Chapter 798:
But in his mind, Christina could never hold a candle to Yolanda. Not in this lifetime. Yolanda had true talent when it came to fashion design. If she managed to catch the eye of the renowned designer, Allison, and land an apprenticeship, her career would be set for life. And once Yolanda became Allison’s apprentice, it would be a huge boost for the Dawson Group.
Brendon admitted that he was shocked to learn Christina was actually that piano genius, Tiana. But what good would that do for the Dawson Group? Absolutely nothing. It brought no benefit to them, and that made her completely irrelevant.
With that thought lingering, Brendon reached out and playfully pinched Yolanda’s chin before leaning in to kiss her lips. “Since you miss your parents so much, let’s go see them,” he said with a grin.
Yolanda lit up and peppered his face with kisses. “I know you are the best, Brendon!”
“You’re my future wife. If I don’t treat you right, who will?” Brendon laughed.
“Brendon, I heard there’s going to be an auction in Kitaso. Want to check it out?” Yolanda suggested, seizing the opportunity.
Her true intention behind bringing up the visit to her parents was to attend the auction—she was hoping to get her hands on something rare and valuable. If she could manage to snag something that would impress someone influential, it could help her climb the social ladder.
“An auction?” Brendon echoed, his brows furrowing. “I don’t really have anything I’m looking for…”
“It won’t hurt to just browse. If we find something nice—or something that could make a good gift—we can bid on it. I heard Mrs. Scott is throwing a birthday party this year,” Yolanda added casually.
Her parents had pulled every string to find out what Margot Scott, Dylan’s grandmother, liked. It turned out that Margot had a quiet fondness for collecting oil paintings.

Yolanda’s parents were planning to bid on Feathers of the Divine at the auction and gift it to Margot for her birthday. Urging Brendon to come along was because they weren’t confident their own funds would be enough. With Brendon’s support, their chances of winning the bid were significantly higher. Yolanda’s family was determined to get their hands on that painting.
Yolanda’s words triggered something in Brendon’s mind. If he could pick out a birthday gift that genuinely delighted Margot, it would not only be a thoughtful gesture—it could also win her favor and bring serious advantages to the Dawson Group.
And even if the gift didn’t leave a lasting impression, Brendon knew he wouldn’t suffer any loss. Just showing up at her birthday banquet would give him a shot at building solid connections. It was the kind of opportunity he couldn’t pass up.
Right then and there, Brendon resolved to attend the auction in Kitaso and bid on something nice.
“Alright,” Brendon said, nodding. “We’ll attend that auction. We’ll head to Kitaso later, and if anything catches your eye, go ahead and bid for it. Don’t worry about the money—I’ll cover everything.” He leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to Yolanda’s forehead.
“Thank you,” Yolanda murmured, snuggling closer into his chest, her tone sweet. “How I wish you could treat me this well my whole life.”
