Entering the living area, Damien and William met with Katherine again. But before she could speak, Frederick came down the stairs.
"Dad," William greeted, and all he got from his father was a grunt then the latter turned to the couple and said, "You're here. Welcome back, and Congratulations!"
Damien and Katherine glanced at each other, both wondering what Fredrick was congratulating them about. If it's because of the bidding, that would be understandable. But if it's about their engagement, then, was he a psychic? Damien met his uncle halfway, receiving the side hug as he questioned, "You've seen the results regarding the bidding? I didn't know you were keeping tabs on that."
"Right. Of course. You're my nephew, after all." Frederick cleared his throat, then he asked, "May I have a word with you, Damien?"
