“Boss, why aren’t we going in?” Chase asked.
Ellinor stood still, watching Theo alight from his car and enter the auction house. She frowned, “I saw someone I don’t fancy Let’s wait a bit before we go in.”

“1.5 million!”
“2 million!”
“3 million!”
Eventually, these paintings were won by a mysterious buyer from booth number 1 for a whopping 1.8 million dollars, causing a stir among the spectators!
