The Mafia Heiress's Comeback: She's More Than You Think novel Chapter 253

Chapter 253 Small Gambling

The crowd wasn’t exactly impressed with Maten

Antiques weren’t something most people cared above, especially the younger generation Familles like Conn’s, who had generations of antique expertise under the belts, were practically onkend of

In stark contrast, Dunn’s reputation had the crowd completely in his corner

“This girl’s skills might not be anything spedal, but look at the man. His taste is on a whole different level Everything he wears screams rare and expense

“That emerald pendant is just like the one from the news four years up it’s practically identical to the real thing!”

“And that vintage ring? That’s definitely the real deal.”

“Don’t forget about the pocket watch. It’s clearly old, though I can’t place it. My eyes aren’t sharp enough”

“He’s probably some top–tier antiques expert from out of state. No way we have stuff like that here in Slatinia Pieces like those only show up at big auctions”

The majority of the people in the shop were seasoned antique professionals, well–trained and with sharp eyes that missed nothing. Their praise for Dunn was surprisingly effusive.

And with each compliment, Dunn’s pride grew a little more.

After all, he was the heir to Ozel’s most prestigious family, known for their unmatched knowledge of antiques. Visiting a developing place like Voutsas felt like a city elite paying a visit to the countryside.

“It’s getting late. Let’s begin,” Dunn said, flashing a confident smile.

“Sure, let’s start,” Maren responded with an easy nod

The two approached the display shelf at the same time, each taking a position on opposite sides to avoid crowding.

The shelf itself was crammed with hundreds of items, a disorganized mess. Some might call it a varied collection, but to others, it looked like pure chaos.

“Finding something good here seems impossible. What are they even thinking?”

“Yeah, these items have been picked over by regulars a dozen times. Nobody wanted them. If they find something valuable, it’ll mean they’re sharper than the rest of us.”

“The girl’s too young to know much about this. But the guy? It’s hard to say. He’s got this certain presence. Plus, the stuff he’s wearing? Definitely top–tier. He might see something none of us do.”

The crowd murmured as they watched, most not believing anyone could unearth treasure from such a disorganized shelf.

But if there was anyone who could, they were sure it would be Lunn.

Dunn stood tall, a satisfied grin tugging at his lips as he soaked in the praise. It only inflated his ego more, though he didn’t take any of it seriously. To him, these people were amateurs–he was the expert here. While they couldn’t find anything valuable, he was confident he could.

“Maren, you can do this,” Lucien muttered, offering a quiet cheer for Maren. He didn’t know much about antiques, but he was hoping she could pull off a win.

If Maren walked away with a treasure from Dunn’s collection, Lucien believed he’d easily overshadow Higgs.

Both Maren and Dunn studied the items, their eyes scanning quickly. They picked things up, examined them briefly, and moved on to the next, barely pausing.

“They’re moving too fast. Are they really looking at anything?” someone asked, confused.

“Yeah, no tools, no magnifying glasses. They’re just using their eyes, and they’re quick about it!”
