NovelEnglishChapter 215 Layton furrowed his brows at the sight of the loving couple. He didn't expect Lily to be Lold's flance Loid seemed to hold much affection for her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInitially indifferent to such affairs, Layton now found himself drawn in-especially since it had to do with the Lauriers.
Layton had not wanted the Four Great Families of Bridgepost to have anything to do with the auction. Anyone with the means to bid for Redushil stood a chance at winning the coveted item. Hence, he specifically excluded the Four Great Families from security arrangements But now, faced with the revelation that Loid was romantically involved with the Weiss family's distinguished guest, Layton's resolve wavered. How could he deny them Redshil? "Mr. Weiss, don't worry," Loid interrupted Layton's internal struggle. His tone remained calm. "We'll adhere to the auction rules. Your concerns won't materialize." It took Layton a moment to get the hint Visibly relieved, he smiled. "Apologies for making a joke of myself." Loid replied politely, "Better safe than sorry. We can't risk disrupting Bridgeport's social dynamics over an auction, can we Caught by surprise, Layton managed a smile. "Right" After that, Loid left with Lily without further comments. Lold was left to stare at their backs, lost in his thoughts.
As Lold was a Laurier and Lily the recipient of Layton's gold invitation card, they were ushered into the most exclusive box in the auction hall-Box No. 1.
Loid received a call right as they took their seats. He rubbed his forehead after seeing the caller ID. He answered the call. "Grandpa." "Lold, I heard you and your Aunt Nora got into an argument at the auction. Did you exclude her from the auction?" Arthur took a sip of tea with a smile.

"I'm hanging up, Grandpa." Loid was about to hang up when Arthur stopped him. "Wait!" Arching a brow, Laid asked, "Anything else?" "Nothing much. It's just that..." Setting aside the teacup, Arthur struggled to find the right words. It took him a while to explain, "We're family friends with the Albetts. Could you speak to Lily and allow Nora and the others into the auction? I owe her a favor." Loid sighed. Having been aware of the purpose behind Arthur's call, he purposely skirted around the topic. However, he couldn't possibly ignore the request after Arthur brought it up.
Rubbing his temples in defeat, he asked Arthur, "Why don't you speak directly to Lily about this?" "Don't!" Arthur shot up from his seat in agitation. "I'm too ashamed to ask tily for the favor, especially knowing your Aunt Nora and her behavior. I can tell Lily is genuinely upset, and I can't bring myself to seek her forgiveness. Looks like your Aunt Nora will have to miss out."
Before Arthur could finish, Lily took the call from Lold and replied calmly, "Grandpa, you don't have to beg Blushing in embarrassment, Arthur replied, "Lily, sorry for the trouble" I'll let them into the auction."
"It's no trouble at all. Lily chatted briefly with him before ending the call. She then instructed the attendant by the door to inform Layton to admit Nora and her group
Soon, the attendant led Nora and the others into the venue. Nora and the ladies were arranged to sit in the last e box, when they passed by Box No. 1, Nora, Joanne, and Yolanda stole angry glances at Lily, each occupied by their thoughts. Lily glanced at them before looking away.
