Betrayed I Upgraded to His Billionaire Brother novel Chapter 106

Chapter 106

“Oh my god, someone just went all–in!”

In auction terms, that meant they’d pay any price to win.

“Who is it?”

“You don’t recognize him? Think about it–who else in New York would dare publicly challenge Mr. Grayson for a bid!”

”

Hearing the whispers, I turned and saw him. Gavin, in a custom black suit, one hand in his pocket, walking over like he owned the place.

Staff trailed behind him carefully, not daring to guide him, just waiting to see where he’d choose to sit.

Everyone in the American business world knew Gavin Windsor.

Seeing him walk straight toward our section, I slowly looked away. I heard Zane give a light, tense laugh. “You won’t even give me that much face?”

Zane knew Gavin, as my brother, had every reason to be pissed at him for marrying me while being in love with someone else.

But this was more than just being pissed. He wasn’t even pretending to play nice in public anymore.

Gavin calmly unbuttoned his suit jacket. “It’s not about face. Someone likes it. If I don’t win it for her, I won’t hear the end of it.”

The crowd was shocked, whispers erupting everywhere.

“Oh my god, he’s so handsome! Who said he was a devil? Look how devoted he is–I love it!”

“Don’t be fooled by what you see. You haven’t seen him when he’s ruthless. Who in New York isn’t terrified of him?”

“Who do you think he’s bidding for? He sounds so doting. His secretary? I heard her father is still recovering from a serious illness…”

Amid the chaos, I quietly stood up. I had no intention of staying for this farce.

The banquet hall had a buffet, but with everyone at the auction, it was empty outside.

I ate a piece of cake and drank half a glass of juice, planning to slip out early.

But before I could even set the glass down, I knew something was wrong.

My body felt… off. Heavy. My thoughts starting to blur.

My instincts screamed–I’d been druged.

At a high–profile New York auction, no one would take such a risk unless they were targeting someone specific.

And that someone was me.

I immediately pulled a thin acupuncture needle from my clutch. Forcing my mind to focus, I quickly walked toward the elevators.

I didn’t know who did it, but I knew I had to get out. Now.

“Miss…?”

I vaguely heard Neil’s voice as I passed the restrooms, but I didn’t stop. I couldn’t.
