My Waste Husband
Chapter 1213

Chapter 1213

The auction continued.

What happened during actioning the stone disk was perceived as an impulsive young man's attempt to offend the Lin Family. No one would have thought that it was the battle among the top organizations of the world.

Gardiner was sitting on the couch outside of the hall, enjoying his cigarette. He looked as if he was having a vacation.

"By the way," Henry sat across Gardiner and looked at Gardiner's satisfied face. Henry couldn't help but ask, "The cigarette you are sucking on, did you take them from my wife's restaurant?"

"Young man, why are you so narrow- minded?" Gardiner immediately scolded Henry, "We're talking about very important matters now. Why are you so focused on the trivials? As your senior, I'd say you are in need of a lecture!"

Henry rolled his eyes. He had seen a lot during the brief time he had spent with Ranjeet. Gardiner's behavior was nothing compared to Ranjeet's shamelessness.

Henry asked, "What are you going to do today? Taking it up directly in the downtown area?"

"Impossible," Gardiner shook his head, "The purpose of Section Nine is to maintain the stability of the society. We can't go to battle with Alvin League directly on the streets. Alvin League won't do that either, no matter how crazy they are. What we are going to do is counting on the ultimate strength of ordinary people. By the way, you need to control yourself in a while."

"The ultimate strength of ordinary people?" Henry was confused, but he soon understood, "You mean, we don't use Qi?"

"Yes," Gardiner stretched and said, "The ultimate strength under the Qi-controlling Realm, I think you should be familiar with the expression. Let's go. The auction should be over soon."

"To the backstage?" Henry asked. He was convinced that people from Alvin League would replace the real artifact with a counterfeit.

Gardiner shook his head, "The young girl who didn't get along with you took the stone disk on the spot. I'm afraid we have to be her bodyguards. A lesson won't be the only thing the young kid will get. There will be a scare as well. Haha."

Henry shrugged, "She dug her own grave. It's not like something I can help her with."

Gardiner suddenly looked at Henry with a puzzled look, "I am curious. How did you..."

"Stop," Henry made a gesture to stop Gardiner from speaking his questions, "I know you have investigated my past. For those things that you can't find, I won't tell you even if you ask."

"Haha, some of your experience in the past is really a mystery to us," Gardiner squinted, "In fact, a lot of people are curious. Where were you during the three months after you buried Immortal Lu?"

Henry kept silent.

Seeing Henry's reaction, Gardiner didn't keep pushing Henry. Gardiner had made his point.

"Let's go," Gardiner suddenly returned to his tongue-in-cheek demeanor, "Quickly, it's time to battle."

As soon as Gardiner finished his words, a burst of applause was heard from within the hall. Then, someone was reading thank- you notes. The auction was over.

Soon, the door of the hall was opened. Guests were exiting the hall.

Henry and Gardiner put their focus on Nadeen.

Nadeen held an exquisite gift box in her hands. What lying in the box was Alvin League's target, the third Medium that could open the Loulan inheritance.

Gardiner narrowed his eyes and said, "After we found out the relationship between Enkidu Inc. and Alvin League, we asked the government to pressure Enkidu Inc. to donate all the relics they discovered from the Loulan ruins. So Enkidu Inc. made this gimmick. Because you are here, we also have some extra time. Otherwise, I'm afraid Alvin League would have left with the stone disk already."

As Nadeen walking out of the hall, she immediately noticed Henry.

Realizing Henry's eyes were fixed on the box in her hands, Nadeen looked complacent. She waved the box to show off in front of Henry.

Gardiner shook his head and whispered to Henry, "If you were like her when you are younger, you would have died countless times."

"Haha," Henry chuckled, "After all, my enemies wouldn't have mercy on me."

"Alas," Gardiner sighed, "I envy those rich kids. They have everything handed to them on a silver platter. Not like us, we have to fight for everything we want."

Henry looked at Gardiner with surprise and said, "You complain a lot today."

"Haha," Gardiner laughed, "I just have a moody day. Let's go and have a chat with the young kid."

Gardiner took a deep breath and walked toward Nadeen, looking serious.

Standing in front of Nadeen, Gardiner stared at her solemnly. But He suddenly grinned and said, "How are you doing, beautiful..."

"Beat it," Nadeen threw Gardiner these words without even looking at him. She walked past Gardiner and toward the front door of the clubhouse.

Gardiner stood there motionlessly for a couple of seconds.

"I don't think she did anything wrong," Henry laughed, "You acted as if you are a jerk."

"A jerk?" Gardiner was confused.

Henry took a look inside of the hall. Most of the guests had left. Only Ranjeet was still eating and stuffing food into his pockets.

Henry patted Gardiner on the shoulder and said, "It's all right. Let's go."

"I feel that you just insulted me," Gardiner glared at Henry.

By the time they walked out of the clubhouse, it was already dark outside.

A Section Nine undercover officer walked up to Gardiner. He reported, "The target has left in her own car. Someone is tailing the target. Should we stop her?" "Don't rush," Gardiner lit a cigarette and said, "Alvin League should be the one that is in a hurry. We are cool. Let Alvin League people do the chasing. Well just follow them."

Finished his word, Gardiner just stood there and smoked. He was not in a hurry at all.

After ten minutes, Gardiner waved his hand. A Honda Accord stopped at the front door of the clubhouse.

"Let's go," Gardiner smiled at Henry, "We have already detected five groups of Alvin League people. Remember, you must control yourself."

On the main road of Yinzhou.

In a Mercedes-Benz SUV.

Nadeen felt relief from her anger, staring at the wooden box on the car seat. Just as Nadeen was enjoying the feeling, she felt something hit her car, and her body was jerked forward.
