Chapter 129
The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Jnr Chapter 129
The rest of the day passed quickly and it was soon evening. Since the auction was being held in Vane city, Darius finished his preparations by 6pm. Vane city was an hour drive away from Sky Golden Hotel, and since he was not going alone but with Janet, he couldn‘t be late to the auction.
The auction was a high class one, so Darius didn‘t dare dress casually for the auction. He picked out the classy three piece suit he wore to the charity gala some months back, the quality shoes, and the limited edition wristwatch Bruce got for him.
He looked incredibly dashing, and was way handsome than he was during the charity gala. After being the head of a company for some time, he now had a sophisticated look to him.
He exited the presidential suite and walked to the car park, ignoring the intrigued stares he got from the staff and people present in the hotel. He entered his car and inputted the auction‘s house location in his car‘s GPS system, before driving out of the hotel.
After driving for a little more than an hour, Darius arrived at the venue for the auction. He parked his car neatly and then alighted from the vehicle before going towards the auction house.
The auction house was easily the biggest and the best auction house in Vane city, with more than half of the city‘s prominent people attending the auction regularly.
The auction house was built with the best building materials, and it was almost as tall as a skyscraper. There were also more than thirty luxurious cars parked at the entrance to the auction house, and several influential people alighted from the luxurious vehicles and made their way into the auction house.
Darius guessed that since the auction house was mainly reserved for the high class people, many affluent individuals would show up, however he was still surprised at the amount of people that showed up, and the influence they held. There were also people like him who came from another city to attend the auction.
Another peculiar thing Darius noticed was that despite the many influential
and affluent people present at the auction, there were no paparazzi or reporters present. This minor detail showed that the auction this time was being held low –key; therefore the paparazzi and reporters were not allowed to report on this.
While Darius was still watching the people arrive at the auction, a white luxurious Maybach 62 Landaulet suddenly arrived at the venue.
Of course, the arrival of the Maybach 62 Landaulet attracted the attention of the people present at the auction venue. After all, the Maybach 62 Landaulet was a luxury vehicle worth over $2 million.
Even though it seemed little compared to the sky high price of other vehicles, this particular Maybach was a customized one, so it would cost more than three times the initial price. This was not including the fact that the vehicle was also part of a limited edition series. This detail made it impossible for just anyone with a bit of money to afford the vehicle. One had to have a certain bit of status, prestige and background before you could buy the vehicle.
With everyone‘s attention on the vehicle, the Maybach came to a stop at the entrance. The door to the vehicle opened and a gorgeous blonde haired lady alighted from the vehicle.
The gorgeous blonde haired lady was none other than Janet Fox.
Darius was a bit taken aback at Janet‘s beauty. She was dressed in a sensual black gown that hugged her body tightly, showing off her supple curves and hourglass figure. Her fair and supple skin shone
under the night sky, and all the men who were present at that time were smitten by her beauty.
If it weren’t for the fact that Darius could now be considered her acquaintance, he would never believe that the person in question was still just a university student. The impression she gave off was not that of a university student, but that of a crown princess.
Janet had a stoic expression on her face as she alighted from the Maybach and glanced around the auction venue. The moment her eyes fell on Darius who stood still at an unoccupied comer, a breathtaking smile appeared on her face.
She ignored the stares of the people present and walked straight to where Darius stood before greeting him happily. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Darius! You‘re here!” Janet greeted happily.
“Yes.” Darius responded politely but curtly. He was not yet familiar with her, so he still felt the need to put some boundaries between them. Although he was now more open to her, the restrictions were still very much present.
Janet pouted at Darius‘ curt tone but made no comment about it. Instead she held his hands and guided him inside the auction house, ignoring the obvious looks of surprise and disbelief on the people attending the auction with them.
