Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 1466

"Today is the fifth night of Oriental Bay Hotel’ s 'Carnival City'. Every day, we racked our brains to bring to you different activities that allow you to experience all carnivals there are, just so we can welcome the new year in the most relaxed and beautiful state after a year's hard work. Today, as the end of the year approaches, we bring you a unique surprise..." On the stage, the host didn't stop talking. Under the stage, the waiters shuttled back and forth in an orderly manner, distributing round number plates of the hotel. As she had thought they would take part in a lottery event, Waverly was excited.

"Ah... I haven't gotten one!"

Why did he leave her out? Did she not exist at all?

When the young man saw the beautiful girl tugging at his sleeve, he turned around, his voice softening. "Miss, there is a rule mentioning that the number plates are exclusively for men!"

After all, they understood the story behind the event well, so the waiter didn't explain much. He had wanted to distribute the number plates to all single men present, but many entered the hall with female companions, so it was difficult to distinguish between the two. In the end, the staff decided to distribute all the number plates to all men present.

What?

Was it discrimination towards women?

As soon as Waverly pursed her lips in displeasure, there came a voice that caused her jaw to drop. "We' re going to auction a special item tonight, that is...a 19-year-old's... first night!”

The crowd burst into an uproar. Waverly could not believe her ears. Had she time-traveled, or was she hallucinating?

"Perhaps you might find this auction weird, or you might not understand. Perhaps the ladies present might not feel comfortable, but please don't overthink. Our hotel will not profit from this auction. It's purely due to the client's request and sympathy that we offer this opportunity! The gentlemen here shouldn’ t have any improper thoughts either. The number plate is an invitation extended to single and unmarried men. As we don't have a clear understanding of your situation, we distributed one to every man present. If you're going to participate, then be prepared. As for ladies, if you don't feel comfortable, you can head up to the second tea hall where delicacies are ceremoniously prepared for everyone..."

Following next, Waverly didn't know whether to sympathize with or pity the girl after learning about her story.

From the host, she learned that the first woman auctioned was known by the name 'Nameless'. It was a code name. The reason why she was called 'Nameless' was probably her unbearable attempt to protect her privacy or save some trouble! Not knowing whether it was true or false, it was an old- fashioned story. In short, it was nothing more than Miss 'Nameless', who was born into a noble family and was educated, had an excellent character and an outstanding appearance. Unfortunately, her mother ran into a car accident, but the culprit escaped. After spending all their money on providing treatment for her mother, she was diagnosed with cancer. To relieve the overwhelming financial burden, her father resorted to borrowing money from loan sharks and fled with the subsidy they had received from others. Hunted down by the loan sharks and rebuked by the public, she was refused help from charitable organizations. In short, there was this girl who had just reached adulthood suffering all kinds of misery. The sick mother had wanted to commit suicide so as not for her daughter to be encumbered by debt, but it didn't work. The girl had no choice but to come up with such an idea.

"At this point, I'm sure everyone has a general understanding of her situation. This is the only thing this poor girl named ‘Nameless’ can offer. She thinks she's worth a lot more money, so this auction is nothing more than a ceremony. In short, she hopes to have someone kind enough to lend her a helping hand! Everything we've just described is true, and we have the verification of hospitals.

Since it is an auction, we have a certain authoritative notary! After the auction, all the information can be verified! As for why she chooses this way instead of asking for a subsidy, Miss 'Nameless' is honest in telling us that she doesn’t want to owe others a favor and not be criticized for making up lies. The cost of surgery and the debt to the loan sharks add up to about 400,000 dollars. That is why Miss 'Nameless’ requested us to auction her at the starting price of 400,000 dollars. If the price of the auction is less than 400,000 dollars, everything is meaningless for her..."

On the stage, the host spoke emotionally and tearfully. Under the stage, some ladies had begun to shift their stance. Initially wanting to donate some money, Waverly gave up the idea after listening to the host's words. She felt that the affair seemed to have nothing to do with her, so she turned to return to the stall to claim her crystal ball by dragging Wyatt to the barstool.

Putting the crystal ball aside, she remembered the bitter and amused expression of the staff. Giggling, Waverly's depressed mood subsided.

"Hee hee."
