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.”
