Chapter 142 The Final Auction

"There are only two items up for auction tonight, the Star of Alpet and the Power of Heart. Both will likely start at over 2 million dollars," Matthew said, his tone serious. He knew Clara was here for the Power of Heart, but what he couldn't grasp was why she was so determined to get it. Recently, things hadn't been peaceful, and Matthew didn't want Clara taking unnecessary risks, but he knew he couldn't control her decisions. Clara was a woman of secrets, many secrets. He probably only knew a tenth of them, if that. The more time passed, the less he seemed to understand her. "Don't worry. I wouldn't have come here without being fully prepared." Clara glanced at her phone, her anxiety growing as she checked the time. Finally, evening fell, and it was time for the final auction, with just two items up for sale. Since fewer than ten people were attending this last event, the organizers changed the venue. Clara, as usual, chose a spot in the corner, waiting for the host to enter.
