The middle-aged man spun around. Seeing who had tapped his shoulder, his scowl instantly melted into a fawning grin. "Mr. Zimmerman? You... You must be joking. I'd never dare summon you."

Without warning, George, who had just appeared, slapped the man hard across the face. You piece of trash! How dare you talk to Mr. Zeller like that?"

Mr. Zeller? -guy "Mr.

The man's mind went crazy as he started to panic. Did George really call this guy Zeller"? No way! Felix was Wendy's friend, so his social status had to be so low that he would not even be fit to lick Sean's boots. But the evidence was right in front of him, and he did not dare doubt it. "Mr. Zimmerman, please forgive me. I had no idea."

Another slap landed.

George waved his hand dismissively. "Get out! You're not even worthy of apologizing to Mr. Zeller. Tell Sean Jackman about this. He'll know how to deal with it.'

"Yes, yes! I'm leaving right now!"

Felix kept quiet. With George stepping in, Wendy was out of the woods.

"Hey, Mr. Zeller, I hope I didn't crash anything? That jackass is just Sean's lackey for dirty work. He's brainless and not even worth mentioning."

The fact that George could not be bothered to explain who Sean was spoke volumes about their status gap. After all, the fact that Sean could dish out a Golden Prime Auction ticket meant his family background was not ordinary. "What... What about this ticket?" Wendy was still reeling from the revelation that Felix had such clout even in Yartford. In her book, Sean was already the top dog.

"Anyone can snag the auction list. If you've got your eye on something, go for it. If not, sell it off before kickoff for cash or favors. This thing is gold.

Prompted by George, Wendy was still on the fence until Felix chimed in, "The ticket's yours now. Do whatever you want with it. Just let me know if you want to check it out." Reassured, Wendy watched Felix and George leave. She then quickly rang her dad. Vincent could squeeze way more value out of this ticket than she could.

"Oh, yeah, Mr. Zeller. I wanted to ask-do you know Lady Nala, too?"

Lady Nala?

Felix looked puzzled. Dragonia was not exactly crawling with royalty, so what gave?

"Never heard of her. What's with her title?"

Now it was George's turn to be surprised, but he became relieved and said, "Ah, my bad. I figured since you knew Yvonne, you'd be in with Lady Nala, too! "She's not royalty or anything. 'Lady' is just a nickname our crowd gave her. She's so high and mighty, so it fits."

One thing clicked for Felix-Yvonne definitely had someone in her corner. And for George

because to talk like this, that someone must be a real heavyweight. "Did you bring this up she's hitting the auction, too?"

George nodded. "Yeah. She attends the auction every year. Better pray what you're after doesn't catch her eye. If not, there's no chance you'll be able to get it." Felix was not sweating it. No one was going to keep him from the Moon's Tear. It was his ticket to freedom, or even his shot at happily ever after.

In the hotel ballroom, plush, oversized armchairs were neatly lined up, each over three feet apart. Clearly, the guest list for this shindig was pretty exclusive. Chapter 266
