America: The neighbor's wife is so incredibly hospitable!

Just as Antonio was about to flash a victorious smile.

Chen An suddenly spoke up.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Louis."

"According to the auction rules, as a donor, I have the right to refuse certain buyers with...low credit ratings."

Chen An took out a prepared document from his pocket and waved it in front of the camera.

"This is the report I just received from the credit reporting agency."

"Three companies under Mr. Antonio's name had their accounts frozen by the bank last week due to suspected fraud and a broken capital chain."

"In other words..."

Chen An looked at Antonio, whose face had turned deathly pale.

"Is your eleven million just an empty promise?"

"If that's the case, then I can only declare this bid invalid."

"And I will give this gem to...Miss Eileen Wayne free of charge."

"This is as support for her charitable work."

boom.

The whole place erupted in chaos.

This is hardly an auction.

This is a public execution!

This is like peeling off Antonio's face, throwing it on the ground, and stomping on it!

"You...you're lying! I'm going to kill you!"

Antonio went crazy and tried to rush onto the stage.

But before he could move, he was pinned to the ground by several bodyguards in black standing nearby.

"This gentleman seems to have had too much to drink. Please ask him to go out and sober up."

Chen An waved his hand, as if shooing away a fly.

Antonio was dragged out like a dead dog, howling and cursing all the way.

But no one sympathized with him.

In the world of fame and fortune, losers deserve only to be forgotten.

Chen An turned around, picked up the box containing the gems, and walked up to Eileen.

"Now, it's yours."

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he personally placed the necklace on the actress's snow-white neck.

Green gemstones, golden hair, and a blue dress.

Absolutely stunning.

Eileen touched the necklace, her eyes shining brighter than jewels.

She knew that at this moment, she was not just a movie queen, but also the "spokesperson" for this man to demonstrate his strength to the world.

She tiptoed and placed a kiss on Chen An's lips.

"Thank you. This weighs more than an Oscar."

Below the stage, flashbulbs were going off like crazy.

Sarah and Jessica sat below, though a little jealous.

But they also clapped.

Because they know that the more dazzling the man is, the more secure they feel.

That night.

Titan Mining's "green flame" not only ignited Hollywood but also swept through the entire West Coast's elite circles.

After the auction ended.

The Beverly Wilshire Hotel did not fall silent after the banquet ended.

The situation became even more agitated because of the $11 million "green flame" and the mysterious Easterner who publicly humiliated the real estate tycoon.

All the media outlets are frantically digging into the story behind the name "Chen An".

But in the most luxurious royal suite corridor on the top floor of the hotel, it was so quiet that the only sound was the sound of high heels on the carpet.

"Boss, aren't you going back to your room tonight?"

Jessica stood at the door of her suite, holding the bag containing her outfit for tonight's performance.

There was a hint of resentment in his eyes, and a stubbornness that made him want to ask even though he already knew the answer.

Sarah stood beside her, having changed out of her tight dress and was now wearing a shawl.

She glanced at Eileen Wayne, who was leaning against another carved wooden door and smiling at Chen An not far away.

As someone who's been through it, Sarah understands that look all too well.

That's the look in the eyes of prey waiting for the hunter to come to them.

They possess both the desire to be conquered and the ambition to conquer the world by conquering men.

"Jessica, go back inside."

Sarah gently tugged at her daughter's hand. "Ann has more important 'business' to discuss tonight."

"That's a business acquisition for adults."

"Hmph... what merger? It's clearly a merger that ended up in bed together."

Jessica mumbled something, but still obediently opened the door.

Just before entering the door, she turned back and called out to Chen An:

"Remember to take me to Disneyland tomorrow!"

"If I can't go because my legs are too weak, then I'll... I'll tell your secret to the media!"

Chen An smiled and shook his head, watching them go inside.

Having appeased the "backyard," he turned and walked toward the half-closed door.

At the doorway, Hollywood actress Erin Wayne leaned against the doorframe.

Her golden curls had fallen loose, and the champagne glass in her hand swayed gently between her fingertips.

"Your family seems to be very strict?" Eileen teased. "That secretary looks like she wants to bite me."

"She's just not used to sharing yet."

Chen An walked over, took the wine glass from her hand, and drank it all in one gulp. "Besides, her bites really hurt."

"Yeah?"

Eileen's eyes were alluring as she reached out and traced circles on Chen An's chest with her nail-painted fingertips.

"And what about me? Do you want to know... if my bite hurts?"

She took a step back, making way for the entrance.

"Please come in, my big spender. Tonight's script only has two roles."

………………

inside the room.

The level of luxury here is in no way inferior to Chen An's presidential bungalow.

The presence of female celebrities adds an extra touch of sensuality to the area.

Flowers were everywhere, and the air was filled with haute couture fragrances.

That priceless "Green Flame" necklace.

It was still hanging around Eileen's neck.

But it was only worn around the neck.

Because when Eileen turned around to close the door, and then turned back around...

The gold strapless dress had already slipped smoothly onto the carpet like quicksand.

Under the lights.

Her snow-white, delicate skin, set against the backdrop of that deep green gemstone, created a breathtaking visual impact.

That's top-tier jewelry, paired with a top-tier beauty.

Do you like it?

Eileen made no attempt to conceal anything.

In Hollywood, the body is both capital and a weapon.

Tonight, this body is her offering to the new king.

"This stone... really suits you."

Chen An sat on the sofa, not rushing forward, but scrutinizing her with the eyes of someone appreciating a work of art.

"No. I meant...do you like me?"

Eileen strode over and straddled Chen An's lap.

She cupped Chen An's face in her hands.

His eyes revealed a hint of weariness after years of navigating the world of fame and fortune, and a sense of dependence on the strong.

"Chen, do you know? In Hollywood, even if you win an Oscar, even if you're a heartthrob, it's not all the same."

"...But in the eyes of those financial tycoons, she's still just a slightly more sophisticated actor."

"Just like Antonio from earlier."

"He dared to bid against me in public, dared to look at me like that..."

"It's because he thinks he's rich and can ruin me anytime."

Eileen's voice trembled slightly.

"But you're different."

"You trample him under your feet, like crushing an ant."

"At that moment... I was speechless."

She breathed sweetly into Chen An's ear, her words so direct they were outrageous.

"I don't want to be a movie queen anymore."

"Tonight, I want to be your...pet. Or, your personal canary."
