Chapter 100
“Um… Ms. Blackwood, shall I accompany you inside?” Jordan maintained his respectful attitude towards her.
“No need, I’m waiting for my friend. She’s coming,” Aveline replied.
From a distance, Aveline saw a woman wearing a red fur coat, resembling a flamingo. She was also
wearing flesh–colored stockings and high heels.
Suddenly, Aveline didn’t want to admit that she knew her. She didn’t expect her friend to arrive late
because she was changing in the car.
Maya approached with a fragrant breeze, wearing exaggerated sunglasses. Aveline turned and walked away, saying, “No, I mistook you for someone else. I’ll go in first.”
“Aveline, wait for me!”
Maya walked up to Jordan, wearing high heels, and took off her sunglasses to glare at him. “Did you make Aveline angry again?”
Jordan never commented on a woman’s attire, but at this moment…
“Do you think the here is a nightclub? Why are you dressed like this for clubbing?”
Maya was bold and fierce by nature. She was already dissatisfied with Alexander, and seeing Jordan, Alexander’s lackey, made her even more upset.
“You’re asking for trouble. I’ll definitely dress like this and go dancing on your grave.”
Jordan couldn’t be bothered to argue with a woman. “Follow me inside.”
Maya took out the invitation letter with an arrogant expression. “No need, I have my own seat.”
While the two were talking, Aveline had already gone upstairs. Anthony used to like coming here too. He didn’t have many hobbies, but he enjoyed collecting antiques.
From a bronze ding from the Spring and Autumn Period to jade artifacts from an ancient Dynasty, he bought a lot when the family was wealthy. No one knew that his would also do pottery and make tea cups and bowls in his spare time.

Chapter 100
Such a cultured and artistic uncle, if it weren’t for the irrefutable evidence, Aveline couldn’t have imagined that he would do something so crazy.
Aveline walked through the antique building, and along the way, she saw several items behind the glass that looked familiar. Weren’t they the treasures Dad used to collect?
There was even a small tooth mark on the money bag carved on the wooden statue of Maitreya Buddha.
When she was six years old, Anthony joked that there were candies in the money bag. She bit down hard
and almost broke her tooth.
Because of that, there was a small tooth mark on the wooden carving of the money bag, making the whole statue even more lovely and childlike.
Memories of the past flooded her mind, and Aveline’s eyes became a little teary. It felt like she was back in her childhood, unwilling to leave the glass.
When she snapped back to reality and remembered her main purpose for coming today, she turned around and came face to face with Alexander, who was also standing in front of the exhibit.
He had a handsome appearance, and his black wool coat outlined his tall figure. His black pupils looked at her, like a black hole with no end in sight.
-Alexander only glanced at her casually before retracting his gaze.
“Excuse me,” Aveline said coldly as she passed by him. It was as if the two of them had never crossed paths.
Nora approached him with a smile on her face. “Alexander, why are you here?”
Sierra teased from the side, “Of course, he came for you, Nora. You and Mr. Sterling are so affectionate. You can’t bear to be apart even for a moment, even before getting married.”
Sierra suddenly noticed Aveline’s presence and grabbed her, once again speaking without any regard for her own life, “How did you sneak in? Where are the security guards? How did they let her in!”
