Chapter 407 Silencing
Donald slammed his cane on the ground twice. "Quiet!"
Because of Donald's status, everyone quieted down temporarily, but their faces still showed extreme anger.
Donald looked at Raymond with a deep gaze and said calmly, "Raymond, you tell me what exactly happened."
Hearing Donald's tone, Raymond couldn't help but break out in a few beads of cold sweat. Usually, when he spoke like that, it meant he was very angry.
And he knew Donald's style of doing things best; he wasn't even human...
Raymond wiped the cold sweat from his face. "I...I really didn't know..."
Just now, Li Xun and several appraisers brought several owners of the auction items here to confirm their items.
"These are the rules we agreed on beforehand, so I opened the door, and this is what it looked like when I opened it..."
Donald immediately turned his gaze this way, "Really? Where is Li Xun?"
Li Xun cautiously stepped out from the crowd. "Mayor, I'm here..."
"Was what happened just now as Raymond described?"
Feeling the intense gazes from Donald and Raymond, Li Xun involuntarily trembled twice. "Yes..."
I came here with my auctioneer, but Mr. Raymond hadn't opened the door yet when we arrived.
After several of us appraisers went up to verify Mr. Raymond's identity, he finally opened the door.
He went in and came out quickly, then told us to go outside, and then... well, you know what happened..."
Donald nodded. "So, from beginning to end, only Raymond went in?"
Raymond felt his legs go weak instantly. "Mr. Donald, it really wasn't me!"
"Then how are you going to explain this situation to me? So many artifacts, such tight security, no one but you has ever been inside, yet everything is gone..."
Could it be that these things suddenly grew wings and flew away on their own? Is that what you think?
Raymond was speechless, but he still insisted that he had nothing to do with it.
Glenn sneered, "Mayor, I think he's the one who embezzled from his own post. Wasn't this Saint-Face Auction House founded by Raymond himself?"
He was in charge of all the facilities and personnel inside. Now that such a big thing has happened, how can he not bear any responsibility?
The reason I put these items up for auction here is because of my trust in you; otherwise, I would never have handed them over to Ford Raymond!
And he did this precisely because he took advantage of your trust in him…
Raymond immediately glared at Glenn, "Glenn, you son of a bitch..."
Donald stared coldly at Raymond. "Enough, you two. Stop fighting like dogs in front of me."
Glenn, I know you suffered a significant loss this time, but please give me some face and say less for now!
Glenn gritted his teeth and said, "This isn't just about the big loss. You know, I brought that thing with me this time!"
That thing, the Chinese are searching for it all over the world! Needless to say, everyone knows it's priceless!
