“The finest oriental jade.”
The host walked up to the iron cage.
“Unpolished, amazing plasticity.”
The men in suits were rubbing their fingertips on the bidding cards, their eyes shamelessly wandering over her.
The host raised his hand, and the assistant handed over a tray with a physical examination report on it.
“The special maintenance record is complete…”
“Five hundred thousand!”
“Eight hundred thousand!”
“One million!”
No sooner had the words fallen, than sporadic bids were heard from the audience.
Andrea was shaking all over, she held back the chaos in her heart, turned to the host, her voice trembling and urgent.
“I accidentally walked in, I’m not even part of this auction!”
“You look at that inspection report, the information on it is completely different from mine!“,
The host gave her a skeptical look, then glanced at the medical report.

His brows furrowed suddenly, obviously realizing that the information in the report did not match Andrea’s.
However, when he scanned the reactions of the audience below, he had a different plan in mind.
The people in the audience were either rich or wealthy, and the unexpected girl who appeared in front of them might be able to fetch an even higher price.
So, the host had a knowing smile on his face.
He casually tossed the physical examination report back onto the tray, saying flippantly.
“It seems this piece of jade from the East hasn’t figured out its identity yet.”
He lowered his voice, giving a creepy warning.
“Since you’re already on stage, stop struggling in vain.”
Andrea widened her eyes and shouted hoarsely.
“You can’t do this! It’s illegal!”
“You bunch of heartless animals! Treating people like commodities for auction, do you even have any humanity left!”
Her voice echoed in the auction house, sharp and piercing.
The atmosphere in the audience suddenly became tense.
The host, however, remained calm and composed, with a fake smile still on his face.
“This piece of jade from the East, turns out to be a rose with thorns.”

“This natural wildness is the most precious, if you can tame it, it will definitely bring more joy and a sense of accomplishment.”
His words were like pouring gasoline on a fire that was already burning.
Desires are even stronger in the eyes of the audience.
“One million five hundred thousand!”
“Two million!”
“Three million!”
Andrea’s despair reached its peak.
She didn’t want to be pushed around like that.
So, while everyone was focused on bidding, she suddenly rushed out of the iron cage.
Unexpectedly, she hadn’t run a few steps when she was stopped by several burly bodyguards.
She struggled desperately, kicking and biting, but her resistance was futile in the face of overwhelming force.
The bodyguards rudely dragged her back to the iron cage, “clang,” the cage was locked heavily.
Andrea sat paralyzed in the iron cage, tears streaming down her face.
“You animals, deserve to die a horrible death!”
She didn’t expect that her reaction would actually excite the audience
even more.
The bidding got more intense, the price kept going up, from 3.5

million to 4 million, and then to 5 million.
“Five million, sold!”
As the hammer fell, Andrea completely became a “commodity” in the hands of these demons.
Soon, she was roughly lifted out of the iron cage by someone.
And waiting for her, will be a darker and unknown fate.
