章 429: Auction trap (6)

The eldest prince talked to me for a bit before sitting back down on his own balcony.

After he was gone, I deeply knitted my brows as I tried to figure out just what the eldest prince was doing here.

But I couldn't think of anything no matter how I tried.

It just didn't make sense that the eldest prince would suddenly appear in this place…

I just spent the rest of the time before the auction thinking about all the different reasons that this might be possible.

It was only when the auction began that I was finally pulled out of my thoughts.

The auction started with the lights dimming in the room and a spotlight appearing on stage.

When the spotlight appeared, there was a person that walked out who stood under it.

This person didn't look like an auctioneer, he looked like the perfect example of a crooked merchant. With his top hat, his round glasses, his pencil thin moustache, and the evil look on his face.
