Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1359

"Who are you perhaps referring to, Mr. Jensen? Our auction house values reputation and authenticity above all else. There's no way something like this could've happened," the manager replied.

Brooklynn had just walked up. When she heard Hank had gone straight to the manager to report her, her expression darkened.

What was Hank's problem? It was fine if he didn't want to talk; why would he go as far as to report her?
