NovelBookChapter 1321 The Wrays Have Lost Kenton had never looked so chagrined. Worst of all, he had walked straight into the trap right in front of Lucius.
He was convinced that Lucius must have picked up on shints, or else he wouldn't have shot a meaningful glance at the silver coins while sipping his tea.
Kenton clenched his fists tightly. Whether due to Wynter's tactic or Reuben's scheme, he had clearly made a fool of himself. It was the first the had made such a blunder in front of his investors.

Immediately, Kenton whipped his head toward the proscenium stage. Since the auction items were stored in a box, no one knew the contents until they were taken out. Upon seeing the fourth auction item presented, Kenton felt the color drain from his face.
While the Chamber of Commerce's rules were set annually, sminor adjustments would be made. That said, Kenton decided to entrust everything to Serenity Hotel. Confident of his victory, he didn't bother to research the auction details.
In the past two years, Kenton had heard persistent rumors questioning his usurpation and worthiness for the position. Even if he did becthe Chamber of Commerce's chairman, it would be hard to quell the rumors.

Samiyah, who had been observing Kenton through the surveillance camera, reported diligently, "Mr. Wray looks angry, Boss. It seems like he's dissatisfied with how we've organized the auction." Gail glanced up from his gand asked, "What were his requirements?" "To demonstrate there are no internal referrals within the Chamber of Commerce and emphasize the Wray family hasn't sold any quota. Everything remains fair and transparent," Samiyah answered.
Setting aside his gconsole, Gail stated with a smirk, "Then we've met his requirements, haven't we? The Wray family may have earned their fame, but we're always ready to offer s'after-sale service' if they dare to challenge the hotel.

However, Kenton had been preoccupied with strategizing his next move to confront Serenity Hotel. He anxiously wondered about the fifth auction item, especially since the fourth one was a phone.
Following the pattern, it seemed likely that the fifth auction item would be more valuable and worth bidding on.
Even if Kenton wished to compete with the Quinnell family, he was m y sharton V. coins.
Kenton was completely at a loss, unsure of what would cnext.
But for Wynter, it was just the beginning. With a confident smirk, she raised a bid paddle and offered four silver coinse Yvette didn't follow her actions immediately but shot an anxious glance at Kenton.
