"To be honest, it's not a big deal... It's just that I received an invitation to an antique auction. I don't have the time, and I was hoping you could go in my place... Helpacquire a jasper hairpin from Tang Dynasty. I wonder, could you do that for me, please?" Sharon Lindt asked with a smile.

"When is it?" Xyla Quest asked.

"A week later, eight o'clock in the evening," Sharon said before retrieving the invitation from her handbag and pushing it over to Xyla.

Xyla had heard about this antique auction before. She was told that all antique items auctioned there were extremely rare and valuable. In fact, all antique items would start with a bidding price of at least ten million dollars.

It wasn't an auction just anyone could attend because they had money.

Not only was wealth necessary, but a very prominent status was needed too.

"Okay," Xyla answered with little hesitation.

"Make any offer you'd like. Somebody will pay for it," Sharon said as she gently patted the back of Xyla's hand. She treated Xyla with extraffection.

"Oh, right. There's another suprsapphire necklace from France made in 1950. Get that one too while you're at it... The price doesn't matter. Whenever somebody raises the bid price, you'll only have to raise it further," Sharon added.

"Okay, I understand, Aunty Lindt," Xyla said and laughed.

"Also, if you see anything you like, you can buy it too. I'll pay for it," Sharon said generously.

"It's okay, Aunty... If there's anything I like, I will buy it with my money," Xyla said. How could she make Sharon pay for her stuff? Sharon had already given her more than enough. Xyla wasn't shameless enough to ask for more.

"You silly girl," Sharon said before shaking her head helplessly. She gently rubbed Xyla's head with affection in her eyes. "Hey... Who's this..." A familiar female voice spoke. Xyla frowned slightly as she turned around to look at the person.

Right then, Mary Sullivan was standing behind Xyla with a grim expression on her face. Her arms were crossed over her chest as she looked down at Xyla's face. It was an arrogant posture, almost as if Mary was on top of the world.

Xyla did a mental calculation and realized that Mary must have only left prison today.

"What do you want?" Xyla looked at Mary coldly.

"Must I want something when I speak to you?" Mary asked before casually sitting down next to Xyla. She was completely ignoring Sharon, who sat across from her.

Sharon glanced at Mary plainly without saying anything. Instead, she silently sipped at a glass of water.

"Is there anything to talk about between the two of us?" Xyla asked.

"You might think there isn't, but I think otherwise... For such a minor thing... You have sentto prison. I was locked inside for so long. How could you be such an evil woman?" Mary said coldly before looking up at Sharon. "Hey... You, woman. I suggest you stay far away from her. She is very evil," Mary added.

"Oh? Do tell. How evil is she?" Sharon looked up slowly at Mary's face with a half-hearted smile.

"She shamelessly sends people to prison. Don't you think that's evil?" Mary asked.

"If the person didn't do anything wrong, the prison wouldn't have taken her in, in the first place, would they? Darling, I suggest you get your brain checked," Sharon said before gently moving the base of her glass in a circular motion.

The plain water began swirling around in the glass. With sunlight shining upon the glass, colorful m refraction of light made it seem as if there was a layer of silver powder on the surface of the water. "What did you say?" Mary's facial expression instantly darkened. "Darling, if there's something wrong with your ear, I suggest you get it checked too," Sharon added. Although she had on a poker face, the words she said were unforgiving at the very least.
