Alix inclines his head. "I understand. I leave the particulars in your capable hands."
Cedric rises, carefully gathering the items. "Thank you for entrusting us with these treasures. I will personally oversee their authentication and ensure they are presented appropriately."
Cedric's gaze lingers on the exceptional items Alix has presented, his mind already calculating the immense interest they will generate. He straightens, his professional demeanor returning.
"Sir," Cedric begins, "in light of the extraordinary nature of these items, I propose we delay today's auction by an hour to properly announce their inclusion. This will allow us to inform our esteemed clientele and ensure that these treasures receive the attention they deserve."
Alix nods, his expression calm and understanding. "That's acceptable. I can wait."
"Excellent," Cedric responds, relief evident in his tone. "I shall make the necessary arrangements immediately."
