Chapter 1126: 515 Prey_1 Chapter 1126: 515 Prey_1 “Elegant and refined, quite reminiscent of David Burton, I found a treasure today,” the auctioneer said, beaming with delight.
Charlotte Aria’s fla calligraphy was completely overshadowed and forgotten.
Compared to this, both in terms of strokes and inner anings, there was no comparison at all.
He turned his head, only to find the person gone, his joyful expression suddenly froze.
Where did she go?
A staff mber pointed to the side, “She just…
left from here.”
Georgia Kiley and Cello Cook were both captivated by the writing, so they noticed nothing about Ms.
...
Aubree’s departure.
The auctioneer quickly said, “Just watched her go?
What are you waiting for, hurry up and bring her back.”
The staff mber rushed off imdiately.
Georgia Kiley smiled and said, “Mr.
Cook has lost his favorite today, I wonder if he regrets it?”
Cello Cook shook his head, “Master Kiley, you jest.
To witness the Flying White Style is worth the trip.”
“Such a broad-minded gentleman.
As the saying goes, ‘a blessing in disguise’.”
Mr.
Matthew Aria intervened, “Mr.
Cook, Master Kiley, the day is still young.
How about we go for a cup of tea?
I have sothing to consult Mr.
Cook.”
Cello Cook calmly replied, “It’s getting late.
I’ve received several calls from ho, and I must return.
We’ll discuss it so other ti.”
Cello Cook and Anton Cook left together.
Realizing that Georgia Kiley was about to leave, Catherine Liam subconsciously wanted to go forward.
But Charlotte Aria stopped her at once, shaking her head slightly.
“But…
I finally got to see Master Kiley.” Catherine Liam was unbearably disappointed.
“Today I’ve completely lost face.
If you approach him now, it will only make feel more embarrassed.”
Catherine Liam finally gave up, “All because of that wretched girl.
If I find out whose family she belongs to…”
“Oh, what, is Madam Aria going to discipline soone?” Nana Breezent interjected, her tone icy cold.
Catherine Liam forced a smile, “Not exactly, but considering she showed such a lack of respect to Master Kiley and Mr.
Cook, I wonder what kind of family raised her.
She has zero manners.”
“Well, Madam Aria is very caring and has raised a good daughter herself, but what’s the use?
You should look after yourself.
Ɲονɡօ.сο
Stressing over other people’s business will only cloud your judgnt.” Nana rolled her eyes, clearly annoyed by Catherine Liam’s small-town ntality, which was totally out of sync with the Aria Family’s high societal status.
“You…” Catherine Liam was fuming, her body trembling.
Nana simply turned her back and walked away.
“Charlotte, that woman was too harsh.
She didn’t show any respect as Madam Aria.
Your Aunt Charlotte must have slandered to her…”
“Enough.” Charlotte Aria exploded in a low voice, “Your silence would be the greatest help to .”
With that, she stord off.
Catherine Liam stood frozen in her spot, this was the first ti she’d seen Charlotte lose her temper.
She felt wronged.
She was only trying to do what was best for Charlotte.
On the other side, the auctioneer was anxious to find Violetta Gartia, but found she had left at so point.
He promptly sent people to find him: “You must find Mr.
Gartia.
Say that my lord is grateful for his generosity in offering the treasure and wishes to thank him in person.”
The value of a single ‘Green Water Pearl’ was priceless, but if added with the ‘Green Hills Pearl’, it would be a one-of-a-kind treasure.
This auction house gathered treasures from all over the world, but it was always missing a stand-out piece.
The ‘Green Hills and Clear Waters’ could suffice.
After sending off the guests, the auctioneer hastily retrieved the ‘Green Water’ from his trusted aide and cautiously opened the box to peek at it.
Seeing that the pearl was still there, he touched it gingerly, then quickly closed the lid and locked it.
He then took the elevator upstairs.
His real na was Alfred Spinter, the manager of the auction house, responsible for all the major and minor affairs of the auction house.
“Master, you must already know by now, this is the rumored ‘Green Water Pearl’.
If we can find the ‘Green Hills Pearl’, our auction house’s fa will be known throughout the country,” Alfred stated excitedly.
He presented the pearl with utmost care, but there was no response for a long ti.
He couldn’t help but sneak a glance and saw his master focusing on a piece of writing, utterly absorbed.
“Master?”
That seed to be the ink treasure left by Ms.
Aubree.
Although it was well written, it was nowhere near comparable to the ‘Green Water Pearl’.
He felt puzzled by his master’s strange behavior.
The man looked up, the overwhelming aura hitting Alfred like a wave, making him gasp for a mont.
