The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1269

Soon, Gene himself appeared on the second floor landing.

His cheeks were flushed. He had a fine complexion, and he did not need help walking, not to mention that his back was sharply upright.

"Everyone, welcome to my charity auction. You may consider it a gesture of gratitude to all who showed concern while I was taken ill."

"Hehe." He chuckled as he headed downstairs. "So many have come to visit me, bringing all kinds of presents, which is why it occurred to me that we should just put together a charity auction.

"On one hand, we'd all be contributing to philanthropy, which is a good deed. On the other hand, I can hold an event where everyone can gather—who knows, new partnerships might be forged, and there's money to be made."

The hall applauded as Gene finished—the man could certainly give a speech.

Moreover, he gave the perfect excuse for everyone giving him gifts, making a killing while using the auction to announce his grand return.

Not only would he lose nothing, but he would also be improving his reputation—the richest man of the east coast certainly earned his title for his cunning.

Still, looking around the lobby, Gene sighed. "I was going to introduce my guardian angel to everyone, but it seems that he couldn't make it because he's busy. What a pity."

"Guardian angel?"

Everyone's heart skipped a beat.

Gene's guardian angel? Was he referring to the man who saved his life?
