Now that Eliana had finally uncovered the truth, she didn’t care about Erica anymore. All she wanted to do was to retrieve both her parents’ personal belonging.

Seeing that Erica had just been taught a lesson, Maurice casually handed the check to Theo.

With the check in his possession, Theo quickly sealed the deal with the person in charge of the auction house.

“Mr. Moran, we are greatly pleased to have you here with us. You are so generous.”

The person in charge looked at the auctioneer with a smile and gave a nod. The auctioneer immediately brought the music box to Eliana and handed the priceless item to her, bowing slightly in respect.

“Miss Pierce, congratulations. You are now the new owner of this precious antique.”

Eliana’s hands couldn’t stop trembling. The small music box was sold to them at fifteen million dollars.

But for her, what made it so valuable was not the well-designed box itself.

She lifted the lid open, and three miniature figures in western classical clothes stood up and began to dance to the sweet melody.

The three little figures included a man, a woman, and a little girl. Judging from the noticeable smiles on their faces, they were obviously a happy family. If one took a closer look, they would find that the little girl’s face bore a striking resemblance to Eliana’s.
