An antique worth two hundred million?
Penny's face turned pale. Her company still owed hundreds of millions, they wouldn't be able to cough up two hundred million even if they sold their house!
She told her mother not to panic, Nathan and she would head over to take care of the matter.
Nathan noticed that Penny's face had lost all color after her phone call.
So he furrowed his brows and asked her what had happened.
Penny explained the situation to him while fighting to hold back her tears.
Nathan answered calmly, "And here you had me worried it was something horrific. Everything will be fine as long as no one was injured. Come on, let's go and check it out."
Nathan, Penny, and Queenie left the natatorium and headed over to the market.
They could see that a crowd had gathered outside the market.
Penny got out of the car and headed over, with Queenie in her arms and Nathan following right behind them.
Arriving on the scene, they saw two damaged vehicles. One was the Mercedes-Benz E-Class that Nathan bought for Benson, and the other was a Toyota Alphard minivan that was worth over one million.
There were a lot of people loitering around and passing their comments, but Leah and Benson were nowhere to be found.
Penny quickly gave her mother a call, only to find out that she and Benson had been dragged to an auction house nearby by the other party.
After hearing so, Nathan, Penny, and Queenie quickly rushed over.
When they entered the auction house, they noticed a handful of fierce-looking men in suits standing around the place.
When the men saw Nathan and his family walking in, one of them walked up to them. "Who are you? We're closed for the day and we're not entertaining any more customers. Come back some other day,” he growled.
