Chapter 212
The security guard’s expression turned to shock when he saw the gold invitation card. He gasped. “The gold invitation card? M–May I know who you are?”
“Mr. Weiss delivered the gold invitation card to me. Do you need to check it Lily questioned calmly.
“I–It’s fine Please enter. Once your friends are done talking, 1 guide them to you.” The security guard accorded Lily the greatest respect.
Nodding at him, Lily then turned her gaze to Yolanda. She said to the guard, “May I request for this lady and her group to stay out of the auction this time?”
“Um..” The security guard appeared flustered
Lily added, “It’s fine. I won’t put you in a difficult spot. I’ll speak to Mr. Weiss-
The security guard quickly interjected, “Oh, it’s no problem at all. I’ll get them out of the hall right now.
Right after that, the guard gathered his colleagues and went up to Yolanda. “I’m sorry, miss. You’re prohibited from entering the hall. We shall rescind your invitation to the
auction.”
“What? Do you know who we are? How dare you kick us out?” shrieked Yolanda
At the same time, Nora’s and Joanne’s mouths tell to the floor. They could not believe that they were stopped by security at the auction entrance and threatened to be kicked out, especially when they were from the Albott family.
What a joke!
“My apologies, but I’m just carrying out orders. Please leave, or we might need to chase you out the guard warned them coldly.
Nora bellowed, “How dare you? Open your eyes wide and look carefully! We’re from the Albott family. How dare you throw us out? Does Mr. Weiss know about this?”
“Well.” The security was surprised to leam that they were the Albotts–one of the Hidden Families. He immediately appeared lost and confused.
Nora glowered at the poor guard. “You ignorant bastard. Get lost! With that, she shoved him aside and forced her way into the hall
The security guard was trapped between a rock and a hard place, but at the sight of Lily’s expressionless face, he came to a difficult decision and physically stopped Nora from entering “You shall not enter.”
Despite not wanting to offend anyone, the guard nonetheless prioritized Lily’s interests due to the fact that she owned a gold invitation card. The Weisses had only issued one gold invitation card for the auction.
Before departing for the hotel, Layton Weiss had specificallygathered the staff and reminded them to look out for the gold invitation card holder. They had to treat the holder with the utmost respect as she would be the family’s distinguished guest.
After a moment’s hesitation, the guard chose to comply with Lily’s instructions. He could not afford to slight the Albotts, but it would be even more unthinkable to disobey Layton Weiss after he had laid out the instructions regarding the gold invitation card holder.
“What did you just say?” Nora couldn’t believe that the security guard insisted on stopping her.
“The lady over here holds the gold invitation card that was personally issued by the head of the Weiss family. If she wishes to exclude you from the auction, we have no choice but to follow her directive-”
Before he could finish, Nora slapped him across the face.
Her voice dripped with anger. “Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me in that manner? What’s so special about a gold invitation card holder? Ask Mr. Weiss if he agrees with keeping us out.”
Furious yet helpless, the guard pressed a hand on his cheek. The Weisses, the Albotts, and Lily were people whom he could not afford to offend.
“What’s wrong? An imposing, assertive male voice echoed in the air.
Looking up, the guard recognized his employer. He politely greeted him, “Hi, Mr. Weiss,”
The man who showed up was the patriarch of the Weiss family, Layton Weiss.
