If she failed to win the pill at the auction, she could at least try negotiating with Charlie through their established friendship.
Besides, she wasn't worried about the possibility of revealing her true identity at the auction. Her identity as Kylie Jane was real. Moreover, the Jane family in France was a distant relative of the Fox family. She could accompany the head of the Fox family to the auction as a distant relative, which made sense.
She felt relieved at that thought. Deep in her heart, she began to fantasize.
She imagined her grandfather missing out on the Rejuvenating Pill at the auction. Just as he was grief-stricken, she managed to purchase a Rejuvenating Pill from Charlie and became a savior in her grandfather's eyes.
Her wild imagination left her with shame. However, this feeling quickly went away. She knew very well she could only turn the table around beautifully by relying on such an opportunity.
It would be hard to fight for power in the Fox family. I n fact, it was as difficult as fighting for the throne in a royal family. Her competitors would achieve their goal by any means.
About five minutes later, someone came knocking on
her door.
It was Julian. His voice came from behind the door as he spoke. "Miss, the car is ready.”
"Okay, I'll come right now."
Kathleen grabbed a limited-edition Hennas
Himalayan Kirkin in a black-and-white gradient that complemented her maxi dress.
She stood in front of the vanity mirror near the door and carefully observed how she looked in the mirror. She shook her head helplessly and thought to herself,' I shouldn't have worn this. Wearing this for dinner at a farmhouse restaurant makes me feel like a clown...’
She sighed softly and opened the door.
Julian stood outside, waiting for her. When he saw her, he greeted her respectfully. "Young Lady, we can leave immediately."
