Chapter 932
I felt my head spinning. "I don''t know much about clothing brands, so I don''t usually pay attention to
these things."
“This man and Keith are of the same level." Heidi smiled. "A tycoon like Mr. Grant usually wears
clothes that cost more than millions."
I had never closely examined the brand of clothes Theo usually wore. I said helplessly, “His clothes
are usually custom-made. Besides, he has been wearing the same color for many years. Nothing
seems special about the clothes he wears."
He always wore ck, and there was not a single exception.
Heidi gasped. "Custom-made ones are the expensive ones, okay? The designer''sbor cost alone
is an astronomical amount. His clothes are designed by a renowned designer, hand-tailored by the
best tailor, and are no doubt the only ones of their kind out there. There won''t be a second piece.
You’ll be horrified by how expensive it is."
I pursed my lips and did not say anything else.

The clothes we wore on weekdays were regrly sent over by Theo. I supposed they were all
custom-made. I was not exactly particr about clothes and was fine with them as long as they
were presentable to wear when I went out. Hence, I never really studied these things.
The sandalwood box was eventually given to that bidder, but I did not think that it was a pity.
In my opinion, that box was not worth this much.
I asked Keith to get the man''s contact details. If he was curious about what was in the box, he
would agree to try and open it too.
The following items that were up for auction were all jewelry pieces. I was not interested and
nned to leave.
Heidi had no ns on leaving yet, so Keith and I left first.
After leaving the banquet hall, a man called out to us.
It was the man who got the sandalwood box. He walked up to me. "Hello, Miss. Do I have the honor
to have a drink with you?"
I nced at Keith and figured he must have told this guy that I had the other box.
Keith nodded to indicate that I could ept the invitation.
I looked at the man and asked, "What’s your name, Sir?"
He replied with a smile, "Jackie Kingsman. You can
call me Jackie."
I nodded. "Hello, Jackie. I’m Wanda Lane. It''s nice to meet you."
Jackie made a polite gesture. "Ladies first, Ms. Lane."
There was a refreshment area inside the hotel. Keith and I followed him there.
He had probably informed the staff in advance because the waiter came to serve us tea as soon as
we took our seats.
Jackie said with a smile, "Salt City''s local tea is really famous and I''ve always wanted to try it."
I did not say anything. Keith looked mildly at him. He said in a deep and low voice, "Mr. Jackie, why
don''t you get straight to the point?"
Jackie nced at him, then looked at me and said, "I heard that Ms. Lane holds a box that looks
exactly like the one I got during the auction just now. I''m curious a s to what''s inside the box, so I
would like to put both boxes together to see if I can really open it."
I pursed my lips. "My sentiments exactly, Mr. Jackie. But I left the box at home. If you’re free, you
can take the box to my house to try it out."
"I''m d you agree, Ms. Lane." Jackie took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "I got mine from an
auction. Did you get yours from an auction too, Ms. Lane?"
I shook my head. "My box didn''te from an auction. An elder gave it to me."
Jackie''s pupils froze for a moment but his expression quickly returned to normal. "You must be from
a prominent family, then, Ms. Lane. An ordinary family would not be able to afford to hire a
distinguished carpenter to build this box.”
After a pause, he continued, "But although I''m not from Salt City, I know a little about this city. It
seems like there’s no distinguished family here with the surname Lane."
I smiled slightly and nced at Keith.
He immediately took the hint and said to Jackie," You''ve got it wrong, Mr. Jackie. My madames
from an ordinary family. Besides, we still don’t know i f her box and your box are really twins. Since
both of you have agreed to give it a try, let''s keep in touch by phone as it’s gettingte. We should
be going back now."
Jackie frowned and said to me, "You haven''t even taken a sip of the tea.”
