Never Late, Never Away Chapter 195
The two came to the outside of the storage room.
Several people were already registering their items. The items they were donating were exquisite, and they were things that had a certain collection value.
When the staff asked Vivian where was her item for auction, Vivian’s brows furrowed. She exclaimed, “Oh no, I’ve forgotten to bring something along today!”
The staff member looked at her in surprise. There are people who don’t bring anything to a charity auction? This is my first time meeting with a lady this weird?
Vivian’s face flushed, feeling embarrassed in front of the staff member. The staff must think I’m a scammer who’s here to scam some food and drinks.
When Finnick saw Vivian standing still like a child who had done something wrong, he took out a blue velvet box from his bag.
He then asked a staff member to open it, telling them that this was Mrs. Norton’s donation for the day.
Finnick had prepared the item for her, but the staff had been too quick to ask her about it; he could not hand it to them in time.
When the staff member saw the intricate velvet box, he wondered what kind of treasure was in it. The moment he opened the box, he was stunned.
Mrs. Norton’s donation was an extravagant diamond necklace. On the necklace was a total of nine diamonds, and each diamond was top grade. The workmanship was exquisite, and overall, the necklace was magnificent. Mrs. Norton’s so generous! There’s finally something to look forward to for the auction today.
The staff member nearly drooled while staring at it.
Even Vivian was dumbfounded as well. She had never seen something as pretty as this diamond necklace.
Finnick asked, “Do you like it? If you do, we’ll auction something else. I’ll gift this to you instead.”
“No, no.” Vivian hurriedly waved her hand; she could not afford to wear something like that.
