Chapter 119

The next day, Thomas Dunn himself came to pick Nathan up. He went along with him to meet Harvey Babcock and to discuss the amount of compensation.

But before Nathan and Thomas reached the auction house, they received a call from Colin.

“Yes, sir. It appears that Mr. Smith is the target of a scam,” confirmed Colin.
