?Chapter 1113: 510 Unscathed_3 Chapter 1113: 510 Unscathed_3 When everyone left, Catherine Liam curled her lips: “Such a mess, so embarrassing.”
Seraphina Parker replied helplessly: “Madam Aria, I apologize on behalf of my niece.
I don’t know who she takes after, she just can’t stand any kind of loss.”
Catherine Liam glanced at her: “You’re not having an easy time yourself.”
Seraphina’s eyes welled up: “Madam, thank you.”
Catherine Liam couldn’t be bothered to expose her, as she was so engrossed in the drama just now.
Catherine Liam turned to Esther: “You reacted quite fast.
If it wasn’t for you, I can’t imagine the consequences.”
Esther spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly: “I was just doing my duty, Madam.
You flatter me too much.”
“Alright, enough standing around here.
Let’s go inside.”
After several people entered, two figures gradually appeared from the doorway.
“Ah, it’s a shame that a fight didn’t break out, it would have been such a spectacle,” said a woman in a red dress, looking strikingly vibrant as if she was a blaze of fire.
...
A glimpse of her stunning figure might be disappointing when you saw her face, though.
Despite her beauty, it seemed like there was something missing.
Next to her, Young Lady White was elegant and gentle, her expression soft and harmless, like a wisp of smoke in the wind.
At that moment, hurried footsteps approached from behind.
A group of people, surrounding a woman, strode towards the building.
Seeing this, Aubree Groove pulled Kelly Martinez back a step.
Just as the woman was about to walk through the glass door, a metallic object dropped onto the floor with a loud clink.
A silver object rolled at Aubree Groove’s feet.
The woman stiffened her expression and then quickly rushed over.
Aubree picked it up, it was a silver ring, simple and classy.
It looked quite aged with wear and tear, and inside was an engraving in English.
You are my destiny.
The ring felt warm, as if it still carried the woman’s warmth.
“Here it is.” Aubree held it out.
The woman snatched the ring and began checking it carefully for any damages.
Once she verified the ring was untouched, she let out a sigh of relief, carefully wrapped it in a handkerchief, and then put it carefully into her bag.
Only then did the woman look at Aubree, her face expressing shock.
“My queen?”
The young lady smiled slightly, as if a bloom in early spring, “You’re mistaken, ma’am.”
The woman quickly realized her mistake and shook her head with a laugh: “I must be crazy, how could you be the queen?”
Kelly, standing by Aubree, narrowed her eyes when she heard the woman say that.
“Are you here to attend the auction?” The woman’s Mandarin wasn’t perfect, and had a unique accent.
Aubree smiled and replied: “Yes.”
The woman’s assistant whispered: “Ma’am, we are running out of time.”
The woman turned to leave, “I’m sorry, but I have to rush.
Hopefully, we will meet again.”
And with that, she strode away, leaving them in her wake.
“Let’s go inside.” Aubree straightened her dress.
Kelly held her back, “Do you know who that woman was?”
Aubree raised an eyebrow.
Kelly showed her a biography on her phone.
It had impressive credentials but no photos.
Aubree glanced at it and walked inside.
Inside the auction, chairs were neatly set up in rows.
The VIP seats in front were for the elites and aristocrats.
Aubree and Kelly chose to sit in the farthest corner.
Kelly grabbed a cherry from the fruit bowl in front of them and looked around.
“As expected, we came to the right place.”
Seeing a familiar face at the entrance, Kelly lit up, “How unstoppable destiny is!”
Waving a hand at the entrance, Kelly called out, “Professor Gartia, what a coincidence!”
What are the odds?
Violetta Gartia calmly walked over and greeted with a smile, “Ms.
Martinez.”
His aloofness and politeness made him the perfect gentleman.
Aubree gave a polite nod, “Professor Gartia.”
Professor Gartia took a seat on the other side of the aisle from the two women.
“Are you here for a specific item, Professor Gartia?”
Professor Gartia chuckled, “I’m just here to learn a thing or two, what about you?”
“Came for the spectacle.
I love the crowd, where there are people, there’s me.” Kelly tossed a cherry into the air, tracing a perfect parabola in the air before she caught it in her mouth.
Her elegant neck held her radiant face, her red lips moving along with the cherry, creating a scene that was both sensual and captivating.
Professor Gartia’s gaze darkened.
