Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 370

“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… Help me acquire 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.

“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…”
