Chapter 281 Please Forgive Me
Meanwhile, Alex was disappointed when he realized that the attitude of the staff at Breezecworth Hall was just as bad.
He coldly replied, “I walked in here, of course.”
The manager snorted as he looked down upon Alex. “If you don’t show me your invitation letter, I will be forced to ask you to leave.”
Just as he spoke, a few security guards approached and glared fiercely at Alex.
Alex smiled and said, “Fine. Since you’re so persistent, I don’t want to attend your auction anymore.”
It was just an auction and wasn’t such a big deal for him.
If it weren’t for the fact that he was looking for the Monoceros Bone to help the Jones family, he wouldn’t have come in the first place.
Whatever treasures that were on sale, he wasn’t interested in them at all.
The moment he finished, he began to leave as there was no point staying back and arguing with these people.
Seeing that Alex was leaving, Jacob burst into laughter behind him, “Hahaha, you idiot. Are you scared now? Or are you feeling guilty? How dare you gatecrash the auction? What an a**hole!”
Meanwhile, the manager looked on with a condescending expression. A piece of trash trying to sneak in? Do you think so low of the security guards here?
Alex ignored them and continued walking out.
At that moment that there was an uproar in the crowd.
All Alex could see was the crowd making way for a man and a woman to enter.
The lady was dressed in a black gown. She had exquisite features and an alluring figure.
Under the bright and shiny lights, her beauty and charm were especially captivating. When she walked, her demeanor was enchantingly elegant.
Her exceptional beauty caused Jacob to simply gawk at her.
The beauty was Maggie, daughter of the owner of Breezeworth Hall.
When Maggie entered the gallery, she scanned her surroundings and suddenly saw Alex walking out.
“Mr. Jefferson, I’m so sorry. There was a delay and I arrived two minutes late. Please forgive me.” Maggie walked up to Alex and bowed with an apologetic expression.
Two days ago, she promised to welcome Alex at the door. Now, her promise was not fulfilled.
What’s going on?
The manager and Jacob were stunned.

“Don’t worry about it. I’m taking my leave now,” Alex plainly replied as he waved his hand.

“Huh? The auction is just about to start. Mr. Jefferson, do you have something urgent?” Maggic gave Alex a quizzical look.
Alex replied with a smile, “No, it’s just that the manager here didn’t allow me to enter. I wasn’t even allowed to participate in the auction.”
“What? Is that so?”
Shocked, Maggie turned her gaze towards the manager as her expression darkened.
