The following day, Charlie ventured out to purchase several red sandalwood jewelry boxes, intending to use them for the life-saving pill he nned to distribute that evening. After all, this medicine was crucial for everyone, and it deserved attractive packaging.


    While heading home with the jewelry boxes, Charlie received an enthusiastic call from Isaac Cameron. As soon as they connected, Isaac eximed, “Master! The case involving the old house owner’s illegal fundraising was sentenced this morning!”


    “Oh?” Charlie responded eagerly, “What happened?”


    Isaac quickly exined, “The man received a life sentence, and all his assets have been seized to pay off the debts owed to the intiffs. This means that all properties under his name, including the old house you’ve been interested in, will now enter the judicial auction process.”


    “That’s fantastic!” Charlie eximed. “Isaac, make sure to register my name; I want to take part!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Isaac reassured him, saying, “Don’t worry, Master. I’ve already signed up as your driver. Since the house is connected to you and your parents, if your name appears on the bidder list, it might reveal your identity. I’ll handle it discreetly, so please don’t be upset!”


    Charlie sighed, feeling a mix of emotions. “I hadn’t thought about that. Go ahead and use your driver’s name to bid. We must secure that house.”


    Isaac chuckled, “Rest assured, Master. The old house is now ssified as a protected building, which means it cannot be demolished and has little market value. The starting bid is only 880,000. I doubt anyone willpete with you for it. Even if they do, the final price will likely be around two or three million, so you should win it without any issues.”


    “Sounds good,” Charlie replied, feeling more at ease. “When is the auction scheduled to start?”


    “It’s tentatively set for 10 AM next Monday,” Isaac informed him.


    Curious, Charlie asked, “Will I need to attend the auction in person, or can I participate online?”


    Isaac exined, “Judicial auctions are mostly conducted online these days to ensure transparency. I’ve already registered and paid the deposit, so I’ll be cing bids on the auction website at 10 AM next Monday.”


    “Great!” Charlie smiled, praising Isaac, “You’re doing an excellent job.”


    Isaac humbly replied, “Thank you, Master. It’s just a small task.”


    Charlie reflected, “While it may seem like a simple task for you, it means a great deal to me.”<fnd3f1> Read full story at Find★Novel</fnd3f1>


    He couldn’t help but feel a wave of mncholy wash over him. Even though his parents had passed away nearly twenty years ago, the pain still lingered every time he thought about them.


    Meanwhile, at the Thorne Family residence, Deana had also learned from the old housekeeper about the uing auction for Bruce’s old house.


    Excitedly, she told the old housekeeper, “Uncle White, please help me sign up! I want to take part in this auction!” The old housekeeper nodded, replying, “Of course, Second Lady. I’ll arrange for someone to assist you with the registration.”


    “Thank you, Uncle White. I really appreciate your help with this. I’ll head back to my room to make a call,” Deana said.


    “Absolutely, Second Lady,” the old housekeeper responded.


    Once in her room, Deana retrieved her mobile phone and called Zayne. She knew he had traveled to Australia, but she hadn’t been in touch with him for the past couple of days. Zayne, feeling down and disconnected, hadn’t reached out to Deana or their children either. At that moment, he was sitting at the vi’s entrance, gazing nkly at the sea below, lost in thought.
