Zayn, momentarily caught off guard, quickly recovered, raising his gavel to ask, "Do we have a higher bid than one billion?" Silence enveloped the room. Zayn continued, "One billion going once!

A man with graying hair and a serious expression entered, carrying a tray that prominently displayed a black gold card.
The shock was evident not only on Zayn's face on stage but also among the seated mid-level members. A whisper swept through the crowd.
"Is that a black gold card?" As the question hung in the air, a wave of disbelief swept over the attendees.
The atmosphere in the room transformed instantly. The black gold card commanded attention, its intricate patterns interwoven with a perfect circle of flawless diamonds—a symbol of unmatched authority and influence.

She lifted her coffee cup, using the gesture to compose herself.
"You're a suprmember?"
"As the heiress of the Ford family's chosen one, how could I allow you to lose face?" Nate's leyes softened with affection as his lips curved into a tender smile.
A gentle laugh escaped Corrine's lips as she pondered the serendipity of finding such a perfectly matched companion. Nate's eyebrow arched playfully.
