Chapter 89 Unveiling Hidden Agendas
Tonight's charity banquet was entirely organized by the Olsen family. While the Olsen family claimed to donate ten percent of the auction proceeds to charity, everyone knew that the Olsen family was currently facing some financial difficulties and using the auction to generate cash.
Within their social circle, this was an open secret. The old master of the Olsen family had always been known for his discerning eye and had a penchant for collecting treasures from a young age. The Olsen family had quite a few hidden treasures.
Rarely, this time, the old master of the Olsen family was being exceptionally generous. Everyone in the circle received the invitation and naturally attended. Even those without money wanted to come and have a look at the collections. It was rumored that the Adams mansion was also participating in the auction.
Avery and Isabella arrived just in time. Isabella leaned out of the car window and said, "I'll park the car and join you upstairs. Save me a seat up front."
"Alright."
Isabella had never attended such an event before. She thought it would be like trying to find a good seat in a university lecture, where positions were arranged in advance.
Generally, seating was divided in two ways: by social status or based on charitable contributions.
Fortunately, she had arranged for Isabella to make a donation in advance, so she also had a place. It wasn't a matter of sitting wherever she pleased.
However, Avery overlooked one thing. She was stopped at the door.
"Lady, do you have an invitation?" It wasn't that the security guard wanted to make things difficult for Avery. After all, who attended an event like this without wearing formal attire? It was unheard of for someone to show up in a down jacket, especially with a few feathers sticking out.
Avery calmly replied, "It's with my friend."
"I'm sorry, lady. Please wait for your friend to come in together."
This kind of event was relatively private, and Avery understood the security guard's duty.
