The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 819

The next few rounds of the auction were tense enough to make your heart race. Charlotte and Franco kept going after the same drugs, raising the stakes every time. Each bid pushed the price higher and higher, neither of them backing down.

By the end, Charlotte managed to win ten drugs, while Franco got five. The ones she lost weren’t a big deal, except for one that belonged to the N Organization. The rest didn’t really matter.

Adonis placed the boxes of medicine in front of Charlotte, still frowning. “Charlotte, Franco is acting really weird today.”

Anyone could see Franco had let her win.

“With his resources, it’s not like he cares about this kind of money,” Adonis added.

Charlotte took the box and studied it. “These aren’t all that useful for him.” She figured Franco probably had the same goal as she did—just adding another layer of insurance for any new drug research. Honestly, it was possible that none of these medicines would end up being useful.

Still, it was unexpected that Franco would just let her have them. Adonis clearly wasn’t the only one surprised. The rest of the buyers had gone from shocked to just plain stunned. Franco being this “kind” and “generous” was basically unheard of.

Nobody in the room believed that the person in Suite 2 had nothing to do with Franco. People stopped caring about the auction itself and started whispering, wondering who could be hiding behind the door of Suite 2.

Meanwhile, in the suite next door, Sunlight hadn’t looked happy for a single second since the auction started. He kept glancing at the entrance to Suite 2, eyes sharp.

“Did you find out who’s in Suite 2?” he asked in a low voice.
