Chapter 6
Kylie's POV
I stood behind the stage, peeking through the curtains to see hungry-looking men and women ready to buy themselves people, I felt utterly disgusted.
These men looked like they were in the 60s and above, it was obvious they were the godfathers, wealthy businessmen, politicians, and mafia in this town but thanks to men like this I have become wealthy.
My eyes searched around and there was no sign of any young man, I sighed but then I noticed Andre and some group of men in suits walked in, that was when I knew Jaylen was there.
"Our special guest is here, this is the first time Mr. Jaylen Noire Adryan has graced us with his presence," the auctioneer hype Jaylen, and people turned to see Jaylen.
The caller must really have power for this to be Jaylen's first time to show up here, I scoffed.
Some girls looked at him hungrily while some men looked at him with anger, anyway, I don't blame him, he did look fine as hell. Jaylen took the back seat while his bodyguards stood by his side, I couldn't really see him
"Now the man of the hour is here, let the auction begin!" The auctioneer announced and we were all brought out from behind the curtain in a single line.
I kicked my leg gently on the floor as I waited for my turn, the other girls were being auctioned at a low price, the highest auction so far was two million.
I wonder what the girls being auctioned are used for, well I might never know, but now I wonder what Jaylen might use me for.
Damn, I know I was being paid to do this but I do not want to be bought for the amount of money I spend in a day.
When it got to my turn I was placed at the very front, where all the hungry-looking men were.
"She is beautiful, so for her, we will go for 3 million," the bidder said and I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.
I noticed Andre was mouthing something to me but I couldn't understand so I paid attention and read his lips then I realized he was saying I should look more pitiful.
I should have hit his head but I lowered my gaze and looked pitiful.
"6 million, going!" The bidder announced, pointing at the bidder who had just made the bid.
Wow he started from 3 million now he is at 6 million, all these men sure looked hungry but I was more worried about Jaylen's silence because If he doesn't win me then I might actually be auctioned for real.
Just as I was about to give up hope and the deal was almost sealed, "120 million," A deep but calm voice said from behind with his number raised.
Everyone gasped and turned to look at who had made such a bid for a mere servant girl.
"120 million for a mere servant?
What jazz did she use?
She is beautiful but,
Isn't it too much?
He is the Jaylen but,
Spending such an amount on a servant?
I'm sure he just wants to show off his money,
She just became a Mafia prize," whispers from different parts of the hall flew around.
"120 million, going, going," the auctioneer announced, a proud smile gracing my face as I became Jaylen's dollar price doll.
The smile faded the moment I heard, "200 million," some random person raised his number with a smirk on his face from the other side of the hall, I guess this person was trying to challenge Jaylen but this wasn't the time for that.
"2…200 million! For a servant?" The auctioneer stuttered.
"700 million," the hall went silent as Jaylen raised his number, when I say jaw dropped, it did including mine.
"Going, going, Sold," the auctioneer hit the table and everyone clapped their hands, my eyes went to the other man who was challenging Jaylen earlier and he seems pissed, could he be the caller?
A smirk appeared on my face as Mr Jaylen fell for my trap and I became his prized possession.
The moment the auction was sealed, some of Jaylen's men came in with a briefcase and handed it to the auctioneer.
"Boss is paying cash," one of the hot bodyguards gave the cash to the Auctioneer.
Wow, who the fuck pays 700 million in cash, Jaylen of course.
"Let's go," the bodyguard ordered.
I felt like hitting him on the back of his head for ordering me but I nodded my head and smiled because I had no choice.
For the first time I was seeing Jaylen up close, Damn he was fucking fine, he is 6ft tall, his blue eyes were as bright as the clear sky, his jawline was sharp and from his suit, I could see a tattoo on his hand. Jaylen has a nice scent, a mix of wood, Vanilla, citrus, and a mix of cigarette and something like menthol mint, Jaylen's voice was rough and deep.
"Hey," I waved at Jaylen and he didn't glance my way, rather he just continued walking and I followed behind him and the other girls he paid for.
"That was a big deal Jaylen," the other guy that challenged Jaylen earlier hit his shoulder while laughing.
"Yes it was Vegas," Jaylen put his hands inside his trouser pocket.
Vegas was the same height as Jaylen and was as fine as Jaylen, Vegas' eyes were the color of emerald, and his voice was smooth and deep.
Damn does Jaylen have only hot people around him including the Vegas guy.
"For 700 million, is she that special?" Vegas looked at me from head to toe before licking his lower lip.
"She isn't special or anything, she is just like one of them," Jaylen said and I rolled my eyes.
"Okay, then will you send her when I need her?" Amusement in Vegas' voice as he tries to control the smile on his face.
"Okay, what's in for me?" Jaylen smirked.
I felt disgusted, I knew what they were saying wasn't something clean but I couldn't interfere.
"Let me have her first, anyway let's have wine together at your place," Vegas smiled.
"You are not welcome at my place," with a wave of the hands Jaylen walked away and the others followed.
I was about to walk away when Vegas said, "You must be a special one," Vegas winked and walked away.
Vegas challenged Jaylen, could Vegas be the caller, I don't even know what to do but I must find out and finish him off.
