Chapter 1039 No Entry Without An Invitation

Tons of wealthy and powerful individuals showed up at the auction. They gathered in the event hall andtalked about their desired items.

Each of them had to present a red invitation card to the security guards at the door. The securityguards would examine it thoroughly before letting them in.

That was when Alex realized he wouldn’t be able to enter the auction house as he did not have aninvitation card.

Just like that, Alex was denied entry despite being so close to obtaining the Blood Ganoderma.

“Could you let me see the person in charge of this auction? I need to speak to him!” Alex said in anattempt to negotiate with the security guard.

He didn’t want to give up on an opportunity to obtain the Blood Ganoderma. Since forcing his way inwasn’t an option, he had no choice but to see the person in charge instead.

The security guard eyed Alex from head to toe in disdain before shoving him back with his electricbaton.

“Who do you think you are? You’re not qualified to see our person in charge! Besides, the cheapestitem being auctioned costs at least ten million, so a guy like you couldn’t possibly afford the stuff inthere anyway! I doubt you even have five hundred on you! Nobody gets in without an invitation, soleave! Go on, get out of here!”

Alex felt speechless at the fact that he was being looked down on by a security guard again.

Suddenly, a man wearing a pink suit and huge sunglasses walked right past them with a sexy womanin his

arms.

He didn’t even present his invitation card to the security guard when he passed them by.

The security guard quickly ran forward to stop him, but the tone he used when speaking to the manwas incredibly polite.

“I’m sorry to bother you, Mr. Giorgio. Could you please present your invitation card?”

Giovanni took his sunglasses off and shot the security guard a displeased look as he shouted angrily, “Ileft my invitation card in the car. What’s the matter? Are you going to stop me from entering simplybecause I don’t have it with me? I could have you kicked out of Lumenopolis for this!”

The security guard instantly chickened out and said apologetically, “O-Of course not, Mr. Giorgio!Please head on in! I’m sorry for offending you! Please forgive me!”

Giovanni then eased up on his frown and put his sunglasses back on before waltzing into the auctionhouse with his woman.

Alex pointed at Giovanni and questioned the security guard, “Why did you let that guy in without aninvitation card?

“I’m surprised you have the audacity to compare yourself to Mr. Giorgio! He’s from the Giorgio family,which is one of the most powerful families in Lumenopolis! His identity alone is the equivalent of aninvitation card! What about you, huh? Who are you?” the security guard snapped at him in disdain.

“Who am I, you ask?” Alex couldn’t help but let out a chuckle. While he had never met Giovanni, hehadnovelbin

met the patriarch of the Giorgio family.

As the Jefferson family used to be at the top of Lumenopolis’ prominent families, the patriarch of theGiorgio family had often approached them in hopes of establishing a business relationship.

That was when a friendly-looking, white-haired elderly man walked up to Alex from behind and pattedhim on the shoulder.

“I told you to wait for me, didn’t I? You got out of the car in such a hurry that you forgot your invitationcard!” said the elderly man while handing Alex an invitation card.
