The Runaway Groom By Hauling Treasures Chapter 449

Chapter 449

Irene panicked and quickly turned away, fearful that she would be recognized.

Mick noticed that, and shifted his body to keep her hidden, while asking quietly, "What's wrong?’

She never expected him to show up there!

Nonetheless, Mick told her, “Don’t worry. He's not going to notice-the hall is quite dimly lit and you're wearing a mask."

Irene was actually just too surprised to see Harvey there and became nervous. Still, she quickly calmed down, and thought to herself that he would not notice her since she was sitting behind him.

Moreover, he probably would not recognize her after what had happened to her face anyway.

Soon, the auction began, with the host giving a simple speech before proceeding to the auction proper.

Most items auctioned for the day could be categorized into an assortment of antiques and jewelry, with the first one being a tapestry.

Mick appeared calm, seemingly uninterested in the tapestry.
