There was actually someone who could do such a thing? One had to know that the walls here were reinforced with special metal. Even if a Monarch came, he might not be able to create a single mark on the wall.
Just who was this person who could actually make a large hole?
Audrey smiled gently. Since she had met someone she knew, would she not be at a disadvantage if she did not act pitiful?
“That person just now insisted that I had sneaked in. She even said that I went into your room to steal your things, but I didn’t… she even wanted to send someone to capture me and throw me out.”
Audrey pursed her lips, and there was a hint of a sob in her voice. Seeing her face like this, Elsa was dumbfounded.
This girl just blew a hole in the wall yet she’s acting like this. Moreover, she just said that she would beat up the person she called over…
Why is she acting pitiful in front of someone she knows?
Elsa did not know how to explain herself.
Although she knew that the little girl in front of her was faking it, she did not deny that what she said was the truth.
Reginald frowned when he heard Audrey’s words. He turned to look at the woman who was still curled up behind Marcus.
“Don’t you know that she’s a guest that I specially invited? How dare you treat her like this?”
Elsa was stunned for a moment before she hurriedly explained.
“How could I know! She looks like she’s trying to steal something. Also, that hole in the wall just now was also her…”
Before she could finish her sentence, a crisp slap sounded.
Audrey was startled by the sudden sound. She looked up and saw that Elsa’s face had tilted to one side, and the side of her face was beginning to turn slightly red.
Marcus retracted his hand expressionlessly.
“Didn’t I tell you? No matter who it is, as long as they come in, they’ll be our guests. Treat them well. How dare you?”
Ayesha felt the sharp pain coming from the side of her face, and her eyes turned red.
“President… listen to my explanation. I really didn’t do it on purpose. It was really her at that time…”
“You’re still trying to quibble?” Marcus narrowed his eyes.
He had thought that the woman in front of him had good business skills, so he had kept her here. Who knew that he would actually do such a stupid thing.
After all, the little girl was carrying a secret about their entire auction house. Since she had offended the little girl, there was no need for her to stay here.
“Pack up your things and leave by tonight.” Marcus turned his head away from her and continued, “I don’t want to see your things here tomorrow.”
Leave? Elsa covered her burning face. She could not believe what she had just heard.
She had worked here for eight years and had worked hard for them for eight years, but now she was asked to leave because of a little girl.
This job was not only very stable but also very profitable. How could she give up this job so easily?
Elsa did not care about her reputation anymore. She immediately knelt down with tears on her face.
“President… I’m sorry, I was really wrong. I beg you, please forgive me this time. I won’t do it again. President, I really beg you.”
She raised her hand to grab the leg of Marcus’ pants, but Marcus only turned his head and looked at her indifferently.
“I should have told you that I hate people who cause trouble without reason.”
Elsa froze on the spot. Her tears slid down from the corners of her eyes and finally fell to the ground.
The people behind Marcus all looked at her with pity. After all, the president could be said to be an existence that could cover the sky with one hand.
Elsa did not know where she got such audacity to dare to hold the president against his will. Although she was lying on the ground and crying pitifully, it was in line with an old saying that poor people must have something hateful about them.
“Alright, you don’t have to care anymore. There’s nothing for you to do here. Let’s go. I’ll take you down. You can go sit in the hall for a while.” Reginald stretched out his hand toward Audrey.
Seeing the kind old man stretching out his hand toward her, Audrey was stunned for a moment. In the end, she shook his hand. Before she left, she happened to pass by Elsa’s side.
Listening to the sobbing sounds, Audrey glanced sideways at the poor woman. Although she did not want things to turn out like this, there was nothing she could do.
After all, this woman had come to find her first. It was a pity. She might have thought that she really did not have any background.
However, she could not imagine that she would kneel on the ground five minutes later, feeling sad for her ill-fated fate.
Following the large group of people down the stairs, Audrey’s appearance naturally attracted the attention of many people.
It was not time for the auction to begin, and there would occasionally be guests coming in. Every guest who came in was stunned when they saw the scene in front of them.
Then, their gazes fell on the graceful and noble girl in the middle.
Audrey had only taken two steps here, and she felt as if she had been baptized by many gazes.
