Chapter 448
In the car, Mick told Irene, "There's going to be a lot of expensive antiques, jewelry, and other items at
the auction. Tell me if you see anything you like, and I'll get it for you."
He then added, "I don't mean anything by this. You were Yvaine's daughter- in-law, and I already think
of you as my daughter."
Irene smiled. "I'm not really interested in all that stuff."
"I see... Actually, I collect old books and antiques, and Yvaine used to attend these auctions with me..."
Misery showed on his face once he mentioned Yvaine, and Irene changed the subject. "Are the people
attending rich?”
Average Joes would not be able to afford anything from such auctions after all.
"Yeah," Mick replied. “They are expecting rich people from across the world, n
Irene nodded-such auctions were a pastime for the wealthy.
They happened to arrive at the auction center just then, and they saw the many luxury cars parked
outside.
Irene was almost able to recognize most, since many of them were limited editions which Isaac owned
as well.
He never drove them much, however, but it was probably the same principle as women buying more
clothes than they needed.
Mick led Irene towards the checkpoint at the entrance. Since he had been a frequent guest, he entered
easily.
He told them that Irene was his daughter, and since he brought his own daughter here before as well,
the people at the checkpoints were respectful toward Mick.
They were clearly acquainted, too...
"You could have made it in without me, couldn't you?" Irene was certain of it despite asking.
"Guess the cat's out of the bag,” Mick chuckled. “Sorry, but you looked like you were tired, so I'm
bringing you out to get some rest and relaxation. Erin really went abroad, though... I asked her to look
for the place where Yvaine was buried."
Irene told him, "You won't ever find her if he doesn't want you to, y'know."
Mick turned to raise a brow at her. "You really know him, I see.’
"More or less-especially that temper of his," she replied.
Soon, they arrived at their seats.
Many people had already arrived.
Then, Mick suddenly said, “Erin isn't my biological daughter."
Irene was certainly stunned as he told her that out of the blue, her bright eyes widening over her face
mask as she stared at him, blinking.
Mick sighed. "It's perhaps my greatest regret in life, but we couldn't have a child. She's sick, and I have
a missing kidney.”
While the doctors had told him that he could have a child, Yvaine's body could not.
"We adopted Erin from an orphanage and raised her like our own," Mick finished.
Irene did remember Yvaine telling her that her daughter, Erin Gooding, was already twenty, even
though she was with Mick for less time than that.
The numbers did not match... but it was because Erin was adopted.
Mick then said, "Since she left to find Yvaine's grave, there's a chance he might run into Isaac. Aren't
you afraid?"
Irene knew what he was getting at. "He has the right to choose his own lover.”
She reared her head-she had her pride too.She loved him, and it hurt her to leave him.
However, she did not want him to give him so much because of Tommy.
Since he did not love her, she was willing to give him freedom instead of using their son to coerce
him.It was one of the reasons she left him.
Mick looked at her admiringly then. "You're as stubborn as you're strong.”
Irene smiled. "I'll take that as a compliment."
"It is... But I guess I was different,” Mick sighed. "I seized what I loved because I was possessive, even
if she didn't love me.”
Irene, who actually knew how Yvaine felt, said, "Maybe she did."
Mick smiled and simply dismissed it as Irene trying to sweet-talk him.
While they were conversing, the auction was now fully seated.
That was when Irene unwitting looked ahead, and saw the man sitting in Seat 33.Her face fell right
then!
