A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 191

After the woman leaves in anger, John brings a glass of champagne to Lily and says, "You're too impulsive. If you can't endure it when you're doing business, you will fail. Doesn't Louis teach you that?"

Lily takes the champagne and snorts, "I just don't like the way she looks."

"I think I went too far just now." She gets a little regretful when she rethinks about it, "Is she important? Will she affect your business? Why didn't you stop me?"

Three hard questions smash towards John.

John smiles lightly and says indifferently, "It's her honor to talk to us. With me here, you can say or do whatever you want. I'll support you."

Lily feels a little flushed. She drinks a mouthful of champagne and looks away.

There are many of John's acquaintances, each of whom comes up to greet him. Smiling all the time, Lily feels her face stiffen. When she finally sits down and catches her breath, the auction begins.

There are more than 30 items donated by the upper-class or celebrities. No matter at what prices the items are auctioned, the money will be used to build rural schools, medical vehicles, and so on.

For the sake of their own fame, some people would pay a lot for an item, heating the whole auction up.

"The next item is the yellow diamond necklace donated by Mr. Addison Baird."

The emcee opens the box, in which lies a yellow diamond necklace on top of the high-grade velvet, dazzling and attractive.

Many women cry out in amazement at the scene.

Lily looks at the necklace and understands their feelings.

Yellow diamonds are common, but the purity of this yellow diamond on this necklace is extremely high, and the grain is very large. It will show great luxury on a banquet or something else.

Seeing her staring at the necklace, John asks, "Do you like it?"

"I'm not interested in jewelry." Lily says that she thinks it is good-looking, but she isn't very interested. "Moreover, with such a large yellow diamond, the starting bid must be very high."

At this time, the emcee says, "The starting price of this Passionate is 30 million yuan!"

Lily almost spits out the champagne in surprise. She wipes her mouth with a tissue. "I feel that this charity dinner is no different from the ordinary auction. It's all about making money."

Just after she speaks, John raises his hand. His voice is calm and penetrating. "50 million!"

Lily immediately stares at him, "Are you crazy?"

"Just 50 million," John smiles.

"I have said I don't want it!"

"I'm not forcing you to take it. If you don't want it, just smash it into pieces, so that I won't feel uncomfortable seeing others wearing it."

"..."

A deep male voice comes from the right, "60 million."

The familiar voice stiffens Lily, and John frowns.

After a few seconds, Lily looks to the right.

Her gaze pierces through the crowd and she sees the man shrouded in the spotlight with his cold features and scarlet lips, sitting quietly in a wheelchair, his legs covered with a thin blanket.

Why is he here?

Lily sees that there are many people sitting around Louis, as if they are discussing about his behavior. She subconsciously wants to get up and go over, but she sees a slender figure sitting beside Louis, very close to him, as if she is talking to him.

It is Stella.

Lily sits back down, suppressing the discomfort in her mind.

John sees all of her subtle movements. When he calls out again, his voice is cold and deep, "70 million."

Louis continues, "80 million."

"This is too boring." John glances at Louis and smiles, "One hundred million."

The emcee's hands are trembling.

It is just a charity dinner where a necklace is sold for such a high price!

"Mr. Dawn has offered 100 million yuan. May I ask if Mr. Smith is still bidding?" The emcee looks at Louis.
