Of course it would be great if he was a friend. If he was an enemy, he must find a way to get those shares back.
Otherwise, the shares in the hands of the shareholder would give the Lancaster Group a fatal blow at any time.
After thinking about it, Henry pinched his eyebrows impatiently.
At this time, Joe's phone rang suddenly.
He glanced at Henry. After Henry nodded slightly, he took out his mobile phone and answered the call.
A few minutes later, the call ended.
Henry glanced at him. "Who was that?"
Joe answered truthfully, "It's from the auction house. They said that there will be an auction of cultural relics in three days and they're asking if Mr. Lancaster would be interested."
Henry was about to say that he wasn't interested, but h e suddenly thought of something. His eyes flashed." Who will be invited to this auction?"
Joe thought about it and said, "I heard that these cultural relics were finally obtained from abroad. Generally, the lower middle class can't afford to get them. Those who are invited are the big shots, so the prestigious people in Vancouver should've been invited."
Henry tapped his fingers gently on the tabletop. “So, Shannon will attend too?"
"Huh?" Joe was dumbfounded, wondering why he mentioned Shannon out of sudden.
Joe asked tentatively, "Mr. Lancaster, will you go only i f Miss Smith is going?”
Henry didn't hide anything and generously admitted his thoughts.
Joe swallowed his saliva in disbelief. "Mr. Lancaster, you and Miss Smith..."
Henry frowned. "What?"
Joe gritted his teeth. "Do you like Miss Smith?"
Henry's expression showed that he was slightly stunned. The next moment, his eyes flashed and he returned to his senses. "No, I just want to confirm if she’s Yvonne."
"Really?" Joe didn’t believe it. "If you want to confirm whether she’s Yvonne or not, you can just wait until I get her information abroad. Is it necessary for you to confirm it yourself?"
"Alright!" Henry interrupted him impatiently. "You should find out if she'll attend the auction on that day."
"Okay!" Joe responded, and then picked up the mobile phone again to make a call to Yvonne's assistant.
In the car, when Lisa told Yvonne that the call was from Joe, Yvonne frowned slightly. "He won't take the initiative to make the call. It must be Henry who asked him to do it. Pick up the call and ask what's the matter."
"Okay." Lisa nodded her head slightly and answered the phone.
After a while, she put down her phone. "Joe is asking i f you'll be going to the auction in three days' time?"
"Auction?" Yvonne was a little confused. "What auction?"
Lisa replied, "It’s an auction for cultural relics.”
Specifically, she didn't know much.
"Cultural relics auction?" Yvonne touched her chin and pondered for a moment, then she suddenly remembered. "My brother mentioned that someone had seized a batch of domestic cultural relics from the foreign antique dealers. Is that the one?"
"Yes."
"I see. I didn't expect them to be auctioned in Vancouver, but why is Henry asking me about this?" Yvonne lowered her eyelids and her heart was full of conspiracy theories.
Lisa shook her head. "I’m not sure. Mr. Woods didn't say much. He was just asking if you’ll attend on that day. Miss Smith, will you be going?"
"Sure. Of course, I’ll go!" Yvonne narrowed her eyes." Since he asked, I should go then. I'd like to find out what Henry wants to do."
"Okay, I'll reply right away," Lisa smiled, nodded, and replied to Joe.
They arrived at the company ten minutes later.
As soon as Yvonne got out of the car, the front desk handed her an invitation card. When she opened it, it was an invitation to the auction.
It seemed that she had to go now!
The corner of Yvonne's mouth twitched. She closed the invitation card, handed it to Lisa behind her, and walked to the elevator.
