Chapter 5670
“The guy from yesterday?
“The one who has an arranged marriage with Billie?” Asher Klein muttered to himself in confusion.
“How did he get in here?
“Did Harlan give him an invitation?”
After pondering for a moment, Asher believed that to be the only possibility.
Billie Higgs was only a relative to the family, but Harlan’s wife, Whitley Cobb, was quite famous, making Harlan Higgs’ identity rise to the top as well.
The auction was relatively high profile, but it would be easy for Harlan to get an invitation for Harvey, judging from his status.
That said, Asher did not understand why Harlan would do such a thing.
“He’s not trying to show Harvey just how inferior he is compared to Billie…
“That said, an old fox like him might do just that.
“After all, because of the family’s credibility, voiding the arranged marriage won’t be easy.
“But Harlan didn’t need to wait this long just to do something like this…
“And now, Harvey’s even talking with Judith!
“He’s just trying to die at this point!”
Asher ignored a small fry like Harvey but would not want to miss out on a big show.
He casually grabbed a glass of champagne before leaning over the railing.
‘Let’s just treat this as an interlude before the auction…’
Harvey and Judith were happily chatting together.
It was not that Harvey was trying to enrage Billie.
But compared to her, Judith’s aloof yet kind attitude had made Harvey extremely fond of her.
Harvey was surprised when she talked about her family meeting a woman from a wealthy Mordu family. She had apparently been training herself in Aenar Temple.
He did not know if the woman was Mandy Zimmer, but this was a beneficial lead nonetheless.
Based on what he knew about Mandy, she had control over the ninth branch’s resources and the support of the family’s oldest branch.
Unless she revealed herself in public, she would be completely untraceable.
That said, Harvey did not disclose any of this. He took the initiative to exchange numbers with Judith, asking to have a meal with her another time.
When Harvey was about to keep his phone after saving Judith’s phone number, a suited strong man suddenly showed up from the side.
“Give me your phone, Judith. You can’t just put numbers of filthy worms in your phone.
“You’ll be tainted,” said Alvaro in an unquestionable tone.
He stepped in between Judith and Harvey as if he did not see the two talking with each other.
“This is my business. What’s it to you?”
Judith froze before showing panic in her eyes, then took a deep breath to compose herself.
“What’s it to me?
Alvaro shook his head.
“Your business is also mine.
“If you don’t, then I wouldn’t mind making this worm disappear from the face of the earth.”
“You…”
Judith’s face instantly turned pale.
When Billie was about to say something, Harvey picked his ear before speaking.
“Excuse me…
“Who are you talking about again?”
