Henry's arrival brought a strange atmosphere into the room.
"Hello, Mr. Lewis. Are you here to buy some antiques?" The manager asked respectfully.
The other two workers immediately served expensive tea to him.
At this moment, Rosa's phone rang.
"Rosa, I can't go, something came up. Don't worry, I've asked my uncle to help you. Don't be scared okay? he'll settle it for you guys. Alright, I need to go. I'll call you back later." Miranda hung up the call before Rosa could reply.
Rosa frowned. 'Don't be afraid, my uncle's coming?'
God, he was the one that she was most afraid of!
"Mr. Lewis, save me..."
After hearing their conversation over the phone, Grace suddenly broke free from Rosa's embrace and rushed over to kneel in front of Henry.
"Mr. Lewis!" Denny asked the worker to bring over a comfortable chair.
The man sat down immediately and casually placed his fingers on the armrest, tapping gently.
Grace stared at him as she knelt and shifted closer to him.
The next second, she clutched onto the bottom of his pants and said with tears in her eyes, "Please save me, Mr. Lewis. I am Miranda's friend. Really, I am your niece's friend!"
"So what?" The man chuckled indifferently.
Grace was stunned and looked at him in confusion.
"Mr. Lewis, was... was it not Miranda who sent you here?"
"I was just curious about who was the person that she wanted to help." The man said as he glanced over to Rosa.
Then, he continued, "I never said that I would help!"
Grace laughed as she cried, "It's me, I'm that person. I'm Miranda's friend. Please save me, save me..."
The female manager was sweating.
"She knows Mr. Lewis?" she wondered.
Heavens, the way she treated her just now...
Denny walked over.
"Mr. Lewis, I've checked it. It is in fact the porcelain vase from the Victorian era worth 2 million dollars!" He leaned over and reported.
