Vivian was so shocked. Who would have thought that things worked that way?

"Stay here and keep watch. I need to go and receive an important guest who wants to use the private room," the captain of the security guards said to his subordinates after receiving a phone call.

Vivian who wasn't far away, heard what the man said and started to wonder who he could be talking about.

If the powerful captain of the security guards needed to go personally and welcome this guest, then it had to be a really important personality.

Unfortunately, she didn't have the guts to ask about it and satisfy her curiosity. Not after what happened to Colden moments ago.

Meanwhile, the captain was already walking towards the other entrance, where the important guest had already been waiting for him.

Not Long after, he saw three people standing at the entrance of the VIP passage.

“Greetings. Miss Jenkins?" he asked in his gruff voice. He was so intimidating that Grover got a Little nervous.

He was only a Little bit weaker than the captain, and the captain could feel that.

They seemed to pull each other in, and in less that a second, both men were looking at each other. They dropped their guards and only felt respect for the other person.

Grover understood why he was the professional captain of security guards on the Pill Alchemist Association, while the captain understood why the boss told him to specially welcome the distinguished guests.

Both Grover and the captain admired each other just after one glance at each other.

“That would be me," Maria said. "I hope it's no trouble if they come with me."

“Of course not, Miss Jenkins. You are Mr. Gregory's distinguished guest. Room 1 is all prepped up for you. You can come with as many people as you want. And if the private room is too small for the three of you or maybe you don’t wanna share, I can also get private rooms for each of your servants."

Grover felt like he was being pranked at this point. One word from Mr. Gregory and they each would have a private room for themselves?

He thought the private rooms here were highly exclusive!

And Mr. Gregory.. that name sounded familiar. No, wait a second! That Mr. Gregory? Grover thought to himself.

Could it really be the same Mr. Gregory that they just left rocking and yawning in a chair in front of the old medicine warehouse?

Or maybe it was just another man that just happened to have the same surname as the Mr. Gregory?

“I believe that one private room will be enough," Maria said with a small smile.

This was obviously not Maria's first time to the auction, nor her first time using the private rooms of the auction.

The captain nodded and led them to the room.

When they got there, Isla couldn't believe her eyes.

After serving old Mrs. Jenkins all year round, she always thought that the old lady's bedroom was the most lavish and beautiful place in the world; that was until she saw this private room.
