"Ugh... I've never been to an auction before..."
Maddie replied, "Don't worry, I’ll be there, and my mom will be with us too."
"Should we go and see if there's anything suitable? If not, I'll come back and reconsider?"
"Sure thing!"
But Maddie's mom didn't tell her that the auction was actually a charity auction hosted by Rebecca.
Sebastian attended Rebecca's charity auctions almost every time and always managed to get something.
He had collected many precious jewels and accessories for Stephanie's castle.
This time was no exception; Sebastian heard about the auction and went in person.
Stephanie and Maddie dressed up and followed Mrs. Palmer, meeting many people, mostly fancy ladies that Mrs. Palmer knew...
Surprisingly, Stephanie spotted Mrs. Klein in the crowd.
But this time, Mrs. Klein didn't bring Katherine Klein; she brought Angela Klein instead.
Stephanie wondered if Katherine's behavior last time had completely disgusted Mrs. Klein.
But compared to Katherine, she hated Angela even more, who was two-faced.
"Oh, Mrs. Palmer!"
"Mrs. Klein... You're attending the charity auction too!"
"Yes... our Klein family has always been doing charity, so how could we miss this auction!"
Mrs. Palmer smiled and said, "Let me introduce you, this is my daughter, Maddie, and this is her friend, Stephanie."
Mrs. Klein hadn't noticed Stephanie at first, but when introduced, her face changed instantly, and her gaze shifted to Stephanie.
There were many people around, and Stephanie didn't want to upset Mrs. Klein, so she just nodded slightly and said, "Hello, Mrs. Klein."
Maddie knew that Stephanie was the illegitimate daughter of the Klein family, so she immediately gave her mom a look and said, "Hello, Mrs. Klein."
