Hearing that they were going to an auction, Selena became rather excited. "I want to go too."
She had attended auctions several times. There were a lot of items being auctioned off, but the prices were just way beyond her budget.
Although she couldn't buy anything, it was fun to see different things.
Just as Everleigh was about to refuse, Ysabelle said, "If you want to follow us, go and change then. Remember to wear an evening gown."
"Ysabelle..." Everleigh asked worriedly. She was concerned that she was bringing too many people along.
Ysabelle understood her concerns. Despite this, she had heard about Selena before. She was an artist, so events like that were definitely suitable for her.
Moreover, she was from the Trevino family. If Ysabelle was to refuse, others would think that the Meyer family was selfish.
Selena felt a little awkward. She was so excited that she had forgotten who was the one being invited.
Abraham felt that it was a little inappropriate as well. Everleigh was considered a member of the Meyer family, so it was understandable for her to go. However, Selena wasn't. If she went with them, people would gossip about it.
Ysabelle could sense their thoughts, so she chuckled, "This auction is open to the public and anyone can attend it. In other words, the organizers want to gain popularity. They will be happier if more people show up. Don't worry, as long as it's not a closed event, anyone can go."
"Alright then, let me get changed." Selena was delighted to hear that. She got up and went straight to her room to change.
Abraham sighed, "I've really spoiled her."
"It's normal for girls to be like that, Mr. Trevino. There's nothing to be embarrassed about," Ysabelle piped up.
Selena was fast-moving. A few minutes later, she came out of her room, dressed in a light green evening gown.
Ysabelle was rather impressed. She had to admit that artists had strong and elegant auras.
When the three of them arrived at the venue of the auction, everyone looked at them. One was wearing a black evening gown, giving off a strong aura. The other was dressed in a multi-colored evening dress, looking pure and gentle. The third one wore a light green evening dress, looking graceful and elegant.
When the three of them walked in, everyone was talking about them.
"Which family are these three ladies from?"
"I don't know, but they're all gorgeous."
"Yeah, let's find out later."
Ysabelle was used to such occasions, so she led the two sisters into the hall.
The ambience inside wasn't dark, but it looked more like a banquet hall instead. A plethora of delicious dishes were served.
"Isn't it supposed to be a formal occasion?" Selena whispered.
The corners of Ysabelle's lips curled up as she explained, "It's because this is an open auction, so everyone attending is either rich or noble. They have to serve the guests well. Otherwise, who would want to come again?"
Selena finally understood. Sure enough, her experience was a little limited, and there were many things that she didn't know.
Everleigh, on the other hand, remained calm. She looked around as Theodore had mentioned before that Wilson would be there. She was trying to spot
him.
"Who are you looking for?" Ysabelle noticed that she had been looking around since they entered the hall, as if she was looking for someone.
"I'm looking for Wilson Godfrey. I heard that he is attending too." As soon as Everleigh finished speaking, she spotted Wilson talking with a few other people in a corner.
Ysabelle looked over, and saw that the person standing next to him was one of the organizers of the auction.
Her gaze dimmed as she immediately understood what was going on.
"It doesn't matter. You're representing the Meyer family now, so you don't have to worry about anyone else." Ysabelle had heard about Everleigh's story from Felicia.
