Chapter 56 Thank You All
"Krister was furious. He originally intendedhad wanted to use the fake painting incident to ruin William's reputation and win Michelle's favor, but now it was completely the opposite had happened.
HNot only was he had humiliated himself, and but Michelle also liked William even more now.
Furthermore,And some people were secretly mocking him for, spending 38 million dollars on a fake painting and arrogantly demanding it to be revealed, only to end up embarrassing himself.
How could he tolerate these wordsis? And Krister blamed all this anger on William.
‘""William, I’ will make sure you fall from grace, William.’"" Krister couldn't bear the scrutiny of others. He had been laughedlaughed at and ridiculed at since childhood.
""KristerD, don't be angrymad, Krister. Let's go to the auction in the afternoon. Just don't let William in,"" Tim, the flatterer, said, showing his skill in sensing the atmosphere.
""YesThat’s right, Krister, why bother getting angry with a poor person from a poverty-stricken area?,"" Lauren also walked over. She was voluptuous and tall, with heavy makeup. Although she looked beautiful, one couldn't help but wonder how much she had undergone plastic surgery she had done.
""WKrister, why are you be angry atwith a poor person, Krister? Michelle doesn't fancymight not like you, but we do. Let's go and have fun at the auction later!"" Emily, who was cute and pretty, but still not up to par with Michelle, chimed in.
""Yeah."" Krister nodded reluctantly, realizing that he couldn't let his anger get the best of him.
Krister nodded and gradually calmed down, not wanting to go back in such a gloomy state. He had to reclaim his dignity.
The afternoon’s auction was clearlywould be a great opportunity, especially since there would be a mysterious necklace representing love as was the grand finale. Legend had it that the girl who wore thatis necklace would obtain the happiest love in the world, something every girl longed for.
After the crowd dispersed, Krister approached Michelle and shamelessly invited her to the auction., ""Michelle, there's an auction this afternoon. Would you like me to take you there? I heard that one of the items for sale is there's a mysterious necklace representing love. Do you want to have a look?""
Michelle ignored him and turned to William instead. ""William, do you want to go?""
Michelle had no interest in the auction. SAt this moment, she only wanted to be with William. His act of giving her the crown had completely intoxicated her; she felt that he was incredibly charming.
""A necklace representing love? Sure, I'll go."" William nodded. Growing up, he had never attended an auction before, and since he now owned Sunrise Exhibition was now his own business, it would be a good opportunity to get familiar with it.
As they were talkingtalked, Tim and the others followed along. Upon hearingWhen they heard that William also wanted to go to the auction too, Tim couldn't resist making fun of him. ""Sorry, only those with a net worth of tens of millions of dollars can enter the auction. A poor person like you from the impoverished district probably won't be able to get in.""
Tim sarcastically belittled William without any respect. Krister was quite elatedpleased with Tim's behavior, wanting to really mock him. A person from a poor background should know that he was poor have the consciousness of a poor person and not compete with him for a woman.
""If it takesyou have to have a net worth of ten million dollars, then I won't go either!"" Michelle wrinkled her nose in response.
Upon hearingWhen Krister heard that Michelle also wouldn't go, he Krister immediately became anxious. ""Don't worry, I'm good friends with the owner of the is exhibition hall, and I'm a gold card member here. I can bring you in.""
After entering, Krister planned that after entering, he wouldto discreetly have the security staff escort William out or find a way to embarrass him in front of the other attendees. He was determined to drive him away.
Krister had full confidence As for whetherthat the security staff would listen toobey him, Krister had full confidence. After all, it wshouldn't be a problem for him to ask John for a small favor from John.
After he drove William was driven out, he wcould be alone with Michelle and ultimately present her with the mysterious necklace that representinedg love. The scene would be soIt would be a romantic scene and would definitely touch Michelle's heart.
This plan was simply too perfect; Krister admired his own cleverness.
""Well then, let's go inside and see for ourselves!"" William smiled faintly.
""Yes, someone like you from the impoverished district can only enter with someone else in this lifetime."" The corner of William's mouth twitched a bit.
""Just look at that, how pitifulsad,"" Tim sneered unexpectedly.
""DTim, don't say that, Tim! He's trying to make a living on his own. Who knows, maybe he'll really make ten million dollars by the time he's in his eighties.? It's possible!"" Lauren's words carried were clearly sarcasticm.
""Yeah, ten million dollars is just a tiny amount for Krister. Some people struggle their whole lives and end up with only a fraction of the wealth others are born into. It's truly laughablesuch a joke.,"" Emily couldn't resist joining in with her mockery.
Krister found these comments quite pleasing; they struck a chord with him. Yes, some people worked their whole lives for just a fraction of what he hads.
But he still felt compelled to act pretentious and said, "said, "Emily, don't say that. Show some respect."respect."
""You guys...""...” Michelle was angry. They had degraded William so much, she was unable tocouldn’t bear it.
AJust as she was about to take William and leave, he grabbed her hand and responded with a smile.
""Why are you getting mad at someone who buysbuying fake paintings as gifts? Maybe he only spent a hundred dollars on it and pretended it was worth thirty-eight million. He didn’t Little did he know I brought the real deal, so he couldn't show off his wealth anymore.""
""William, what did you say? Say it again.,"" Krister was furious. This was had been ahis sore spot today, and now it was exposed again, igniting his temper.
"I can’t believe that "yYou, a pretentious buyer of fake paintings, dare to talk to me about wealth here.? I don't even know if you'll bere allowed into the auction, yet but you’re still acting pretentious with me.,"" William's voice held a tinge of anger. If he didn't teach them a lesson, they might think he was a coward who was 's easy to bully, a coward.
""Fine, I'll go in and show you when the auction starts this afternoon, I'll go in and show you,"" Krister angrily slammed his hand and left the exhibition hall. Tim, Lauren, and Emily followed him.
Seeing them storm out, Michelle smiled happily as she saw them storm out.
""William, I didn't expect you to be so good at cursinginsulting them, William. ThatIt was truly satisfying to hear.""
""There's more where that came from!"" William's lips curled into a faint smile.
During lunchtime, while Michelle was taking a break on the first floor of the exhibition hall, William sneaked up to the second floor where the auction was taking place and called the person in charge of the Sunrise Exhibition auction.
In less than twenty minutes, almost everyone from the auction rushed over to meet William, the new owner. Leading the group was a middle-aged man in his fifties or sixties, dressed in a black suit.
""Mr. Brown, I'm Evander, Mr. Brown. Boss Jones sent me here to assist you with the Sunrise Exhibition matters. Just let me know if you need anything.""
""Call Krister and have cancel his gold card canceled, then ban him from entering,"" William gave a casual order.
""Alright, Mr. Brown, I will have someone take care of thatit immediately,"" Evander nodded and responded.
William was satisfied and thought about how he wouldto enter the auction later in the afternoon."
