The billionaire's kick-ass wife novel (Isabella) novel Chapter 354

Chapter 354 Gift For Miss Lockwood

The higher-ups of the underground chamber of commerce noticed the president seemed to be in a good mood today. They could sense the curl on the corners of the president’s lips had deepened compared with previously. There were even some emotions from the bottom of his heart.

“Is everything ready?”

Joshua looked around and asked gently.

All the higher-ups nodded and said that they were perfectly ready.

Joshua nodded. “That’s great. This auction concerns living metal. There must not be any mistakes.”

“Yes, sir.”

After giving instructions to the higher-ups, someone came to report that James had arrived.

The expressions of the higher-ups remained unchanged. They had gotten used to James’s existence.

This Mr. Beck was not simple.

When he returned to Mystical Island half a year ago, he proactively looked for the president, saying he wanted to cooperate with him.

As soon as the higher-ups left, Joshua’s expression suddenly changed. He said excitedly, “Will the patriarch really come tonight?”

James could understand his excitement very well. He reached out and patted his shoulder, saying, “Yes. Patriarch is probably almost here.”

As soon as James finished speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up. He pointed at the surveillance camera screen on the wall opposite him and said, “Theo, look, the patriarch is here!”

Joshua quickly looked over and saw Draxton’s figure.

But Draxton was holding a little girl in his arms. A stunning beauty with a graceful figure was also beside him.

Joshua’s eyes lit up as he said, “Are those patriarch’s wife and Miss Lockwood?”

James nodded and said, smiling, “That’s right. I’m sure you know the patriarch’s wife’s status in the Lockwood family.”

Theo said, “Of course. I’m not that two idiots, Martin and Alan.

“And the people of Big Dipper. I heard they have been currying favor earnestly to win back the patriarch’s wife’s favor.”

He beamed and said, “I’m smart all this while. I see that currying favor with the patriarch’s wife is more useful than with the patriarch.”

As he spoke, the smile on his face broadened.

James could not help but laugh.

Theo was indeed a very cunning guy.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have become the owner of the underground chamber of commerce these years.

Draxton and Patriarch Grey entered the auction hall together. During this time, Patriarch Grey kept glancing on top of Betty’s head.

Isabella curled her lips and smiled coldly. It seemed that Patriarch Grey had noticed Silver General on Betty’s head.

That was right. It was Silver General, not his General Red.

As she was nestling in Draxton’s arms, Betty’s eyes were full of amazement as she looked at the bustling auction hall.

“Wow! Dad, Mom, this place is so huge. I can’t even see its end!”

She said in a soft childish voice, but her tone sounded like an adult.

“This auction hall can accommodate tens of thousands of people. Betty, stay calm. Please stay calm!”

Though Isabella said that, her face also revealed the same amazement.

Looking at them, the smile in Draxton’s eyes was evident. He said dotingly, “We can come here often if you like this place.”

Upon hearing what he said, Patriarch Grey’s and Hayden’s eyes could not help but reveal mocking expressions.

Draxton was so arrogant. What kind of place did he think this underground chamber of commerce was? Was it a place that they could come at will?

They could come here today because of their Grey family!

If it weren’t for the Grey family’s invitation and brought them along, could they enter here?

At this moment, both Patriarch Grey and Hayden felt this Draxton was just an average person. He was also a little funny.

Being so arrogant, he would definitely be humiliated by someone.

They were just waiting to see them make a fool of themselves.

At this moment, the auction hall was already filled up. It was fully occupied.

This did not include the private room upstairs.
