“Wait!” Tristan hurriedly grabbed the arm of Callum, who had been his best friend since they were children.

Despite feeling aggrieved, he said truthfully, “Dont underestimate that punk.

He has extremely good combat skills.

Previously, he sent two of my personal bodyguards flying several meters away with a single kick, and they couldnt get back up on their feet for a long time.

If not because of that, I wouldnt have suffered such a great loss.

Callum, dont mistake him for a weakling!”

“Huh Is that punk really that impressive”

The muscular Callum was skeptical about it because Lucas was much leaner than him, so he doubted Tristans claim that Lucas managed to kick Tristans bodyguards several meters away and render them immobile.

The bodyguards hired by top families like theirs were not incompetent weaklings but experts hired from professional bodyguard agencies at hefty prices!

Of course, Callum was still mostly surprised and didnt suspect that Tristan was deliberately putting him down by making Lucas seem impressive.

In that case, it seemed that Lucas Gray was indeed not a simple person!

“Heh, I can make him get lost from here obediently without having to get physical with him!” Elijah sneered and then walked toward Lucas and the others with him.

Since Bruce was an esteemed and prestigious figure, there were naturally many people who kept approaching him to try and strike up a conversation with him.

Irked by the hypocrisy of the strangers, Lucas couldnt be bothered to entertain them and went straight to a relatively quiet place with fewer people.

Lena naturally followed Lucas.

As soon as they sat down, Elijah walked up to the two of them, pointed at Lucas, and hollered, “I saw you forcing your way in at the entrance without an invitation just now! Youre just the live-in son-in-law of an insignificant family who sponges off of your wife.

Youre not qualified to sit here at all! Tell me, how exactly did you manage to sneak in”

Elijahs voice was extremely loud and clear, and his tone was aggressive as well, thus immediately attracting the attention of many people in the auction hall.

Due to the special nature of the auction held in Club Splendor today, the invited guests were mostly from wealthy top families of various big cities.

Even those who came from slightly inferior families wouldnt receive an invitation at all, let alone the live-in son-in-law of a small family of Orange County.

Many of them frowned in disdain, especially after seeing the clothes Lucas, whom Elijah was pointing at, was wearing.

All the scions and members of wealthy families present at the auction were clad in designer suits worth at least tens of thousands of dollars each.

And they paired them with exorbitantly priced luxury watches to flaunt their wealth and status.

But Lucas was wearing a simple and casual outfit, which was obviously made with cheap fabric and poor workmanship, in their opinion.

They thought that Elijahs accusations were definitely right and that Lucas had to be someone of a lowly status who had somehow managed to sneak into the auction hall.

Many of them had clear displeasure in their eyes.

All of them were of noble status, yet they had to breathe the same air and be on an equal footing at the auction with a penniless man who had somehow sneaked in.

This made many of them who had a sense of superiority feel extremely offended.

Seeing that Lucas had almost become the public enemy of the audience because of his words, Elijah was naturally extremely smug and was just waiting for the Kingstons, who were the organizers of the auction, to kick Lucas out when they found him to be an eyesore.

But Lena was enraged.

She sprung up from her seat to stand in front of Lucas and glowered at Elijah.

“Its stated clearly on the invitation card that every invited guest is entitled to bring two more guests with them! Hes my guest.

Is that not allowed”

Many people frowned.

There was indeed such a clause stated on the invitation cards.

But due to the limited number of invitations, each family would basically receive only one invitation card.

But it would seem a little too strict if only one other member from each family was allowed to attend the auction.

But if there was no limit on the number of extra guests, the auction would be too crowded.

So the organizers had decided to settle on this rule.

Elijah sneered and said confidently, “Of course Im aware of that clause, but it comes with a restriction.

In order to avoid making the auction seem low-class and prevent just any Tom, Dick, and Harry from entering, the organizers deliberately specified that the invited guests could only bring members of their own family or a non-family individual whose personal assets exceed fifteen million dollars!”

“Miss Lena Sawyer, this person is obviously not a Sawyer but a live-in son-in-law of a third-rate family that has been on the verge of collapse several times.

Therefore, he doesnt meet the criteria to be your guest.

Even though youre the daughter of the richest man in Orange County, youre not allowed to bring him in!”

After hearing what Elijah said, many seemed to come to a sudden realization and began to look at Lucas gloatingly with greater contempt, while Lena bit her lower lip tightly with a sullen expression.

Elijah wasnt making things up because there was indeed such a restriction.

Moreover, if Lucas was really just the live-in son-in-law of a lowly family that had been on the verge of bankruptcy several times, it would indeed be impossible for him to own assets worth fifteen million dollars, much less have the right to be here!

At this moment, Lucas suddenly chuckled.

“Are you that certain that I dont have fifteen million dollars”

From the moment Elijah came over to confront and accuse him, Lucas had been keeping a straight face and remaining seated as if he was not the person Elijah was trying to chase out.

He was acting as though the matter didnt concern him at all.

At this moment, he finally spoke.

In everyone elses opinion, Lucas was being overly composed, and some even began to speculate whether he had some unexpected trump cards that gave him such confidence.

Of course, there were also some who felt that he was putting up a pretense.

Elijah glanced at Lucas in disdain and said derogatorily, “Do you think were talking about monopoly money here Even many descendants of top families cant afford to take out so much money!

“Youre just the son-in-law of a family thats about to face bankruptcy.

Oh, I heard that youve even been kicked out, so you cant rely on them anymore.

If you can prove that you have fifteen million dollars, Ill give you my head!

“Also, youre just a lowly and penniless person.

What is your motive for trying so hard to force your way into this auction The organizers of the auction should do a thorough investigation on this punk and make sure he doesnt sneak around to cause trouble!”

After saying this loudly, Elijah glanced at Lucas provocatively with eyes full of malice.
