With that said, Lisha grabbed Jagoan’s wrist and pulled him toward the exit of the antique market.
Jagoan put away the Guardian Sword and followed Lisha out of the antique market.
Madam Katy had bought the third ancient bronze sword fragment, so it was not in the antique market. In that case, Jagoan would not stay here and waste his time.
Rapid o’s face darkened as he watched Jagoan and Lisha walk away with the bodyguards.
“D*mn it…”
***
The sky was getting darker.
Jagoan and Ms. Lisha returned to the mayor’s residence, and it was only 7.30 p.m.-half an hour before 8 pm.
“Thank you, Mr. Jagoan. I had a great day. It’s probably the best day I’ve had in a while,” Lisha said with a smile.
“It’s my honor that you’re happy, Ms. Lisha,” Jagoan said politely.
“Don’t be so polite, Mr. Jagoan. You’re my savior. I don’t want us to be like strangers,” Lisha quickly replied.
Jagoan smiled and then said, “Okay, got it… If there’s a chance, I can go shopping with you again.”
“That’s great!” Lisha cheered with joy.
Then Lisha pulled out her phone and contacted Madam Katy.
“Hello, Madam Katy. It’s me, Lisha… I heard you bought an ancient bronze sword fragment from the antique market. Is that true? My friend is interested in the fragment. I’m wondering if you’re willing to part with it. It would be great if you do.”
After hanging up, Lisha looked at Jagoan with a complicated expression.
Jagoan already had a bad feeling. There was probably something wrong with the ancient bronze sword fragment!
Sure enough, Lisha replied, “Mr. Jagoan, Madam Katy is willing to give away the ancient bronze sword fragment, but she has given it to Crosac’s Harvey Chamber of Commerce, and Harvey Chamber of Commerce is holding an auction at 8 pm. tomorrow on the top floor of Harvey Tower. The ancient bronze sword fragment will be put up for public sale as part of the auction.”
An auction?
A public auction!
Jagoan never expected the ancient bronze sword he was searching for would appear in the auction as an auction item.
