Chapter 148
Maisie and Kennedy stood up and left with the hostess.
Willow’s face dropped when she saw them going to the first floor.
She heard that the first floor of the auction hall was only for people with a great social standing. Was it…
Nolan?
Willow bit her lip when she came to that realization. She was going to tear Maisie into shreds in front of
Nolan that night!
The hostess brought them to the Stork Room and saw four bodyguards standing behind the door.
Maisie was thinking if it was Nolan who was there, but the silhouette didn’t match.
Maisie was surprised when the man slowly turned around
The man wasn’t wearing a mask. His warm smile narrowed his pretty eyes. “Looks like I have a good
enough eyesight to recognize you.”

Maisie walked to the window and looked at the crowd below, curious. “Why are you here? Are you
interested in jewelry auctions too?”
This bigshot rarely appeared in public except for that one time at the party. He wouldn’t even be seen by
people in the industry, let alone attend events like these.!
His sudden appearance at the Summerton Auction was indeed a surprise!
Helios smiled. “I just received a script about jewelry companies, and I wanted to learn a thing or two. I
heard that you’re a jewelry designer too, so I came to see if I could meet you and if I could take
something back.”
“Thanks for the compliment, Mr. Boucher.”
Helios laid his arms on the railings in front of the window and looked at her. “There’s no need for
formalities. Just call me by my name.”
Maisie smiled but didn’t reply.
Her eyes were on him. He was indeed the idol of the nation. He had a charm that was better appreciated
from afar.
Only he could rival Nolan Goldmann when it came to looks or background in Bassburgh.
She had watched some of his movies. He was a natural actor with impeccable skills and could carry any
character, be it the protagonist or the antagonist.
He had had zero bad publicity after years of being in the industry, and the only pieces of news about him
were all about the characters he portrayed.
“Are you here to get some jewelry?” Helios looked toward her.
Maisie shook her head. “The opposite. I’m here to auction off my designs.”
“So you’re a seller.” Helios was interested. “I’m looking forward to your designs.”

Maisie was stunned,

She wouldn’t call herself his friend. They had just shared a dance during the party. If his ‘fans’ found out
they would probably skin her alive.
The auction began.
The auctioneer on the stage rang the bell.
The first item to be auctioned off was a pair of fan-shaped earrings made from pigeon blood rubies. The
seller was Taylor Jewelry.
The guests only needed to bid through their devices, and the prices would reflect the bids on the giant
screen of the auction hall.
Pigeon blood rubies were the prettiest of rubies. There weren’t many that could be classified as pigeon
blood rubies, and they were extremely expensive.
The price on the screen rose quickly to $70,000,000 and was still rising. It finally stopped at $
97,000,000.
The auctioneer rang the bell. “Congratulations to the guest in the Marble Room for placing the winning
bid.”
