Every single pedestrian looked like they were in a hurry as they rushed to complete whatever tasks they were assigned.

On the other hand, the patrons of the auction house were living in a completely different world which was a stark contrast to the bustling metropolis.

Every item on display had a price tag that made it inaccessible to those from average working-class. Even the rich tread with caution and kept their distance for fear that they might ruin any one of these items on exhibit which could cost a king’s ransom.

“Let’s look for a place to eat before attending the auction, shall we?” suggested Walter.

The party nodded eagerly as they had not eaten a thing throughout the journey.

Jared’s phone rang at that moment. Theodore called and asked him if he was going to attend the auction.

Jared told him that he was already at Jadeborough, to which Theodore expressed his delight by extending an invitation to Jared and his party to dine with him.

Jared was about to reject it as it would involve the mass coordination of too many people but remembered suddenly that Theodore’s influence might come in handy during his stay in Jadeborough. With that, he accepted the invitation.

Theodore was waiting at a restaurant with tasteful vintage decor. Theodore stood up to welcome Jared and his party when they arrived.

“Mr. Grange!” roared Theodore with a jovial smile. “What a pleasant surprise to see you here as well!”

“General Jackson!” Walter snapped into a salute.

Even before his retirement, his had to salute Theodore for his rank was lower than the latter.
