Chapter 646

During the weekend

Ryleigh and Maisie were the first to arrive at Antique Street, the largest antique trading market in Bassburgh in

addition to ceramics and gems, there were also painting collections, not to mention the ancient jewelry

This area was an ancient street composed of two blocks of retro and elegant buildings. There were all kinds of

exquisite antique and local specialty delicacies sold by stalls and shop lots located all over this street

Ryleigh and Maisie had already waited outside the auction building where the gem hunting event would take place

for quite some time when they saw Barbara walking towards them with two bodyguards

“I’m sorry, it must’ve been a long wait.” Barbara walked up to them and smiled apologetically. didn’t expect that

there would be so many people here on the weekend that my car couldn’t get in. It took such a long time to find a

parking space.”

Maisie smiled. “It’s okay Ryleigh and I just arrived.”

Barbara nodded. “What a relief. I’ve already reserved three seats for us, and they’re all located in the front row.

Let’s go, time to go in and get ourselves some raw gemstones.”

All of them walked into the auction building that housed the gem-hunting event, and the first thing that caught their

eyes was the magnificent and grand lobby. There were many people in it, and most of them were wearing

masquerade masks and dressed in extraordinary clothes

Those who would attend the gem-hunting event were either businessmen who had a thing for antiques or people

who were filthy rich, and they were here to try their luck

The ushers came toward them in masquerade masks and handed each of them a mask

Maisie put on the masquerade mask while Ryleigh asked her suspiciously, Why is everyone wearing masks?”

Maisie leaned into her ear and explained, “On such an occasion, what’s on the line makes it enigmatic, so the more

mysterious the event is, the better Hence, wearing a mask makes things run smoother and more conveniently.”

Ryleigh was still confused when Maisie was already halfway through her explanation. That was when

Barbara turned around to look at her and added with a smile, “What Ms. Vanderbilt is trying to say is that wearing a

mask can save all the attendees some unnecessary trouble. You’ll win the auction or bet without knowing the

identities of both parties, so it depends solely on the financial resources that both parties possess and how

confident one is. In short, no matter if you’re here to make a profit or give your money away for nothing, as long as

others can’t see your face, no one will catch up to you later on to pick a fight with you.

“Making a fuss in the auction building is a forbidden action. Law and order here are extremely strict. So, if someone

were to be caught creating a stir here and got their identity exposed, it’d only be exceptionally embarrassing for

them.



“Some wealthy businessmen in the past were worried that they would be retaliated against by those who had lost

money and were jealous of their score. Thus, they came up with a way to prevent needless incidents, and that’s by

wearing masks.”

Maisie looked at her. “You’re no stranger to such occasions, huh?”

Barbara did not conceal her true colors. “To be honest, I’m only interested in antiques, especially gems, compared

to the other ladies who love their diamonds.”

The receptionists standing on both sides of the entrance bowed respectfully to welcome them into the exhibition

hall. The glass cabinets on display around the hall were filled with raw gemstones that had been evaluated and had

their prices marked.

All the raw gemstones were of different shapes and sizes, all arranged in order according to their pricing.

Strong spotlights were beaming on them from all corners of the cabinet, which allowed the guests to distinguish the

texture and pattern of the raw gemstones so that they could judge whether they contained precious gems.

Ryleigh leaned over again. “Don’t these look just like ordinary stones? Where are the gems?”

Maisie chuckled. “Rough diamonds all look like stones too.”

Ryleigh pouted.

‘Well, what Zee said makes sense. I just asked a dumb question.

Barbara went to the other side to take a look at the other stones while Ryleigh followed Maisie around.

Maisie stared at the raw gemstones in the glass cabinet and asked her casually, “Why would Barbara think of

inviting us here to look at raw gemstones?” “She said she’s bored, and she’s always wanted to come here to take a

look at the raw gemstones that this place has to offer. However, Jenny has never been interested in these, and she

didn’t want to come alone, so she invited us.”

Maisie turned her head to look at her and tapped her fingertips lightly on the glass casing “Barbara has only met

me once, and she’s already helped me with Mr. Ludwig’s affairs. I can’t see through her intentions.”
