Chapter 5665
The rumors naturally did not reach Harvey York.
Then again, Roger Cobb and the others who were afraid of him immediately understood after hearing about it.
Garry Duncan and Ernie Surrey refrained from going against Harvey out of respect for the Higgs family.
Harvey only dared to flaunt his strength because he had an arranged marriage with Billie Higgs.
That said, he did not know that Asher Klein fancied Billie either.
Billie also seemed to have a thing for Asher. The two were seen constantly together recently.
With the Klein family’s authority, Harvey’s arranged marriage would be voided if Billie and Asher decided to get together.
After realizing that, many people ignored Harvey’s impressive fighting skills.
Many jealous people were quietly waiting for Harvey to make a joke out of himself.
After an entire night, Roger and Teo Fairman calmed down quite a bit.
Other than Roger’s family giving him and the others the confidence they needed…
They truly believed Harvey was only that impressive because of the Higgs family.
They figured if Billie ditched Harvey, they would get another chance to deal with him.
Harvey completely ignored these people. He figured he could not just play along.
He was thinking of visiting Aenar Temple when he got the chance.
His phone suddenly rang. It was from an unknown number.
Harvey casually picked up the call before Aria Surrey’s respectful voice was heard.
“Hello, Harvey!
“A small auction will be held in Aenar Temple tonight.
“Are you interested?”
Harvey stood frozen. Was this the chance he was waiting for?
“You may not know this, but the three great temples occasionally organize small-scaled auctions for everyone to get along.
“The antiques would often involve the outskirts as well!
“I heard that one of the Nine-Eyed Beads will show up.
“I’m sure you’ll be interested in that!
“That’s why I’m inviting you!”
Naturally, Aria only asked Harvey to come after mustering her courage for a long while.
Ernie also told her everything about what happened the day before.
Compared to the others, Aria quickly determined that Ernie kneeled before Harvey not because anyone supported him…
He was simply a mighty person from the very beginning.
“The beads made by the founder of a sect?
Harvey frowned.
‘Is it actually the Two-Eyed Bead?
‘Wasn’t it supposed to appear at Aenar Temple’s inauguration ceremony?
‘Or maybe it’s a different one showing up in the auction…’
“You must’ve heard of the Eyed Beads.
“They all represent different demands and wishes after being made generations later.
“That said, the original nine was made by none other than the founder of a sect.
“Legends said that whoever acquires all nine will be forever blessed and gain everlasting life.
“But of course, this is all just speculation.”
Harvey looked serious.
“What did you just say…?!” he muttered.
Aria froze.
“I said that the beads can provide everlasting life…”
