Chapter 1513: Chapter 1516: The Test Arranged by the Mother-in-law (2)
Aidan Lucas, who was unwilling to meddle in others’ affairs, was ensnared by an old expert in the collectibles field and had no choice but to take the cell phone handed to him.
At a glance, the black pupils that were originally cold and indifferent, suddenly brightened a few degrees.
The vase depicted in the photo was indeed identical to the one being auctioned on stage.
Such a precious antique vase was already rare, and now, another one had appeared.
This was enough for Aidan Lucas to squint his eyes and take the matter seriously.
"Is the vase in this photo from your family’s collection?"
Aidan Lucas bypassed the Old Hag and looked directly at Monica, who was seated to the Old Hag’s right.
This was tonight, the first time that Aidan Lucas had looked at another woman with seriousness, besides Lily.
Monica, with beauty that rivaled flowers, met Aidan Lucas’s gaze, and her large watery eyes blinked innocently like a deer’s.
"Um, yes."
Monica was indeed very beautiful.
Her deliberate display of an innocent and stunned expression made her even more irresistible to men.
Upon seeing her, they wished nothing more than to hold her in their arms and tenderly protect her.
Monica had thought.
That upon seeing her, there must be a flash of amazement in Aidan Lucas’s eyes.
But to her surprise, Aidan Lucas merely glanced at her indifferently and his deep and calm black pupils returned to the phone.
After a long while, Monica heard Aidan Lucas’s low and magnetic voice, "Miss, if it’s convenient, please come with me."
He rose, and his tall and long figure exerted an immense sense of pressure.
Monica unconsciously lowered her head, making herself appear even more weak and innocent.
Aidan Lucas gave her a profound look and walked out without a word.
Monica quickly followed his steps.
Soon, the two entered a private room, which was prepared in advance for VIPs to rest.
The room was very quiet. At this moment, apart from the two of them, there was no one else.
Monica revealed a doormat-like, timid, and pitiful look.
With incredibly innocent eyes, she looked timidly at the expressionless man, "Mr. Lucas...I’m sorry, I know what I did was akin to disrupting the auction. But please forgive me, I couldn’t stand by and watch the Old Hag be deceived."
"This pastel thin vase, my family really does have one, and I’m certain that the one we own is genuine. So, the vase being auctioned on stage must be fake!"
In fact, the so-called pastel thin vase was originally a pair, one of the collections owned by the Redington family.
The Duchess, in order to test her son-in-law, made a big investment.
She sent one to the auction house for auction.
And left the other with Monica so that she could use this opportunity to seduce Aidan Lucas.
Eager to prove that she was not lying, Monica quickly moved closer to Aidan Lucas, attempting to take the phone.
"If you don’t believe me, I can show you. I have a video of it on my cell phone..."
Monica seemed quite anxious, walking so fast that she accidentally tripped over her own feet.
Her delicate petite frame was about to crash directly into Aidan Lucas.
"Ah..." Monica cried out coquettishly, her face turned white with fright, looking particularly pitiful.
It appeared that she was about to tumble into Aidan Lucas’s arms.
In her expectations, the gentlemanly man should have extended his arms to catch her steadily.
However, to Monica’s astonishment, without any hesitation, he took a step back.
As if he felt that wasn’t enough retreat.
Half a second later, Mr. Lucas took another step back.
Then, he just stood there, coldly observing Monica as she forcibly fell onto the cold tile floor.
"Ah...uh..."
Pain!
Such pain!
Monica fell chest-first to the ground, her face contorted with the agony!?
