, only to see Stefan show up.
He was walking towards Martha step by step, his cold eyes narrowed. The air pressure around his body was so low that people couldn’t breathe…
