“They are going too far. That invitation is useless to them. They’re clearly going against you.”
Andrew frowned, feeling indignant for Melody.

He knew how much Melody had prepared for the financial summit, yet she failed to secure an invitation. How disappointed. she must bet
Melody, however, smirked and put on a self–deprecating smile. “You think this is too much? I’m already used to it.”
She had endured far more outrageous things than this.
Everyone in the Shield family used Suzanna’s heart condition as an excuse and demanded that she give in.
If she refused to, they would accuse her of being arrogant and jealous of Suzanna and that she was unworthy of being a daughter of the Shield family.
A hint of grievance flashed across Andrew’s eyes.
Martin, if you don’t wake up soon, your sister will be bullied miserably by the Shields.
He sent out a message on his phone. Initially, he didn’t intend to use his influence, but with the message sent, he effortlessly obtained an invitation to the summit.
He stared at Melody for a moment and sighed. Oh well, since Martin is still bedridden, Fi reluctantly protect his little sister for now.
As the auction continued, Melody had no desire to bid on anything again.
Nevertheless, she was interested in seeing who would be the one successfully bidding on the other portable electrotherapy device designed by Master Jose.
“Don’t worry, Professor Woodman. Even without an invitation, I will find a way to sneak into the summit. I’ll never let YM Capital fall.”
Not only was Andrew Martin’s connection, but he was also her business partner.
She had to reassure Andrew and solidify their future cooperation.
The refined and knowledgeable Andrew was tongue–tied, thinking it was indecorous to sneak into the summit.
However, he could give extra credits to the postgraduate students in the department, and many people would be willing to cover for Melody.
“The next item for auction, created by Master Jose, is a portable electrotherapy device named the ‘lonic Rehab, of which there are only two devices manufactured globally. The starting price is eight hundred thousand!”
With the appearance of this item, everyone’s eyes lit up.
Master Jose was not only a master in designing medical equipment, but he also excelled in mechanical crafting.
While designing the device, Master Jose also documented some special treatment techniques that could only be performed through the device.
His portable electrotherapy device was so masterfully designed that it was the equipment most desired by all physiotherapists.
Master Jose was a legend. Any mechanical item with his name engraved on it could fetch a sky–high price at auction.
Melody looked at the device on the auction stage. Her love for this item made her eyes flicker with desire once again.
When the price reached one and a half million, Melody raised her paddle. “One million six hundred thousand.”

Chapter 27 She Wants Everything
To cure Edward’s leg, she had to take a risk!
As she spoke, Carson and Suzanna’s attention was once again drawn toward her.
But this time, Suzanna didn’t act rashly.
She had just snatched the invitation that Melody needed. If she were to persuade Carson to bid on the medical equipment that was useless to her, her ill intent would become obvious,
Standing in the dark corner of the venue. Gary couldn’t help but look at Melody.
Then, he obtained a paddle from the staff and went to sit beside Suzanna.
Master Jose’s equipment was of extremely high collection value. Right after Melody declared her bid price, the price continued soaring.
Gary raised his paddle. Three million.”
Suzanna gazed at Gary in disbelief. She held his wrist and smiled sweetly, “Gary, how did you know that I’m interested in this set? You’re so thoughtful”
As usual, she acted coquettishly. In the past, Gary would spoil Suzanna by giving her whatever gifts she wanted. But this time, Gary’s gaze at Suzanna turned cold
He pulled his arm away and questioned in a chilly tone, doy
“I didn’t say I’m bidding for you.”
“Why always want everything?”
Suzanna stiffly withdrew her hand. With reddened eyes, she bit her lips and muttered timidly, “I’m sorry, Gary, I didn’t realize it wasn’t meant for me…
“I just find this device very special, and I like it a lot.”
“It’s fine. I… I don’t need it.”
Suzanna’s nose turned red, and she turned toward Carson with a pitiful look.
