Severin did not know how to react when he saw those two women teasing each other.

On the other hand, Felicia was all smiles. Elsa was a beautiful woman who had high attainment and worked as the senior director of the auction house. Should she resign, she would retain many connections in Dracodom. Severin had every reason to be proud of having her as an apprentice. Besides, feelings might develop between them with time, and it was even better to have someone as influential as her join the family.

Severin looked at Felicia's smile and felt goosebumps. 'Does she have to be so happy that I took in an apprentice?'

"Please allow me to bow down to you! Am I supposed to kneel and kowtow or something? I don't really understand all these ceremonies and procedures," Elsa said to Severin with an awkward smile. Severin smiled wryly. "Don't worry about all that. Just drop by South Link City and look for me when you're done with your work. Tell the guards that you're my apprentice, and they'll let you in. I'll give them a heads up when I return."

Elsa nodded in acknowledgment and took out her cell phone. "Shall we exchange our contact information then?"

Severin smiled and left his contact information with Elsa. He and his family then prepared to leave when a young man dressed in white walked over with a smile.

"Elsa!" The young man seemed to be very familiar with Elsa.

When he came in, he happened to see Severin talking and laughing with Elsa. In particular, he saw that Severin had handed Elsa's phone back to her. His expression soured in an instant, and he said to Elsa, "Who is he?"

The young man's tone was rather impolite, and he looked at Severin with some measure of hostility.

His attitude did not sit well with Sheila, who immediately asked, "Why don't you introduce yourselves first?"

The young man sneered and replied in a slightly arrogant manner, "I'm the senior director of Flalong Auction House in Shanyan City. I'm Elsa's childhood sweetheart. We grew up together, lady!"

Shanyan City was a huge city. Although the Flalong Auction House branch there was not as huge as the one in Oolong City, it was still of a decent size. The young man was also the senior director of that auction house, so his status was very high. It came as no surprise that he would speak in such a loud tone.

"What do you mean 'childhood sweetheart'? Don't listen to his nonsense, Mister Severin." Elsa immediately rolled her eyes at the young man and said, "When did you get the free time to come over, Starkel? Don't you have an auction in another two days?"

The man, whose name was Starkel Nigg, smiled and said deliberately, "It's because I miss you, Elsa! I came here just to see you! Besides, there are other senior and junior directors in charge of that auction. I had some spare time, so I thought I should come here and spend some time with you. I'm allowed to do that, aren't I?"

After saying that, he looked at the cell phone in Elsa's hand and could not help but remark, "Did you just exchange phone numbers with this Mister Severin, right? I thought you were allergic to kids of upper- class families and governors. He might look handsome, but one look at him and you know that he isn't a good person. Don't fall for his tricks!"
