Chapter 187 - Marcus’ Probing

    <h4>Chapter 187: Marcus’ Probing</h4>


    “Miss, I haven’t asked you yet. What’s your name?” Marcus bent down to look at Audrey, a smile on his face.


    This look did not seem like the same person as the cold and emotionless bank president from before.


    Audrey naturally felt the goodwill he exuded towards her and smiled. “My name is Catherine. Nice to meet you.”


    Catherine… was it? An ordinary name.


    Marcus’s eyes were filled with disappointment. He had thought that this little girl in front of him woulde from some noble family. After all, she had such a powerful item in her hands.


    However, he did not expect her to be an unknown person.


    He pressed the tip of his tongue against the back of his teeth and continued to ask, “If I may ask, where did you study?”


    “Mist Mountain Academy.” Audrey narrowed her eyes and smiled. She appeared to be very easy to get along with.


    She had randomly made up a school that she had heard of. As she did not want to expose her identity, she could not reveal such information.


    After all, within the Temr Knights, they were basically members of the five great ns. If she told the truth, she would be suspected.


    “Mist Mountain Academy, huh…” Marcus repeated what she said as if he was talking to himself.


    He had heard of Mist Mountain Academy before, but it had not been very popr in the past few years. He did not know if there were any geniuses or something like that.


    However, since this little girl in front of him had already taken out such a powerful potion, there must be some secret hidden in Mist Mountain Academy.


    Marcus curled the corners of his lips, trying his best to make himself look a little gentler.


    “Alright, this school is pretty good.


    “As for your item, we’re still discussing when we’ll let you sell it at the auction.


    “Perhaps we can today. Why don’t you go to the private room to rest for a while? After we’ve discussed it, someone will contact you.”


    He spoke in a very polite manner.


    Audrey naturally agreed. As soon as the manager finished speaking, a person dressed in a knight’s uniform appeared beside her. He bowed to her politely and said, “Madam, please follow me.”


    Audrey agreed. Before she left, she turned around and nced at Reginald.


    Reginald waved at her with a smile on his face. Only then did she leave with peace of mind. As he watched her disappear into the corner of the corridor, the smile on Marcus’ face disappeared.


    He raised his hand slightly, and a door beside him suddenly appeared. Then, it slowly opened in front of everyone. Apparently, he had usedbat aura toy down ayer of hidden protection, revealing arge conference room inside.


    Looking at the few capable subordinates beside him, Marcus pressed the tip of his tongue against his back teeth and took the lead to walk in. The wall was closed after they entered, and the sound was extremely soft, no one seemed to notice that a door had actually appeared on this wall just now.


    Marcus pulled open the chair in the conference room and sat on the main seat. He stretched out his hand to support his chin. “Tell me, what are the thoughts of the few of you?”


    As soon as he said this, the people around him looked at each other. Although they had worked here for a long time, they had never seen such a big scene.


    It was the few bottles of medicine that they had just seen. It was not an exaggeration to say that if they were to go to the royal family, it would definitely cause a stir. After all, there were too many of them.


    Reginald frowned and finally spoke first.


    “In a while, we can’t release the notice and issue the invitation like we usually do. We must get rid of such an important item as soon as possible.”


    After all, if the items were to be stored here for a long time, it was very likely that it would arouse the suspicion of some upper-ss society. Thest time, they had three bottles of level-10 potions. Before the auction started, they were directly intercepted by the trusted aides sent by the king, which caused them a huge loss.


    “Do you mean today?” Marcus asked.


    Reginald nodded. Although what he said made some sense, Marcus was not very satisfied with his answer. Although it was better to sell such valuable items as soon as possible, they could not earn money no matter what.


    The guests who came to the auction today must have their favorite items in their hearts. They might not have enough money on them. If such a rare item was suddenly released… perhaps the money of everyone present might not be enough to buy it.


    However, if the price was too low, Marcus did not want to sell it. After all, the auction house took a highmission for every item that was auctioned.


    At this moment, the little girl next to him raised her hand timidly. Marcus looked up and saw that it was an intern who had just graduated a few years ago and hade to work for him.


    “Say, what do you think?” It seemed that his tone was a little stiff. The little girl was startled by his words and quickly opened her mouth.


    “What I think is whether we can buy this thing first and leave it here until there is a suitable opportunity to sell it. Just make sure this little girl doesn’t tell anyone else.” Buy it first…?


    The tip of Marcus’ tongue touched the back of his teeth.


    “Thatdy just told me very clearly. What she wants, our auction house just happens to have it.


    “If possible, I suggest an equivalent exchange. Give what we have to her, and we can take full responsibility for this batch of medicine,” Reginald suggested.


    Marcus thought for a moment. “What does she want?”


    “The demonic core of the half-moon foxes.”
